Environment

MiWorkspace Mac

Issue

Open Managed Software Center and install software / manage updates.

Resolution

  • Managed Software Center is a built-in tool on MiWorkspace Macs that allows you to install additional MiWorkspace supported applications and updates.  
  • Managed Software Center will launch automatically when an update is available for an existing application. 
  • You may also launch Managed Software Center to install new software applications or to manually check for updates at any time.

Note: It is recommended that you connect your computer to a power supply and maintain a connection to the same network for the duration of each installation/update.
