Try to unzip the package, in there you get 3 folders, when installing the template, browse to the templates folder of the unzipped package. There you should have a zip file for the template only.

In the admin area, go to Help>System Info and the tab Directory Permissions, check that everything is green and writeable there?

You can use ftp,no problems.
Just remember to have a folder(ex: ja_mesolite) and in the folder all template files(index.php, css folder, images folder etc.)And upload the whole folder into the templates folder of your joomla site.

Yes it does. If you need to use it you can upload the language file inside the admin folder it to the administrator/languages folder of your joomla site. Not sure if it will work straight out of the box,but it should to that.

It’s quite strange that you cannot install template. Could you provide us your live url and administration account?

I did install the template on your site without any problem. I also set it as default template. I guess you install wrong version of the template (you may install template for Joomla 1.5 on your joomla 1.0).
