Re: Newbie -- Help with downloading for MAC

Hi Emmadiva

It is really a lot simpler than that. Just go to 
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/bittorrent/BitTorrent_OSX_3.1.dmg

and click any of the download sites listed there. Install that single piece of 
software onto your mac. Now download one of the BT files and save it to your 
desktop.Either right click it (if you have a two button mouse or control click 
it if you use a one button mouse) and choose "get info". From the new pop up 
window choose the pull down "open with" and choose the bittorrent program you 
downloaded and installed a few steps back.

Now simply double click on the bittorent movie or whatever file and choose safe 
to desktop and you are done.

In future because you have set BITTORRENT as the default program to open BT 
files with you won't need to do this again. Simply save the file from the 
website to your desktop and double click on it.

Let me know if this helps,

Jarod

  Hi!

  I'm very new in and inexperienced with this.  I'm dying to start downloading 
  but I can't seem to figure it out.  Everytime I think I have -- Some 
something 
  goes wrong.

  From what I can figure out - I need python to download on my MAC OSX.2.4 
  system.  So I downloaded. python -- Then I downloaded wxpython and the 
  pythoncard prototype.

  Here's my question.  In the installation instructions for the python card it 
says 
  this, "Open the Terminal application and do a cd to that directory and then 
run 
  the setup.py script using the 2.3a1 Python you just installed."

  Yikes -- Was that in english?!    What's the terminal application?  How do a 
do 
  a cd to that directory?  What's a cd?   How do I use the 2.3a1 I just 
installed.

  Okay -- I'm pretty lame when it comes to computers.  I'd be willing to even 
pay 
  someone who can help set me up/walk me through it so that I can start 
  downloading.   Help -- Please...
