Sergio Garcia will be here within an hour at most . In the mean time you may try an alternative .

I hope you have applied the theme successfully . Patching with right version (32 bit or 64 bit; as per your os) of patcher, copying the theme in C:\Windows\resources\themes, and applied it.

Now, the explorer.exe will change the start button only. Nothing more. You may apply the start button (View attachment Apple Real.zip) with Windows 7 Start Button Changer . This will also give you a mac like start button .

Do this, and if there is any further query, ask here. The benefit of this place is it is full of a lot of knowledgable members who can help you, and always more is better than one :geek:

Could be a false positive ;)

OP: I will make another post on how to replace these files later today, i'm just checking in right now ;) Sorry i didn't reply yesterday cuz i feel asleep

Also if you want a good Mac theme (sagorpirbd's osx themes are kinda buggy/ugly IMO) try Caesar Port by Aaron-A-Arts or Snow Leopard by giannisgx89 (both available at DeviantART). Those are way better ;)
 
Okay, this is how you do: Use Download Windows Theme Installer 1.1 Free - Install Windows 7 & Vista themes easily - Softpedia

From that app you can change most system files in order to make the theme as it should be. But please that doing this can make you system not able to run properly if the files you are replacing have older file version numbers than your current. This you can check on the different file locations by opening the files/dll/exe with a tool like Restorator. Also you have to make sure that the files you are using to replace your original system files with are 64-bit or 32-bit. It depends on your version of Windows which ones you should use.

Instead of using the software it can be done manual, they way Arc mentioned earlier.

BTW i think (Not sure) that if you create system restore image before you do this you should be able to use that system restore to get it back working in case something goes wrong. But you will most likely not be able to access this system restore point from your Windows install. You will need to either boot up into the repair Windows part, or insert your windows 7 disc and do it from there (under repair system)
