How to Install Self Service on your Mac

Installing Mason Self Service Software Center on your Mac gives you access to university-licensed software and tools.

Notes:
ITS recommends using a wired network connection to install Mason Self Service. Macbook Airs and newer Macbooks require an ethernet adapter in order to connect to the wired network.  You will need two-factor authentication to access Mason Self Service Software Center.

Step 1

Use spotlight to search for Self Service (or open Self Service.app in your Applications folder).

Note: Version number will change over time; however, the instructions are the same.

You will be prompted to enter your Mason NetID and Patriot Pass Password.

Step 2

Software that has been made available to your Mac will be displayed.

Click the Install button located beneath the software you wish to install and follow the on-screen instructions.
