Re: download problems....

If you are using WIndows:
Inside the folder where all the files were unpacked, there is a file called Scratch.exe. Just double click on it.

If you are using Mac OS:
the file is called simply Scratch

Re: download problems....

Hi tj1996,

Sometimes the entire package is not retrieved when trying to download Scratch.  If you do not see Scratch.exe, I would try to re-download the entire package from the website again.

Let us know if this works,
Tammy

Re: download problems....

I deleted the whole thing.  Re-downloaded and re-extracted.  First we tried to overwrite but that didn't work either.  Now it works thanks.

Re: download problems....

What are some of the reasons for not being able to upload, is it due to the size or departmental firewall?
I tried to upload 10 projects and no luck.

Re: download problems....

If the projects are bigger than 8MB it could be the size. If not, it could be the firewall. Do you know what firewall setup do you have?

Re: download problems....

I just set the max file size upload to 10MB. It was set to 2MB only! (by mistake).
