did you unzip it? the moviefile is compressed. Try doubleclicking it in Finder to extract, then open from MM's File-menu as previously described.

I didn't know that everything was taped, but when I looked in the Prefs I saw I had checked the box so I found a zillion of movies, great fun... Smile

Hi Olie,

Apple Care helped me figure it out.

For future reference, in case another green newbie has the same problem.

Click on MM icon on Dashboard, or in Finder. A small pop up appears called:
Midnight Mansion Monitor Settings. (this is the pop up that you start the game with)

UN-SELECT: Let MM chose the best monitor setting

SELECT: Play in Window.

Then click OK.

Now you have the Tool Bar at the top. Click on File, then click on Play Movie.

Apple Care still could not get the pic I took to open in this window???

Thanks for all your help. [smiley=dankk2.gif]
