How do I launch quicktime player on Mac Book Air?

How do I launch Quicktime Player on Mac Book Air? I know that my computer came with it, and when I try to launch it, the icon tells me that it is Version 10.1. Nothing else happens. I wanted to watch some online videos which require the plug in, but the plug in says that it needs my permission to run. In Chrome, it is enabled, and yet it doesn't play, In Safari as well.
Thanks in advance.

Or try the pause key which likely the F7 key.

    If you are referring to downloading and installing https://ttweb.indiainfoline.com/trade/Downloads.aspx it appears that is a Windows program and (only a quick look) I don't see that they offer a Mac version. To install a Windows program on a Mac you would first need to buy and install a copy of Windows (e.g. Windows 8). You would install Windows via Bootcamp Boot Camp 5.1: Frequently asked questions - Apple Support or via 3rd party software such as http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/

  • How do I install mavericks on a Mac book air without an os installed

    I have a 2011 MacBook Air without an os, how can I add mavericks

    Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
    Partition and Format the hard drive:
    1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    2. After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.

  • How can i restore a previously owned mac book air?

    i have a macbook air that i bought used but it was not restored. how can i restore it?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    First, open  > About this Mac, and see Version. If it's 10.8, you have to purchase Mountain Lion to be able to reinstall OS X, so open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion.
    Then, to restore the computer to default settings, follow these steps:
    1. Press Command and R keys while your Mac is starting to start into OS X Recovery, and open Disk Utility.
    2. Choose Macintosh HD on the sidebar, go to Erase tab and erase the disk.
    3. Close Disk Utility and reinstall OS X.
    If it's 10.7, call Apple to purchase OS X Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    If it's 10.6 or 10.5, you should have the Mac OS X DVDs that came with the Mac, so you need an external optical drive or another computer with Remote Disc to reinstall OS X

    Would like to download a movie to my mac air - not a streaming movie because I will be in a plane.  Any ideas or places to go for help?

    SFSue,
    Movies purchased from the iTunes Store are downloaded to your Mac and can be played back without an internet connection once they're downloaded.

    Try opening iPhoto and then consulting the More Info... item. That app will cause an autoswitch to the big GPU.
    Same will happen with any other app that requires that kind of display driving power.

  • How do I stop Quicktime player from auto-launching after I've exported a movie from iMovie 10?

    How do I stop Quicktime player from auto-launching after I've exported a movie from iMovie 10?
    It's really annoying for Quicktime player to auto-lauch!

    It may not be that simple David. They're using a "server" and some of the Apache software may want to launch QuickTime at boot.
    This isn't really a QuickTime question. It's a sever question best answered in those Discussion pages.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • Alternative to DVD player : MAC book air

    i have purchased a Office Suite :mac 2012 CD and I am using MAC book air w/o externl dvd player. How can I install the software w/o connecting external DVD.

    Hello Niel,
    Is there no way I can do this without buying yet another thing?? I need to get some software (MaxQDA) which was supposed to be coming out on Mac but seems to have been delayed until later in the year. This means I now need to purchase windows, purchase the software (rather than getting it free from the university) and by the sound of it I now need to buy a drive just to download it...It's very frustrating.
    Thanks for your help anyway.
