| 208568 | 2004-01-19 23:34:00 | Yes, .hqx is a Mac compressed file format. | godfather (25) | ||
| 208569 | 2004-01-20 00:34:00 | As I see from your previous responses that these are indeed Mac format files, I have a couple suggestions: Do a Google search for a convertor (from the little I read on the page, one is here: www.zipzag.com) Find out what the uncompressed file types are (images, sounds, documents etc) so you search look for a .zip version. If the uncompressed files are on the Internet, and you know their file names, you may be able to find uncompressed versions with their original file extensions (assuming they were in a Windows compatible format). |
