My friend is a moron and decided to send me a video segmented as WinZip files (.z01, .z02 etc.) instead of just using my iDisk to do it all in one piece. I don't want to wait for it all to download on my slow connction- is their a way to join all of these files using an alternate program? I know that WinZip doesn't exactly exist for Mac.

Well the movie is split into .zip segments- so none of these programs will work. sigh. Thanx anyway.

Try ZipIt, it says in the description it has support for segmented files. Haven't tried it though.

wait, do they actually end in .zip, or .zo1, .zo2, etc.

if they're numbered, then oone of those programs should work.

Doesn't Stuffit Expander expand .zip files? And then you could just join them with QuickTime Pro.

Or...I could be completely wrong
