Installation of latest preview release via Homebrew on macOS 10.13 or higher. After you've installed Homebrew, you can install PowerShell. First, install the Cask-Versions package that lets you install alternative versions of cask packages. Vince, another option to look at is Turbo.net, which can stream Power BI to your Mac from the cloud: Run Power BI Desktop on Mac - Turbo.net. This doesn't require running any VMs on your Mac. This service also streams apps to iPads, tablets, and other devices.
Probably most of you faced this problem to try to download Microsoft Power BI and then you figured it out that is available only for Windows but not for Mac OS. This is why I decided to write an article about a solution to use AWS.
Microsoft Power BI is a Windows application only, which means it doesn’t run on a mac. For Mac users missing out of this important Business Intelligence Tool ! There are couple of solutions such as Dual Bootcamp, a local VM or using a 3rd party service, … This method is completely Free, it’s a real windows machine that you can upgrade and install any ODBC to work with Power BI, and it takes only a few minutes to install and starts running.
What is required to run Power BI on a Mac?
Before we get started we need to setup two things:
- A new account with Amazon AWS
- Download the Microsoft Remote Desktop form the Apple store.
1 .Setup an Amazon Web Service (AWS) Account
New User: If you’re a new user to AWS then setting an account is easy and free, in fact, as a new user Amazon will give access to more free instances in your first 12 months.
Already User: If you already have an account with AWS you’ll still be able to take advantage of the free Windows Server instance that Amazon provides.
Head over to Amazon AWS to sign up for a new account or to login to your existing account.
2. Download Microsoft Remote Desktop
Download Microsoft Remote Desktop. Remote Desktop is a free application that you you can download from the App Store.
3. Setup and configure AWS:
3.1. Choose your Data-Centre region:
After you signed in to your AWS account, you have to navigate to the EC2 instance panel. You do this by clicking on Services from the top left menu and choosing EC2.
Then choose the region where this instance will be launched. AWS have many data centres around the world. The closest the data centre region is to your location, the less latency you will encounter in interfacing with the instance. In many cases, accessing a data centre that resides in the same city where you’re located will provide a fluid response that feels you’re accessing your own computer. If you cannot select a data centre in your city or country choose the one the most close to your country / city.
3.2. Create a new Key Pair:
Once the region is selected, you have to create an EC2 Key Pair. Amazon EC2 uses public–key cryptography to encrypt and decrypt login information. Public–key cryptography uses a public key to encrypt a piece of data, such as a password, then the recipient uses the private key to decrypt the data. The public and private keys are known as a key pair.
If you’re a first time AWS user, then generating a Key Pair is essential. For existing AWS users, you can generate a new one for the Power BI instance or use an existing key pair.
From the EC2 interface, look for “Key Pair” from the left menu and click it. Then click to create a new Key Pair and give it a name. You’re all set now to lunch the EC2 instance. Here I named it for example PowerBIPrivateKey.
3.3. Launch a new Instance:
From the same view, navigate back to Instances and click the Launch Instance button.

Then a series of steps to complete the launch process. The first one being choosing the Amazon Machine Image (AMI). Put simply, AMI is bundle of software packages and configurations.
From the search menu, type the word Windows and press enter to filter the list with only Windows machines. Select the Microsoft Windows Server 2016 Base which shows it’s eligible for free. Don’t worry, you can always upgrade the instance at anytime without loosing any data.
Then the wizard will ask you to select the instance type (CPU, RAM, GPU and Network) configuration. The choices differ in the pre-configuration that Amazon have built them. Basically you can either start with a Single CPU and 1 Gig of RAM, and customise the instance to any number of CPUs, RAM and Network interface. Or you can select a pre-configured instance. Selecting from the pre-configured choices allows for much predictable pricing, as AWS have made a list of different configuration along with their hourly pricing.
Finally, select the t2.micro, and click on Review and Launch. Click on Launch in the next view. You’ll next be asked to select the Key Pair you want to associate it with this EC2 instance, from the drop down menu, find the Key Pair you created in step 2, check the acknowledge check-box and click on Launch Instance.
3.4. Generate the Instance password:

From the summary view, click on the new instance ID to navigate back to the Instances view. You’ll need to wait few minutes before you can generate a password to access the instance. As you have to wait, you can click on the small pencil icon in the name field to give your instance a descriptive name. Once it is ready, select the instance and click on Connect from the top menu.
Click on Get Password, another will open asking you upload the Key Pair you downloaded into your computer. Once you upload it, click on Decrypt Password. Do not forget to Save the password on MacPass or LastPass… Otherwise once you will close the windows, you won’t be able to show the password again, so saving it at this stage is very important to use Microsoft Remote Desktop later.
3.5. Access Instance through Microsoft Remote Desktop:
Windows Server 2016 instance is ready and now you can access it remotely and use it just like any other computer. So begin by launching Microsoft Remote Desktop. Now follow these steps to add the Instance to Remote Desktop.
- Click on the small “+” icon from the top window and Choose Desktop.
- PC Name: Copy the Public DNS and paste it in.
- User Account, click to expand the drop down selector and select Add User Account.
- User name, input Administrator
- Password, copy and paste the password from the AWS interface.
- Give the Administrator another friendly name if you want.
- Slick on Save
- Back to the Desktop selector, click Show More
- Give the instance a friendly name.
- Click on Save.
Now you can connect to Microsoft Remote Desktop and download Microsoft Power BI online. Enjoy Power BI !
We design Mac hardware and software with advanced technologies that work together to run apps more securely, protect your data, and help keep you safe on the web. And with macOS Big Sur available as a free upgrade, it’s easy to get the most secure version of macOS for your Mac.*
Apple M1 chip.
A shared architecture for security.
The Apple M1 chip with built-in Secure Enclave brings the same powerful security capabilities of iPhone to Mac — protecting your login password, automatically encrypting your data, and powering file-level encryption so you stay safe. And the Apple M1 chip keeps macOS secure while it’s running, just as iOS has protected iPhone for years.
Apple helps you keep your Mac secure with software updates.
The best way to keep your Mac secure is to run the latest software. When new updates are available, macOS sends you a notification — or you can opt in to have updates installed automatically when your Mac is not in use. macOS checks for new updates every day and starts applying them in the background, so it’s easier and faster than ever to always have the latest and safest version.
Protection starts at the core.
The technically sophisticated runtime protections in macOS work at the very core of your Mac to keep your system safe from malware. This starts with state-of-the-art antivirus software built in to block and remove malware. Technologies like XD (execute disable), ASLR (address space layout randomization), and SIP (system integrity protection) make it difficult for malware to do harm, and they ensure that processes with root permission cannot change critical system files.
Download apps safely from the Mac App Store. And the internet.
Now apps from both the App Store and the internet can be installed worry-free. App Review makes sure each app in the App Store is reviewed before it’s accepted. Gatekeeper on your Mac ensures that all apps from the internet have already been checked by Apple for known malicious code — before you run them the first time. If there’s ever a problem with an app, Apple can quickly stop new installations and even block the app from launching again.
Stay in control of what data apps can access.
Apps need your permission to access files in your Documents, Downloads, and Desktop folders as well as in iCloud Drive and external volumes. And you’ll be prompted before any app can access the camera or mic, capture keyboard activity, or take a photo or video of your screen.
FileVault 2 encrypts your data.
With FileVault 2, your data is safe and secure — even if your Mac falls into the wrong hands. FileVault 2 encrypts the entire drive on your Mac, protecting your data with XTS-AES 128 encryption. Mac computers built on the Apple M1 chip take data protection even further by using dedicated hardware to protect your login password and enabling file-level encryption, which developers can take advantage of — just as on iPhone.

Designed to protect your privacy.
Online privacy isn’t just something you should hope for — it’s something you should expect. That’s why Safari comes with powerful privacy protection technology built in, including Intelligent Tracking Prevention that identifies trackers and helps prevent them from profiling or following you across the web. A new weekly Privacy Report on your start page shows how Safari protects you as you browse over time. Or click the Privacy Report button in your Safari toolbar for an instant snapshot of the cross-site trackers Safari is actively preventing on that web page.
Automatic protections from intruders.
Safari uses iCloud Keychain to securely store your passwords across all your devices. If it ever detects a security concern, Password Monitoring will alert you. Safari also prevents suspicious websites from loading and warns you if they’re detected. And because it runs web pages in separate processes, any harmful code is confined to a single browser tab and can’t crash the whole browser or access your data.
Find your missing Mac with Find My.
The Find My app can help you locate a missing Mac — even if it’s offline or sleeping — by sending out Bluetooth signals that can be detected by nearby Apple devices. These devices then relay the detected location of your Mac to iCloud so you can locate it. It’s all anonymous and encrypted end-to-end so no one — including Apple — knows the identity of any reporting device or the location of your Mac. And it all happens silently using tiny bits of data that piggyback on existing network traffic. So there’s no need to worry about your battery life, your data usage, or your privacy being compromised.
Keep your Mac safe.
Even if it’s in the wrong hands.
All Mac systems built on the Apple M1 chip or with the Apple T2 Security Chip support Activation Lock, just like your iPhone or iPad. So if your Mac is ever misplaced or lost, the only person who can erase and reactivate it is you.
