the version of WMP that you downloaded is not the correct one.
WMP 9 is needed for OS X. Your version is for OS 9 and below which your Intel driven machine cannot run.
MS no longer support WMP for Mac and are offering Flip4Mac as a substitute. It is a free download from the MS site.
Alternatively, you could download WMP 9 from the MS site.
Hope this helps

I have a new mac book and have a problem getting wmplayer7 to open. When I try to open it in the downloads or application it says... "Safari can?t open the file ?WMPlayer7_1_EN? because no available application can open it"
How do I get an application to open this so I can watch a news clip etc.?
I got this message when I tried to watch a video.
"To watch CBS.com videos, first choose a media player. We'll remember your settings for future visits. You can always change to a different player by clicking on 'Settings'." so I downloaded the wmplayer for mac and now cannot get an application to open the wmplayer.
Any help would be appreciated. I am a new convert to mac and so far so good.
Thanks a lot
Jim
