Hi Molly, (Thanks for your help Christina!) It will probably be easier to create a link to FSLeyes, instead of editing your search path. Type the following commands into a terminal: cd /usr/local/fsl/bin sudo mv FSLeyes.app FSLeyes.app_old sudo cp /path/to/where/you/have/unzipped/FSLeyes.app . If you are using FSL 5.0.10, then fsleyes should now start working. However, if you are using an older version of FSL, you will need to do a little more work: cd /usr/local/fsl/bin sudo ln -s FSLeyes.app/Contents/MacOS/fsleyes ./fsleyes Cheers, Paul On 9 August 2017 at 14:04, Chr.
