If you do the suggestions in the error message, does that allow you to get further in the install process?
Same issue here. I followed the steps in the error message but got a different error with no suggested follow up steps:

It looks like you previously had a Nix installation. You could try out our Sequoia repair tool to see if that fixes it: https://determinate.systems/posts/nix-support-for-macos-sequoia/
Otherwise, you may need to follow the upstream uninstall instructions to clean up before attempting to install again: https://nix.dev/manual/nix/stable/installation/uninstall.html#macos
If you have any further trouble, please open another issue and I'll help there (so we don't clutter this issue with unrelated problems)! Thank you!
