Installing ThoughtOffice on Mac OS X:

 

To recap, the most important step is to make sure ThoughtOffice is installed to the Applications folder, by dragging it into “Applications” from the Desktop.

For those who like written instructions, here is a quick step-by-step explanation of how to Install ThoughtOffice on your Mac.

First, download the Mac installer from our download link, like so:

Downloading and Installing ThoughtOffice on a Mac

  • Create a folder (call it ThoughtOffice) as a sub-folder of your Applications folder (within the Applications folder).
  • Double click the DMG file you downloaded from our site. The ThoughtOffice program image will then mount to your hard drive.
  • Drag & drop the ThoughtOffice application and all the files and folders (created from the DMG) into the new ThoughtOffice folder you created in the first step.
  • Again, be sure that your ThoughtOffice folder is located within your Applications folder. If not, drop the ThoughtOffice folder into the Applications folder.
  • Drag the main ThoughtOffice app out to your Dock to make it easier to launch.

    •  

    And that’s it! ThoughtOffice should now be ready to run. Here are some screen shots of how the final file folder structure (and contents) should look:
