Hi,

Don't try and double click the 'flasher' program (and it needs to be the flasher.macosx file you downloaded and not flasher).

First find out where you downloaded finder.macosx and Nokia_770_0.2005.45-8.bin. Do this with finder e.g. highlight them and then select file/get info. On the Info panel on the General section should be a line that says Where: Remember this directory name. Then do the same thing on the Nokia_770_0.2005.45-8.bin file you downloaded. The directory shown in the Where: section should be the same to make life easier.

Open the terminal window using finder e.g. Applications/Utilities/Terminal.

In the terminal cd to the directory identified on the Where: e.g. if it was /Users/manu/downloads do:

cd /Users/manu/downloads

Note that the names are cases sensitive.

Now do the "chmod a+x flasher.macosx" (without the quotes) and don't forget the c at the front of the command. If you get something like "chmod: flasher.macosx: No such file or directory" then you are probably in the wrong directory or have a typo in the file name ... do a "ls -l" to see the files in the directory. If the chmod works, you won't get any messages back, just a new command line.

Now try the flasher.macosx command:

If you get something like "Nokia_770_0.2005.45-8.bin: No such file or directory". Again the names are case sensitive and make sure that Nokia_770_0.2005.45-8.bin is in the current folder, again check with "ls -l".

Cheers ... Gwaant
