Applications for computers and mobile devices can be downloaded in a variety of ways using the Internet. Depending on the type of device, a certain type of download and installation of software will be applied, which can be done either directly or using other software.
Instructions
Step 1
Downloading programs to a computer can be done in two ways: using the Internet or by installing / copying from a removable storage medium - a laser disk or an external storage medium (removable hard drive, flash card, CD, etc.).
Step 2
To download from the Internet, you need to open a browser and enter the name of the desired program in the search. Following the links from the results page, you can choose the most suitable resource from which you will download the application installation file. Once the installation file has been downloaded, it should be run from the download directory. Further installation is carried out in accordance with the instructions that appear on the screen.
Step 3
To load the program from external media, disk drives or USB ports are used to which data carriers are connected. After identifying a flash drive or disk in the system, you must use the built-in menu to select the desired program for installation. If there is no menu, just run the installation file and follow the instructions on the screen. The installation file is usually named Setup.
Step 4
To download applications to mobile devices, pre-installed download package managers are most often used. In Android, to install the utilities, you need to go to the Google Play window and enter in the search the type or name of the application that you want to download and install.
Step 5
For Windows Phone, a similar application "Market" is used, which is a catalog of programs available for the device. On Apple devices, the application is downloaded using the iTunes service. The required program is searched for using a computer interface, and then downloaded to the device via a Wi-Fi connection or a USB cable. Also, the necessary programs can be installed directly from the device using the AppStore.
