i downloaded the Microsoft Messenger 5.0 .dmg

 

it installed fine and runs with no problems. however if i log out and back in its no where to be seen

 

ive looked in the applacations folder. and searched for it with soptlight and i cant find it.

 

if i download it again and run the dmg osx mounts it and then it runs. if i deleate this .dmg

and put my mouse over the msn icon on the dock i get a ? over the icon.

 

the same thing goes for deekpark. i cant seem to make it stay installed

 

do i have to mount the .dmg's each time i want to load the programs or what?

You have to drag the application into your applications folder after mounting the dmg.

LOL. Sorry I know this is flamebait. But really, lol.

 

On another note, MSN Messenger 5.0 is a big improvement over its predecessor. I'm impressed to see that Microsoft Mac is still trying. Now, they need to bring the ever pitiful WMP back to speed. Somehow I don't think there will ever be an update for that trashy application.

i didnt know about that, i was expecting the installer to ask me where to insall microsoft messenger, as it says so on the messenger download page.

 

is it because iam trying to install on osx86 that it donsnt auto install to the applacations folder?
