I just dowloaded R and Studio on my laptop. Whenever I open the app a popup comes up telling me I should download Rosetta for it to work properly but there's no instalment procedure available, there's only a link to an apple website that tells me how to download it on my Mac but the instructions are unclear. They talk about a terminal that I don't know how to open on my laptop so I haven't been able to install Rosetta. How can I do that?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.5
This Rosetta is only available on Apple Silicon Computers M1 / M2 and M3 computers running the ARAMS Based Chip
If you need to install Rosetta on your Mac
If you need to install Rosetta on your Mac
Terminal Command
softwareupdate --install-rosetta
There are three categories / types of software that can run on the Operations System.
Only Intel Binary Code. This software will invoke Rosetta 2 to translate the Intel binaries so the operating system can understand and execute the Application. The Applications must be 64 Bit to function on Big Sur, Monterey and Ventura / Sonoma
Universal Binary Software. It contains Both Intel and M1/ M2 / M3 ARMs binary code and refer to ( Universal 2 ) When the user installs a 64 bit Application that contains Both Intel and M1 / M2/ M3 ARMs binaries - depending on factors, the Operating System may or may not invoke Rosetta 2.
“ Apple Silicon “ Checking in System Information >> Applications >> as of now, only see One Application classified as Apple Silicon and that is “ Rosetta 2 Updater “.
That would make perfect sense since.
It is specifically designed to operate only on Apple Silicon M1 / M2 / M3 ARMs based computers
To get to the Terminal Application
in Finder >> GO >> Utilities >> Terminal
Copy and paste
softwareupdate --install-rosetta
Then press the Return key
