Try download the full package directly from the support portal (support.fortinet.com).

You may need an active contract for that.

Here is it:

  • Open https://support.fortinet.com
  • Login with an account that is linked to a valid support contract
  • On the left pan, click Downloads > Firmware Images
  • Select Product : FortiClient
  • Open the DOWNLOAD tab
  • Then click Mac > 7.00 > 7.4 > 7.4.4

@doaa  when you say you don't have contract, is that means you don't have any Fortinet product contract ?
