Installation problem: seeking admin access?
Posted: Tue Apr 04, 2023 1:33 pm
Hi, I'm a bit of a MacOS noob, and I haven't installed a program by dragging and dropping it into the Applications folder before.
I downloaded the current version of the program, and when I ran the downloaded file, it showed me an icon that I requested me to drag & drop into the Applications folder.
When I attempt to drag and drop, I get a prompt asking me for Administrator name and password. I'm stuck as I don't know what the "name" part is. Where do I look for that, somewhere in system preferences?
I hope someone here can guide me. TIA!
