Scott, Thank you so much for your help. It was a great explanation and I did it with no problems! Nancy On Dec 12, 2011, at 12:56 PM, Scott Howell wrote:
Nancy, Well if you download the files and have a DMZ, I'm going to be really impressed. :) You actually will have (I assume) a number of DMG files. When you open a DMG, which is essentially a disk image, you will have some files. You may have some documentation, a single application, or a pkg. So, lets start with just an application. So, you have this app called InstallMe. Now InstallMe generally has an extension of dot app, but that is not important and you won't see it unless you have change the default behavior of Finder. So, you would just copy InstallMe and paste it into your Applications folder. You do not have to necessarily install it there, but I recommend you do so to keep track of things. So, once you copy it there that is all you have to do. Now if you have a PKG file, this is an installer package that you run (do not copy this file to your applications folder) Once you launch the installer package you will be guided through the steps for installing the application. THe application is by default going to be installed in Applications. Finally you can eject the DMG files from your desktop once you have finished with them. I do not recommend you run the apps from within the disk image either. I hoe that helps.

I know that when it is finished, I will have a dmz on my downloads folder. I am not clear what to do with it in order to install it and make the apps work. Can someone please give me simple, clear directions using voice over? I am nervous because I haven't done this before. signed, techno-for-dummies lol Nancy Nancy L.
