How to downgrade to earlier version of Quicktime?

I've been having trouble with awful stuttering in iMovie 4. In another thread ("video stutter in very simple video project") it was suggested that iMovie4 does not run with QuickTime 7 (although they were bundled in my new OSX) and to downgrade to QuickTime 6. Having tried all other recommendations to no avail, I want to try the downgrade. Does anyone know how to do this? Or have any other information on this problem?

t was suggested that iMovie4 does not run with QuickTime 7 (although they were bundled in my new OSX) ...G3, 400 MHz, 576mb Ram, 80GB HD Mac OS X (10.3.9)
afaik, it is recommended to use
10.3.x + QT 6.x + iM≤5
or....
10.4.x + QT 7.x + iM 6
plus, read the "recommended" hardware specs to run all the new, shiny software components.. I would NOT install 10.4/QT7 on an "antiqué" G3/400 ... I too own an old iBook G3/400.. with 10.3/QT6 and iM4...- works like charm, no need to upgrade ...
Golden Rule No. 11:
Never Change A Running System
.. and as Sue said: no way to downgrade from QT 7.02 .. only "escape" would be a clean reinstall from original, "old" installer disks ...
stuttering could have many other reasons ...
* your Macs 80GB could be crowded/full ... you should allways keep 10 - 15GB free while working with video...
* and, iM Grandmaster Karl Petersen made some observations, concerning "too many audio edits" in iMprojects.., long but helpful read here:

  • "HOW TO DOWNGRADE TO EARLIER VERSION OF MAPS AND M...

    Given the issues persisting with the latest versions, please let us know here if you found out how this can be done.
    Thanks
    Ben

    SUCCESS! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! (please keep reading there is a question at the end)
    AW 6.2.9 is now on my G4.
    Because of the way the Apple consultant at the Apple store set up our HDs when he installed Tiger for us, we had 2 copies already of AW 6.1. (We work from 3 external LaCie HDs)
    I only updated the 6.1 that lives in Tiger. I left the other as is at 6.1 since I know it will open the older docs that I have and need there in OS 9. And it had a translator bundled in (by Dataviz if I recall) for other formats - I'm not sure if this nice feature still exists in the update.
    The installer said it would install 6.2.8 (??) in OS 9 and 6.2.9 in OS X. But because I chose the AW 6 folder that lives in the X HD for the install, it only could access that and left the other alone.
    MY NEW QUESTION:
    The font list is quite short. I really don't use a lot of fonts, but do favour Verdana which is not in the list. Any clues on this?
    Thank you all again so much for your help with this problem,

  • How can you tell what version of Quicktime you have?

    How do you determine what version of Quicktime you have on your computer? What version do you need for a new 30G Video iPod? How do you upgrade versions, if necessary?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    iPod mini for windows   Windows XP  

    Open a QT document and use the Help menu, where you should see an item labeled (I believe) About Quicktime Player. That should tell you the version running the player.
    You need QT Pro and QT 7 to have a preset for iPod video. You probably can use QT 6 if you use these settings in making an mpeg-4 video:
    "MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480x480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats<<
    QT 7 is available for download from the Apple site by clicking on
    "Quicktime" in the Purple banner above

  • How do you install earlier versions of Firefox, specifically 1.5 or 2.0?

    I need Firefox 1.5 or 2.0 because it is the only version compatible with what I need but it will only let me install the latest version. How do I install earlier versions?

    On A Mac you can only install one Firefox version at the time.
    So if you really need an older version then try the portable version:

  • How can  get an earlier version of my LDM ???

    Hi,
    we come to one issue:
    say we modify LDM at Nov 1th, and modify LDM at Nov 2th,but after commit what we did at Nov1th,and Nov 2th, we find there are 'mistakes' in Nov 2th,
    how can we get an earlier version of LDM?(in our case, we want revert to version Nov 1th).
    we use SDDM Version 3.1.1.703,and we share the project under subversion managed.
    more questions:
    (under subversion managed SDDM projet)
    1.what is best praise of backup in case we do something wrong and want rollback whole change to previous version?
    2.how to do that ,is there any document guide ?(I searched this forum, seems not find similar topic)
    Thanks,
    Jinbo

    Thanks Philip,
    now we can see the old reversion.
    but new issue comes.
    say two users:user1 & user2 are working on the LDM, and remote directory called LDM_remoate
    at Nov 2th,
    user1 have a latest local working copy under his machine directory LDM_local_user1
    user2 have a latest local working copy under his machine directory LDM_local_user2
    At Nov3th,
    user2 found some mistakes when user1 checked in at Nov 1th,so user2 want to get a earlier version say Nov 1 th,
    according to your guide, user2 get the design reversion number Nov 1th, and re check out at new working copy(Nov 1th) under new local directory:LDM_local_user2_new
    when user2 open LDM_local_user2_new, it indeed come back to version Nov 1th,
    but in the incoming change window, it still show many incoming changes,
    how to make the remote LDM_remote to become like LDM_local_user2_new? so that user1 only need check incoming change from LDM_remote as usual to make at local copy
    LDM_local_user1 also reverted to version Nov 1th?
    hope I make it clear to you.
    thanks,
    Jinbo

    how do I download an earlier version iTunes

    Presuming that by Pretoria you mean South Africa, you will need to import CDs into iTunes or purchase music from some other source, if any exist in SA. Apple has not at this been able to offer music for sale in your country. You can find a list of what content is available to you in the iTunes Store on this web page:

  • How to downgrade my firmware version after a "succesful" update?

    Dear Macusers,
    Is there any way to downgrade my firmware version from 1.5.1 to a lower version? Even if my firmware update has been applied succesfully? I cannot use just the firmware restore CD because that is for an interupted or failed update.
    Greetings,
    Tim

    Hello,
    Many thanks for your reply. Yesterday I posted a topic about this problem with some more details. I hope this may help.
    +"Since today my trackpad and keyboard doesn't response anymore. This problem started after I exit from sleep mode. Then I get a security form where I can enter my password, but I couldn't. So I restarted my macbook pro for about 5 times, removed my adapter and battery, but it doesn't work.+
    +After that I went to iFactory and they said it is apparently because of my latest firmware update 1.5.1. But why does this happen a week after I installed this update? Anyway, he suggested me to downgrade my firmware version with a firmware restore CD. Well it sounded as an straightforward and easy solution until I read that the restoration CD doesn't work when the firmware update already has been applied correctly.+
    +I have read some other topics about keyboard issues and some points are relevant for me:+
    +I'm be able to use an external USB mouse and keyboard.+
    +At system profile by USB, only my iSight, Bleutooth USB host controller and external USB devices are displayed.+
    +The keyboard background light works properly+
    +This problem happens all of a sudden without intervals or strange behavior.+
    +Using Leopard (10.5.2) and Windows XP via bootcamp+
    +I hope I can solve this problem really quick because I need my Macbook Pro badly for my study. Thanks in advance for studying my problem.+

  • Satellite P100-324: How to downgrade BIOS to version 2.40

    I have the Toshiba Satellite P100-324 with BIOS version 3.30. I need to downgrade BIOS to version 2.40 because it help with stuttering problem when playing games on Windows Vista. But the problem is the version 2.40 is unavailable at Toshiba Europe website (I'm from Russia). I have found this version (one mate gave it to me), but it is for P105 models (US version).
    The question is - can I use US version of BIOS 2.40 for my european P100? Is it compatible?

    Hi guys
    I found this very interesting discussion and I have to clarify something.
    You dont need to update the BIOS to another version to play the different games on the Vista OS.
    The games couldnt run properly due to the Vista OS.
    Several weeks ago Microsoft has published and hotfix which solves some problems with the Multi GPU support on Vista. It was useful for users which use the gamer computer with 2 GPUs
    http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B936710
    Now the Microsoft has published and patch which solves the problems with the virtual address space usage. This was a reason why some games crashed or didnt run smoothly.

  • How to keep an earlier version of AW in case update causes problems?

    I have several ideas on how to make this update less of a problem just in case I can't access older docs. Is any of these solutions workable?
    Is it possible to burn a useable CD of my current AW 6 folder in case the update to 6.2.9 doesn't work - or doesn't open older documents that my current version does open?
    Could I then run AW directly from this CD to access the older docs if they can't be opened from the update? (even though a newer version -6.2.9 - of AW would be installed in X?)
    OR can I reinstall AW 6 (into my OS 9 startup disk) from my original AW install disk to access the older versions?
    OR yet another idea, could I duplicate my current AW 6 folder and leave one AW 6 folder in the Applications (Mac OS 9) folder and move another to Applications folder in X. Then, I could do the update app in the X folder and test if the old documents still open. Then I can just delete the duplicated folder which I left in OS 9. OR will having 2 AW 6 folders cause confusion when I do the update? I assume the single user legal issue is OK with 2 AW folders on my computer for a few hours.
    Thanks for your input,
    Mrs H

  • Downgrading to earlier version of device software

    I upgraded the device software on my Curve 8520 today to the 5.0 Bundle 1626 version and I really don't like it. I tried to do the downgrade to my previous software wirelessly but the phone isn't giving me the option...can anyone walk me thru doing the downgrade using my desktop software?

    http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    That portal provides you with all of the official releases from all carriers. There is no other official site to obtain OS packages from. Further, anything not from that portal could be considered a "leaked" version...which would likely be, by definition, not stable. The carriers control the OS versions they support and only offer those via the download portal. Naturally, they must declare end of life to older OS levels as newer OS levels come into existence. Typically, a carrier will keep a couple of OS levels per device active, but that's totally at their discretion.
    Good luck!
