    After purchasing the item, I was instructed to download it from Best Buy's digital library. When I tried several times, it told me there was a problem. I tried to contact customer service and the Geek Squad with no help. They told meet go to Trend Micro's web page to get help. I bought it from Best Buy and expect them to deliver the product I bought. I got transferred to some outfit that wanted a monthly fee to get my item. Eventually I got to someone in Trend Micro who was able to help me download the product. I got no help at all from Best Buy.

    Should have listened to other consumers with the same problem. Spoke to Best Buy in the Eastern Hemisphere who told me he's sorry and to call again tomorrow. Good work Best Buy! Your digital downloads are so high tech that no one is smart enough to get them to work.

      Trend Micro Premium is compatible with the recent generations of the OSX operating system: Apple® macOS 10.12 to 10.14 or higher. If your iMac is using an older version of OSx you will not be able to install your Trend Micro security software, Expensivetoys. trend-micro
