Why won't quicktime player work? I own Mac Book Pro with Retina Display and connote get the quicktime player to open or play quicktime movies?

Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Preferences/com.apple.quicktimeplayer.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
You might need to redo the View settings after an update.

  • After Security updation of Windows 7 in Boot Camp (Mac Book Pro with Retina Display) on 13-Nov-2013, Windows 7 Desktop Gadgets are not working properly.

    After Security updation of Windows 7 in Boot Camp (Mac Book Pro with Retina Display) on 13-Nov-2013, Windows 7 Desktop Gadgets are not working properly.
    This is boot camp problem, because in other normal notebooks (e.g. SONY VAIO, Lenovo with Windows 7) the gadgets are working normally.
    I am attaching the screen shot of Desktop Gadgets and Security updates of Windows 7.
    Kindly solve this issue ASAP.

    You are not addressing Apple, but a community of unpaid volunteers. So ASAP won't cut it. Also, you should refrain from posting personal information (like your email address) in the body of your comments, as this is part of the community usage guidelines.
    Have you reinstalled the latest Boot Camp Windows 7 drivers, just in case Microsoft overwrote some of them during the Windows 7 security update?

  • My hard drive won't mount on 2012 mac book pro with retina display

    The flash drive in my Sept 2012 mac book pro with retina display is not mounted, won't mount,  and can't be repaired in disk repair.  I need files created right before it failed last night that were not backed up.  Can they be salvaged before a new warrantied drive is put in at my request?   Also is this failure a common problem?

    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with Wi-Fi on your MacBook Pro.  I would be concerned about this too.

    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

    Did you download and install the Windows Support software? If you did, did you use the Boot Camp Control icon to set up the trackpad how you want it?

  • Why is there lag when I mirror my mac book pro with apple tv

    I bought Apple TV in November 2014 and have been using it with my iphone 6 and my ipad without any problems. I bought a new macbook pro (my old one was  a mid 2010 model so did not have airplay) yesterday and tried mirroring as I was with my iphone and ipad. Every time I tied I experienced a couple of seconds lag, this there anyway to fix this? I currently can't use my apple tv with my laptop as it just doesn't work!

    Hi jmcivor89,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re running into performance issues when using AirPlay Mirroring with your new MacBook Pro. Take a look at the article linked below, it provides a lot of great information and troubleshooting tips that may be able to help you resolve the issue.
    Resolve issues with AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring from iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
    Resolve performance issues with AirPlay or AirPlay Mirroring
    If you are experiencing intermittent playback or significant network lag with AirPlay or AirPlay Mirroring, it could be due to a weak Wi-Fi connection, interference, or the distance between the Wi-Fi router and your iOS device, Apple TV or AirPort Express.
    Try these suggestions:
    Ensure that other devices are not trying to stream to the same Apple TV at the same time.
    Ensure that your Wi-Fi router is set up with the recommended settings for the best performance.
    Certain external devices, such as microwave ovens and baby monitors, may interfere with a Wi-Fi network. Try moving or disabling these devices.
    If possible, try to locate your Wi-Fi router in the same room as your iOS device and Apple TV.
    If your wireless and wired networks are the same, try connecting your Apple TV to the router via Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi.
    If the Wi-Fi router has an external antenna, check to see that is it connected properly and in good condition.
    Use the Wi-Fi network troubleshooting guide to resolve interference and other issues.
    If you are using iTunes, please see these troubleshooting guidelines.
    So long,
    -Jason

  • Why Autocad 3d works slowly in my macbook pro with retina display?

  • Why won't iTunes accept my credit card that is associated with my account, and it is the same card I have used since I opened my account?

    I have been using the same debit/credit card for my iTunes account since I opened it. It would not allow me to make purchases yesterday, saying that my card had been declined. Nothing is wrong with my card (I have used it at other places), and I have double and triple checked the information. Does anyone know if iTunes no longer allows the use of debit/credit cards to make purchases?

    In reading a former reply the replier stated "Make sure you enter the code exactly as it is on your card".  Meaning the 3 digit number on the back of your card not the pass code you enter into an ATM or when making a point of sale purchase in a store.  The security code refers to the number on the back of your card not the pass code you use when making a purchase.
    After making this change my account was set up with no problem.

  • HT3423 My iMac came with logic Express 8 installed, how do I get it to work on my mac book pro

    My iMac came with Logic Express 8 Pre installed. How do I get it to work on my Mac Book Pro

    Along with your OS and applications installation DVDs, you should have gotten an LE8 installation DVD along with its manual and serial numbers when you bought your iMac. 
    Your license allows you to install LE8 on two computers as long as they are your computers, you are the sole user, and you do not run Logic on both simultaneously. So dig out your installation DVD, install it on your MacBook Pro and enter your serial number and you will be good to go.

    You could try updating your apple TV and then restarting it. Bit of a guess.
