In Finder, select Go menu from menu bar, choose Applications. Then scroll down to WireShare. Right-click or Control-click the WireShare program and choose Get info. Else select WireShare & choose command+i or Get Info from the Finder's File menu.



If you meant you cannot open the attachment in your browser, then that will be due to a browser security setting. For example, set gnutellaforums.com as an allowed site to open new windows & links from.

Thanks for your quick response. Following your helpful instructions, I have now set Wireshare in 64 bit mode by deselecting the 32 bit mode and removed any control via my firewall for the moment until I have sorted the problem. I also downloaded Java 6 as you suggested.

Sadly nothing I have done allows the download from Wireshare to run.

You will have already guessed that I am not computer literate other than at a basic level.

I have double everything you suggested but without success.

Any other suggestions would be appreciated before I trash the lot!

Any update on your trials?
If you need any more guidance let us know.


I am aware of an anomaly with WireShare's launch function on MacOSX. (I don't have the in-built player enabled.) Often when I try to launch a video or image from the upload window I get an error message saying the system does not have a program that can open that type of file.
Yet I've also noticed if I have Mac's Preview program already open it seems to launch the file without issue.
Also noticed that after a video file launch error (VLC has been launched) and if I launch the video from the computer I get the same error message unless I quit the player (VLC) first. I never saw this issue with LPE. It might be a permissions based issue. If that's the case then it's probably due to the OSX installer design or lack of considering registering things to the system.

<- Image launch error. . . <- Video mp4 format launch error.

<- Video mpeg 2 format launch error.
This last snapshot was taken 6 months ago. Not sure this issue is caused by same problem. Different error message you will notice.

Hi LOTR and BigJx

My apologies for not replying sooner but I wanted to be sure that what I had done was reliable. In the end I went to WS - Preferences - My files - and unchecked the box that said 'Use the Wireshare player when I play Audio and Video files', just as BigJx suggested. It was the reference to 'Options' that threw me. I think LOTR said the same but I can only follow simple instructions.

Many thanks to both of you for your help and patience.

Regards

PS I still cannot find wireshare.props but that's just my incompetence!
