Jim Alfredson Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 With bin files, don't you just double-click them and they expand into a folder? Then you find the installer in the folder, double-click and voila? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalo Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 Sounds right to me. I've always been more of an intuitive guy (s'why I like Macs, obviously), and I blundered my way through a Mozilla installation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 I suggested Opera, but I guess he was having problems installing it and I'm not a mac man. ← Late also has the problem. He, too, is being missed here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim R Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 Ok, so its Mozilla 1.2.1. I have downloaded it and gotten a response from Larry. He is asking for step-by-step instructions on how to install it and since I'm not a mac person, I don't know. It is a .bin file. Can anyone give me step-by-step instructions for installing this for the computer novice? I think I'll do a mass email to all the members so that those who are having these problems can contact me and I will mail them a CD-R if need be. ← I was in a similar situation back when the new board software came into effect. I'm using OS 9.0.4, and had no problems downloading/installing Mozilla 1.0.2, which has worked out great. I just made sure to check system requirements, the compatability of the different versions, and followed the instructions (couldn't tell you now how I did it). Anyway, I've had trouble in the past with download attempts timing out, but this one went smoothly, and instructions were clear. Maybe put Larry (and whomever else is in that boat) in touch with Jim Dye...? Jim has always had answers for me (hipped me to iCab a few years ago as well, which was my main browser for awhile). Chris A knows his way around Macs too, but I think he'd probably tell Larry to buy a new system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 I suggested Opera, but I guess he was having problems installing it and I'm not a mac man. ← Late also has the problem. He, too, is being missed here! ← As we live in the same town (but have never met) I gave him the info contained in the thread about how to solve the problem and offered to post or look here if that didn't do the trick. But I never heard back from him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catesta Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 So, I take it Larry is still unable to get here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
