Download Onedrive Mac

Microsoft will automatically update the OneDrive app as part of Office 365 updates. If you are running a different version of Office (2016), you’ll need to manually update your OneDrive client.

That's one way to download and install OneDrive, but you can also download it via your Mac App Store. Open up your Mac App Store. Type 'OneDrive' in the search field at the upper right section of the window. Once you find it, click on 'Install' below the OneDrive icon. OneDrive uses the Geo-location data for uploaded photos. By using Geo-location data, OneDrive will display a map of the tagged location automatically. It allows you to download a single photo, multiple photos or an entire photo album from OneDrive account to Mac. Following are the steps to Download Photos from OneDrive to your Mac.

You can tell you have the latest version of OneDrive if you see “OneDrive – MNSCU” listed as the OneDrive folder name in the Windows File explorer or the Mac Finder.

OneDrive lets users download individual files or the contents of entire folders. It's easy to download these files and folders stored in the cloud on OneDrive to a computer if you have a link to the OneDrive location.

Files and folders you've selected for download will save to whatever download location is used by your web browser. That's frequently a 'Downloads' folder, but it could be another location. If you selected more than a single file, the download would be zipped, and you'll need to extract the individual files before you can use them.

You also can't download certain files or folders from the 'Shared' view on the OneDrive website. If you want to download a shared file and find no Download button in the toolbar, click the person's name who is sharing the files and then locate the files you want to download.

Otherwise, downloading OneDrive files and folders can be done in just a few quick clicks. Here's how to do it.
