Your TrueFire course was compressed into a "zip file" to make it smaller and easier to download.You MUST "unzip" that file before working with the course. Here's how ...

1- Download the zipped file to your desktop (or wherever you prefer).

2- Make sure you have a program that will "unzip" or "extract" zipped files. We use WinZip (get a free trial version here at www.winzip.com) but there's lots of other programs that will works as well.

*Vista users may need to use WinZip, 7Zip or Winrar to deal with a Vista issue. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/952249

3- Once you're sure you have a program installed that will unzip files, simply double-click the downloaded zipped file, or right-click it and select "extract all" and tell it where to put the unzipped files.

4- Once the files are unzipped, you'll find a folder inside of which are all of the folders and files that comprise your course.

5- Windows users simply click the Guitar Icon to open the course. Mac users click the "Mac Player" or "Course Player" icon.

6- Back-up the zipped file for safekeeping and you should also keep the unzipped file on your hard drive for best performance.
