Dear all,
I did ask this question a few weeks back, but got no reply, so I am adding info here.
This is an issue that has been bugging me for a while now, if someone could help me, or at least show me how they have done it in the past I would be highly grateful.
So far this is what I have done.
Clicked 'EAGLE files' at the bottom of the APM2.5 product page.
Now, when the download pops up, and select open with EAGLE.
I get this garbled mess!
Ok. Now if I unzip the files, I try the following.
First I get this.
If I click on the two file (which as you can see are BRD or 'board' and SCH of 'schematic' respectively) it comes up with all the gunk above.
Now, if I try draaagging the two files into a new project I get this...
But if I click on one of them, I get this
So I am obviously going very wrong at some crucial point.
Thank you for you time ;).

That is interesting.. once I have the *BRD and *.SCH files unzipped, Eagle works fine.
Unzip them to a folder rather than dragging.
(I know, it seems it should work by dragging but I have never done it that way.)
Then open Eagle OR double click on either the *BRD or *.SCH file and Eagle should open up.
(The file extension should be registered with Eagle and autostart -- at least mine does.)
