How can I open the Zip file I downloaded from Nolo using a Mac?
To expand the ZIP archive that you downloaded, you will need a ZIP-compatible decompression utility. Free Mac utilities include StuffIt Expander and ZipIt. If you use an old Mac OS, you may need to do additional searching on the Internet to find a utility that will work for you.
