### OS X ###
The ShadowsocksX client is extremely unreliable at the moment, and it does not work on OS X Mavericks or Yosemite. It is therefore recommended to use an alternate connection method until these issues are resolved. ShadowsocksX is still available via the [mirror](/mirror/#shadowsocks) if you are interested in giving it a try.
1. Download [ShadowsocksX](/mirror/#shadowsocks).
1. Double-click the DMG, and drag the icon into your Applications folder.
1. Launch ShadowsocksX. You will be prompted to enter your password so that your system proxy settings can be modified.
1. Look for the Shadowsocks paper plane icon in your taskbar and click on it.
1. Select *Servers* and choose *Open Server Preferences...*
1. Click the *+* button on the sidebar to add a new entry.
1. Enter `{{ streisand_ipv4_address }}` and `{{ shadowsocks_server_port }}` in the *Address* fields.
1. Make sure `{{ shadowsocks_encryption_method }}` is selected for the *Encryption* value.
1. Enter `{{ shadowsocks_password.stdout }}` as the *Password*.
1. Click *OK*.
1. Click on the Shadowsocks icon in the taskbar again, and choose *Global Mode*.
1. You can use the Shadowsocks icon to enable/disable the VPN. The color of the icon will change based on whether or not it is active.
1. That's it! You can verify that your traffic is being routed properly by [looking up your IP address on Google](https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&q=ip%20address). It should say *Your public IP address is {{ streisand_ipv4_address }}*.
