Installing applications on Mac OS X is quite easy compared to many other platforms, allthough it is somewhat different from other platforms. Below we list the steps needed for basic installation an uninstallation.
1 Download
First download Kodi. Official stable builds can be found here: http://kodi.tv/download/
2 Un-package
Kodi is packaged as an disk image. A disk image can be thought of as the virtual equivalent of a CD. The actual data in the disk image is contained within a single file which will look something like this:
Safari and some other download apps will auto-mount the Kodi disk image, but you may have to do this yourself by double-clicking the file. Having done this, the the disk image will appear as new device in the Finder, as shown in the picture below:
3 Install
Kodi is installed by drag-and-dropping it to the applications folder.
All you have to do is copy the program to your desired location (usually your Applications folder) and run it. Copying the program is performed simply by using drag and drop. Kodi makes it even easier by supplying a link to the Application folder, on which you can drop the Kodi bundle. An example of this is shown below:
3.1 Gatekeeper
If you have Mac OS X 10.8 or higher then you might get a message saying that Kodi 'can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer'. This is due to the OS X Gatekeeper feature that is designed to discourage users from downloading from random locations and possibly installing something bad. Assuming you've downloaded Kodi from http://kodi.tv/download/ then you have nothing to worry about, and we just need to bypass this warning:
or
On newer Mac OS versions where the „Anywhere“ option is not visible there is only the way via Terminal.app to disable Gatekeeper as follows:
In all cases OS X will still ask you if you want to open an 'unsigned' application the first time it is opened, so new applications that are downloaded can't just start by themselves.
4 Tidy up
After you have finished installing the program you can unmount the Kodi disk image
This can be done by using the eject icon next to to it in the Finder sidebar as if it were a CD. You can also drag the mounted disk icon to the the Trash, again as if it were a CD.
All files other than the bundle in the Applications folder can be simply discarded. Either place them in the Trash or back them up somewhere in case you wish to re-install the application in the future.
5 Update
To update Kodi for Mac simply follow the normal install steps with the newer version. All your settings and files will be preserved as they are located in a different place in the userdata folder. Be sure to make a backup of the userdata folder when doing updates in case something goes wrong.
6 Uninstall
The Kodi bundle contains the full application. This means that to uninstall it, you only have to drag it to the Trash.
However, Kodi creates userdata files. They are located in the Application Support folder within your user's Library folder:
Note: The 'Library' folder for your user is hidden by default in Mac OS X. See here for how to expose this folder if you don't already know how to.
or
This directory contains all your settings and your video & music database. If you want to remove all your Kodi settings, drag this folder to the Trash.
7 Autostart Kodi
Go into System Preferences, select 'accounts'. Select 'Login Items', at the bottom hit the plus button and then a drop down box allows you to select Kodi.
Alternatively, if you have the app open in your dock, you can right-click/click-and-hold the icon and choose 'Open at Log-in'
After this, the application will start up automatically after you log in.
