Hello,

How to install / uninstall the softwares that are not in AppleStore?

For example PSI Jabber https://psi-im.org/? After I downloaded and install it, it is not listed under Application to be uninstalled.

It shows like another HDD icon to be accessed from.

Installation is usually just copying the app to your Application folder. If it is a PKG, then there is an installation process.

The HDD icon is probably just the DMG that you mounted. You can dismount it after installing/copying it.

Normally after you download the .dmg file, open it and it should have an icon for you to drag it out.

You can either drag it to your dekstop or your applications folder

That’s right. I was about to say the same thing.

It is so hard to learn. I have to use MacBook for my work now.

The file is dmg. So there will be no installation process?

After installed it, the Psi icon is visible but it is not listed under application. Just drag the icon to trash = uninstalled?

The HDD is listed on side bar under location. Right it can see eject. I tried to eject it but then I can't find where psi is stored on.

1. Download PSI
2. Open the DMG
3. Open up your App folder
4. Drag PSI to the your App folder
5. Unmount PSI
6. Go to your App folder and run PSI

If you don't see PSI in your App folder, you didn't manage to put it there correctly.

To uninstall, drag PSI from App folder to your trash.

Many thanks to all sifu here.

How about for app that doesn't require installation like telegram portable and keepass portable?

Same procedure?

There are little to no "portable apps" for MacOS.

Little to no?

What does it mean

Telegram get it from App Store. As for keepass, look for Contributed/Unofficial KeePass Ports.

May I know how to search PSI files on Mac like windows so I can restore message history files.

Wonder Safari Password is safe to use and save passwords for all logins?

I don't use Safari often, should be OK. You can use Chrome or FireFox web browsers for saving login passwords. Just download from their website.

Any recommendations for good and safety password keeper?

I have install Bitwarden but hardly use it .

What you use on Windows ? Probably already available on Mac.

Keepass portable

U will eventually learn how the OS works. One of the method is what u are doing now, asking questions. We will help as much as we can.

To use multiple OS is great. Be it windows or mac or linux.

Anyway u can install Parallels Desktop and run windows together with ur mac given the app is not available for mac.
