[malias4]

Hello there , i got my new imac 21.5 today! so far so good, but i want to listen some internet radio and it dont work, so i did a smal search and downloaded flip4mac..

But stil it dont work, does this has to do with quick time because when i click to open quick time it wont open, should i instal it from the apps cd that came with imac?

or it should work itself anyway?

My imac has snow leo and i did all the updates..

What website are you trying to listen too?

 

[malias4]

a site from greece that all radio srations from greece are there!
www.e-radio.gr
does it work with you ?

Hmm, no, doesnt seem to work for me on safari or firefox.

You could probably find the address for the stations you want to listen to and add them to itunes. Or maybe an internet radio app.

Not sure what else to suggest tho, hopefully someone else will have a better answer for you, good luck.

I just use iTunes for listening to internet radio. The iTunes help file describes how to use internet radio, including adding stations.

Also, if you are using a browser, you need to make sure the settings are correct with respect to cookies etc.

Thank you for your help, i ll try with itunes then.
Whith my other question about the application cd that its in the box ? Do i have to use that to instal anything? Or i dont have to do anything?
And also i cant seem to use quicktime , how i use it? I click on it but it dont open... I tried to doqnload it from apple but it says i already have it in my mac... I know these questions maybe sound stupid for you but for me...

I believe the CD has iLife, xcode and some other things on it. iLife is already installed on the iMac and I don't think you'd need anything else on there.

When you open quicktime it should say quicktime at the top left hand corner but nothing else will appear unless you open a movie file.
