hmmm. I cannot seem to get the code to work on my mac. Can anyone assist? It might be related to the python my computer is using?

Now I have this error message on PyCharm:
/Users/student/PycharmProjects/youtube/venv/bin/python "/Users/student/Desktop/youtube vid/instagram.py"
File "/Users/student/Desktop/youtube vid/instagram.py", line 1
import selenium from webdriver

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Process finished with exit code 1

sir its from selenium import webdriver

How do you add the comments.txt, config.json and hashtags.txt to the code? I am receiving the following error: FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: './instaRes/config.json'

I am able to login, but I am kicked out right away. Thank you

Everything works for me except the actual liking part. The program opens up the picture and never actually likes it

its worked owww really supwe

can you do it without needing a password, just by username?
