</div>My advice? I've never had good luck trying to "update" the default<br>
Python that comes with the Mac. I'd recommend just leaving it alone and<br>
using it, unless there's some reason you absolutely need 2.7.<br>
<br>
It is safe to build (and run) a non-Framework build of other versions of<br>
Python in various places on your Mac, but life gets complicated if you<br>
attempt to "install" it.<br>
