Installing FileMaker Pro updates (macOS)

Users can check for updates and install them within FileMaker Pro by choosing Help menu > Check for Updates, unless this feature has been disabled (see Setting personalization properties in Assisted Install.txt). Users must have an internet connection to update FileMaker Pro.

Alternatively, you can:

  • Download the updated application from your Electronic Software Download page or from the Subscription page in Customer Console. (See About the license certificate file.) To install the updated version, see Installing FileMaker Pro in macOS.

  • Download the updater .zip file from Updates and release notes, and make it available to your users. Tell users to double-click the .zip file, then double-click the .pkg file inside the folder and follow the onscreen instructions.
