*Instructions for Bitcoin Core 0.11.0 on Mac OS X Yosemite*
|

|
|
||||||
|
Go to the [Bitcoin Core download page](/en/download) and verify you have
|
||||||
|
made a secure connection to the server.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Click the large blue *Download Bitcoin Core* button to download the
|
||||||
|
Bitcoin Core installer to your Downloads folder.
|
||||||
|

||||||
|
{{verifyReleaseSignatures}}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After downloading the file to your Downloads folder
|
||||||
|
(`/Users/<YOUR USER NAME>/Downloads`), run it by double-clicking
|
||||||
|
its icon. OS X will open a Finder window for you to drag *Bitcoin Core* to your
|
||||||
|
Applications folder.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

#### Bitcoin Core GUI {#osx-gui}
|
||||||
|
{:.no_toc}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The first time running *Bitcoin Core*, Max OS X will ask you to confirm that
|
||||||
|
you want to run it:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You will be prompted to choose a directory to store the Bitcoin block
|
||||||
|
chain and your wallet. Unless you have a separate partition or drive
|
||||||
|
you want to use, click Ok to use the default.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Bitcoin Core GUI will begin to download the block chain. This
|
||||||
|
step will take at least several hours, and it may take a day or more on
|
||||||
|
a slow Internet connection or with a slow computer. During the
|
||||||
|
download, Bitcoin Core will use a significant part of your connection
|
||||||
|
bandwidth. You can stop Bitcoin Core at any time by closing it; it will
|
||||||
|
resume from the point where it stopped the next time you start it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After download is complete, you may use Bitcoin Core as your wallet or
|
||||||
|
you can just let it run to help support the Bitcoin network.

*Optional: Start Your Node At Login*
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Starting your node automatically each time you login to your computer
|
||||||
|
makes it easy for you to contribute to the network. The easiest way
|
||||||
|
to do this is to tell Bitcoin Core GUI to start at login.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
While running Bitcoin Core GUI, open the Bitcoin Core menu and choose
|
||||||
|
Preferences. On the Main tab, click *Start Bitcoin on system login*. Click
|
||||||
|
the Ok button to save the new settings.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The next time you login to your desktop, Bitcoin Core GUI will be
|
||||||
|
automatically started minimized in the task bar.
