Me again. *sigh*

Bought a Seagate Go-Flex portable hard-drive -one that will allow sharing of files between Windows and OSX.

Seagate support is closed until Monday and I am impatient. (Not only that, come Monday it is back to the rat race with little time to mess around with this.)

My Mac recognizes the hard drive. When I click on the Mac installer.dmg file it appears to work in that it installs an icon and opens a window for the Seagate Setup Assistant Mac Install. But nothing happens when I click "open" on the Setup Assistant. If I understand correctly, this is necessary to download the Paragon driver.

I've crawled all over the Seagate support website and can't find anything helpful at all.

I'll reiterate my operating system is OSX 10.4.11.

Any ideas?
