- Now, you should be able to simply double-click the file to start the program.
- If that does not work, you may need to type `java -jar JARFILE.jar` into the terminal to run it.

**macOS M-Cip (aarch64/arm64)**
- Install the latest JDK from [oracle.com](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads)
- Download the latest JavaFX from [java.net](https://jdk.java.net/javafx21/)
- Unzip JavaFX and rename it to a shorter name. Eg.: `javafx`
- Using the Terminal, `cd` to the download directory and run:

```sh
java --module-path ./javafx/lib \
--add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml -jar \
./itunes-backup-explorer-1.4.jar
```

It is easier to execute the command if `javafx` and `itunes-backup-explorer-1.4.jar` are in the same directory,
otherwise it is needed to provide the full path.

**Linux**
- `cd` to the download directory and type in `chmod +x JARFILE.jar`.
- Depending on your specific system, you should be able to double-click the file to start the program.
