    I have a iBook G4 (about 3 years old) and am running Mac OS X 10.4.11 with a 1.33GHz PowerPC processor and 512 MB memory.

    I have downloaded DeSmuME three times and I can not get it to run on my laptop. I can't even get it to open up.

    Any help?

    i can't get into help, the program won't open, the icon has a white circle with a line in it. i'm downloading the only version i can find.

    Ah, my bad, I forgot you couldn't actually open it. It may just be incompatible with the OS.

    yeah, but every website i look at says it should work.

    i wonder if there are any other options out there. i wanna take screen shots of stuff.

    I'm currently using a mac G5 version 10.4.11 1.9 Ghz PowerPC,downloaded the latest DeSmuME... works fine for me but good luck trying to find a game that will work on it because most of the games Ive tried didn't work, they would run very slow an the graphics are messed up.

    No, it's a Nintendo DS emulator.

    yeah, i've downloaded the latest version (the only one i can find) like 4 times ... i'll try it again and see what happens

    --some time later--

    yeah, this last time it worked, but the icon is different than i remember. and you were right, the graphics and sound are pretty bad, but if i mute it, there's no problem with taking screen shots.

    thanks
