Software: Install Software on your St. Thomas Computer

Select software is already available for installation on your St. Thomas computer that does not require the use of administrative credentials. You can browse and install these software titles from the Software Center (PC) or Self-Service App (Mac). 

On a St. Thomas PC

1. Go to the Start menu and search for Software Center. 
   
2. From here you will be able to find a variety of software that you can install on your St. Thomas computer. 
3. Click on the software title. You will see an install button for any software that is available for your computer. If you see an uninstall button it is because the software is already available on your computer and can be removed by you at any time.

Tip: You will see a red badge on the Self Service application icon and receive a notification when an update is available for your applications.

On a St. Thomas Mac

1. You can access Self Service by navigating to the Applications folder on your Mac. From the menu bar at the top of your desktop, choose Go and then select Applications.
   
2. Double-click the Self Service icon to open the application.
   

3. After you find a software title you want to install, click on the Install button for that software title. Self Service will begin installing the software title on your computer. If you notice a Reinstall button, it is because the software is already available on your computer.
   
   Note: Some software installations may require you to restart your computer. You will receive a prompt if your computer requires a restart.​​​​​​​
