Getting started 1: Install Pop Books

Pop Books is a desktop app for Mac and Windows. Your books stay on your own computer.

Download

1. Go to https://thepopstreet.com/products/books.
2. Choose Download for your computer: Mac, Windows (ordinary PCs, x64) or Windows (ARM PCs). Not sure which Windows? Open Settings, System, About: it says x64 or ARM.
3. Only install a file you got from that page.

Open it on a Mac

1. Open the downloaded .dmg file and drag Pop Books into Applications.
2. Open Pop Books. The first early installers are not signed with an Apple certificate yet, so the Mac says it cannot check the app.
3. Open System Settings, then Privacy & Security. Scroll down and choose Open Anyway next to Pop Books. Enter your Mac password.
4. You do this once. After an update, macOS may ask for the Mac password again. That is normal.

Open it on Windows

1. Run the installer. It installs only for you and does not ask for an administrator password.
2. If Windows shows "Windows protected your PC", choose More info, then Run anyway.
3. Open Pop Books from the Start menu.

What you get

Pop Books Free works straight away, with no key: one person, one company, every feature, up to 40 sales documents a month, and nothing ever locks. You can also start the 14-day full trial.
