[Python] How do I get past this error in installing pyautogui as a third party module in Mu...

I am on the final chapter of Automate the Boring Stuff with Python- Chapter 20 begins by installing and importing pyautogui, and I have been unable to accomplish this. I HAVE been able to install the module on my Mac I have NOT been able to add this as a Third Party Module in Mu Editor. Here is the error I get when I try to add this as a module in the Mu Editor:

I have been able to successfully install pyautogui on my Mac using: pip3 install pyautogui

I am using python3.9 I am on macOS Sequia 15.3.1

But when I attempt to add this as a Third Party Package to Mu Editor- it exits with the error above.

I have scoured the internet in search for answers and have tried:

1. restarting
2. uninstalling and reinstalling both pyautogui and pyobjc
3. installing pyautogui as admin
4. Following the url to https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.htmlm(but I did not understand this page to be honest).

I am expecting the install to complete without error so that I can import it in REPL and practice with pyautogui.

I am particularly confused about why it says PyObjC: Need at least Python 3.9, even though I am running Python 3.9.6.

Please help!
