I have a disc image ( real Apple HFS format) that wont open ?
Stangly enough, its a dowloaded file. When I downloaded it from another location ( so it is probably another file) wont work, no mather what I try.

The sad thing is, I realy need the content !!

Is it to do with 10.2 , I tried to open the .dmg image under 9.2 but nada...

You really need to be more specific than that.

What's going wrong? What error are you getting?

What happens if you try to mount it via hdiutil attach in the Terminal?

Ticking sound coming from a .pkg package? Don't let the .bom go off! Inspect it first with Pacifist. Macworld - five mice!
