I have some .rar files that need extracting and downloaded "mac-rar" to do so. But whenever I try to extract the files i get an error message saying "could not find the translation for the files" does anyone know how to fix this? or have any tips or hints on extracting .rar files on macs? ty

Stuffit expander (which comes standard on relatively new macs) can expand .rar files.

I have Stuffit expander, but still get an error message when trying to extract the file. or more specificly it says "An error has occured while expanding the file (error code). Error #17538" when i look at the info on it it says its a "RAR Archive" file. Is there pherhaps a way to convert .rar into .zip or something?
