I am having trouble when clicking on some audio clips on the net. I was trying on this page:
http://www.redhotjazz.com/ldchot4.html

and I get a pop-up window titled "RealPlayer AutoUpdate" saying "Some needed components were not available. (RA 3.0)"
Anyone know how I can listen to these clips?
Thank you!
Justin

Now I found the solution. You can download the previous version of RealPlayer - version 10.0.0. Then everything works fine. It seems the problem is with the new version. Sorry I do not remember where to download it from. I found this answe by searching google for "Some needed components were not available." and "RA 3.0". Or actually I just searched "RA 3.0" and "mac". The place to download it was given on another forum.
