Seasonal Adjustment Problem

Installation and Setup
1

Hello, I’m having troubles with the seasonal adjustment function in Dynare.
When I run

clear;
load('accidents.mat');
A=dseries(hwydata(:,1),'1992Q1');
o=x13(A);
o.run();

I get the following error message

Error using select_x13_binary
Can't find X13 binary

Error in x13/run (line 26)
x13b = select_x13_binary();

Error in indexing (line 72)
                    feval(S(1).subs, o);

Error in test13x (line 13)
o.run();

The attached replicates the problem. I’m using Matlab R2022b (update 3) on a Mac
Thanks in advance

Could X13 binary warning after fresh install of Dynare - #4 by jack be the problem?

Hi Johannes, thanks. I had come across this topic already (X13 binary warning after fresh install of Dynare - #4 by jack), but the problem seems to be different [Btw, the second link shared by @wmutschl in that topic seem to be broken.]

I also found this topic, but wasn’t successful. I’ve followed the following steps as suggested by @wmutschl:

This is what I get in my terminal:

Thanks again for your help!
