I know I know.... I shouldn't have a ppc with a mac cause it's well..... dumb lol but I have a question, some of the applications I try to download onto the ppc from the mac and the ppc come up as a bunch of gibberish... like a whole page full of codes and no applications.... whats this all about?

I think it is a format not supported by the PPC such as Quicktime. It usually is when the site tried to open the file and it is not downloadable,. Maybe someone else has some insite?

I was trying to download some .tsk files (today themes) and it was displaying the jumbled code rather than actually downloading the file.. I couldnt figure out how to fix it..

Here are a couple of alternatives to try...

http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-webby-mobile-v2-5.html

I haven't tried either but I will because of the same problem with PIE.

I think I vaguely remember that if this occurs, the files HAS actually indeed been downloaded. (Think I remember it being in temp folder....can't remember)

Same thing happened to me when I tried downloading Opera Mini.
