  1. ".dmg" files are only installable on Apple's OS X operating system.  

    They will NOT run under Windows.  See below for more info:

    Look for the Windows version of the program you want.


  2. .dmg is for mac. It just like ZIP file, you need to download a program call DMG2ISO, to convert DMG file into ISO file. Try it.

    I have never done it myself, as I do have mac with me. no need to convert the DMG file.

  3. No. Mac is the only OS that reads a .dmg file. A mac treats it like a real disk. A .dmg has usually software. You have to buy a mac to run it. Xp can't read read a .dmg because it is a mac file.  

  4. You have to mount or extract the image, with a program like macdisk.

  5. On the Macintosh, these files are treated like a real disk. They can be created with Disk Copy, burnt to CD or mounted as a normal volume. If you have a .DMG file on a Windows PC it's likely you have a Macintosh file and you won't be able to use what is in it. Some sites distribute for the PC in an .EXE file and for the Mac in a .DMG file; make certain you have the version designed for your system. On a Windows PC the dmg2iso program will convert a .DMG file to an .ISO file which can then be burned to a CD or read using an .ISO file reader.
