Due to security restrictions on Java - specifically on macOS - there is occasionally a need to permit the Blackbird editor to launch.
Go to your system preferences
Access security and privacy pane
If the last app attempted to open was the Blackbird launcher then it should be listed on this list
Select "Open anyway" - this should then launch.
Note: if you do not have permissions to access this menu or do not have this option, please contact your system administrator
