I recently upgraded to Lion but Quicktime is still running the previous version. I.e. not Quicktime version 7. How do I upgrade Quicktime?
I recently upgraded to Lion 10.7.1. I understand that Quciktime 7 is part of the OS. For some reason it did not upgrade and I am left running Quicktime 10.1. I can't see QT 7 available for download, how do I get it?
Many thanks.

Is it possible to get the system to Prefer QT 7 Player?
I am happy to never use QT X again.
When you start QT 7 player, under the first menu there is a "Registration" menu item.
Enter your name and Registration code, THEN hit the TAB KEY. Do not click the "Buy..." button.
That should do it.
Make sure you have the CORRECT version of QT 7:

I want to upgrade to lion, but I am currently running leopard 10.5.8. What do I have to do to upgrade?

Yes I meet the system requirements
OK...
Contact Apple in your Country to Purchase a Snow Leopard Disc...
And the Download Code for Lion...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
After the Successful Install of SL... Run Software Update and Update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8...
Next go to the Mac App Store and Purchase Lion... Using your Download Code...
BUT...
Before attempting any Major Upgrade... get yourself an External Hard Drive... and create a Bootable Clone Backup of your current Hard Drive...
By far the easiest way to make such a Backup, is to use something like
SuperDuper http://www.shirt-pocket.com/
or CCC http://www.bombich.com/
That way, should anything untoward happen during the Upgrade,
You will NOT LOSE ANYTHING.
(Get an EHD that is at least equal to your current Drive...)
You will also need more RAM... Get the Maximum you can for your Mac...
It is important to get the Correct and Matching RAM
See Here > OWC RAM > http://www.macsales.com/
Lastly... with regards to Lion...
Check here for compatibility of 3rd party Software you may be using...

Firefox says the automatic update is done, but I am still running the old version.
My Firefox is set up to automatically update. When it asks, I say yes, it says it is done, but the new version isn't running. I t has done this many times and I'm still on Version 3.6. How do I get the updates to really work?
You are using the latest version which is Firefox 9.0.1
From your description it sounds as if you still have the old http://www.google.com/firefox Firefox start pages hosted by Google as your homepage. This old default homepage is no longer used as about:home has been in use since Firefox 4.0
Either ignore the message, change homepage to '''about:home''', change it to another page or leave blank.

I have a MacBook and I recently upgraded to Lion, but I can't do everything Lion has to offer. For example I can't do the 3 finger slide up gesture to go to mission control it won't go? Why?
To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier.
For MacBooks it's only the Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 model 6,1 and Mid 2010 model 7,1 White Unibody that have the multi-touch trackpad. -

iPhoto says it won't import photos from my Fujifilm Finepix S1000 camera because it's the wrong format (jpeg). It always has before... but I upgraded to Lion then went back to Snow Leopard and now it's not working. Suggestions? Thanks!
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there? -
I recently updated to Lion, but lost iSync that I use to sync Outlook with iCal. Can't seem to find out to get it back. When I try to download from a third party site, I get a message that a newer version has already been installed. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.This article would appear to provide a solution:

i have just bought my first mac and have been told in pc world that i can get a free upgrade to lion, but it would appear that this is only for those in the u.s. and canada. is this true? also from reading the discussions it seems that lion is not a good thing. i am already regretting my decision to go to a mac.
I have found that both Linux and Mac (unix) are capable of reading "deep" folders while win 32 will have issues, your it people are clearly wrong. I run a network with both win/mac. And as long as the win servers/pc's that have shares are set to allow apple file sharing in their folder properties. And the macs are set to allow smb there should absolutely no trouble with you accessing anything across the platforms, heck, from a Mac to a win pc on some occasions you don't even need to include a "domain" name to log on to, and you can create aliases and make your own shortcuts etc... So you don't have to manually connect each time you boot up etc... But that's all personal preferences I suppose.
All I can tell you is that, I do it on a daily basis managing a small business. So your answer is yes you can. -
Apple sent me a disc for Snow Leapord so I could upgrade to Lion, but the disc won't install. Anyone else have that problem? How do i solve? Can't move to I cloud until it is done.
Hold c and reboot off the 10.6 disk, run the installer.
If the machine your upgrading is the 2006, I'd highly advise you stay on 10.6.8
It's a 5 year old machine, you're in the last life stages of that machine and 10.7 will push it right over the edge.
10.6 is a GOOD upgrade for that machine, faster than 10.7 or 10.5.
And 10.6 will run your 10.5 software, 10.7 will not.
Get iCloud with a new 10.8 machine coming out after this summer, seriously.
Your machine is too old to bother with Lion.
Or else you can learn yourself and use this link to get back to Snow, good luck finding your 10.5 programs.
How to revert your Mac to Snow Leopard -
I want to upgrade to Lion but hav ebeentold I can't because I have a G5 non intel based system. If this is true can I change the motherboard and install Lion
If you are running Snow Leopard OS 10.6 you do not have a PPC Mac as they cannot run it, so you already have an Intel Mac. The question is, which one?
Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, runing the latest version of Snow Leopard. The Lion upgrade can be installed on all your authorized personal Macs.
But in any case you cannot replace the motherboard with a different one in any Mac. -
I currently have Snow Leopard and am thinking of upgrading to Lion but have heard some bad things about it. Should I upgrade or not? What do you like/dislike about Lion?
It is indeed all down to what you need to do with your machine. Snow leopard is an excellent OS and as Baltwo suggests you have to check out your current apps and programs because PPC won't work on any higher OS than the one you have.
Andy's comment is very interesting and, I suspect, insider knowledge based Certainly I would wait for Mavericks now it is on the horizon ... and then add six months or so for the bugs to be ironed out.
Good luck, whatever you do. I'm staying with Snow Leopard. -
Upgraded to lion but now can not run parallel desktop.
upgraded to lion but now can not run parallel desktop. The message show can not load parallel drivers.
Anyone can solve it?Do you have Parallels Desktop 6? That is the version you need to have it run under Lion.
