For a Windows computer, choose Download for Windows. On Mac, open the Apple menu and choose About This Mac. If it shows an Apple chip, choose the Apple Silicon download; if it shows an Intel processor, choose the Intel Mac download. For both platforms, check the system requirements before installing.
The download is incomplete or the ZIP will not open. What should I do?
Check that the download has finished and that there is enough free disk space. Download the archive again from the matching button on this page. If the problem continues, contact support with your operating system, browser and the error message.
