    Default If I download an image file for the MAC with a .sit extention, can I use my PC to burn it for the MAC

    Hi all,
    I have a image file of a MAC program that is a .sit file. My question
    is, can I somehow get this file burned to CDR using my PC so that the
    MAC can install the program from the CD? Ideally I'd like to
    completely create the Program CD on the PC so that the MAC can then
    use it immediately, but if I need a work around or something, so be
    it.

    I have a PC with a Plextor 48/24/48A CDRW drive and I also have the
    following programs installed. Isobuster, WinIso, Nero 6 Ultra, Roxio
    Easy CD Creator 6 and CLone CD.

    I am trying to creat this program CD for my friend who has the MAC, so
    I don't actually have access to the MAC.

    Also thanks to all who posted responses regarding my previous question
    about the same program but in a .img file. I now alos have a .sit file
    and I'm hoping that This one will work.

    Any ideas, or instructions will be much appreciated.
    Thanks
    Thanks in advance!!!

    Yes.

    Stuffit archives (.sit files) have the resource fork encoded to safely live on
    a PC CD.

    Just burn it to a regular CD the way you ordinarily would. Macs can read PC Cds
    with no problems, so you're good to go. :)
