The icon is on the Dock. To launch a program, click on its icon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also launch an app using Spotlight. Simply enter the program&#8217;s name in the search bar and press Enter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>How to Download a Program from the Internet on Mac?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are installing an app from unknown sources, it will appear in the &#8220;Downloads&#8221; folder. Double-click on the package file (icon resembling an open box) or disk image. The provider&#8217;s installer should open automatically, but if it doesn&#8217;t, open it manually and follow the on-screen instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"936\" height=\"558\" src=\"https:\/\/ispace.ge\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Picture-4-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6283\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ispace.ge\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Picture-4-3.jpg 936w, https:\/\/ispace.ge\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Picture-4-3-300x179.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ispace.ge\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Picture-4-3-768x458.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 936px) 100vw, 936px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>How to Install a Program on Mac Not from the App Store?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This guide is suitable if you need to install an app from unreliable sources. If it&#8217;s not registered by the developer with Apple, a warning window will appear on your screen. It doesn&#8217;t necessarily mean there&#8217;s something wrong with the installed program; it might have been created before registration started. However, since the app was not verified, macOS cannot determine whether it has been altered or infected with viruses after release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s safest to use an alternative app from an Apple-registered developer or download a new version from the App Store.  But if you&#8217;re not looking for the easy way out, you&#8217;ll need to change your MacBook settings first. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you see the \u201cApp not from the Mac App Store\u201d menu, to open it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Select Apple menu > System Preferences > Privacy &amp; Security.<\/li><li>In the Security section, enable the &#8220;App Store and Known Developers&#8221; option.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"818\" src=\"https:\/\/ispace.ge\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/FOTO-1-ANGL-1024x818.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7712\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ispace.ge\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/FOTO-1-ANGL-1024x818.png 1024w, https:\/\/ispace.ge\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/FOTO-1-ANGL-300x240.png 300w, https:\/\/ispace.ge\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/FOTO-1-ANGL-768x614.png 768w, https:\/\/ispace.ge\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/FOTO-1-ANGL.png 1424w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>How to Install an App on Mac from Disk?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here it&#8217;s straightforward: insert the disk into the optical drive connected to your Mac and follow the on-screen instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to use your MacBook to its full potential?
