Are you using the python launcher? Or are you opening a terminal and then
typing 'python myscript.py'?

Tell me if the following steps work for you:

1) Open the terminal - you can find it under Applications/Utiltiies (or if
you just type 'terminal' in spotlight). You should see something like:
Last login: Tue Mar 6 17:21:36 on console
Welcome to Darwin!
ibook:~ Alex$

2) Type 'cd name/of/folder' and hit enter to move into the folder that
contains your Python script.

3) Type 'python myscript.py' and hit enter to run the script called
'myscript.py'.
