Then, when the program has been installed, refer to the section on Configuring Shairport Sync that follows. **Note** The following procedures will install the shairport-sync application into your system. Before continuing, you should check to see if shairport-sync is already installed – you can use `which shairport-sync` to find where it is located, if installed. If it is installed you should delete it – you may need superuser privileges. After deleting, check again in case further copies are installed elsewhere. (If the existing installation of shairport-sync is where the new copy will be installed into, it will be overwritten; sometimes, however, the installation is to another location, so it is safer, initially, to delete previous versions manually.) -**Mac OS X** -A [HomeBrew](http://brew.sh) package exists for Shairport Sync.
