template extraction difficulties

[novicer]

I am able to download one of the free templates located on this site but cannot extract the files, what is the problem and have anyone experience the same issue. getting frustrated, I have never experience this before.

Which template did you download?

[novicer]

The template I am trying to extract is called "bikers template on page 13 on the bottom right hand side. I am able to download the template successfully as mentioned before, but when it comes to extracting it, no luck. I am thinking something is wrong with the templates, cause I went to another site and tried extracting the template the same as I am on this site and it was a success but not the template I want. I have been trying consistently in downloading the mentioned template. Have you experience what I am dealing with and can you offer suggestions as to what may work?

I downloaded the template no problems for me.
Have you tried downloading any other website template from free website templates? Do you get the same problem?
What program are you using to extract the zip file?
Do you get any error message?

[novicer]

Its not the download that is giving me problems, it is the extracting part that is the problem. When I go to extract the zip file, I am receiving a message that says "there is already a file with the same name as the folder you specified, specify a different name." I have no idea what this means and have never received this message before for extracting a zip file.

My PC runs on Vista.

What actual procedure do you use to extract a zipped file?
I've downloaded the file as well and have had no problem 'extracting' it.


The zipped file contains 2 folders - one called "template2" and the other "_MACOSX".
Assuming you can see these two folders showing in your unzipping program, all you need to do is click your cursor on the "template2" folder and while keeping your left mouse button down drag the "template2" folder and drop it in 'My Documents' or wherever you want it to go.

The procedure that I use to extract zipped files is as follows... all items downloaded gets sented to my documents folder, then in this section there is selection for extracting all files which I choose, but then I get the message as I mentioned before

dowloading works just fine, it is the extracting part that is giving me problems

Then just save it to another folder or you will overwrite whats in the old one.
