Problems to install D2 on MAC OS X

[ZQtA305]

Hi,

I'm trying to install D2 on my PowerBook G4.
The installation starts, but then it wants to have the "Play Disc".
I put the disc in and it just ejects it.

No matter I use full install or single player.

Please help!!!

If you have not already, make sure you are installing with the Native Mac OS X installer which can be found at http://www.blizzard.com/support/?id=msc0387p. Some copies of Battle Chest include the installer already, I believe.

I have the OS X installer on the CD and I downloaded it, both doesn't work.

Aside from the Mac OS X installer, does the discs actually contain Mac files? A possibility that exists is that the batch that shipped out may not have contained the files for a Mac installation. Make sure the CDs are all hybrid discs, and if not, exchange the game for a version that is Mac compatible.

Two of the three discs are "Hybrid" discs.
The "Install" and the "Cinematics" disc. The Play disc is an ISO ....
Should that be an hybrid disc???

I'll go and exchange it.

did the exchange help cause i have the same problem

 

[ZQtA305]

No it didn't. I exchanged it already two times.

I talked to bilzzard support, they told me the play disc should be a hybrid disc.
They want me to send the discs to them so that they can send me a working set.

Now, I'm waiting for them? I will give you and update as soon as I have the discs back.

Negafox said that my disc only contained windows files...

 

[Negafox]

It appeared to be based upon your description of the disc contents. However, I have not physically seen the disc to make that judgement. Contact Blizzard and they can provide replacement information should the problem still persist after exchanging the disc at the store.

i emailed them but haven't heard back. did any of you manage to install it yet?

[Negafox]

E-mail response is about 2-3 business days.

Today, I received the discs from Blizzard.
Now it's finally working.

Thx for your help Negafox.
