Can I run PowerMail 6 on a 1.5 GHz G4 PowerBook with Mac OS 10.4.11?
I paid for PM 6, but can't get it to install. When I try to copy PM 6 to
my Applications folder I get the message:
"The alias "Resources" cannot be copied to the destination, perhaps
because the destination does not support this type of alias".
I'm also having a problem trying to install FoxTrot Personal Search. The
web site is not clear which version I should use. The later version
(3.4?) won't work, and the previous version (2.6) won't accept the
registration code I received via Kagi.
CTM hasn't responded to me after 3 weeks. I know it's summer and
everyone in Europe is on vacation, but there should be a minimum level
of support. I can't even find version compatibility info.
Compatibility lists should be easy to find on the web site. I couldn't
find one for PowerMail, and only an indirect and cryptic one for FoxTrot.
If I can't run this software, how do I get a refund?
Thanks.
- Winston

And why not upgrading your Mac OS to 10.6?

Ok, yes, I missed something, sorry.
But at least an upgrade to 10.5 (Tiger) would be possible.

Even though I don't use it much anymore, the Tiger partition on my PowerMac G4
is equipped with PM6 without problems.
I fear your problem lies a bit deeper under the surface. Are all permissions OK?

I very good (and free) tool to clean your Mac regularly is Applejack:

Strange; are you copying it directly from the disk image to the application
folder? I would guess from this message that the application was copied to/from
a FAT (windows) volume, such as an USB stick, or something like this.

FoxTrot 3.2.1 requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later.
FoxTrot 2.6 requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later.
You have a FoxTrot 3 license code, so we will send you a FoxTrot 2 license code
as well.

"Incredibly powerful and useful. If you're thinking "Yeah, I have
Spotlight, and it was free" then think again. FoxTrot is instantaneous.
It lets you do those good boolean searches that Spotlight makes
impossible to do (or to remember how to do). I can't believe how fast
it finds Mail messages, and then shows me the subject line, mailbox
location, and the full text of the message in preview."
