kiketi Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Hi, I had install the tiger 10.4.3 on my gateway laptop successfully, everything working fine except wireless and Itunes. I have some DMG files on my external HDD but when I try open message "THE FOLLOWING DISK IMAGES FAILED TO MOUNT-REASON-NOT RECOGNIZED" APPEARS. this images in good condition. Please tell me how to open that files? Thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/25242-problem-open-dmg-file/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSX86tester Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 re-download the DMG files. usually happens if someone lies about an extention thus why it does not work. hopefully the dmgs was created on a mac not a pc or else problems in them var hills. try downloading something from versiontracker.com (dmg format) of course Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/25242-problem-open-dmg-file/#findComment-171806 Share on other sites More sharing options...
casemon Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 if you know the .dmg is good, you might try opening Terminal (under Applications/Utilities) and typing: sudo kextunload -c com.apple.AppleDiskImageController sudo kextload -b com.apple.AppleDiskImageController sudo will ask you for your root password the first time. i had the same problem with .dmg files and this fixed it. i wrote a little automator (my first!) script to do it whenever the problem with .dmg files occurred and it worked very well. can upload it if you want. this .dmg problem went away when i upgraded to 10.4.6.
