+
+.. warning::
+
+   Installing this version of OpenLP will override any other installation of OpenLP you already have.
+   Please make a backup of your data!
+
+
+.. warning::
+
+   macOS may report OpenLP as damaged. If you encounter this problem, you can try the following solution. From
+   Applications / Utilities run Terminal. In Terminal, type in the following command::
+
+      xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/OpenLP.app
+
+   We are working on a remedy for this problem, but this command should tie you over till we get it sorted out.
+
+.. warning::
+
+   For Linux users, due to the immaturity of Wayland, OpenLP does not behave well and it is recommended
+   that X11 is used as the display manager.
