How to Install
Software from DMG Files on a Mac?
One of the most common
mistakes among new Mac users is fumbling with how to install new
software. The process for installing new applications on your Mac
can be confusing at first because it differs greatly from Windows’
software installation process. Nevertheless, the Mac method of
software installation is actually quite simple and intuitive once
you are accustomed to it. If your desktop is littered with DMG
files and white drive-looking icons, read on!
Software installation with
Mac OS X is very different different than the Windows world. On a
Windows PC, you run an installer, tick off a few check boxes, and
wait for the progress meter to reach completion. On a Mac, you
simply drag and drop an Application into your computer’s
“Applications” directory. The trick is that most Mac applications
are distributed in DMG files, and many new Mac users
end up running applications out of those DMG files instead of
copying the applications to their Mac’s “Applications”
directory.
Enough
explanation, here’s how to install most Mac OS X
applications:
- Download
the app’s .DMG file. Often times it will end up on your
desktop.
- Double-click the .DMG file
to open it up. Another new icon with a name similar to the .DMG
file will appear on your desktop.
- If a new
Finder window doesn’t automatically appear, double click on the new
icon that has appeared on your desktop. Guess what? A Finder window
will appear.
- Locate your
application’s icon within this new Finder window. Drag and drop it
into your “Applications” directory.

How to extract files with
WinRAR: In order
to extract files using WinRAR you must first open the required
archive in WinRAR window. You can do that in one of several ways
explained below:
- Double-click or press Enter on the archive name
in Windows Explorer or your Desktop. If WinRAR was associated with
archives during installation (the default installation option), an
archive will be opened in WinRAR otherwise it want. If WinRAR is
not default RAR software then you can open it in one of few steps
below. The easiest way to setup WinRAR as default is to right click
on your archive file, choose ''Open With'' and then click on
''Choose Program''. In new window locate WinRAR application, mark
it and check option ''Always use the selected program to open this
kind of file''.
- Right click on archive name in Windows Explorer
or your Desktop and choose "Extract Files" to choose location where
you want to extract archive or choose "Extract here" to extract
archive on location where is located your archive file. Again
WinRAR have to be default RAR software in Windows.
- You
can also drag-and-drop an archive to the WinRAR icon or window.
Before doing this ensure that WinRAR does not already display
another archive, otherwise the dropped archive will be added to the
currently displayed archive
After your archive is opened in
WinRAR, its contents are displayed. Now you have to select all
files and folders which you want to extract. To select those files
and folders use ''CTRL + Left mouse click'' to select all of them,
and after you have selected all click the Extract To button at the
top of the window or press Al t+ E on your keyboard

we are working hard to solve this problem )
Sometimes the content
on MEMBERS HOME PAGE is so mixed up that it could't be used. Whay
is that?
- Updates and scheduled maintenance
are done on daily bases, so some errors my occur on MEMBERS HOME
PAGE. That doesn't last longer than minute or two.
Solution:
- If the page opens with this
error, close that window and open the " new window " and log in
again.
