Determine if the proper file type was downloaded for the computer operating system in use.

  1. A file ending with a .msi extenstion will not run on a Mac

If the wrong file type was download, delete the file and return to the Bose website to download the appropriate version of the app. If the site only provides one "Download Now" button, click the View All link underneath the button to show the three Download Now button options. Select the one that corresponds to the computer's operating system.

Mac users may need to hold the Control key (Ctrl) when opening the file.

Various versions of the Mac OS cannot identify Bose as a developer. The Mountain Lion version of OS X (10.8) includes a feature called Gatekeeper to protect users from installing applications of non-Apple identified developers. The Mavericks version of OS X (10.9.5) temporarily cannot identify Bose as a developer as well.

To open the application, follow these steps:
  1. Press and hold the Control key while clicking on the application icon

  3. A confirmation window will appear. Select Open
Without Control click:
