Installation
  1. Download:

    Click the disk image icon in the download section of this page to download the latest version. If you use Internet Explorer, please control-click on the link and choose Download Link to Disk.

  2. Mount:

    Wait until the download is complete. If your web browser and system are properly configured, Disk Copy will launch to open and mount the downloaded disk image. If this does not happen, use Finder to locate the .dmg file that you downloaded and double-click it to open the file using Disk Copy.

  3. Install:

    When the disk image mounts, a new Finder window will open containing the icon for your new application. Simply drag this icon to your Applications folder (or wherever you would like to keep it) to install. This copies the application from the virtual disk image onto your hard disk. The application is then there for you to use whenever you like.

  4. Eject:

    Once the application is installed you can safely 'eject' the virtual disk that it came on and also dispose of the .dmg file that you downloaded, if you so choose. To begin using the application, double-click the application icon in your chosen install location.

    You may wish to drag the icon to the Dock for easy access.
