Downloading and Installing Citrix Workspace for Mac

To use Citrix Workspace for Mac, you need to install it on your macOS machine. Let’s first cover how to download and install this Citrix client.

This tutorial will be installing Citrix Workspace for Mac v2104. The steps may be slightly different if you’re installing a later version.

On a macOS machine:

2. Run the CitrixWorkspaceApp.dmg file you downloaded. macOS will mount the DMG and open it for you.

3. Double-click on Install Citrix Workspace.pkg to begin the installation allowing the software to run, agreeing to all license agreements, and accepting the default installation path. These steps should bring you all the way to the Add Account section of the installer.

4. When you get to the Add Account screen, select the Add account checkbox if your organization has enabled email address discovery on your Citrix site. For this tutorial, click Continue without selecting the checkbox to finish the installation.
