Encountering an error when starting a new capture on Mac OSX

0

I am encountering an error "You didn't specify an interface on which to capture packets" when clicking on the Start new Live capture.

How do I setup a new Interface? I might be missing something obvious.

Regards

Can you capture by clicking Start from the capture interfaces window? (Capture > Interfaces - click Start next to the interface that appears to be seeing traffic." If no interfaces appear, then you can't capture traffic.
