How Do I Download AIM For An Old iMac?
« on: September 28, 2004, 12:28:32 PM »
Hey...I need some help here. I'm at my school, and my school uses iMacs (the clear blue & white ones)...I'm trying to download AIM for this PC, but when I go to install it, it either gives me an error, or tells me the Mac I'm running needs to be updated to install AIM...Anyone know a version of AIM that will run on this computer?...I'm gunna be using this computer at school everyday for the rest of the year...Any help would be appreciated...Thanks

Will that work on an old iMac? If so, can someone post a direct link to the download here...Thanks

I already tried 3.0 and 4.0...Is there one specifically made for an older Mac?

I just downloaded the first one, and I got an error when opening the installation that read, "AIM 1.0.41.exe could not be opened because the applicant program that created it could not be found"...Anyone know what that's about? Does my school have some sort of firewall, or does this iMac just suck ass?

a .exe file is a pc file give me the operating system the mac is running and i might be able to help you....gotta check that first before you know what you are downloading...i think you gotta to to upper right and check about this computer or on the upper right i really dont remember the old macs as well as i used to when i used them.....but anyway try to get that for me and i might be able to help you
