To extract, the DMG files, you'll need two, or three, tools:

1. UltraISO - to open the DMG file...

2. IconWorkshop, or ArtIcons - to convert ICNS, RSRC or ICONTAINER file to PNG. :)

Sometimes, UltraISO will pop-up a message "Invalid or unknown image file format"...

Then, you can solve this problem, with 3rd tool

3. DMGExtractor v0.5 (build #48) - a small java script, which will allow you, to convert troublesome DMG, to ISO....

Then, extraction is simple and easy :)

QUOD ERAT DEMONSTRANDUM :)

thx ashdevil!

i was wondering, is there a lightweight app out there to convert mac icons to windowsbox icons :)?

P.S. - Im googling DMGExractor v0.5, but im not getting any results. mind posting me a link?

i was wondering, is there a lightweight app out there to convert mac icons to windowsbox icons :)?

Nope!

A third option for these icons are if you've got AshDevil's M set you have these icons already!

question, if you have a software that is for mac, but is also made for windows (dont ask my why i have it for mac) if you change the dmg to iso will it work on windows??

#453383

Sounds like it's a Java application. They work across multiple platforms. Not sure if it will run on windows because I think the dmg is compiled differently? If inside the dmg it consists of files with the jar extension than possibly.

This java application, I've mentioned (DMGExtractor aka DMX) can be found here:

HAVE FUN! :)

Thanks so much ash -I haven't tried the program yet but if it works that'll be brilliant. I had tried to use "dmg2iso" but it never worked. Hopefully, I'll be able to figure this one out.

#453394

how exactly do you run a .jar? i double click it, but it opens with winrar. i change it to .exe and a command window comes up for like...2 seconds but then disappears :confused:. same thing happens if i

java -classpath dmgextractor.jar org.catacombae.dmgx.DMGExtractor

...cmd comes up for a second.

#453407

all i did was extract the jar file -haven't tried using it yet - so i don't know how to do anything from that point. So you'll need to "unzip" it first.

#453439

Already tried unzipping it, theres nothing there.

#453441

To run the jar file

java -jar dmgextractor.jar

A window should open but it doesn't work for this dmg file

#453446

On my machine, this .jar file is running on Java 2 Platform Standard Edition, as a binary/executable jar file.

Just install Sun Java 2 and it will work :)

ASH: Thanks for sharing your knownledge. I'm trying to get the icons out of crystalclear.dmg. Once I get the .dmg to .iso. I open UltraISO and "mount" it....is this correct? And from there what do I do because i've clicked everywhere and can't seem to view the files within the .iso. Thanks in advance.

#453542

Look... I'm doin' it, like that...

First, I'm converting the DMG file, to ISO.

Then, I'm opening ISO file, with UltraISO, and simply drag the ICNS (and sometimes RSRC/ICONTAINER/PNG/TIFF files) and drop 'em, into a previously prepared folder...

I'm not mountin' anything... Simply:

1. CONVERT TO ISO;

2. OPEN WITH UltraISO (or other software, with similar possibilities);

3. COPY CHOSEN FILES, USING DRAG'N'DROP METHOD WHEREVER U WANT.

TADAAAAM! :)

THAT'S IT :)

Now how in the ass do i do it with DMGExtractor?! I've tried like...every possiblity :confused:

#453753

Could someone convert these to PNG by chance... http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/53771610/

Hey ashdevil_77 why this little sucker doesn't work if you are not connected to internet ?

And when you are connected where it wants to handshake ?

#453862

Laertis... I've never had such problems... I double-click app-shortcut, and it pops an info window up (GNU, blahblahblah, open source, blah, blahblah, blah), Clicking OK button, closes the info window.

Next is the browser window, for searching the dmg file.

Then, it asking you, whether you want to specify output file, or not (the second option, will force software, to save converted file in a default location, which is My Documents folder).

If you choose the first option, you'll see another browser window, for searching/naming an output file.

REMEMBER! YOU WANT TO CONVERT DMG TO ISO, SO IF YOU PICK AN DMG FILE, IN SECOND WINDOW, DON'T FORGET TO CHANGE EXTENSION TO ISO. IT'S VERY IMPORTANT!.

That's it.

No net-connection demanding.

No handshake

There's even, no delirium tremens ;)

It's simple :)
