I recently decided to take my old G4 and turn it into a media center. It's currently running tiger, which I assume is compatible. I downloaded the program and mounted it and when I try to open it I get this error.
you cannot open the application xbmc because it may be damaged or incomplete
Anyone know how to fix this?

Now I've run into a new problem. I don't get the error message anymore, but when I try to open it nothing happens. Would that still be a problem with the version I downloaded? I tried a bunch of different downloads and they all have one of the two problems.

Ok. I downloaded the xbmc 9.11-ppc-repack.dmg version. It seems to work fine until I tried to open it and nothing happened. I went into my library and found a crash report (xbmc.crash.log)

There are separate downloads for i386 and ppc for XBMC for Mac. Sounds like you grabbed the wrong one.
