Zip and unzip files and folders on Mac - Apple Support


  • Note: If you can’t open the .zip file, make sure you have enough space on your Mac for the unzipped item. If you received the .zip file from someone else, there might be a problem with the file. Ask them to zip the file again and resend it.


If Archive Utility is reporting errors it's quite likely those files are corrupt.
