‌Mac OS X Installation

1. Double-click the downloaded installer to open it and expose the SynthEyes installation package.

2. Double-click the installer to run it.

3. Proceed through a normal install; you will need root permissions.

4. Eject the .dmg file from the finder; it will be deleted.

5. Start SynthEyes from your Applications folder. You can create a shortcut on your desktop if you wish.

6. Proceed to the Activation directions below.

Note that pictures throughout this document are based on the Windows version; the Mac version will be very similar. In places where an ALT-click is called for on Windows, a Command-click should be used on the Mac, though these should be indicated in this manual.

If you have a trackball or Microsoft’s Intellipoint mouse driver, you may wish to turn on the No middle-mouse preference setting to make alternate mouse modes available. See the viewport reference section. You should turn on Enhance Tablet Response if you have trouble stopping playback or tracking (Wacom appears to have fixed the underlying issue in recent drivers, so getting a new tablet driver may be another option.)
