Install

  1. Open the file you downloaded.
  2. If Studiotake is already on your Mac, quit it first.
  3. Drag Studiotake to Applications.
  4. Open it from Applications and drop in your first recording. This version cannot update itself: once, when the next one is out, download it here again and drag it to Applications; from then on it updates itself. To know when, check back here: this line changes when the next one is published.

Won’t open?

  • It says Studiotake is damaged and should be moved to the Trash: the download is incomplete or was changed on the way. Move it to the Trash, download it again, and check that the size and checksum below match the file you got.
  • It says it is from an unidentified developer, or that Apple cannot check it for malicious software: the download may be damaged or altered, or macOS is being strict. Download it again from this page and open it. If macOS still refuses, open System Settings, then Privacy & Security, scroll down and choose Open Anyway next to Studiotake.
  • It says it is not supported on this type of Mac, or asks you to install Rosetta: you have the version for the other chip. Check About This Mac and download the other one.
  • It says it needs a newer version of macOS: Studiotake needs macOS 14 or later.
  • It opens from the disk image but not later: drag it to Applications first. A copy opened from the disk image or Downloads cannot update itself.
  • Still stuck: write to contact@studiotake.app with your macOS version and what you see.
