View Full Version : Macs v PCs: zipped files

Hi,

I'm on a mac, and every time I download a file from a kind soul here who's written some code into a flash file, I can't load it onto my own flash version. This is after decompressing the file using stuffit. I assume this is because the person's compressed it on a PC?

I get an error from Flash saying "unexpected file format".

Is there another way I can open these zipped files? When they're decompressed, or unzipped using stuffit, they have what looks like the right filename (ie .fla), but won't open.

The other thing which could be affecting it is I'm using Flash 5, not MX?

Thanks in advance...;)
