Keep the following considerations in mind when you create and deploy applications for Mac computers.
Choose “Extract Files” to select a folder where the files are extracted, “Extract Here” to extract files to the same folder where the DMG file is, or “Extract to foldername ” to create a new folder named after the DMG file and extract the files to that new folder.
Important
The procedures in this topic cover information about deploying applications to Mac computers on which you installed the Configuration Manager client. Mac computers that you enrolled with Microsoft Intune do not support application deployment.
General considerations
You can use Configuration Manager to deploy applications to Mac computers that run the Configuration Manager Mac client. The steps to deploy software to Mac computers are similar to the steps to deploy software to Windows computers. However, before you create and deploy applications for Mac computers that are managed by Configuration Manager, consider the following: https://vntfdm.weebly.com/blog/how-to-read-dmg-dvd-in-windows.
Steps to create and deploy an application
The following table provides the steps, details, and information for creating and deploying applications for Mac computers.

Supplemental procedures to create and deploy applications for Mac computers
Use the following procedures to create and deploy applications for Mac computers that are managed by Configuration Manager.
Step 1: Prepare Mac applications for Configuration Manager
The process for creating and deploying Configuration Manager applications to Mac computers is similar to the deployment process for Windows computers. However, before you create Configuration Manager applications that contain Mac deployment types, you must prepare the applications by using the CMAppUtil tool. This tool is downloaded with the Mac client installation files. The CMAppUtil tool can gather information about the application, which includes detection data from the following Mac packages:
After it gathers application information, the CMAppUtil then creates a file with the extension .cmmac. This file contains the installation files for the Mac software and information about detection methods that can be used to evaluate whether the application is already installed. CMAppUtil can also process .dmg files that contain multiple Mac applications and create different deployment types for each application.
Create a Configuration Manager application that contains the Mac software
Use the following procedure to help you create an application for Mac computers that are managed by Configuration Manager.

Use the following procedure to help you create a deployment type for Mac computers that are managed by Configuration Manager.
Note
If you automatically imported information about the application in the Create Application Wizard, a deployment type for the application might already have been created.

Note
You can build a collection that contains only Mac computers. To do so, create a collection that uses a query rule and use the example WQL query in the How to create queries topic.

Step 5: Monitor the deployment of the Mac application
You can use the same process to monitor application deployments to Mac computers as you would to monitor application deployments to Windows computers.
For more information, see Monitor applications.
