If it takes more than 30 seconds for the download to begin, you may need to click on the link at the top of the Sourceforge page which says "Please use this direct link".
Install
When the download is complete, find the downloaded .dmg file and double-click it. This will open a new Finder window called Freeplane with a Freeplane bumblebee icon inside. Drag the Freeplane icon into your Applications folder. You can also drag the Freeplane icon into your Dock so you have easy access to it. You may now delete the downloaded .dmg file.
Run
Click on the Freeplane icon in your Dock or double-click on the Freeplane icon in Applications. Click “Open” when prompted. Voilà.
Usage
When you open Freeplane you will be greeted with a Freeplane Applications window which gives you an idea of ways that Freeplane can be used. Click on any of the elements you see to learn how to create them and edit them.
