I love Easy abc, a simple and very effective program but I am having one or two problems. I am running Easy abc 1.3.6.3 on Macintosh El Capitan. There doesn't seem to be a more up to date version (1.3.7) for Mac. The version I have is giving me several problems 1. The tempo and position adjustments along the top of the screen are scrambled, don't appear correctly so are unusable. 2. The "open recent files" doesn't appear in the open file menu (strange it used to) and 3. If I set it to print 1 copy the printer goes crazy and keeps printing copies until I switch it off. Has anyone any ideas?

I used ABC for years on a PC but now I'm on a mac. I've downloaded the most recent version but have no idea how to run it. I admit to being naive regarding python. I would love if there is an easy to digest document on next steps once downloaded for a python moron.

EasyABC will not work on Mac with Catalina. There is a beta version of EasyABC out of the UK (not from SourceForge who seems to have given up on EasyABC) The UK Beta version can be used to write, edit and/or print music; but it will not play. We need a Mac wizard to develop software that will operate with Catalina.Fortunately I still have my old Mac, running El Capitan.
What version of MacOS are you running?

Have no idea how to upgrad Easy ABC for new Apple Operating System (Catalina) Your instructions are mysterious and not helpful for a novice user.
