Problem Installing Sleepyhead - Amishboy51 - 03-14-2019

Sorry for my incompetence; I've been attempting to install Sleepyhead 1.1.0 on my Mac, but I'm unable to understand the installation directions.

I'm trying to follow the "Beginner's Guide to Installing Sleepyhead," which says that after downloading, it should open as a "Volume." Then you drag the icon to the Applications folder; after it's copied, drag it to the Dock for launching.  


Well, I manage to download Sleepyhead for Mac; then I see a white box, with a sheep wearing a CPAP in the upper left, and the words SleepyHead beneath it. Is this a "volume"?

I can drag it to the Applications folder,  but I'm unable to drag it to the Dock. However, if I double-click on Sleepyhead in the Applications folder, it now appears in the Dock. Same thing?

Finally, when I open the Sleepyhead app, I get a "Select Profile" box, with Sleepmeister and my name (open), etc. Can anyone take me though these steps?

Thanks in advance.

And, upon further review, it appears that I've apparently installed SleepyHead. 

However, rather than now being asked to "create" a profile, I have profiles already listed for myself and Sleepmeister (probably because I installed SleepyHead previously, even though I never figured out how to use it?). 

Anyway, I'm unable to input anything with the keyboard, including "Search," or to select my Profile; the Select Profile box just seems to be frozen.

if you can click one of the profiles it should be blue background with white text, then click the welcome tab in the welcome tab you should be able to import your data

Thank you; I was able to complete the process and view results. Now I just have to figure out what all the data means!  Rolleyes
