For those with Lion GM/ NFL.com question

So yea, earlier today I was trying to watch a video on the NFL's website and I needed to download Akamai Netsession Interface to watch High Quality video.

But when I pressed on the Download prompt, it didn't do anything. I kept pressing on the button but to no avail. Does this have something to do with the fact that Lion isn't officially released yet?

Did you try with other browsers ?

Did you try with other browsers ?

Yes, with Chrome and FF. Neither were successful.

Nevermind, I figured it out. I searched for Akamai on the Finder and installed it from there. Weird....

Nevermind, found this link, which solved the issue:

I cannot get this to work. I am using Lion OS X 10.7 and whenever I click on download it does nothing. I have tried it in Chrome, FF, and Safari. I also went to Finder and typed in Akamai to find nothing returned. When I go to the link posted above I get this:

Start download --When I press "Start Download"
Click here to download using your browser.


I click here and it downloads a 10MB.bin file. However, I cannot open this file. Every time that I do it generates a 10MB.bin.cpgz file. Not sure what the heck is going on here...?

The's strange. Can't think what that could be. Getting this working was a must for me on the NFL.com site, it's part of the reason I got a new Mac to be honest to be ready for the new season. It worked for me no problem. Did you download and install the latest flash update?

Oh and Go Pats!!
