V. Detailed Installation Tutorial

To help you smoothly deploy Navicat Premium 15 on your Mac, we have compiled the following detailed steps. Please follow them in order to ensure your system environment meets the requirements.

Step 1: System Requirements Check

Confirm that your Mac is running macOS 10.12 Sierra or later. It is recommended to have at least 4GB of RAM and 500MB of available disk space. Also, ensure that System Integrity Protection (SIP) is disabled to avoid permission errors during installation.

Step 2: Download the Software Package

Download the Navicat Premium for Mac v15.0.3 Chinese Localized Activated Version from the link provided on this page. The file format is usually .dmg or .zip. If the download speed is slow, it is recommended to use a wired network connection.

Step 3: Extract and Mount

Double-click the downloaded .zip file to extract it, which will generate a .dmg disk image file. Double-click the .dmg file, and the system will automatically mount it and pop up the installation window. At this point, you will see the “Navicat Premium” application icon and a shortcut pointing to the “Applications” folder.

Step 4: Drag and Drop Installation

Drag the “Navicat Premium” icon directly with the mouse onto the “Applications” folder shortcut on the right. The system will start copying files, which usually takes 1-3 minutes. After completion, you can find the software in “Launchpad”.

Step 5: First Launch and Activation

Open “Launchpad” and click the Navicat Premium icon. On first launch, the system may prompt “Cannot verify developer”. Please go to “System Preferences” > “Security & Privacy” > “General” and click “Open Anyway”. After entering the software, select “Register” or “Activate” and enter the accompanying serial number to complete activation.

Step 6: Chinese Localization Configuration

This version has a built-in Chinese language pack. After activation, click the top menu bar “Navicat Premium” > “Preferences” > “General”, and select “Simplified Chinese” from the “Language” drop-down menu. Restart the software, and the interface will display in Chinese.

VI. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

In response to high-frequency user feedback, we have compiled the following 8 Q&As to help you quickly troubleshoot issues.

Q1: What to do if “File is damaged” appears during installation?

This is usually caused by the macOS Gatekeeper security mechanism. Solution: Open the “Terminal” app, enter the command sudo spctl --master-disable and press Enter, enter your password, and restart the software. Alternatively, check “Allow apps downloaded from: Anywhere” in “Security & Privacy”.

Q2: Activation code invalid or showing duplicate activation?

Please confirm that you are using the dedicated activation code provided on this page. If it prompts duplicate, first disconnect from the network, then manually enter the serial number. After successful activation, it is recommended to block the software’s network verification in the firewall.

Q3: “Cannot load library” when connecting to MySQL?

Navicat requires the MySQL client library to be pre-installed on the system. Please download and install MySQL Community Server from the MySQL official website, or use Homebrew to install: brew install mysql-client. Restart the software after installation.

Q4: How to troubleshoot SSH tunnel connection failure?

First, check whether the SSH server address and port are correct. Second, confirm that the local firewall is not blocking port 22. Finally, try using the ssh user@host command in the terminal to test whether the connection is normal.

Q5: Garbled characters during data synchronization?

This is usually due to inconsistent character sets. In the connection properties, set the “Encoding” to UTF-8. Also, ensure that the collation of the source and target databases are the same.

Q6: Software interface incomplete or buttons misaligned?

Try adjusting the macOS display scaling. Go to “System Preferences” > “Displays” and select “Default” for “Scaled”. If the problem persists, please update the graphics driver or reset NVRAM.

Q7: How to back up Navicat connection configurations?

Connection configurations are stored in the ~/Library/Application Support/PremiumSoft CyberTech/Navicat Premium/ directory. Simply copy this folder to back it up. To restore, put the backup file back to the original path.

Q8: Can it still be used after the trial period expires?

After the trial period ends, core functions will be locked. You need to use the activated version with a permanent license provided on this page. If you encounter activation problems, please refer to the activation guide in Step 5.

Mastering shortcut keys can significantly improve Navicat operation efficiency. The following table summarizes the 10 most commonly used shortcut keys. It is recommended to take a screenshot and save it.

VIII. Usage Tips and Practical Cases

The following tips come from the daily practice of senior DBAs and can help you save a lot of time.

Tip 1: Use the “Data Transfer” function to migrate databases

Navicat’s “Data Transfer” tool supports cross-database type migration. For example, from MySQL to PostgreSQL. Operation path: Click “Tools” > “Data Transfer”, select source and target connections, check “Include table structure and data”, and click “Start”. This function automatically handles data type mapping.

Tip 2: Set up scheduled backup tasks

Through the “Auto Run” module, you can create scheduled backup scripts. Specific operation: Click “Auto Run” > “New Batch Job”, add a “Backup” task, and set the execution time to 2 AM daily. Also, enable “Compress backup file” to save disk space.

Tip 3: Use the “Model” tool to design ER diagrams

For complex projects, first design a logical ER diagram in “Model”. Navicat supports synchronizing the model directly to the database. For example, design an e-commerce order system, define the relationships between “User Table”, “Order Table”, and “Product Table” in the model, and then click “Synchronize to Database” to generate DDL statements.

Practical Case: Optimizing Slow Queries

A customer service representative of an e-commerce platform reported slow order queries. Use Navicat’s “Query Analyzer” to capture slow query logs and found a JOIN statement that did not use an index. Through the “Explain Current Statement” function, locate the full table scan. Then in the associated
