Dmg Not Opening Mac

DMG file is a compressed file of CD and DVD information; it makes files size smaller without corrupting the file. DMG files allow distributing software over the Internet. File extension errors generally occur when the appropriate program is not installed in your system. Scan your system to identify and fix DMG file extension errors.

Open DMG File on Mac OS

Since DMG is a native Mac OS disk image format opening DMG file is as easy as double clicking on it in Finder. When you open DMG file this way, disk image stored inside DMG file will be mounted, and then opened in a separate Finder window. If DMG contains installation of an application, then installation window of the app will open. If not, then you will see the disk image content. Even in case when disk image contains installation of the application you can still view contents of the mounted DMG file by clicking on its name in Finder Locations section or by selecting Go->Go to Folder… in Finder menu, typing /Volumes/ and clicking Go button.
