Message "Error 45 - Operation not supported" When Installing a Collection

It seems that Apple’s newer Archive Utility, the default program instead of Stuffit, seems to have problems with some of our older installers.

Right-click (not double-click) on a downloaded file, select “Open With”, then select Stuffit Expander. You should see a blue ViseX icon with the caption of "Collection xxxx" where xxxx is the number of the collection. Double-click the ViseX icon and the installer should open.

If you don't have StuffIt Expander you can download it for free at http://my.smithmicro.com/mac/stuffit/expander.html. This link works correctly as of May 2009.



Second Nature is a proud supporter of nonprofit environmental organizations and has contributed more than $2.5 million dollars to help preserve the world's natural wonders and wildlife.



CUSTOMER APPLAUSE: I have lost track, but I believe I am on my eighth computer since I started with my first Second Nature collection back in the Windows 98 days. Thanks for YEARS of enjoyment! - Bruce Watson, Shakopee, MN
