Mac OS 10.4 QuickTime Pro purchased, registered, then "nothing"

Today I purchased QuickTime Pro 7 for Mac OS X online. I have placed the correct information into the preferences/registration area and verified inside of the QuickTime 7.0.1 preference registration area.
The Pro features are not visible (as in "nothing happens"); also, I purchased QuickTime MPEG-2 playback for Mac OS X and again I cannot run it, much less locate the downloaded document.
I know my transactions were completed, as I received acknowledgements via e-mail. I also know I have typed this in correctly. I have not used Quicktime Pro before, but shouldn't some additional features show up?
My goal here is to convert some DVD footage (in VOB format) into Quicktime so that I can drop into iMovie.

You'll probably have more luck getting help if you ask in the QuickTime for Macintosh forum. But if the "Pro" label next to the extra commands is gone, then your copy of QT is registered correctly. Note that QT Player cannot edit multiplexed MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 videos; you have to demultiplex them before importing them into QT.
If that doesn't help, try asking again in the QT for Mac forum.

  • I click on firefox update for Mac OS X 10.6, the screen flashes then nothing happens. Pease help

    There is really nothing else to add, I have tried to download the latest vesion via the email sent to me and going onto the Mozilla web site.

    In addition to Stedman's spot-on reply --
    When you buy an upgrade disk, all updates in that OS can be found on Software Update.
    For instance, I bought Snow Leopard at 10.6.
    All other updates have been free and downloadable.  So I'm not a 10.6.7.
    10.4 (Tiger) went to 10.4.11.
    10.5 (Leopard) went to 1.5.8
    10.6(Snow Leopard) is currently at 10.6.7.
    Now, when Lion come out (the next major upgrade of OSX), I will have to pay to go to 10.7.
    After that, updates are free til 10.8 comes out.

  • Is it possible to register quicktime pro to multiple computers?

    If i previously purchased quicktime pro and registered it to my old computer, is it possible to unregister it and reregister it to my new computer without having to re-buy the software again?

    I'm not a lawyer but what you're doing sounds reasonable.
    If you've purchased retail software (say Photoshop) and bought a new computer you can move it over to the new machine. Why not QuickTime Pro?
    The rules say one computer per Pro registration. Removing it from one and entering it on another is still just one computer.
    Make sure it is for version 7. A version 6 registration will not work.

  • Registered quicktime pro but it won't let me use the fitures, asks me to buy it

    I purchased quicktime pro and registered. It still asks me to purchase when I try to use.

    What I mean is what is happening when you try to buy the movie? Does the cost of the movie exceed to amount of the gift card? Many areas/states/countries add a sales tax or a VAT to the purchase that will exceed the card amount.
    what exactly is happening? Describe?

  • QuickTime Pro? iMovie? iveZeen? BTV Pro?

    I would like some input as to suitable software for my purposes. Eventually I want to make HD digital movies, but as a first step I simply want to explore the possibilities of digital movie making by using the iSight camera on my G5. This is what I want to do at the moment:
    +1. Use my iSight camera to capture up to 90 minutes of footage in one go.+
    +2. Edit and combine that footage with preexisting footage. Nothing fancy, just simple abrupt scene changes.+
    +3. Sound is not essential, but would be good to have to explore the possibilities.+
    It is surprising to me how difficult it is (for me) to do the first step. Here are the difficulties:
    +* The iMovie (version 5) that came with my G5 doesn't recognize the iSight camera;+
    +* BTV Pro accepts input from the camera but seems unable to capture more than a few minutes without problems (it was last updated in 2002 so I suppose its a wonder it works at all);+
    +* iveZeen doesn't allow recording until you purchase a licence -- and I'm not buying sight unseen.+
    So it appears I'm left with two choices (correct me if I'm wrong): buy Quicktime Pro or iLife 2009 so that I can get hold of a version of iMovie that works with my iSight camera.
    For my simple requirements, which is the best way to go at this stage?

    Hello Guy,
    If your Mac is working correctly, QuickTime Pro will do what you want (and MUCH more). I include the caveat because of your statement that your iMovie does not recognize your built-in iSight camera and that you are having problems recording long clips with non-Apple Software.
    All digital video recording places a heavy load on your Mac due simply to the size of the data stream that you are capturing and storing. Do everything you can to lighten your Mac's load while recording video:
      • Quit all apps before launching your digital recording apps.
      • Run only the one app while you are recording.
      • Add RAM if you have not already done so.
      • Make sure that your Mac OS X Maintenance is up to date.
       (10.5 does this for me automatically, but my 10.4 and earlier
       OSX Macs that do not run 24/7 require this maintenance.)
      • Make sure you have LOTS (50-75%) of free disk space
       so disk-writing does not slow your Mac.
    Hopefully, the only reason that your iMovie will not recognize your built-in iSight is that you need a newer version of iLife. As stated in this Apple kBase article, To use the built-in iSight ..., use iMovie HD 6 or later. 
    I think that Apple now sells iLife '09 only. iLife '09 requires that you use Mac OS X 10.5.6 or later, so you will need to look elsewhere for an earlier version of iLife unless you plan to upgrade your Mac OS. At this time, versions earlier than iLife '09 versions are still available from sources other than Apple if you so desire.
    For example, iLife '06 (which contains iMovie HD 6) still shows as available from some internet sources.
    Alternatively, iLife '08, which contains iMovie '08 (version 7.x), is still available at my local Apple resellers and VARs, so you may still be able to find this version in your area. Your iMac G5 (iSight) meets the iLife ’08 system requirements, so iMovie '08 (except for the AVCHD video and 24-bit recording functions, which require an iNtel processor Mac) will work with your G5 iMac (iSight).

  • HT3820 Quicktime pro install unsuccessful

    Bought Quicktime Pro. Registered...  hit (secret) tab key. Logo changed to Pro. BUT I do not see the "Pro" logo in About QuickTime Player. AND I do not have QuickTime Pro available as far as I can see.

    The registration info merely "unlocks" the Pro features found in QuickTime Player 7.
    In all my years of using it I've never had to restart to use the Pro features.

  • Quicktime Pro problems, involving Error -43 and disappearing files

    I'm very confused, and I'm hoping someone can help me. Right now I'm in the process of trying to get my Quicktime Pro movies to my Ipod (in iTunes), but it hasn't been working for me. Hopefully I can get some insight here.
    What I do is, I download the MPEG4 video files and they open up in Quicktime Pro. I then click "Export" and choose Video to iPod. I then choose a destination, and re-name the file if I want (I usually rename it, and send it either to my desktop or My documents). After it's exported, it SHOULD appear in that place, and about 30% of the times it does, the other times it just disappears. However, after I'm done dragging it to iTunes, I then want to take it off my desktop, so I've been putting all of the video files into a folder I created in My documents. Now, they DO load onto my Ipod and iTunes, but when I want to play them in iTunes, it does the whole "Error 43- File could not be found" when I know for SURE it's still on my computer. And if I want to play that certain video file again on Quicktime, when I search for it the files arn't even there, yet when I go in manually I see them.
    Some theories I have: When I export the files from Quicktime to iPod, I usually rename the file. Does this affect anything?
    My iTunes IS NOT set to manually manage music and videos, maybe I should reset that?
    One thing I am curious about, is when I put the exported video files into a folder on my computer, the little icon that comes up for them is the Windows Media Player Icon. This may just be because I'm using a Windows PC, but who knows.
    I really hope someone has ideas on what I'm doing wrong, I'd really appreciate some help. Or if someone would walk me step-by-step through the process of Quicktime ---> iPod, that would be wonderful also.

    The only time I have experienced error- 43 file could not be found was when having a drive named in a way that QT could not read from. For example (F:\F:\), drive named (F:\) QT could then play. Kirkster points out something interesting in this link on how the error 43 can also be generated:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1151490&tstart=15
    Changing the name of a file should not prevent QT from playing the file, it is unusual to have a WMP logo on the file, what is showing when right clicking and Properties?
    It is difficult to understand your post, your all over the place at once on the computer.

  • Quicktime Pro Video to iPod Problem-desperate

    I know a lot of dicussions have touched on this, but no matter how much I look I cannot find an answer to my problem of the video from my digital camera via Qicktime Pro 7 not exporting to a movie format on my hard drive. I export it, a file appears on desktop and then I double click it to check it. Then Windows says that it needs me to choose a program. I choose Quicktime Pro 7. Then I get a message saying file isn't a movie. Please help a brother here. Thanks!!!

    Stephen
    Check the Properties of your converted movie in Quicktime Pro 7.
    It should look something like this :
    http://www.arc-facilities-edinburgh.co.uk/ipod/settings.jpg
    This is from a converted movie which plays in iTunes and loads to the iPod fine.
    Note you should have one video track encoded in H264 up to 768 kilobits per second and one audio track encoded in AAC up to 160 kilobits per second
    Alternatively you can use mp4 (MPEG-4) for your pictures up to 2.5 megabits per second
    Let us know if your movie properties are any different.
    regards

  • I purchased Quicktime Pro, unable to register on my mac

    Quicktime icon does not appear in my system preferences. I've got Quick Time in my applications that I can not trash. Quick Time Player 7 in my Utilities folder. What am I missing

    I tried the tab key and the Buy Quicktime Pro disappeared. Quicktime Pro Registreation box is open with my registration info and no option to click on anything.
    Why do you want to "click on anything?" If the registration entries are accepted, simply close the window, open a file, and test the newly activated features. If you want more information, READ THIS ARTICLE paying particular attention to the "Additional Information" section which describes the registration procedure.
    Another question
    Why is it that the Quicktime icon does not show in my system preferences..
    This mode of registration access has been removed—probably to avoid user confusion on systems having both QT X and QT 7 installed since "Pro" registration is local to the QT 7 app only.

  • I purchased a quicktime pro license for PC, but I can't find where to register in Quicktime 7...there's no registration option in the file menu

    I purchased a quicktime pro for windows, but I can't find a registration option in the quicktime player 7 file menu.  How do I register?

    Thanks Kirk...found it buried in Edit, Preferences.

  • QuickTime Pro - I am trying to find a way to retrieve my Quick Time Pro code and re-register it but, because I bought it more than 180 days ago, I cannot find the code anywhere, or any way to get an answer from Apple's website.

    I have been going round in circles, trying to resolve this
    I bought the MPEG2 component from the Apple UK store on 4th July 2010. I still have the email and the order number but they are no use to me because it is more than 180 days since I ordered this from them.
    My operating system got corrupted and I had to do a clean install, then a return of the relevant files, folders and applications from my Time Machine. With that should have been my MPEG2 component for QuickTime Pro but it refuses to register.
    I need it to convert my videos taken on my older video camera, which is a Sony, using mpeg2. I cannot look at any of these videos any more, which is deeply irritating. Still lots of editing to do.
    I think it is a bit off if I have to buy it all over again
    Any ideas?

  • Can't register my quicktime pro

    I have quicktime 7 installed and when I use my registration # to register Pro nothing happens

    I have quicktime 7 installed and when I use my registration # to register Pro nothing happens
    Is the purchased key for the correct platform? (I.e., Windows keys don't work on Macs and vice versa.) Is the "Registered To" entry entered exactly as the name under which it was purchased? (I.e., salutaions and suffixes are significant if used in the purchaser's account name.) Was the key entgered or copied exactly as contained in the confirmation email?
    What does "noting happens" mean to you? Did the QT icon change (have Pro superimposed on it), do the "grayed out" options become available if you load a file, do you have access to the "Properties" window, etc? (I.e., in some cases users have avctivated their Pro key but did not recognize this fact for one reason or another.)

  • I must be clueless...just purchased quicktime pro...need some help

    so I just purchased quicktime pro...I purchased it on my work computer, because I was bored...and figured I would take the code home, and put it on my mac book. I didn't put the code or key on my work computer at all.
    I guess my question is do I need the internet to activate my quick time pro at home? because I don't have the internet at home. I know I know...everyone does.
    I did go to a coffee shop where they have wireless and I put the numbers in (on my mac book), and it didn't do anything...it just highlighted the code, and that is it. does it install anywhere that I can physically see? or does it just turn on the quicktime pro features?

    I'm thinking I put the code in my mac book, and figured I needed to see something visual installing and didn't realize that it just turns it on.
    Actually, there are a number of indicators. If you open the "Register" tab in "QuickTime Preferences...", you should see that your registration number remains as entered. (Should have been erased if your entries are rejected.) In addition, it should now say "QuickTime Pro 7" below your registration number. If you open the "About QuickTime Player" menu option, the QT blue "Q" should now have the word "Pro" superimposed on it. Lastly, all of the menu options that were previously grayed/covered by the word "Pro" are now working.
