Quicktime Player Won't Update

Just bought pro.... and apparently paid for nothing.
Quicktime Player is still quicktime player..... no magical transformation to Quicktime Pro, even though registration info is present and correct.

what is the preferred file format for editing, saving and burning QT movies?
If you are burning movies to iDVD, DVDSP, Toast, etc for playback on commercial DVD player and plan to do the editing in iMovie HD, FCE, or FCP, then it is probably best to convert to DV since that is the compression format in which these applications actually perform their frame level edits. QT Pro will edit any "fully" supported QT format. iMovie '08 will edit in multiple formats but not all of those supported by QT Pro. (I have personally only tested DV, Animation/Integer, MPEG4/AAC, and H.264/AAC in iMovie '08 thus far and have read that MPEG4 with µ-law 2:1 and MPEG1 compression was not compatible.)

  • What version of Quicktime Player X is updated to if updating to 10.7.5?

    Does anyone know what version of Quicktime Player X is updated to when you update the OS to 10.7.5? Currently, I am running Quicktime Player 10.1, but wasn't sure if it would stay at 10.1 or get updated to 10.2.
    Also, has it been verified that Quicktime 10.2 will work on Lion?
    Thanks!

    1. QuickTime Player 10.1.
    2. It won't.

  • Quicktime Player won't play avi files all of a sudden

    All of a sudden Quicktime Player won't play my avi files. They worked previously. I could play them with Quicktime 7 with or without Perian. I'm running 10.6.4.
    They'll run fine on my MacBook and I don't have Perian installed on it.
    Any ideas?

    I just uninstalled Flip4Mac and everything is working as it's supposed to. Very strange. Perhaps a conflict with Perian? But then again, QT didn't play the avi files with Perian installed. So, I guess the conflict is with Flip4Mac and something else.
    Thanks anyway

  • Quicktime player won't open anything. Mac pro

    My quicktime player won't play anything. Need suggestion on what to do.

    Can you launch QT by itself, not clicking first on a file? If so, then use Open and navigate to your file. Do you have any other media players installed (Windows Media Player, Realplayer)? Maybe one of them is set as default. Also browse through the More Like This threads to the right to see what others have tried.

  • My quicktime player won't play any videos on my Mac X os. The video will start on quicktime then automatically start

    My quicktime player won't play any videos on my Mac X os. The video will start on quicktime then automatically start. I installed DiV X today and all this happened is there anyway to fix this?? I went through everything dragging the icon to the trash and deleting it from safari extentions.

    Download and install
    Perian from  http://perian.org/
    You should read this support page  http://perian.org/#support   in case you need to delete older codecs.  In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them), particularly any DivX extension to Safari. However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from  http://www.divx.com/en/software/mac  Note that Perian will be discontinued after the release of Mountain Lion:  http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57434082-263/perian-plug-in-for-quicktime-t o-be-discontinued/?tag=txt;title

  • Quicktime player won't play iMovie 09 export m4v

    I exported a movie from iMovie 09, produced a .m4v file.
    QuickTime Player 7.6.2(518) with QuickTime 7.6.2(1327) plays this with serious stutters in the playback every few seconds.
    Current VLC and Plex play the file back without any problem.
    Is there some update or plugin I need to fix this?
    Thanks --- Sophie

    I find that with recalcitrant .m4v files, re-exporting from the original base file as an H.264 then renaming the file extension as .m4v so as to fit in with the scripting that is automatically generated when exporting with for the web option results in a larger , but generally more compatible file.
    Might cure some of your blues, plus the .m4v is just Apple's .mp4 and Apple's MPEG4 doesn't seem to have the 'common touch' required, all told

  • QuickTime player won't close and won't allow me to shutdown

    I Have a MacBook Pro 11,1 - 2.6 GHz i5...IOS 10.9.5...8 GB memory...1600 MHz DDR3.  My QuickTime v.10.3 won't shutdown and won't  allow me to shutdown my MacBook pro.

    Choose Force Quit from the Apple menu, select the QuickTime Player, and press the Force Quit button. If that doesn't work, save and close everything you can and use the Activity Monitor in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder to force quit the loginwindow process.

  • Quicktime Player won't screen record

    I have Quicktime Player 10.0 (but it doesn't show a "Q" icon - see my other post about this), and Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8).
    When I launch Quicktime Player, I have a selection under "File" for "New Screen Recording", but when I select it, nothing happens.  From what I've reasearched, I'm supposed to get another screen (black, with a red button to start recording), but nothing happens on my screen.  The "New Screen Recording" is now greyed out, but I don't see that it's recording anywhere.
    help?

    I'm having the sam problem!!!! please help because the program I'm useing to create videos won't use any other dvd burner and I'm stuck!!!! I must finish a job and can't!!!!

  • Quicktime Player - won't play movie

    I have a movie file which works on my old 10.6 Snow Leopard machine (it's a m4v file), but Quicktime player under 10.8 refuses to play it. Whenever I try to open it, it complains of a missing codec (but doesn't state what). However I can watch the preview in Quicklook. If I try to watch it in VLC, the sound comes out all distorted and sounds like something from the 80s, while the 10.6 machine plays it nicely.
    I've tried to copy it via various methods incase it's getting corrupted in transit, but I get the same result.
    Any tips or recomendations for a movie player that might play this file?

    Hi Sam,
    .m4v is the format and codec is the component / resource used build the movie i.e m4v is a box that is carrying the movie and the movie was created using codec like MPEG or MPEG2 or H264 and so on...
    http://perian.org try to get this App or http://mplayerx.org/download.html, try to update your VLC player....
    Good luck...

  • Quicktime player won't start, crashes

    I have a computer and it won't run the quicktime player. It starts up and immediately quits. I think it happened during a power outage. I tried trashing the .plist file in preferences. Is there anything else I can do to fix it, it still doesn't work.
    Thanks

    Will QuickTime Player open if you are logged in to a different user account?

  • My Quicktime player won't startup.

    *Can anyone help me please!*
    *If I want to start Itunes it says that it needs Quicktime player to start up (I know that). But the weird thing is my quicktime player is already installed on my pc. And if I start up Quicktime Player it won't start up, and after 30 seconds there comes a message Quicktime Player does not react, do you want to send this rapport or don't you want to send the rapport.*
    *I tried reinstall, compatibility mode, reboots. But it all doesnt work. The same problem I have wil realplayer too.*

    Er is een uitzondering opgetreden tijdens het uitvoeren van C:\WINDOWS\system32\shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL ''C:\Program Files\Quicktime\QTSystem\QuickTime.cpl'',Quicktime
    Thank you!
    It's looking for the QuickTime.cpl in the correct place. So I think we might just be dealing with a badly broken QuickTime.
    Let's try the following procedure. (My apologies, I don't have a Dutch translation for all of this.)
    Download and save a fresh copy of the QuickTime installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install on line and don't start the install just yet.)
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    Sluit QuickTime Player.
    Kies Configuratiescherm in het menu Start.
    Kies Software in het Configuratiescherm.
    Kies QuickTime uit de lijst van momenteel geïnstalleerde programma's en klik vervolgens op Verwijderen.
    Als u wordt gevraagd indien u QuickTime wilt verwijderen, klikt u op Ja.
    Andere vermeldingen van Quicktime in Software (indien aanwezig) moeten ook worden verwijderd.
    Now we'll remove any leftover program files and folders.
    Start de computer opnieuw op.
    Nadat de computer opnieuw is opgestart, opent u Lokaal station (C:) in Computer of het station waarop de programma's zijn geïnstalleerd.
    Open de map Program Files.
    Klik met de rechtermuisknop op de map QuickTime (als die bestaat), kies Verwijderen en kies Ja als u wordt gevraagd het verwijderen te bevestigen. Klik op Doorgaan als er in Windows wordt gevraagd om bevestiging of toestemming.
    Open Lokaal station (C:) in Computer of het station waarop uw besturingsprogramma is geïnstalleerd.
    Open de map Windows.
    Open de map System32.
    Klik met de rechtermuisknop op het QuickTime-bestand (als het bestaat), kies Verwijderen en kies Ja als u wordt gevraagd het verwijderen te bevestigen. Klik op Doorgaan als er in Windows wordt gevraagd om bevestiging of toestemming.
    Klik met de rechtermuisknop op het bestand QuickTime VR (als het bestaat), kies Verwijderen en kies Ja als u wordt gevraagd het verwijderen te bevestigen. Klik op Doorgaan als er in Windows wordt gevraagd om bevestiging of toestemming.
    Klik met de rechtermuisknop op de Prullenbak en klik op Prullenbak leegmaken.
    Start de computer opnieuw op.
    After the PC restarts, do not open any applications. Disconnect from your network and/or the internet. Now switch off all your security software (firewall, antivirus, antispyware).
    Now start the install by doubleclicking the QuickTimeInstaller.exe file you downloaded earlier.
    Reenable all security software prior to reconnecting to your network and/or the internet.
    Does QuickTime launch properly now?

  • QuickTime Player won't play movie bought from iTunes Store.

    Finder's Quick Look says that QT Player can play it. QT Player says to first authorize through iTunes. iTunes says that it's already authorized.
    I've seen the same problem in various places all over the net but it just started happening to me with 10.8.3. Never had a problem in 10.8.2 or earlier. Any ideas on how to fix?

    Some information on Quicktime player. The last two links are you other applications you can download to see if they can play the movie:

    Video Player - Divx

  • Quicktime Player won't clear recently viewed videos?

    Lately, QuicktimePlayer has been unable to clear my recently viewed videos in the "open recent" menu. When this happened a few weeks ago, I deleted the Quicktimeplayer p.list and it solved the problem but now it's happening again. I have tried deleting the p.list again and re-started my computer but quicktime player is still unable to clear my recently viewed videos. Advice please?

    Are you sure that the attachments are safe to open?  Were you expecting them?  You mght try opening them with Flip4Mac, a Windows/Mac app that plays videos.  Look for it on Google.

  • Quicktime player won't play DVCPRO HD clips.

    I noticed on a project I shot that we could not view the Quicktime DVCPRO HD clips I was shooting with the Quicktime player. The clips (every one) would play for maybe 5 to 8 seconds and then stop playing (on a Macbook Pro).
    Now I'm at home on my Dual Quad Core and the exact same thing is occurring.
    Anyone know what the deal is?
    .

    Do you have Quicktime 7 installed? If so, it will be in your Utilities folder. Open the video with Quicktime 7.
    If you don't have Quicktime 7 installed. Open your Snow Leopard installation disk and there should be a folder for additional (programs) installation. Quicktime 7 should be in there.....
