Hi Taylor, Are you able to share a few details?
1. What are the contents of the file ~/Library/Mnemosyne/config.py? Specifically the last two lines relating to latex and dvipng 2. What is the location of your LaTeX installation? There are a few ways to install and I'm hoping to replicate the conditions under which you experience this issue For now, I'm trying with /usr/local/bin/latex as the path, which is the same as the default installer, and using "brew cask install basictex" from https://brew.sh On Sunday, March 29, 2020 at 2:50:26 PM UTC-7, Devin Howard wrote: > > Sorry for the late reply here.
