5. The MySQL Installer Options icon ( ) includes the following tabs: 

• Product Catalog : Manages the automatic catalog updates. By default, MySQL Installer checks for catalog updates at startup every seven days. When new products or product versions are available, 

MySQL Installer adds them to the catalog and then inserts an arrow icon ( ) next to the version number of installed products listed in the dashboard. 

Use the product catalog option to enable or disable automatic updates and to reset the number of days between automatic catalog downloads. At startup, MySQL Installer uses the number of days you set to determine whether a download should be attempted. This action is repeated during next startup if MySQL Installer encounters an error downloading the catalog. 

• Connectivity Settings : Several operations performed by MySQL Installer require internet access. This option enables you to use a default value to validate the connection or to use a different URL, one selected from a list or added by you manually. With the Manual  option selected, new URLs can be added and all URLs in the list can be moved or deleted. When the Automatic  option is selected, MySQL Installer attempts to connect to each default URL in the list (in order) until a connection is made. If no connection can be made, it raises an error. 

## Locating Products to Install

If you are looking for a pre-release or older version of a product, it may not be visible in the default list.
