I'm trying to Install Fantasy Ground Installer on my Mac using WineBottler. Once I try to open the web Installer I get this error: "Handlfile: Unable to save file (module/3.5E-magicitems.mod)", and it just stops there.
I'm not computer or tech savy so any help getting through this would be appreciated.

Welcome AozoraMiyako!
Id suggest you follow these instructions: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?17399-Guide-How-to-install-FGII-on-OS-X-using-WineSkin-(Recommended)
or
Install it from Steam and it will install it for you.

We actually recommend using WineSkin now instead of WineBottler. You can also use Steam, as damned mentioned. Just remember to edit your properties for Fantasy Grounds in Steam and turn off the Steam Overlay if you do.

Here are the instructions for installing with WineSkin:

WineSkin is also free but has been updated more recently than WineBottler.
