Update Apple software for Microsoft Windows

To keep Apple software for Microsoft Windows up to date on your PC, use Microsoft Store and Apple Software Update.

Check for updates in the Microsoft Store

Use the Microsoft Store on Windows to get the latest version of any app that Apple offers for Windows, including iCloud, Apple Music, Apple TV, Apple Devices, and iTunes. The Microsoft Store then automatically keeps your software up to date, or you can open it and check for updates manually.

Check for updates in Apple Software Update

If you installed certain older Apple apps for Windows, or used Boot Camp to install Windows on Mac, you also have Apple Software Update. To find it, use the search box in the Windows taskbar. By default, Apple Software Update checks for updates once a week and whenever you open it.

• If you're using Windows 10 or later on a PC, use the Microsoft Store to get the latest Apple apps for Windows. Then you no longer need Apple Software Update.

• If you're using Windows 10 or later on a Mac, use the Microsoft Store to get the latest Apple apps for Windows. Then use both the Microsoft Store and Apple Software Update to keep all of your Apple software for Windows up to date.
