Hello Debbie, A DMG file is a disk image. When you get one of these, you need to open it with Cmd-o. You'll then find a file browser window. Interact with this and if it contains a PKG file, open that with Cmd-o also. If it contains an APP file, just copy it to your Applications folder.

If it is a .app file then you copy it to the apps folder and it will install. If it is a ..pkg file run it and it will install and put the app in the apps folder. In copying the app's file to the app;s folder just know that it is installed. Tc. On Sep 13, 2012, at 4:09 AM, Debbie April Yuille

XLD documentation

Hi all, After months of procrastination I'm finally getting around to playing more with XLD cd ripper. It looks excellent. However documentation is pretty sparse. Actually: that isn't true, it seems to be non-existent. Does anyone have a user manual for this thing? Dónal Dónal Fitzpatrick

Hi, Debbie. You couldn't pick a better group. While I use the other operating system more than Apple, I believe that's (Apple) the way to go. And with a group such as this one, you can't go wrong. Matthew Chao At 10:55 AM 9/13/2012, you wrote: Thank you very much for your welcoming email.
