How to Install Amazon Music on Mac

Follow these steps to install Amazon Music using Homebrew, the most popular package manager for macOS. This works on both Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4) and Intel Macs.

  1. 1

    Open Terminal

    Launch Terminal from your Applications > Utilities folder, or press Cmd + Space and type "Terminal".

  2. 2

    Install Homebrew

    If you don't have Homebrew yet, paste the install script from brew.sh into Terminal and follow the prompts.

  3. 3

    Run brew install --cask amazon-music

    Paste the following command into Terminal and press Enter:

    brew install --cask amazon-music

Troubleshooting
