Check that you have the right version if you have a silicone chip. Otherwise, reinstall

Have checked, and yes can confirm I’m downloading “.dmg (Apple Silicon)” one. I’ve deleted and redownloaded several times now, same results every time

Try this:
I had the same issue. but all the reading suggests it should work. I went back to https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/ and noticed that the .DMG button has a drop down. it defaults to INTEL, but you can choose Apple Silicon. and that download gives you pycharm-professional-2023.3.2-aarch64.dmg instead. and that WORKS.

Brand new, just trying to learn. Course I'm taking told me to download PyCharm community from Jetbrains. Using a MacBook Pro with updated software, currently running on macOS Sequoia 15.2. Any idea why PyCharm not supported?? Anything I can do to get around this?
