Download CAMEOfm version 2.4

Important note for current CAMEOfm users:  Installing a new version of CAMEOfm will overwrite the data in your current version of CAMEOfm. To ensure that your data is successfully transferred to the new version, download and read the instructions for updating to CAMEOfm 2.4 from a previous version.

Download the Program Components

Since CAMEOfm 2.0, the traditional CAMEO functionality has been split into two programs that need to be downloaded and installed separately.

• CAMEOfm is a database application where you can keep track of information (such as chemical inventories and contact information for facilities in your community) to assist in emergency response and planning.

• CAMEO Chemicals has an extensive chemical database with critical response information for thousands of chemicals, and a tool that tells you what reactions might occur if chemicals were mixed together. (The downloadable version can share information with other CAMEO suite programs; an online version and a mobile site version are also available.)

Download CAMEOfm for Windows (Version 2.4, November 2012, 20MB EXE)

Note: The installed programs include extensive on-screen help systems (rather than spearate manuals).

CAMEOfm System Requirements: The Windows version requires Windows XP (Service Pack 3), Windows Vista (Service Pack 2), or Windows 7.  (We have performed some limited testing on Windows 8, and there are no known issues at this time.)  The Macintosh version requires Leopard (v. 10.5.7 or later), Snow Leopard (10.6.x), Lion (10.7.x), or Mountain Lion (10.8.x).

Installing CAMEOfm

Note: If you're installing CAMEOfm on a Mac with an operating system version 10.7.5 or higher (that is, newer versions of Lion and all versions of Mountain Lion), make sure to review the installation instructions for latest Mac OS X versions.  This document provides guidance on installing CAMEOfm on Macs with Gatekeeper.
 

Existing CAMEOfm users:

Installing a new version of CAMEOfm will overwrite your data. To ensure that your data is successfully transferred to the new version, download and read the instructions for updating to CAMEOfm 2.4 from a previous version.

New CAMEOfm users:

Windows users: Once you have downloaded the installation program, double-click on the CAMEO application file, then follow the directions on your screen. 

Macintosh users: Once you have downloaded the installation DMG file, the installation folder should open automatically. (If it doesn't open automatically, browse to the DMG file and open it.) Follow the directions on your screen.

Starting CAMEOfm

Windows users: Open the Start menu, point to Programs, and then click on CAMEO.

Macintosh users: Double-click on the CAMEO program icon inside the "CAMEO Folder" (which is inside the Applications folder or wherever you installed it).
