I'm aware this question has already been asked numerous times in various forms, but I'm not finding any solutions that work for me. "No python support detected" in QGIS.
Issue:
Tried:
1. Updating my .bash_profile with the following, per the solution in the comments to this question: Python plugins not available, OS X 10.10.5, QGIS 2.8.4, which did not work:
Edit: Adding those lines ^ to my bash profile (and not undoing it when it didn't work for me) caused me issues later on. When I tried to use Python 2 I would get an error that my PYTHONPATH was set to QGIS Python 3. I forgot that I had made this change, so I was baffled for quite a while until I remembered. facepalm
2. A commenter on this question: Enabling (python) plugins on QGIS3 (Linux)? suggested installing qgis-python but I have been unable to find this package to try this solution.
Versions:
macOS Sierra 10.12.6, QGIS 3.10, Python 2.7 (original OS install)
Update 1:
Per this thread on a QGIS Github forum, I think my problem may be my Mac OS. I didn't realize that the version of QGIS I installed (3.10) is for Mac High Sierra 10.13 and newer. I only have Sierra 10.12. I'm going to install a newer MacOS and see if that works. Will post an update...
Update 2:
Yes! Installing a newer MacOS worked! I'm going to add it as an answer. Hopefully this will help someone else with an older MacOS who didn't catch the install requirement.
