cant open flux mac

I'd just like to add, if you're downloading the .zip folder, do not unzip it, it actually does that for you on a mac, and it just (usually) does a great job of... oh I don't want to say it, doing the correct thing, when you double click the download. You can double click either in the browser, or in the downloads folder in the dock!

So what happens when you click on the f.lux settings menu to the left of your system clock, any errors? See the images here for where I mean: https://justgetflux.com/news/pages/macquickstart/
Anything else we should know about your system?
-
What are you using to unzip it? Try something else?
After you double-click it, is it listed in Activity Monitor? Are there any error messages in Console?

That can be a symptom of it not getting the right permissions when it gets unzipped. It's a known bug in JDownloader download manager for example. You haven't told us what you're using to download and unzip.
Try downloading it again directly with Safari. If it doesn't unzip automatically, right-click and choose "Open With > Archive Utility".

Glad it worked out, I'm sure you'll enjoy it!
Just out of curiosity, can I ask how you were downloading and unzipping it before, that it didn't work?
