Hello, me again. Sorry for the disagreeability. I have the problem with safari und Pathfinder on my mac. The Download doesn’t work. As I read the tip from Anders i installed Firefox and the download and the installation of lyx works fine.
In Future i will try to give more and clear descriptions. Thanks for the help an this Mailinglist. For me it´s great!! uwe Am 16.01.2014 um 17:18 schrieb Scott Kostyshak <skost...@lyx.org>: > On Thu, Jan 16, 2014 at 10:06 AM, Stephan Witt <st.w...@gmx.net> wrote: >> Am 16.01.2014 um 15:46 schrieb Scott Kostyshak <skost...@lyx.org>: >> >>> On Thu, Jan 16, 2014 at 9:23 AM, Anders Ekberg <a...@mac.com> wrote: >>>>> On Thu, Jan 16, 2014 at 4:08 AM, Anders Ekberg <a...@mac.com> wrote: >>>>>> Try paste the link in Firefox address field and download with Firefox. >>>>>> This works fine for me.
