Dear David I did command O which seemed to open the disc image but then tried command O again to see if it was an installer it asked me if I wanted to open it and I said yes but then nothing happened it said chrome has no windows and it wouldn't react to any keystrokes. When you say open the installer and run it, is opening it running it,or is there a separate keystroke to run the software? Then I tried opening the disk image and copying a thing called google chrome and it wouldn't let me it just made a noise. I found something called google application and tried copying that but it wouldn't let me do that either, it seemed to be a text element. How do you know whether it is an installer or an application?
Many Thanks Lee From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Taylor Sent: 11 January 2014 19:55 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Installing Google Chrome on Mavericks Hi, press command-o to open the disk image. I can't remember if it's an installer or an app inside, if an app, copy that to your apps folder, if an installer, hit command-o again and run it. Then close the disk image, eject it and delete it. Many apps are packaged inside disk images rather than sent just as .app files.

It is there in the applications folder with all the other aps but it is identified as a disk image, while all the others around it are identified as applications. It is not available in Launchpad , and pressing enter on it in the applications list doesn't work. Any Advice would be gratefully received.
