Mac OS Sierra
PsychoPy version 1.90.1 - standalone
I am a complete beginner with Psychopy. I have installed the standalone version and the tools that were prompted on initial startup.
I cannot get a simple experiment to run. Using builder, I have created a text component. When I click run, I get the following message:
PyschoPy output

Additionally, ctypes.util.find_library() did not manage to locate a library called ‘/Applications/PsychoPy2.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.7/site-packages.zip/soundfile/_soundfile_data/libsndfile.dylib’
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling PsychoPy. I’ve also tried creating different components, such as images and movies. The same thing happens.
I’d hugely appreciate any help.
