# Instructions on updating the macOS drag-and-drop installer
This is an example of updating the installer from 22.02.beta.01 to 22.02.beta.02:
2022-08-27 20:43:06 +02:00
1. Download the OpenRocket-22.02.beta.01-macOS.dmg file
2. Make a read/write .dmg file using the terminal command `hdiutil convert OpenRocket-22.02.beta.01-macOS.dmg -format UDRW -o 22.02.beta.01_rw.dmg`
3. Enlarge the writable DMG, by first checking the current size: `hdiutil resize 22.02.beta.01_rw.dmg`, e.g. you get 370000 in the 'cur' column, then just resize it to e.g. 400000: `hdiutil resize -sectors 400000 22.02.beta.01_rw.dmg`
4. Mount the DMG: `hdiutil attach 22.02.beta.01_rw.dmg`

5. Open the OpenRocket-disk from your desktop and change the app name from 22.02.beta.01 to 22.02.beta.02
6. Copy the .DS_Store to `openrocket/install4j/22.xx/macOS_resources` by running the command `cp /Volumes/OpenRocket/.DS_Store openrocket/install4j/22.xx/macOS_resources/DS_Store`
7. Eject the OpenRocket DMG disk from your desktop (important step)
