Mac OS X Support and Documentation:
Welcome to the FarmBot support page for Mac OS X. This is a guide that will assist you in installing and operating your FarmVille bot.
Our FarmVille bot focuses on being as simple and easy-to-use as possible, so we figured we'd make it even easier with this documentation:
Downloading and Installing:
After purchasing you should have immediately received an e-mail (sent to your PayPal e-mail address) with a link to download your FarmBot. If for any reason you did not receive this e-mail or you cannot seem to find it, you can request it again at our main support page by filling out the "Request Your Download Link" form.
Once your FarmBot download is complete you will need to unzip it to begin. Follow these instructions:
-
When downloading FarmBot, your browser will most likely save it to your "Downloads" folder:
(Macintosh HD > Users > YourName > Downloads)
It will be saved as a file called FarmBot.zip.

Double-click FarmBot.zip to unzip it and FarmBot will appear.
Drag FarmBot to your "Applications" folder or where ever you want to keep FarmBot on your computer. FarmBot is now installed and ready to go!

Using FarmBot:
Now FarmBot is installed and ready to use. Follow these instructions to begin:
-
Go to FarmVille and load your farm. We recommend you use Firefox as your browser.
-
In FarmVille, zoom out by clicking the "-" magnifying glass three times at the bottom-right corner of the screen.
You should now be able to see your entire farm or at least most of it.

Determine which tool you will be working with.
Select either the "Multi" tool, "Plow" tool or select a crop from the "Market".

Now open FarmBot on your computer (we installed this in the "Downloading and Installing" section above).
Determine how many plots of land you will be working with. If you want to plow, plant, or harvest a 14x14 farm then you will enter 14 in each text box at the bottom of the FarmBot window.

After entering your farm size into FarmBot simply press the "Go" button.

Now return to FarmVille. With your desired tool still selected (step 3), move your mouse cursor to the furthest left plot of the land you are working with. Center the mouse cursor in this plot and press "Shift" + "Spacebar" simultaneously on your keyboard. FarmBot will begin automatically clicking your land.

That's it! Once FarmBot finishes you can start over from step 3 and continue to automate your farm.
If FarmBot just finished plowing, tell it to plant. If your crops are fully grown, tell FarmBot to harvest them. Yep, this FarmVille bot really does take care of everything!
