Use Quicktime 4 to open it, if you don't have the 'decompressor' to QT4 for AVI then use the file 'Quicktime Updater' in the folder 'Quicktime' to get that. If you of any reason can't use QT4 then use Microsoft Mediaplayer (for mac) to open it. You can get it at http://www.microsoft.com/mac/ and then search on 'mediaplayer'.
Hope this helps!
