Hello everyone,
I have MacBook Air m2 chip and get the error "the application can't be open" when I try to install the application. I tried to show package content >> contents >> macOS >> control + click open the file but no use..
May you please help!
MacBook Air (M2)
In that case, you shouldn't have to do anything but dbl-click the .pkg file. No need to control-click it or go into Contents.
If you have an antivirus app or heaven forbid CleanMyMac installed, try installing them while in Safe Mode.
Q - " I suppose it’s compatible since it was already installed on my old mac "
A - Applications installed and used on Old Mac does not necessarily translate to working in Ventura macOS 13.2.1
As it stands now, without actual naming the offending Application - this will be a Guess Work affair going almost nowhere
I suppose it’s compatible since it was already installed on my old mac
Did your old Mac have an M2 chip and running Ventura?
why wouldn’t it be if it’s a pkg file? 😢
I don’t know why that would make any difference. They can become corrupt and they can also be incompatible with an OS version.
Which application? It sounds like it is corrupted or not compatible.

I’m sorry I wasn’t clear. It’s Adobe applications Illustrator and Photoshop.
Both of them have the same problem.
I redownloaded the files again but it made no difference.

Best I observe only.
FWIW, Ventura requires the October 2022 or later releases of Photoshop (version 24) and Ilustrator (version 27)
Yes, I’m already trying to install these versions.
