Dec 10, 2008 Trying to get GIMP installed on a MAC operating system (OS X Tiger). Just downloaded it and after install it said that I needed Apple's X11.

DL the Gimp Help files for Mac OS X (same link as above).

DL the FX Foundry filters: <http://gimpfx-foundry.sourceforge.net/>

Unzip package and copy the contents to:

/Users/<your-username>/.gimp-2.6/scripts

The folder “.gimp-2.6″ in your user folder is a hidden folder, one easy

method to open this folder is to launch the “Terminal” from inside the Mac

“Utilities” folder and type “ls -a” to “see” the invisible folders inside

your user folder, type “open .gimp-2.6″ (without quotes) to open the

gimp-2.6 folder. Inside this you will see the “scripts” folder.

Copy the contents of the downloaded fx-foundry zip file into the scripts

folder of this “hidden” folder.

Launch The Gimp.

In the left-hand column, go down to “Folders”

Click small triangle “arrow-head” to left of “Folders” icon

In list below this, click “Scripts”

To the right in dialog you should see the header “Script-Fu Folders”

Below this a row of seemingly “grayed-out) icons

Click the left-most one (looks lick a document page with a down-turned

corner)

A insertion point should appear in field to the right of this.

Type “/Users/<your-username>/.gimp-2.6/Scripts” (without quotes)

Click folder to the right of this text entry field.

Its kind of odd but clicking that folder icon opens the hidden folder and

enters the path to the Scripts folder into the Folder list below in the

dialog (where you need it to actually go). Click OK in the dialog to

dismiss it.

You should now see a new menu, “FX-Foundry” and your new filters will be

available to enjoy.

I’m relaying these steps because:

If the other Mac isn't using macOS High Sierra or later, choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Earlier versions of macOS don't work with APFS-formatted volumes. I’ve written quite a bit about the not-quite-so-new Apple File System (APFS) format that Apple adopted for both iOS and—with macOS 10.13 High Sierra—for SSDs that are a Mac's boot volume. At last my MacBook Pro 7.1 mid 2010 is creating a bootable external drive with “Install macOS High Sierra” from the App Store, so that I can upgrade the internal disk to WD Blue 250GB SSD.

a) I couldn’t find them for Mac OS X in a search engine (I did look).

b) Its fresh in my mind (installed them today) :-)

c) They work just as well for the Mac as for Linux and Windows, Yay!

d) Installing them on the Mac was a tad difficult in comparison to other

platforms (Gimp couldn’t see the “hidden” user folder without being told

how to find it).

P.S.: On Mac OS X Lion, the “gimp-2.6″ “doesn’t exist”, you should use “/Users/YourUsername/Library/Application Support/Gimp/Scripts” instead.

This guide will guide you through installing GIMP on mac OS X 10.5.x with easy-to-follow and clear instructions.

Insert your OS X install disk and locate the Optional Installs package. Double-click it.

An installer window will appear. Continue using the buttons at the bottom until you reach the installation type step. When you have reached this step, expand the Applications subsection in the tree by clicking on the triangle next to it, and check element X11. Once this is done, click on the Update button to continue, and perform installation.

Next, you have to update X11. Go to MacOSForge / XQuartz and get the latest Version of XQuartz.

After downloading it, run the install package and follow the instructions

Install Gimp On Mac

Then, download GIMP from the Wilber Loves Apples file downloads. Scroll down to the MacOS 10.4 Tiger subsection and pick either the PPC or Intel build depending on your computer. (If you do not know which one to download, select About this mac from the Apple menu)

Once downloading is done, double-click the dmg file. Drag and drop the GIMP icon to your Applications folder.

You can now eject the disk image by dragging it to the trash. You can also delete the dmg if you wish.

There’s one small operation we can now perform to make it easier to use (note that this is not necessary). Doing this will save you many unnecessary double-clicks during editing by not requiring you to activate GIMP windows before you can click on them. While Gimp and X11 are closed, open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, and paste the following commands in it and press enter:

A few more things to note:

Gimp For Mac Os X

Menus in Gimp will not appear at the top of the screen like regular OS X menus, but in every window instead (this happens because Gimp comes from Linux where menus are like that. A non-X11 version of Gimp, when it comes, should have the menus at the right location.)
When you open GIMP, there will be 2 icons in the dock: Gimp itself and X11. You can mostly ignore X11, but just be aware that Gimp requires it to remain open while it runs to work.
Do not quit Gimp from the dock, instead quit from the File menu or by using the keyboard shortcut. This is one more limitation caused by X11.
Keyboard shortcuts by default use the Control key instead of mac standard Command. You can make it use Command by following the instructions in this thread.GIMP can now be opened by double-clicking on its icon in your applications folder! Note that the first time you open it, there will be a slight delay before anything appears on screen.Happy Gimping ðŸ™‚
