Q: Can't listen to recorded files
Hi,
I downloaded stuff recorded on my tape recorder. What do I need to do to listen to the material I have on my desktop?
Thank you.

You can highlight the file and hold down the "Control" key and select "Open With" select Quicktime Player and play the file. It is possible that you will need to convert the files into a format that Quicktime can play. You can read this Apple Knowledge Base article on Quicktime file converting.
