Leopard question. Can't watch c-span. Downloaded real player for OS 10
but it's not working. I previously has a "Daisy" Mac w OS 10 and was able to watch online. Can anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thank you so much!

1. I dont have leopard yet, but...
I would guess that real player may not be compatible with leopard yet.

3. I just started working with my new Mac a couple of weeks ago,
and haven't tried to download Real Player yet, but I went to that site and found two options for OSX:

I have downloaded and used Flip4Mac as a way to view wmv files, and that works well - not sure if that would help you with this application...

5. There is a Beta version designed for Leopard.
A friend downloaded the wrong version and had problems. Be sure and get the one for OS 10.5.

6. It will work. If you want a CSPAN launcher, I made one for each

The radio station link at the end is not Real Player, it will launch in Safari.


These will work with Leopard, Tiger, or any version of OSX. I haven't tried it with OS 9, but it should work.

7. Select the Windows Media Player Option
and use Flip4Mac to watch C-SPAN in QuickTime.
