HT4482 Open a downloaded game on a mac

Hi, I hope someone can help me! I downloaded my Son a game he was waiting for through I tunes on my Mac Desktop, and I am having such problems getting to open this game!
I already found "purchased" tab and downloaded the game, then authorized this computer (because we also have an I PAD), then I found "downloads", and brought that game on my desktop. It does not open when I double click on it!
I open I Tunes, and I see it there in my library, I double click on it, and it does not open! other apps I downloaded (that I had previously on my I Pad) don't open either.
PLEASE HELP!!
Thank you in advance,
Inna

It is not a Mac App. Any app that you buy in iTunes is for an iOS device. like your iPad. Yes, you may store those apps on a Mac (or a PC) in the iTunes library, but it is not a Mac app and cannot be used on a Mac. You can use this app on your iPad.

    Does ipod touch only work with wi-fi? Can I download games through home mac?

    iPod touch is Wi-Fi only, yes. I'm not sure exactly what you mean by games from home Mac, but you can purchase game apps in iTunes and sync them to your iPod.

  • Can I Download Games from my Mac to My iPod Touch

    Hi,
    I can't seem to get my WiFi set up on my Touch...though I am still working on that so I downloaded some games from iTunes into an Applications folder in the Library. I was hoping I could just sync them like I did for my songs, but they don't go to the iPod (I am using the USB cable).
    Can someone help me transfer these games from my MacBook to my iPod Touch 2g?
    Thanks

    Connect your iPod to iTunes and use the Applications pane to specify which App Store applications you want installed on iPod touch. Any applications downloaded directly to iPod touch are automatically
    backed up to your iTunes library when you sync. If you manually delete an application on iPod touch, you can reinstall it from this pane as long as it was previously synced.
    See the user guide http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPod_touch_2.2_UserGuide.pdf, chapter 1.
    Note, if the games were for an earlier iPod, they won't transfer. These will be listed separately when you select the Applications library in iTunes.

  • What is a trusted site for downloading games on macbook pro

    I was wondering what if any good sites are trusted for downloading games for the mac. Any thoughts?

    If by "good sites" you mean trustworthy ones that are not likely to contain malware, constrain your purchases to the Mac App Store. There are plenty of games available.
    Avoid just about any every site you are likely to find in a general web search, since search results are heavily biased toward the advertising that pays their bills. Since a web search reveals your operating system and browser information to the search engine, the advertisements it delivers are often for junk Mac software products notorious for causing misery.

  • Why does iTunes open every time I try to open a download?

    I know I sound ridiculous, and I'm sure I'm missing something really obvious, but how do I change the default setting (iTunes) for downloads? Every time I try to open a downloaded game, application, or any other media, iTunes pops up to open the item (which is incorrect AND frustrating), and I can't figure out how to change this.

    Dunno. Do you have an example SVG that crashes Illy on your computer?

  • How do i keep my cousin from downloading games?

    how do i set up a block to keep my cousin from downloading games onto my mac? is there a way i can set it up so i need to enter my password?

    You need to setup a separate user account for your cousin with a user login ID and password and, also, edit your own user account and add a new user password.
    You can edit your own account to make your account a administrator account of the entire Mac and your cousin's a guest account.
    This will prevent your cousin form downloading anything with your username and password.

  • Opening a downloaded file

    When a download has finished and want to open the file, double-clicking the name does never work; it only works when I double-click the icon. This is *very counterintuitive*. I'd grown accustomed to the behavior, but yesterday a friend of mine tried to open a download on her own mac, she double-clicked the file name in the download window (which makes sense) and then she wonder "why doesn't it work?" and I had to explain to her that she had to use the icon instead of the name (which does not make sense). I've seen this numerous times before with more novel mac users (and I'm ashamed every time it happens).
    Is there something I can do about this?

    You can't change that behavior in Safari, but you can submit feedback to Apple's developers asking that it be changed in a future revision of Safari.

  • Downloading game on Mac Pro

    I bought a mac download game off of amazon and as I went to install it and the following message pops up:
    The following disk images could not be opened:
    Image: CallofDuty4.dmg Reason: Invalid checksum
    I was told I should change or edit my permissions but I do not know how to do that. If someone could help that'd be great.

    Boot to your Installer DVD (10.4.7 minimum for Mac Pro 1,1) by holding Alt/Option key at Restart.
    Ifyou cannot get the DVD in the drive, wait until the display has settled down and the wait-cursor disappears and press the Eject key to open the drawer, then close the drawer and it should resume and eventually show the DVD.
    Answer only the "what language" question and DO NOT PROCEED to Install. Wait a quarter minute for the MenuBar to be drawn, and choose Disk Utility off a menu. Select your Macintosh HD Volume and (Repair Disk).

  • Hi there , I'm downloading game from Mac App store ( The Witcher 2) and it's stuck on waiting almost at the end of the download pls help?

    Hi there , I'm downloading game from Mac App store ( The Witcher 2) and it's stuck on waiting almost at the end of the download pls help? I don't want to download it again is there any solution for this?

    Please test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Rebuild the Spotlight index. If you try to search now from the magnifying-glass icon in the top right corner of the display, there will be an indication that indexing is in progress.
    Step 2
    Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.

    Hi, Hugo,
    In similar cases it helped to remove the GarageBand "Preferences" file from the User Library.
    Open the folder
        your home folder > Library > Preferences
    and move the file "com.apple.garageband.plist" to the Desktop.
    Then try again to launch GarageBand.
    Regards

    A friend wants me to put together on booklet that's been done in excel. I'm on a mac os 10. Do I need to download microsoft excel for mac or can I open the document through indesign?

    I second LibreOffice as it's the most recent fork, however NeoOffice and OpenOffice will also work.
    Just say No money to Redmond!
    Also the old Ready Set Go! will be having a Lion version out soon.
    It's a low cost page layout program (like Indesign but without the high price) and can make booklets etc better, import the excel grpahics from LibreOffice.
