After upgrade, why does QuickTime require Rosetta?

I just finished installing the SL upgrade. Basically just clicked continue to install it with the default options. Once it was finished I tried launching QuickTime Player from the Applications folder. I got a message stating that the QuickTime Player needs Rosetta. I thought SL included a new QuickTime. Why would the new QT require Rosetta? Is something wrong and how do I fix it?
Thanks!

Maybe it's a corrupted QT preference file.
Locate this file.
com.apple.quicktimeplayer.plist
/Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag that file to the Trash, empty the Trash and restart your Mac.
If that doesn't help. Right or control clic the QT application icon. Then click; Get Info
In the Get Info window you can select: Open in 32-bit mode.

  • After upgrading why does it take 5 minutes to connect to my Go Daddy email account.?

    When I log on to my GoDaddy email account, it takes almost 5 minutes for it to connect. Before I installed the updated version, it would take perhaps 1 minute. Is there some setting that needs to be modified so that the time is less?

    I am going to reply to my own post. My son schooled me on bluetooth, never turn it off and it is always on. That said, I admit I am a fool at times. This magic trackpad is absolutely awesome, so much so I purchased him one. I find myself addicted to it. Sweet.

  • Why does quicktime run like crap?

    Why does quicktime run like crap, skips frames like crazy? If I install xvid codecs instead and play the movies in windows media player they play without a glitch. Why is that? I'm must say I'm not impressed with the first apple software I've tried. Also another annoying thing... I don't want iTunes and all the other crap with it! Just quicktime. Also almost all the menu's are blocked with pro upgrade.... do apple customers have to buy quicktime pro as well?

    Impossible to say, "allp", without knowing anything about your system, the version of QT you're running, nor the movies you're trying to play and from what medium you're playing them. QT movies work just fine on my Dell Dimension 8200 (specific specs on request).
    You can download QuickTime alone, without iTunes, here.
    And yes, the menus involved with editing and exporting will almost all be nonfunctional until you buy the Pro upgrade. And it's the same with Macs as with Windows; we all have to purchase the Pro upgrade to get that functionality.

    Why does Quicktime tell me it can't play certain videos created with my Phantom 2 v3 drone ? I fly the drone and switch back and forth from video to still pics and while I may have filmed four videos , sometimes Quicktime tells me that one of them can't be played . Checking the info shows that each of the unplayed videos was saved in the same mp4 format as the playable ones yet some of my most important videos won't play . It's getting very frustrating .

    first; I use Perian, that helps even though it is no longer supported, (must have for avi files)
    the apple-cores at apple have gotten very sloppy -- quicktime is a bit finicky and flakey. 
      example,   occasionally (when copy file from quad's card to hard drive)  the avi will show up as a 'mov' file and qt plays it no problem and no conversion.
    but that is very occasionally,  most of the time qt won't convert the file,   -- iMovie won't open an avi without Perian installed  ,  I don't know how that effects qt.
    qt 7"pro" is no good either, (qt 10 does everything it does and for NOT the extra $35)  
    I have gone to VLC  and MPlayerX  for direct playback for drones and cameras.  

  • Why does quicktime only export audio

    Why does Quicktime only export audio when exporting .mov files? I used to do it all the time with this same version. Now it doesn't work. I see a lot of other posts asking the same question and no answers.

    Why does Quicktime only export audio when exporting .mov files? I used to do it all the time with this same version. Now it doesn't work. I see a lot of other posts asking the same question and no answers.
    MOV files are audio and/or video content wrapped in an MOV file container. The first step in solving your problem would be to determine what codec components were used to create the source files and then determine if they are still supported by you current system configutation and/or conversion work flow.

  • Why does Apple require ISBNs when Amazon and B&N don't?

    I'm sure this has been discussed, perhaps someone could point me to an answer.
    Why does Apple require an ISBN when Amazon and B&N's digital stores don't. In many ways this eliminated many individuals or small presses from selling their books on iTunes. Does Apple specifically not want those not alligned with pre-digital publishing to be able to sell books on iTunes? Perhaps there is something I'm missing here.

    Fabini, by the fact that I've uploaded and sold dozens of eBooks on Amazon and B&N without ISBN numbers. They both don't require them for eBooks.
    As per Amazon: “An ISBN (International Standard Book Number) is not required to publish content with Kindle Direct Publishing. Once your content is published on the KDP web site, Amazon.com will assign it a 10-digit ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number), which is unique to the eBook, and is an identification number for the Kindle Book on Amazon.com. If you already have an ISBN for your eBook, you’ll be able to enter it during the publishing process. Do *not* use an ISBN for the print book edition.”
    As per barnesandnoble.com's PubIt!: “You do NOT need an ISBN to sell your eBook through PubIt!. If you don’t have an ISBN, just tell us that you don’t have one by answering No when prompted. In that case, Barnes & Noble will assign an internal 13-digit identifier to your title for you when you submit the title to go on sale.”
    Apple is the only of the "big three" eBook distributers that requires an ISBN and that is a bad call and reduces that "democratic" power of eBook publishing. I hope they change the policy soon. Anyone know who the best person to email about this issue would be?

  • Why does Quicktime 7.1 Pro stop playing my .MID files after only 30-40 secs

    My MIDI files have the sustain pedal permanently depressed, and after 30 - 40 seconds, Quicktime 7.1 Pro goes silent when replaying them. This does not happen on other computers such as Windows XP using a Soundblaster card. I assume that it is a fault with Quicktime. If I click on pause, then play, then playback resumes for a while and then cuts out again.

    More details. Running on Windows, CPU usage climbs steadily to 100% then the music cuts out. CPU usage remains at 100%. Running on a MacBook, CPU usage climbs to 25%, then the music cuts out. CPU usage remains at 25% until the end of the MIDI playback. This problem applies to Quicktime for Macintosh and Quicktime for Windows.

  • Trying to Burn MP3 CD - Why Does it Require So Many CDs?

    I imported a bunch of my daughter's CDs as MP3 files. When I was done, I created a playlist in iTunes and moved all the MP3 files into it. iTunes tells me that I have 304 songs in the playlist, taking up 696.8 Mb. I then tried to burn the entire playlist to CD, but in the course of the burn iTunes told me that the burn would span CDs. After inserting my 4th CD, I stopped the process.
    I might be able to understand why this would take 2 CDs (even though I used a 700Mb CD), but why did it require so many more? More importantly, how do I set up iTunes so I can import around 600 Mb of MP3 songs onto only one CD? This would seem to me to be a pretty common process, but iTunes is giving me fits!
    Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
    TIA!
    Scott

    I have read many threads about similar situations and the only thing I can suggest is buy "music pro cd-r's". My friend and I had the same problem and that solved it, hope it does for you too.

  • Does FCP7 require Rosetta?

    I just purchased a MacPro 6 core Westmere 3.33 GHz. I have FCS2, which goes to FCP 6.0.6.
    Just tried to install on OX10.6.4 upgraded to 10.6.5 which came with my machine. Says I need to install Rosetta first before I install FCP.
    Do I have to install Rosetta if I upgrade to FCS3 (FCP 7)?
    Any problems running FCP 6.0.6 on 10.6.5, assuming I can live without the extras in FCP7?
    Thanks.
    Sharon

    FCP6 is Universal Binary - the install disks contain a version that will run on PPC or Intel processors. Rosetta is apparently required by the Installer. After that, Rosetta is not required to run the FCS suite of programs.
    FCS3 (FCP7) is Intel only (not Universal Binary) and I would expect the installer to not require Rosetta.

  • What is the privacy policy of Home Sharing? Why does it require an AppleID?

    Do devices using Home Sharing upload any usage information--or for that matter, any data at all--about the files being shared, or the libraries to which they have access? Why is an AppleID required, rather than, for instance, any made-up shared key, the way the Windows Homegroup works?

    Please see my post above.
    As far as I can fathom...Apple TV needs permanent Internet connection else it stops. Whilst it may not actively use the connection 100% of time whilst playing (although I do not know this for sure) as soon az the internet goes down so does the Home Sharing and as Apple TV is reliant on Home Sharing and willonly share content via Home Sharing then Apple TV needs permanent Internet.
    Also cannot even turn on Apple TV unless it is connected to the network and this does not mean Wifi only it means Wifi with internet sharing turned on.
    No one has been able to tell me how they run Apple TV without permanent internet connection.
    No one has been able to tell me how they start Apple TV without internet connection.
    No one has been able to tell me how, once Apple TV up and running and internet drops out, how they maintain the Apple TV connection.
    Again I ask why does Apple TV need a Permanent Internet Connection?

  • After upgrade firefox does not ask for restart

    On Linux Mint when Firefox is opened and meanwhile operating system package manager upgrades Firefox, then FF does not notify me that it needs restart.
    I notice it since some extension stops working. Later I have checked package manager logs and see, that FF had been updated. Wasn't in older versions so that FF notified me that restart is needed for firefox?
    Is it a bug or I have some setting missing. I need notification window be visible as long as user closes it or firefox is restarted...

    Looks like that yea. I found out that for Ubuntu there is xul-ext-ubufox package which should do almost needed thing. I will install it into mint.

    * Display a restart notification after upgrading Firefox

    Why does a browser require fine location information? This might raise privacy concerns.

    Found it:

    No. Firefox only requests a location when a website makes a request, and only shares your location when the user has approved the request. Firefox does not track or remember your location as you browse
