Tried installing & starting idle.

Answer 1

I would try to uninstall and then again install the program as this helped me in most of the cases. Also i would save my codes on some outer device as they, if they are in python file, might disappear.

Also you can try using python command prompt (never actually tried this) and manually install/reinstall it. You can also use it to check if it's ok and installed where it should be.

Try this but I don't work with mac so I can't help you more if it wont help.
