    How Do I Re Download the Mac Client?

    I have spent the last hour trying to figure out how to install FFXIV on my new Mac. It's making me sad because I cannot find "Download" link anywhere!

    Can someone please help me out with a link to a page where I can download the macOS client for FFIX?

    By the Twelve, this is a pain...had the same trouble with windows, but there is a link for that! I just Googled it and it seems that you must get the link from the Square Enix Store. I don know the policy on posting links here but all I did was search "FFXIV setup for mac". Got a hit on the SE Store, on that page there is a link for the client download under the "Registration Instructions" tab. Maybe try that? Hope it helps xD

    but the 64 bit client comes out in a few days, so you will have to start all over.

    Thanks! I will try the download link. Hopefully when the 64-bit version is release, SE will give us the link or, better yet, make to so the client updates itself!

    Alas the 64 bit client will require a complete download of the entire game again! This should hopefully be available on the 27th or maybe even the 28th. I am assuming though that you can continue to use the 32 bit client while the new one is downloading but maybe just not be able to access the new areas?

    My understanding is that you can even play the new stuff with the 32-bit client still. It's more being made available for farther future use. So definitely get it when convenient, but it shouldn't be urgent.

    I thought the pc version was ending 32 bit support with Shadowbringers and since the Mac version is basically the PC client in a wine wrapper there would be no 32 bit support for mac either.

    edit. yeah. i double checked. no 32 bit.
