Fw: FLASH: how to make mac projector with windows

[p-h]

Hi Karin - seems this mail was lost (it appeared on the list HOURS after I

sent it) and was perhaps overlooked.

I send it again to you, in case it helps.


Regards


Pierre-Henri

| Hi !

|

| I think the safest way to proceed (I experienced it and it works) is the

| following :

|

| Create both projectors on your PC;

| Upload the .exe and the .hqx files to a server somewhere (or send them by

| mail to a Mac computer);

| Download them (of get the mail) from a Mac;

| Use Unstuffit or any suitable decompressor to change the .hqx file into a

| Mac executable file;

| Open a CD writing software (Toast by Adaptec is quite popular);

| Create a temporary partition (on the Mac HD) and copy the relevant (Mac)

| files in it;

| Select the "Hybrid" format from the writing software menu;

| Drag and drop the Mac temporary partition just created to the Mac part of

| the CD layout;

| Drang and drop the relevant PC files to the PC (ISO) part of the CD

layout;

| Setup the speed and other stuff;

| Burn the CD... and voil� !

|

| Pierre-Henri

|

| PS : if you only require a mac projector, just skip the "PC" part and

choose

| a regular Mac files&Folders format for the CD layout

|

| PPS : I have posted a question regarding writing variables from a MC... if

| you have any hint... ;o)

| | Karin,

| |

| | May not have seemed very helpful but it was a straight answer. Anyways,

he

| | is right about needing to burn on a Mac to make a TRULY CROSS-PLATFORM

cd.

| | We've been having problems at work here burning data cd's on PC and

having

| | them readable on Mac the same way they are read on PC (long filenames).

| Burn

| | it on a Mac, no problem on either machines. Kinda weird though. But I

have

| | also heard that to make the cd boot properly if that is what you wish,

and

| | to get the proper session divisions, it's better to burn it on a Mac

than

| a

| | PC.

| |

| | HTH,

| | jb

| | Sheesh, that wasn't very helpful.  I can hire a company to burn the

| | CD's on a mac for a mac. I have been trying, without success, to

| | simply  find out what kind of file I need to convert the hqx file into

| | so it will work as a projector on a mac.  There is a web site that

| | will convert the files.  Or, I guess I could tell all of these people

| | with macs who want to buy this CD to go get a real computer.
