When you get a Decompress failed it could mean a couple different things. It is possible that there is something incomplete in the file or chain when ShadowProtect. Decompression Failed on Mac. Then when clicking the file it says failed to decompress. This happens on. It doesn't reach that stage. The zip file downloads. ZIP Extractor is a web application that unzips (decompresses) ZIP files to Google Drive. Works in Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer. Aug 17, 2010 im on macbook (lepard i think) and whenver i download a zipped file from a site like mediafire i almost always get an error message saying decompression failed.
I get a message telling me decompression failed when i try to download a.zip file such as today. I am left with a.zip.download and a.zip file on my desktop. Trying to open the.zip gives me 'unable to unarchive *.zip into desktop.
Error 1 - Operation not permitted.' Trying to open with Stuffit expander tell me the file is not compressed or encoded and sugests i try BOMArchive helper which is the app i was using before. Its not just this one file i can't get any to work. Cheers eMac 1GHz, Mac OS X (10.4.6) Posted on May 11, 2006 2:37 AM. Still struggling with this one.
I downloaded a newer version of stuffit. Tried to the google maps plugin above. Downloaded and was decompressed by BOMarchivehelper (not stuffit) no problems.
Nero Vision Express For Windows Xp here. Tried a couple of other.zip files all worked smoothly Today I'm having the same problem as before and the google maps plugin again gives me the same error messages if i try to download it again. I don't know what has changed OR how downloading a different program made BOMarchivehelper work. Andrew May 24, 2006 8:39 AM.
