Hi John,
I have a new twist while trying to install Real Player.
When I download the program, it takes about 20 minutes or so. I come back
later and find the screen is covered with icons; starting with
"rp8-setup.hqx." The next one is "rp8-setup.1 hqx." and so on up to
"rp8-setup 1.1.1.1.1.1.1.7 hqx."
After I eliminate all but the first one and double click on it , I get a
note "Could not find the application that created the document
rp8-setup.hqx."
This computer is supposed to be better than my PowerMac 8500, but I never
had any trouble installing Real Player on it.
Wilton
