After installing the .dmg via Intellij website, when opening the IntelliJ Idea program, the icon bounces then disappears.

I was curious if anyone else has encountered the problem or would be able to help me get this installation going.

After trying to run it as an executable, it fed me back:

It was wrong InteliJ IDEA installation in my case. Installing correct version as per my chipset helped solve it.

Do you have android studio installed? And what is the version of MacOS?
