Pentax Browser - Confused

I think that rather than clicking 'open', you just need to click on the folder, or the + sign to the left, to open the folder. Am I misunderstanding what you mean?
If you're right-clicking (or whatever you do on a Mac - I'm using a PC) and selecting open, I think that's your problem.

Hi Dan... Thanks for the reply... The problem is I'm not sure how the Pentax Browser is supposed to work so its difficult to tell if I've got it wrong... if ya see what I mean
I normally use iphoto for jpegs but as far as I can tell it wont display raw images. All I want to do is upload and look at what I've taken as a gallery of thumbnails before I convert anything to Tiff... is that what Pentax Browser does?

In a word, Yes.... is that what Pentax Browser does?
Try it another way. Before starting Photo Browser, open the folder containing the RAW files, and double click one to open it.
Assuming the the Pentax Browser is the default application to open your PEFs, then it should open up, with a window showing a magnified version of the image you opened, and the Browser in the background showing all the images in that folder.
If that doesn't work, I'm not sure what's going on! It may be that the Mac and PC versions work differently, but try it and see.

but this Browser software has got me baffled...
I open the program go to a folder in the folder tree which I know to have my Raw images in and click open.... Now what I would have thought i would see is a screen filled with thumb nails of the raw pics in the folder. But what I get is a Mac window showing the individual raw files... I click on one and get a full screen of the one pic.... How the hell do I get a screen showing all the pics as thumb nails... like in iphoto? I know I'm missing something obvious!
cheers in advance
Lee
