Question neXt Install Issues

Hey folks. Just purchased neXT for my Mac. I downloaded the zip file. Double click, the installer comes up. Starts installing, then POOF. Says install failed. I've deleted it, downloaded it again, same thing. Am I missing something?

Try downloading the "without installer" file. You can then drag and drop the app wherever you want it.

Experience is something you gain only after you need it.
I wouldn't mind social media so much if it didn't involve people.

Default Installer Does Not Work, Download Version Without the Installer

I can top that.

I ran the installer and it completed successfully and still can not find the sim

I did what Alan said and it just unpacks it to be moved wherever you want it.

Much better.

Thanks Bum! I did it without installer and it worked perfectly. Now, I just need to figure out the settings

Thank you for your help, and yes, I'm that stupid.

No I didn't.

I used the Find from the Finder.

Just checked, no hits in Spotlight.

Good call. I don't know if Finder uses a different search engine than Spotlight though?
