How to install McAfee LiveSafe
This article describes how to install McAfee LiveSafe, which provides protection for your PC, Mac, and mobile devices.
For minimum system requirements, or to see which products you can install on specific devices, see TS101836.
Solution
Install or re-install on a PC or Mac
The first time you start your new computer you are prompted to register your pre-installed LiveSafe product. During registration, you will be asked if you agree to share information with McAfee. If you select this option, your LiveSafe product is automatically set up for you as part of your computer’s normal setup process. If you do not select this option, you can still activate your LiveSafe product later by selecting the McAfee tile and creating (or logging in to) a McAfee account.
If you purchased a LiveSafe retail card, you can redeem your purchase using the steps in TS101807.
IMPORTANT: If you are using a Mac, before you begin, open your Downloads folder and verify that it does not contain an older version of the McAfee installer .dmg file. If you find one, rename the file. Having an older copy in your Downloads folder could cause your Mac to mount the wrong installer and prevent your product from successfully activating. See the Related Information section of this article for more details.

Possible Activation issues
If a McAfee installation .dmg file already exists in the Downloads folder, the installer might mount and try to install this older version of the product to your Mac. This is a problem because this older version can no longer be activated without the serial number.
Workaround:
Rename any McAfee Installation .dmg files in the Downloads folder before downloading the new package. This will ensure that only the latest version available is installed. To rename the file, change the extension from .dmg to anything else, for example, .dm_.
