Steinberg Application Installer Tool for Mac OS X

Latest Update: October 11th, 2016

The Steinberg Application Installer Tool is a software tool that allows for the installation of compatible as well as incompatible Steinberg software on Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite), 10.11 (El Capitan) and macOS 10.12 (Sierra). It might be possible to use the tool successfully with later macOS versions. This has not been tested though.

The tool is only required for new installations of the programs listed below on Yosemite, El Capitan or Sierra. If you already have installed the software on a previous Mac OS X version and you've updated to Yosemite, El Capitan or Sierra afterwards, you don't need the Steinberg Application Installer Tool.

Pay close attention to the fact that the only purpose of this tool is to allow the installation on those operating systems. It doesn't make any programs officially compatible with them. Please be aware that running incompatible Steinberg software on Yosemite, El Capitan or Sierra may cause issues. Technical support cannot be granted. Using the Steinberg Application Installer Tool is entirely at your own risk, Steinberg cannot be held responsible for any consequences that arise from this.

 

Using the Steinberg Application Installer Tool

  • Installation from DVD: Insert the DVD. It will be automatically mounted by Mac OS X, which means being made accessible in a new window.
  • Installation using a downloaded medium (*.dmg or *.iso): Double-click the downloaded image file to mount it, which means opening it as a virtual drive in a new window.
  • Leave the window as it is. Do not start the installation!
  • Instead, download the Steinberg Application Installer Tool
  • After the download has been completed, double-click on the downloaded file Steinberg_Application_Installer_Tool.dmg.
  • A new window opens. Inside, double-click on the 'Steinberg Application Installer Tool.app' to start the utility.
  • If the tool recognises the already mounted installer, the installation will be suggested within a newly opened dialog box.
    Click on [OK] to start the installation.

    If no compatible installer can be found, an error message pops up. In case an installer is not being recognised even though it is listed below, please contact our support team via your MySteinberg account.
