Wrong compiler version error when importing Tivaware examples into CCS6 on Mac

Whenever I import a Tivaware example (such as usb_dev_serial) into CCS I receive the following error: 

   This project was created using a version of compiler that is not currently installed: 5.2.6 [ARM]

How can I get the Tivaware examples to build and run on my Tiva-C launchpad?

Here's my setup: 

CCS version 6.1.3.00033

TivaWare for EK-TM4C123GXL-2.1.2.111

OSX version 10.11.5 (El Capitan)

I'm guessing I need to update the compiler to use GNU (Linaro), however, some guidance would be appreciated since I'm very new to all this.

    Are you getting an error (not warning) that is preventing the project from importing? I would expect it to only produce a warning (as shown in the screenshot below) and it should still default to building with the compiler version that is installed with CCS, as long as there is an ARM compiler installed. 

    If you go into menu Code Composer Studio->Preferences->Code Composer Studio->Build->Compilers, do you see a TI ARM compiler listed there?

    No, the only compiler I have listed is GNU v4.9.3 (Linaro). I believe this is the only compiler which works with CCS6 on Mac.

    Actually CCS 6.1.3 on MacOS supports both the TI compiler and GNU compiler. If you do not see the TI ARM compiler listed under the menu item I mentioned, then it was likely not selected during the installation process. You can fix this by re-running the CCS installer, specify your existing install directory for the installation path, ensure that TI ARM Compiler is enabled, and proceed with the installation. This should add the TI ARM compiler to your existing installation.
