I am trying to create an automator application using a script written in python 3.5 but it won't run, i believe Mac has built in python 2.7 which automator is referring to. That's what i do; Automator >> file >> new >> application >> run shell script >> usr/bin/python ,then i just paste my python script in there and save. any idea how i can tell automator to change the path so i can use python 3.5 rather than the built in one?

Thanks
Farid

Hello and welcome.

Apple OS X still only includes Python 2.7 through 10.11.x El Capitan. To run Python 3.5, you would need to download and install the newer version.
