Google released a new version a few days ago that supports 10.3.9.

Woohoo, it took upgrading to 10.4.4 but I got it! They screwed up Mt. Everest though. It’s steeper than that. Still cool of course, you can see such great detail.

>Thats because people who use Linux only want to know what the inside of their bedroom >looks like. Actually, its probably their favourite way of getting out.

Alan, some Linux users get out much more because they have far more money, not having given half their life’s earnings to a greedy American monopoly. They also have far more free time, as they don’t have to continually virus-check, defrag and all the other nonsense that goes with Window$. Not to mention the calls to your bank etc. to beg for your money back after you’ve been defrauded thanks to spyware.

Panic over! For some reason it took about 2 hours to initialise but its working fine and dandy now.
I am now Google Earth-ed out of my mind!
Thanks Alex and the mysterious ‘Google Earth for TigerOS’ (snappy user name)

I suspect then Northern Git, that you’re not using 10.4…

Nope - nothing happening! The little icon bounces up and down in the dock for a bit then nothing. Does using safari make a difference?
Thanks for your help anyway - i suspect its my incompetence and not the technology.

Drag the seemingly useless file onto my icon.

I use Tiger - cant seem to work out what i’m doing wrong. Google Earth downloads and seems to install alright but then when i click on the link in GGSS i just get a file downloaded to my desktop that is seemingly useless.
I know this isnt a tech forum but can anyone enlighten me?
