Pycharm will not open
I am on a Mac version 11.6.6 and have the latest python downloaded 3.10.4 and the latest version of PyCharm and when I install, it seems like its going to open. I copy it to my applications and as soon as I try to open PyCharm the icon will bounce once and then not open. I have uninstalled and installed at least 5 times. I even tried to download older versions of python and nothing will work. I am not even getting an error message, it simply wont open and I have been doing this for an hour and a half. I thought it may be because my Mac was not up to date, so I even updated my software and deleted everything and then installed it all back and it just simply will not open.

What can I do? It will bounce up like this and then does nothing.
Try starting it from the terminal https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/working-with-the-ide-features-from-command-line.html
Does it show any errors in the terminal?
I have tried that as well, still does not open. No error message
Check if idea.log has any errors. You can find it in the logs folder https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/directories-used-by-the-ide-to-store-settings-caches-plugins-and-logs.html#logs-directory
I am not sure how to check that I put in the example on the link you sent in my terminal with my version and it says no file or directory exists
You don't need to run anything in the terminal. You can locate the logs manually using Finder. It should be under /Library/Logs/JetBrains/<product><version>
Is this under the PyCharm contents? I do not have a library folder i have lib and no logs, sorry I am new to this
No, it's not inside the PyCharm installation folder.
Use Finder's Go menu -> Go to Folder..., paste the path and hit Enter
