Installing Human-ISM Remote Screen Connect for OS X

 

1. Open a web browser and enter the following URL:

utilities.human-ism.com/sc.pkg

(If you were given a more specific URL to download, use that instead)

For Example:

2. Double-click on the downloaded .pkg file.  Depending on the security settings on the machine, you may receive a message from the OS X Gatekeeper stating that the file "could not be opened because it is from an unidentified developer."

To continue installation, open Finder.  Navigate to the location of the downloaded .pkg file, and then press Ctrl+Click to open the context menu.  Select "Open," and you should see a similar warning with an option to open the file.

For more information on bypassing Gatekeeper, see Apple's documentation.

3. Follow the wizard to complete the installation of the Human-ISM Remote Screen Connect access client.

You can also install the .pkg via the terminal:

sudo installer -pkg "sc.pkg" -target /


4. If the client has installed successfully, you should see the Human-ISM Remote Screen Connect icon in the Status Menu in the upper-right corner of the screen.
