I recommend downloading it with a mac... Since you've alreay tried that, tell me what version of OS X you're using and what browser... I didn't have any problem, and here is what I use: OS X 10.3.8 with Safari 1.2.4(v125.12) for the browser... works fine... if the problem remains, try configuring Safari's preferences... also, what version of Stuffit Expander do you have on your mac? |

thx K... i just got 10.2 installed... i gotta check which 10.2 it is though... --Mike |

How are you downloading it? Ie. what PC program? |
| ||
IE on both mac and pc... click on the link and it starts the dl. --Mike |
| ||
still no luck... other things seem to unzip okj though... most likely something wrong on my end... stillprobing. --Mike |

It sounds like a mime problem with the .sit file extension with Internet Explorer. I would try using Safari to download the file. |
| ||
will do... thx --Mike |
| ||
agreed... IE is NOT your friend on OS X... Safari or FireFox are much much better :) |

thx guys... the problem was indeed on my end... old version of Stuffit Expander... so i updated that... and, i updated to 10.2.8 and got Safari in the deal so i could look at it, as advised... and it does seem a bit more 'responsive' than IE. thanks again for the help... its been a while since i've been really working with the mac and i'm a lil rusty... taking a week to get back into PB and coding. --Mike |
