How to Update Roblox on Mac

1. Open Roblox:

Launch the game while connected to the internet. In most cases, the game will automatically update.

2. Download and Install:

You may need to install an update manually if your settings don’t allow it to happen automatically. If not, then you’re either on the latest patch, or if you get the “Upgrade Failed” message, go to step 3.

3. Restart Roblox:

After updating, you should be able to play straight away. If you restart Roblox though, you can be sure you’re playing on the right patch.

Tips for a Smooth Update:

Good Internet Connection: Make sure your internet is stable so the update goes smoothly.
Free Up Space: Check you have enough space on your Mac. If it’s tight, clear out some old files or apps.
Disable VPNs: Sometimes VPNs interfere with downloading patches for Roblox, temporarily pause your VPN when trying to update to see if that helps.

Roblox Updates FAQ

Why can't Roblox update on my Mac?

You’re either on the latest patch, or your VPN, AdBlock or Antivirus might be blocking the download. Try pausing any of these to see if it allows the download through.

What do I do when Roblox won't update?

Uninstall and Reinstall Roblox. If it won’t update properly, when installing it will attempt to install the latest version.

These are the main issues players run into when trying to update the game on Mac. If nothing else works, a clean install of the game usually gets you on the most recent patch.

Happy gaming!
