Hi. I'm getting the message below when I try link into live listening from the Air America website.

"The page “Air America Radio - Media Player” has content of MIME type “audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin”. Because you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type, this content can’t be displayed."

I've also received other messages with similar references to a MIME plug-in. Wnat is a MIME plug-in? How do I install one on my iBook G4? How do I know I have the correct plug-in?

Thanks. JC

Your web browser can't play audio itself so it wants to hand it off to a program to play it for you. It's looking for a program called "RealAudio", but can't find it. Best thing to do is to download RealAudio and install it. Even if you really to have it already, when you install it, RealAudio will tell your web browser how to find it.

Download and install RealAudio from:
http://www.real.com/
and click the Free Download on the top right. Be careful to NOT install the fancy SuperPass unless you want to buy it - that one they charge you for.



NOTE: If you are using OS 9 (the apple on the top left of the screen is multi-colored instead of flat blue), then use this link to download and install RealAudio
