iChatAV

[Bryan Allart]

I have a Power Mac G4 running OSX 10.3.4. I downloaded "iChatAV2.1", went through the installation procedure and when asked, restarted the computer. If I click on the iChatAV21 Icon it just tries to install the software again. There is also an iChatAV2.1.dmg file (size 4Mb), if I double click the Icon an iChatAV Icon appears on the desktop. (Click it once, go to ' Get Info' the size is 66Mb.) If I double click on the Icon a new window opens named "iChatAV" containing one file. The file is named 'iChatAV2.1pkg'. If I double click that it begins to install the programme once again. I think it's known as 'going around in ever decreasing circles'!
I thought the programme may have been something like iMovie whereby I can have a look at it before attaching a camera. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Bryan

try looking in your applications folder, it should be in there.

the dmg file is the box the installer comes in, the pkg file the actual installer, this installs ichat to your applications folder by default.
