[chirp_users] Mac Problems

[Milton Hywatt]

The app runs right where it is unzipped. It's not in an installed package that mounts
when you double click on it. Are you saying you cannot get the app file out of the zip file?
Or that the app fill just won't run when clicked on? First off Chirp won't run on Mac 
unless it's an Intel chipset and processor based. Second you need to install the Python
support libraries. They are at the same site where you downloaded the app. Third you need
to install a driver for the USB cord. Either the Prolific 2032 or the FTDI driver. I think both are also
on the same site as the app.zip file. And I know the Prolific is an an installer format. Probably
so for the FTDI chip cord. So if you get all these players together properly it will work.

He's got the .app.zip file. The icon comes up right when it's unzipped for the app.
