Install Profile on Mac

Configuration profiles make it easy to set up your email, calendar, contacts, and reminders on your Mac. Follow these steps to install your Cirrux profile.

Important

After downloading the profile, macOS requires you to manually install it through System Settings. The profile won't install automatically for security reasons.

Installation Steps

1

Download the profile

Go to your Cirrux mailbox settings and select the mailbox you want to set up.

Scroll down to the "Passwords" tab at the bottom of the page, then click the "macOS configuration" button to download the profile.

The file will be saved to your Downloads folder as cirrux-<your email>.mobileconfig.

2

Open System Settings

Open System Settings on your Mac. You can do this by:

  • Clicking the Apple menu → System Settings
  • Using Spotlight: press + Space and type "System Settings"

Can't find System Settings?
On older macOS versions (Monterey and earlier), look for "System Preferences" instead.

3

Find the downloaded profile

In most cases, you'll see a "Profile Downloaded" message in the top right corner of the screen. If that is not the case, look for "General" in the sidebar, then scroll down to find the "Device Management" section.

You should see your downloaded Cirrux profile listed there. Double-click on it to review and install.

Don't see "Profile Downloaded"?
This option only appears after you've downloaded a configuration profile. If you don't see it, try downloading the profile again from your Cirrux settings.

4

Install the profile

Click on the Cirrux profile, then click "Install". You may be asked to enter your Mac password to confirm the installation.

Review the profile details—it will set up your email, calendar, contacts, and reminders automatically.

5

You're all set!

Once installed, open Mail, Calendar, or Contacts and your Cirrux account will be ready to use.

Your email will start syncing automatically. This may take a few minutes depending on the size of your mailbox.

Need to remove the profile?

Go to System Settings → Privacy & Security → Profiles, select the Cirrux profile, and click the minus (-) button or "Remove" to uninstall it. This will remove the associated accounts from Mail, Calendar, and Contacts.
