md5 <path/to/retropie-4.5.1-rpi2_rpi3.img.gz>
Right, it's not downloading properly to my mac, how do I fix this?

What do you mean by that ? You get an error trying to download it or why is not downloading properly ?
-
@mitu I may have misunderstood but I get two different checksum results so I'm assuming the file I have downloaded is not what I should have. It wasn't a .gz tho, it's an .img file.
-
How did you download the file ? Using a browser or other program ?
-
@mitu I clicked on it in Safari, then dragged in into a folder from downloads
-
Strange, if I download from Safari, I get prompted to save an
.img.gzfile
What size is the file ?
-
@mitu Ah, I was just clicking on the button rather than right clicking..... let me try that instead

That's exactly what I did.
-
@mitu That's very odd..... I'm trying with the .gz file in etcher now
-
On macOS, I use Apple Pi Baker to write images on the sdcard.

@mitu Thank you for all your help, it seems to be working now!
