QuickTime Pro 7 vs QuickTime X

I downloaded QuickTime Pro 7, only to find that I have QuickTime 10 on my computer. I can't use it to register QuickTime 7 Pro, and it won't let me uninstall QuickTime 10 so I can install QuickTime 7. I just wasted $30. Is there anything I can do?

You can install BOTH Quicktime X and Quicktime 7.

I can't register Quicktime Pro with Quicktime 7

I am having a problem registering Quicktime Pro, in order to upgrade from Quicktime 7. I have purchased the software and have typed reg name and code properly but it won't send after I typed it in. Any help?

Just press the Tab key after entering in the registration name and code.

Registering Quicktime Pro to Quicktime 6

hey, I just purchased a product key for quicktime pro, but I only have OSX so I cant install quicktime 7. Can I still upgrade to pro? When I try to upgrade it says my information is invalid...
Quicktime Version is 6.5.2
Thanks.

Thanks Niel. I got it working, only now I am not able to do what I originally set out to do. I shot a short film this summer on a Sony HDV camera, 720p. I am trying to play the footage back on my computer, and an apple employee told me to purchase quicktime pro 7, which i have done... still unable to play back the footage. Any ideas??

QuickTime Pro for Quicktime 10?

Does anyone know if there's a Pro version fo the new QT? I need the export formatting capabilities I had on version 7. Also is there a way to reinstall the old version of Qt on snow leopard si I can use it?

Does anyone know if there's a Pro version fo the new QT?
There isn't.
Also is there a way to reinstall the old version of Qt on snow leopard si I can use it?
The old version of it will be in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder if you previously had a QuickTime Pro key or chose it as a custom install component.

Quicktime Pro won't open an MPEG movie file with the Quicktime icon

What am I missing? Not getting? I have several MPEG movie files that proudly sport the Quicktime icon, but the Quicktime app tells me they're not movie files.
If Quicktime won't open them, is there conversion software I can use?
So much for productivity.

Didn't even consider it. I thought that because the file displayed the Quicktime icon and because I have Quicktime Pro, that Quicktime would play the file.
Unfortunately, this is a common misconception. However, now that you understand the problem, you can work on a solution. Basically, if by MPEG your are referring to common MPEG-2/MP2 content 'multiplexed" to an MPEG container, these can be played in the QT Player (or Front Row or iTunes) if you install the QT MPEG-2 Playback component ($19.99). However, be advised that this is a video only component, so it does not make "muxed" AC3 MPEG-2 files playback compatible with the QT player. Luckily, if you do decide to install this component, the free MPEG Streamclip application will allow you to play or convert such files to any QT compatible audio and video format for which you system is configured. Or, if all you want to do is play MPEG-2 video files without investing in the QT component, then you can view them with VLC but may have trouble converting them to a QT compatible format. HandBrake will also convert them without investing in the MPEG-2 component, but greatly limits your conversion possibilities. I personally would recommend buying the component as Neil recommended since it offers the greatest flexibility for playing without conversion, as well as, the most conversion options for all normal MPEP-2 Program and Transport Stream files you are likely to encounter using QT 7 Pro and/or MPEG Streamclip depending on the specific source content what you want to do with the final files.

Quicktime Pro Windows 7 not saving

I have a valid registration code, and name, that I am entering exactly as it was purchased. The code, when entered, validates, and changes from "Buy QuickTime Pro" to "QuickTime Pro 7". That said, none of the Pro features are available. When I go back to the registration preference, the information is empty and I need to re-enter it. The information isn't being saved, though it is valid.
I am running QuickTime 7.7.5, and Windows 7 (because my government job is anti-Apple hardware...) Is there a place where it is failing to connect to a server, or is there a registry where this information is supposed to be getting saved, but isn't. I've been on phone support for 2 hours with 4 different people, none fo them could assist me.

Unsure about why it's not remembering Time and Date but as for ethernet, in your setup WiFi seems to be your default. Change the default to ethernet. But that doesn't work so try disabling the Wifi card in Device Manager. Obviously, ethernet IS working so I don't know why your changes are not recorded.
Which Boot Camp drivers did you install? Maybe you could look at updating these if they are not the latest, 3.0.1 from the Snow Leopard DVD.
I suppose I should say here that I have neither of these problems with Win7. Unfortunately, I don't have my W7 machine here to check my details.

Registration for Quicktime Pro won't open

New mac and installed QuickTime 7.6.6 (rather than 10) and Preferences or Registration simply won't open. Trying to register QuickTime Pro. Any suggestions?

Need advice/help on Quicktime Pro

Hi. I'm trying to help a friend with a video project and I'm having a bunch of trouble. I've been using a variety of software, but I'm hoping that Quicktime Pro (Quicktime 7) can do what I want.
Here's the situation:
My friend has a five minute audio file that he wants to upload to YouTube. He also wants a still image to appear while the audio plays.
I created the image for him in Photoshop Elements - it was a doctored photo of two people. When I added the photo (a PNG) into Imovie 11, the image quality of the photo looked worse. The photo looked "softer" (it was less sharp) and the contrast was lower. However, I uploaded it to YouTube anyway, as a test. The finished video on YouTube looked even worse -- the colors were all orangey.
However, the orangey issue was less important than the softness issue. So, I decided to see if Quicktime Pro could do what I want. I own it, but I've barely used it. So, I opened the photo in Quicktime Pro and it looked just fine -- exactly as it had in Photoshop Elements. I then recorded myself using my Mac's microphone just to create an audio file to add the to the still image. I opened that audio file in Quicktime Pro, then copied and pasted the audio into the movie containing the still image. I then saved the movie.
I am running Lion, and I opened the movie in Quicktime Player (not Quicktime Pro) and it also played just fine. The photo looked right and it played the audio as well. So, I decided to then "Share" the movie to YouTube from within Quicktime Player. It didn't work -- I got an error saying "Operation Stopped The operation is not supported for this media." I got the same error when I trying to export the movie within Quicktime Player. Also, IMovie would not successfully import it.
I tried using Handbrake as well to export it into a different format, and that gave me an error too.
So, I'm not sure what is going wrong. Again, the movie plays just fine in Quicktime Pro and Quicktime Player -- the still image displays properly throughout the entire audio -- but I can't seem to export it or share it.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks.
Mirsky

Any advice is appreciated.
The description of your work flow is different from that which I would use. However, be that as it may, the key problem appears to be the default 15 fps frame rate automatically used to merge the photo and audio data. If you export the merged data directly from QT 7 Pro to any option which allows you to change the frame rate, the file which is then produced does not trigger the export stoppage in other applications. I successfully tested exports at 24 and 30 fps in both the QT X and HandBrake apps without problem.

Unable to edit movies with Quicktime Pro 7

I recently upgraded to Quicktime Pro from Quicktime 7 although I am not able to edit movies. After moving the markers to the correct postion, all of the editing commands remain greyed out (i.e. cut/copy/delete/trim to selection). I've verified that the upgrade took place properly, reinstalled, and still nothing. Any ideas?

QT does not support editing mpeg-1 or mpeg-2 video. QT Mpeg Limitations
Open the movie and check MovieInfo to see if that is the format of the clips you are attempting to edit. If it is, you can use this freeware to do some editing and also can export both sound and video to other formats with it. Mpeg StreamClip
Even if the video is not mpeg it may have been flagged by the creator to not allow editing. If you try to save such flagged videos you usually get an error message that the video cannot be saved.

Can I make an mp3 using Quicktime Pro?

can I make an mp3 using Quicktime Pro?

QuickTime can play .mp3 files and can edit audio formats but it can't export to .mp3.
Use iTunes for that.

Link to redownload QuickTime Pro

Where can I go to redownload QuickTime Pro?
(QuickTime site download requires payment)
I've lost my ap but still have access code, registration key etc.

Go to this page, and install the free QuickTime download. If you are asked for your registration code or end up not having the Pro features, reenter the code.

I have quicktime pro and it does NOT have the screen record mode that Quicktime is suppose to have. Can I uninstall it and go back to an older version that would have screen recording? If so, how? Step by step needed. Thank you for your time.

Did you remove Quicktime X?
On a normal install Quicktime 7 is installed in the Utilities folder and Quicktime Pro in the main Applications folder.
You will need to reinstall OS X to get Quicktime X back if you have deleted it.
I notice yor profile says 10.5.8. Quicktime X is only available on 10.6 and above.

Unable to use 'copy' feature with registered version of quicktime pro.

Hi.
I have a registered version of Quicktime pro (7.1.6), and i am unable to use the copy feature. I captured several videos from work using a windows box and an application whose name escapes me at the moment. Due to the windows app being garbage, i was only able to capture in MPEG1 format (MPEG2 caused the app to crash, of course). I have brought the files home and am now unable to copy selections of it for exporting into smaller files. I can highlight lengths of the video (no audio, just video) but the 'copy' feature is grayed out still. Any ideas on what is causing this? The video format is as follows:
MPEG1 Muxed, 640 x 480
FPS: 29.97
Data rate: 4066.42 kbits/sec
I'm running 10.3.9, but have also had no success on a 10.4 macmini, so the OS doesn't seem to be the issue.
I'm trying to get this video into imovie, but since it's over 600 megs, imovie cops out after a few hours and says it can't import it.
Help?

Not all multiplexed videos come with AC3. They don't have to have audio in the first place. Some of them come with Linear PCM, which is the case for iDVD's VOB files, and MP2. If a multiplexed video is equipped with AC3, you are right, and the resulting modified sub-clip won't contain audio. But if it's Linear PCM or MP2, the edited sub-clip will contain audio.
I'm finished with this case.

Quicktime Pro export does not work

I am trying to export a streaming movie to a MP4 or other to play it on my Ipod touch. The particular movie is located on http://multimedia.slowfood.it/index.php?method=multimedia&action=zoom&id=37
I have experienced this with other movies too:
When saving it from my browser it saves 1 1KB link, which I can play in Quicktime pro.
However exporting it to MP4 results in a 4 MB file, which when played only shows the quicktime logo. Exporting it to one of the other formats does the same. I am new to this. Any ideas?

It's a streaming video. You can't save a streaming video. Streaming videos stay on the sever and aren't cached on your computer. Most videos that you see on the internet are progressive video's. A progressive video can be save to your computer.

I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am

I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am? I need them and don't want naturally to buy them again!!!
Thank you

Assuming you purchased QT Pro, you can always download it again at no extra charge by logging in to your Apple account.
Regarding FCE, there is no way to download & install the product. You need an original FCE install disk and your FCE serial number.
Final Cut Pro X (aka FCPX) can be purchased & downloaded from the App Store.
