Can't download XNView MP (Mac) from website [Solved]

Post by Ian Brown »

My current XNView keeps telling me to download the latest version for my Mac.

However, when I visit the website none of the Download or Changelog buttons work.

I have been trying for several days and don't know whether I am doing something wrong or there is a problem with the website.

Anything I click keeps sending me round in circles!

I've just downloaded it successfully in Linux:

I went to the MP - General Support > XnView MP 1.8.3 forum page, then click the Mac x64 DMG version link, and was notified when the download was complete, 96.4MB.

If Mac like Linux doesn't show the progress of a download, and you currently have a slow connection, maybe you are not waiting long enough?

Thanks for replying.

I have managed to sort it out and I think the problem was my Safari Browser which simply couldn't handle the website.

When I tried with the Brave Browser all the download buttons etc. worked and I was able to open windows that were just not working on Safari.
