How to Install High Sierra 10.13.6: A Guide to Installing Software from Disk Images

Are you having trouble installing software on your Mac running High Sierra 10.13.6? If so, you're not alone. In this article, we'll explore the process of installing software using disk images and provide some troubleshooting tips to help you overcome common issues.

First things first: what is a disk image? A disk image is a file that contains an installation package for your Mac. It's essentially a virtual CD or DVD that contains all the files needed to install software on your computer. When you download a disk image, it will typically be saved to your Downloads folder.

To start, make sure you've downloaded the disk image to your Downloads folder. If you're using Brave browser, you may have noticed that it automatically downloads disk images to this location. Once you have the disk image, follow these steps:

1. Quit any running instances of Brave (or other applications) by clicking on the dock icon and selecting 'Quit' from the File menu.

2. Open a new Finder window and navigate to your Downloads folder.

3. Locate the disk image file and double-click it to mount it as a virtual drive.

4. Drag the desired application from the disk image window into your Applications folder.

Note that you may need to quit any running instances of Brave (or other applications) before you can install software using a disk image. This is because some applications may be running in the background and preventing the installation process from completing successfully.

If you're having trouble quitting an application, try using the Force Quit feature by pressing Command + Option + Esc on your keyboard. This will allow you to force quit the application and free up system resources.

Once you've installed the software, make sure to restart your Mac to ensure that all changes take effect. If you encounter any issues during the installation process, you can try restarting your Mac again or seeking help from Apple support or a third-party technical support service.

In conclusion, installing software using disk images is a relatively straightforward process on your Mac running High Sierra 10.13.6. By following these steps and troubleshooting common issues, you should be able to successfully install software and enjoy the benefits of using your computer.
