How do I install applications?
The UMS Application Catalog has a listing of applications available for installation. You can search the list by category. You can also search by typing in what you want in the search box.
- If you do not see an application you believe you should, create a ticket with the Help Desk and be sure to include:
- Application name and version
- hostname of your computer you want to install it on
- username of the user on the computer you want it installed on
- Click "Login" in the lower left corner of the UMS Application Catalog to sign in with your UMS ID and password.
What can I install?
- Applications that are available for installation on University-owned computers are available through the UMS Application Catalog.
- You can request a new application in the UMS Application Catalog by sending an email to help@maine.edu, which will generate a service request ticket.
- Applications installed from sources other than the Application Catalog are not supported by Campus Services or End User Technology, unless they were approved and purchased through the University.
If a user has been granted administrative privileges on their computer, they should use caution when considering the applications that they want to install (and avoid freeware, shareware, and unsupported applications).
