How to install EarMaster 5 on Mac

Okay, I just got the Earmaster 5 for Win/Mac, I put the CD in and there is no set up wizard. Anybody know how to get this installed on a Mac? I do not see set up instructions for Mac in the directions, only Win.

Thanks

When you double-click the image file, a pop-up window shows up, displaying from left to right: EarMaster logo - Arrow pointing right - Shortcut to Application folder.

You must drag the EarMaster logo on to the Applications shortcut. Thsi will start the installation (a few steps).

When this is done, unmount the image file (click "eject" next to the icon in the Finder's left column), delete or save the image file (a .dmg file that should be located in your Download folder).

Finally,you can run EarMaster from your Application folder. If you want it on your dock, simply drag the EM icon from your Application folder to the dock.

This is the most standard installation procedure on Mac (e.g. Firefox, Skype, etc.) so you'd better get used to it

Have fun training your ear with EarMaster!

:strange:

I am a relatively new mac user, and having been until recently a life long PC user I expect Mac to be more difficult than it is. I have to LOL; "Drag the picture of the ear to the Applications folder" - Yeah, I was thinking this through Waaaayyyy too much.

Earmaster is working like a charm now! Thanks!

I know, I have been there too, and probably many more have tried to figure out something that is too simple to be true

Great that it's up and running now.

Have fun training with EM!
