Open your Applications Folder (click in on a blank space of the desktop and hit Shift-CMD-A) and drag the Maxima Icon from Maxima-5.43.0 folder to the Applications Folder, but don’t double click it! Instead, right click (or two finger click, or ctrl click) on the Maxima icon in your Applications Folder and select open from the resulting popup menu. Now go to your Downloads folder and double click on the downloaded file: Maxima-5.43.0-VTK-macOS.dmg.

That older version stopped working properly with macOS version 10.15 “Catalina” (due to the end of support for 32 bit applications I think) prompting this update.

My earlier macOS installation is detailed at the bottom of this page. If you’re looking for Windows, see My Windows Installation. I’ll try, but can’t promise, to address the issues as they arise. If you run into trouble with this, leave a comment. Please be patient while we work together to make this as easy as possible. This guide has been tested on In tel and Apple M1 processors, with macOS versions up to Monterey 12.0.1. This is my updated experimental installation guide for macOS, Decemupdate.
