Problem description: I have a command (yt-dlp) that I run in the terminal and it works. I want to run that command, in my user context, every five minutes. I tried first with crontab but for some reason my crontab isn't saving - macOS always thinks I have no crontab and starts a "new file" for me that gets saved nowhere as far as I can tell. Then I tried yeeting my command into automator and I got an error, guessing because it's running not in my user context or something (or maybe cause I installed yt-dlp using pip or something). This is the command I'm running: code:
Attempted fixes: Tried crontab -e multiple times... then I also tried automator and got an error. Recent changes: No, brand new thing -- Operating system: MacOS Sonoma 14.3 System specs: MacBook Pro M1 16gb RAM Location: USA I have Googled and read the FAQ: Yes. When I google it, it seems like crontab SHOULD work, so I don't know why it's not. That's the first problem, and ideally I'd like to solve it that way because I'm more familiar with crontab than I am with any other thing.
