Installation Instructions

• Windows

  Install
  1. If DeadboltEdit is already installed, uninstall the older version first:
     
     • Go to Settings (Start->Settings) and select "Apps" or "Applications"
     • Locate "DeadboltEdit" in the list of installed apps, and select it
     • Choose "Uninstall"
       (This will be a standard Windows uninstall - just follow the prompts)
  2. Download the DeadboltEdit Installation program for Windows, and Save the file.
  3. Double-click the installer program, and follow the prompts.
  
  Uninstall
  1. Go to Settings (Start->Settings) and select "Apps" or "Applications"
  2. Locate "DeadboltEdit" in the list of installed apps, and select it
  3. Choose "Uninstall"
     (This will be a standard Windows uninstall - just follow the prompts)

• Mac OS X

  Install
  1. If DeadboltEdit is already installed, you can install the new version in the same location - it will safely replace the older version.
     If you prefer, you can delete the older version first - see "Uninstall" below.
  2. Download the DeadboltEdit installation file for Mac OS X.
  3. Double-click the installation file (.dmg file). This should launch a new Finder window showing DeadboltEdit.app.
  4. Drag DeadboltEdit.app to your Applications folder.
  5. Eject (unmount) the .dmg file by clicking the eject icon in a Finder window.
     (you can then delete the .dmg file)
  6. Important! Beginning with Mac OS 10.8, a security feature called Gatekeeper only allows your Mac to run apps from the App Store, and apps that are signed by a certificate issued by Apple. (the certificate costs $100 USD per year) Gatekeeper may tell you this application is damaged - it isn't.
     To allow DeadboltEdit to run:
     
     • Use Finder to view the Applications folder
     • Ctrl+click or Right-click DeadboltEdit.app and choose "Open"
     • On more recent versions of MacOS, one additional step is required:
       Apple Menu -> System Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Security, and enable DeadboltEdit
  It should run without warnings after doing this one time.
  7. Double-click DeadboltEdit.app to launch DeadboltEdit, or start it from Launchpad.
  
  Uninstall
  1. Delete DeadboltEdit.app in the Applications folder by moving it to Trash.
