Re: First-time download of bookshare book on Mac: how to unzip
Hi: You need a program called the Unarchiver. I'm sure if you do a Google search, you'll come up with it. It's free and works great! :) Once you have this program, you can VO/shift/M on the zipped folder, arrow to open with, enter and the Unarchiver will be one of your choices. Enter on that, and you folder will be unzipped as soon as you enter your password when prompted. hth On Apr 25, 2011, at 3:43 PM, Christine Grassman wrote: Hello, all.

Re: First-time download of bookshare book on Mac: how to unzip
The bookshare books are password protected, and the built in zip utility cannot handle these. If you do a search for a program called the unarchiver, it will unzip these without problems.
