I click on the Get Tanner link to that opens the launcher and I see Marty and the Deloran but no episode buttons on the side so that I can actually play the game.

    Ditto. I'm running the game on a Mac Book Pro. I've tried reinstalling it, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be working. I've even tried re-downloading it with no avail. I hope you guys can fix it soon. I really enjoyed Ep 1 and want to play Ep 2 soon.

    I downloaded the pc version and at first it wouldn't work then I rebooted the pc and it showed the game in a smaller window instead of full screen like episode one and just as Doc is getting arrested it crashed.

    Should I re-install it or is there another way to fix it?

    Hi Everyone,

    Does anyone know a solution yet? I too have the same problem with no episodes listed and the play button does not work.

    OK guys, I've found a workaround for BTTF Episode 2 (on Windows) not working, heres what I did:

    1) Uninstall both episode 1 & 2, selecting to keep save games
    2) Install Episode 2 first
    3) Then Install Episode 1
    4) Run Episode 1's Launcher (In windows 7, I have to right click the launcher and select "Run as administrator")
    The Episode 2 Play Now button will now be available

    Hope this get you playing too.

    SOLUTION: For those players who can't launch the game (Episode 1 or 2) on Mac OSX rename the game file so that it contains no spaces in the name.

    Eg if the file from the zip was "BackToTheFuture101 DRM 15.01" rename it to "BackToTheFuture101".

    Download the crack from Taringa site.
    It works for me. Finally i can play the ep 2
    The telltalle Launcher doesn't work correctly.
    I paid for the game, and i spent 48 hours trying to use this useless launcher.

    On Windows Vista, you have to run the launcher as an administrator.

    I can't launch Ep 1. I've installed and reinstalled several times, and the installation always indicates success. But when I try to launch it, nothing happens. No Windows open up. No hourglass. Nothing. In Windows Task Manager, a process "BackToTheFuture101.exe*32" shows up for about two seconds, then disappears.

    I'm running Windows 7 on a 64 bit Core i7 processor, with plenty of memory and drive space.

    I've tried running as Administrator. Nothing. Messed with the Compatability settings. Nothing.

    Wallace and Grommit worked fine. Monkey Island worked fine.

    Can anyone help me?
