Quicktime pro doesn't start installing

Hi,
I don't know what to do...
I got the key for Quicktime pro yesterday, put it in "registration" at Quicktime and am still waiting for something to happen.
Isn't it supposed to start installing by itself or do I need to activate something else? When I click on "about Quicktime" the logo says "Quicktime Pro" but the name underneith "Quicktime 7.1.3"
Sorry, this might be too easy a question, but I am really new to this and helplessly lost...
Thanks a lot for your help!
Frank

Final Cut Pro doesn't start

Hi!
Got a problem with Final Cut Pro.
When I start it, the first window with the logo, version info and loading info appears. But it disappears after a few seconds, and Final Cut Pro doesn't start at all.
what's the problem and how can I solve it?

anybody with even an ounce of self reliance could tell you this, its the single most often raised issue on this and every other FCP forum and resource.
... whew, writing that was probably more long winded than just telling you the answer so clearly I'm the muggins here!
sounds like your FCP prefernces have corupted (who knows exactly why and how it happens, but it happens all too often)
download and install FCP Rescue form http://fcprescue.andersholck.com/ its a synch to use.
you can use it to trash your corupted prefs, and then FCP will make new good ones when you next launch it.
you can also use it to back up a good set, once you've reset all you particualr preferences in the User Settings...
and you can then use it again to restore those good prefs if and when it all happens next time

My MacBook Pro doesn't start; in safe mode shift CMD V the message "disk0s2: media is not present" is written on the screen repeatedly but the MacBook doesn't start. Do you have any ideas of why this should be or what I should do to resolve this?

My MacBook Pro doesn't start; in safe mode <shift CMD V> the message "disk0s2: media is not present" is written on the screen repeatedly but the MacBook doesn't start. Do you have any ideas of why this should be or what I should do to resolve this? Thanks Eamonn

Thanks for these suggestions: I have tried safe mode re-starts (both "verbose" and simple "shift" + power) to no avail. I get the error message "disk0s2: media is not present". Following this I inserted the installation disc and from there ran disc utility. The "Verify Disk" indicated an error " invalid sibling link" which it could not repair.
I also tried to completely re-format/erase the disk, but again got an error message "disk object invalid or unable to serialize".
Any ideas of what could be causing this or the best solution? I fear I am fast running out of options.

Any suggestion will be appreciated please.

I took it to a regular computer repair center and they said its an issue with the 1*8 gb and 1*2 gb totally 10 gbs i put in and then i replaced the 8gb with the old 2 gb that came with the computer and the issue is the same.
I tried reseting it to factory form that took 3days to download os 8 . and finally stopped by itself.
I don,t know if i had to take it to apple store?

10.5.4 installed, Macbook Pro doesn't start up

Hi,
I just installed 10.5.4 via Software Update. But now my Macbook Pro doesn't startup correctly anymore. I hear the start up sound then the white screen with apple and the spinning wheel. Then then fans start to grow louder and louder until the whole unit just shuts down and is off.
Has anyone already experienced this problem? Please help.
Thanks.
Best Rob

The combo update is only available from the Apple download site. The link is in one of the other 10.5.4 threads. Software update only uses a delta update.
Try booting in the safe mode, hold down the Shift key while booting. If you get to the login screen, don't login but hit the restart button. That should allow a normal boot - it forces a disk repair.
Otherwise, boot into the Leopard DVD, select the Utilities menu and run the disk utility from there and repair HD and permission. If that succeeds, you should be able to boot normally.
The update may have actually succeeded but the cleanup failed.
If you manage to get back into your system, check the version of your OS. It may be 10.5.4
If all else fails, you will need to restore your previous system using TimeMachine, although usually one of the above techniques will usually result in a bootable system without needing major surgery.

My Mac book pro doesn't start!!!

hallo! i have a problem, my Mac book pro 13' that I bought in June 2010 doesn't start. it appears a grey screen with some information like a terminal and then the message to push the button until it switch off and then retry. it's like so from yesterday and I tried to start it with cmd+v cmd+s but without solution. I'm not at home and so I haven't the install disk and I don't remember version of operative system. Please help meeee!!!
thank you Laura

Does the message look similar to what is explanied in this article?
Kernel Panic - Apple Support
I would also suggest to try starting your computer in Safe Mode which is done by holding the shift key right after you hear the MacBook's start up chime. If the computer is able to start up successfully in Safe Mode then the culprit could be something related to software.
Hope this helps.

Quicktime 10 player stutters and skips but quicktime pro doesn't

I have a early 2011 17inch i7 mac book pro and just recently when I play 60fps footage from my 7D camera in quicktime 10, the clips stutter and skips, it does this intermittently and in different parts of the same clip. I can play the clip and it would stutter at one point and then when i play it back again it would play fine at that same part and then stutter at another part. But when i open the same footage in quicktime 7 (quicktime pro) it play with no issues every single time.
So I then tried the same footage on my 8 core MacPro, and played the clips in quicktime 10, all the footage plays with no problems everytime.
Is this a hard drive issue, a grafics card issue? I was at the apple store and seen a genuis and we tried to troubleshoot it but cold not figure out the issue. The apple rep said to replace the hardrive, but i want to make sure before I do. Does anyone have any suggestions.

Thanks for the response.
I didn't realize those settings weren't controlling the same function, but I see that now... Fact is, I don't use QT all that much, and don't need much functionality from it, just to watch a few screen capture videos I create using Snapz Pro X.
Problem is, I can't control rewind/fast-forward if I can't see the controls, and QT doesn't default to showing the full display. Unfortunately, it seems the pref setting functionality I want apparently doesn't work for MY needs, so I'm stuck with having to manually select the 'fit to screen' setting EVERY TIME I open a new .mov video in QT. I see there's a keyboard short-cut to "fit to screen" (Apple Key/3), but the only thing better than needing to use a key combo EVERY time I open a movie is not needing to use one at all! Very Un-Maclike...
Wondering why QT Pro can't default to opening to the USER'S preference (whether fit to screen or full screen), so as not to have to change it EVERY TIME? This is a PRO app? How long has QT been released, a decade or two? Shouldn't it a mature app, at this point, with little nit-noids like this worked out?

Soundtrack pro doesn't start

Since a claen install of OSX 10.7.1 and FCP Studio, Soundtrack Pro no longer starts. The start window flashes up for a moment, then it dissappears and nothing happens. All software updates are installed, work around from apple support (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3659?viewlocale=en_US) didn't work either.
Can anyone help?

Hi,
So following the instructions you've tried removing the prefs and then reinstalling the software? If you have then there is something else conflicting your STP.
To resolve this you will need to do the following:
Open Console
With the Log list shown on the Left, select ALL MESSAGES
Cmd-K to clear the display
If you are getting messages at this point there is another, possible unrelated issue with your system.
Startup SoundtrackPro
Go back to Console and select all messages in the message area. Then Cmd-C to put into pasteboard.
Paste it back here and send for me to look at. Anything other than:
29/08/2011 11:44:56.558 MIDIServer: MIDIServer [34627] starting; arch=x86_64
is a likely problem. You might even be able to diagnose it yourself from this.
All the best

MacBook Pro doesn't start - harddisk is not working

I am desperate. My girlfriends MacBook Pro unibody, with OS Leopard doesn't start any more. It shows the grey screen with the apple, but that's it. I tried resetting the NVRAM - it didn't help. I tried starting in Safe Boot mode - it didn't start. I have booted from the installation DVD and run Disk Utility, but it doesn't even see the partition and all the buttons to Repair or Verify the disk are grayed out. And the System Profiler doesn't see the disk, but instead just gets stuck while trying to read it.
After all this I did a deep Hardware test, but it didn't find any problems.
I suppose then that the partition, but not the harddisk is corrupt... any ideas?
And one more question: is there a way to save the data from the harddisk before trying to erase and reinstall the system, or taking it to the service?

Try putting it into Target mode...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
To try to read it's drive, or put another Mac with Firewire & a comparable OSv in T mode, hold the Option key down when booting the MBP to see if it'll boot off the the other Macs drive.
Long shot, but...
Either boot this one in Target mode...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
And recovering from another Mac, or booting this Mac from another HDD, then using Data Rescue...
http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue.php
(Has a Free Demo to see if it could or not, but you'll need another drive to recover to).

Macbook pro doesn't start up anymore

Guys i got a pretty big problem. My 1st gen macbook pro doesn't wanna completely start up anymore. When i press the startup button, I get the bong and when the apple logo appears, it suddenly restarts. So the bong appears, the apple logo shows up and then it restarts again: this keeps on going and i cant stop it unless i pull out the battery and power plug. I have no idea how this is possible: I did nothing unusual with my computer. The only alarming thing that happened before this was a kernel panic. After restarting my computer everything was fine and the mbp seemed to have recovered. So I then left it as I went for dinner and when i came back, the screen was black en frozen. So I turned of the mbp and then it wouldnt start up anymore!!!
Can anyone please help me!!!

Place the OSX installation DVD that came with your computer and hold down 'C' during the restart. That should open up the installation/repair screen. There you can check your volume and repair it through Disk Utility. If you can't fix your drive here, you can restart your machine in target mode and backup your drive (given that you have another computer to back it up to) and then hard-format and reinstall. This might be a long and hard process but it should solve your problems. If you have more questions, just post.

Macbook pro doesn't start after a long time of inactivity

hi,
MAC OS doesn't start when I switch on my macbook after a long time of inactivity. The HD seems to turn, the non activity led is on but nothing on screen.
I have to switch off the machine by pressing the start button during five seconds and then switch on again to launch MAC OS without problem.
the problem doesn't appear if the macbook has been switched off for a short time and only appears after a long time of inactivity
I dont'know if their is a hardware problem? can somebody help me?
macbook pro Mac OS X (10.4.6)

hello,
I have a the problem when the MBP is in sleep mode too for one hour for example. It doesn't wake up and the behaviour is the same as a power on.(power ok, hd turns , blank screen, activity led on, no launch of MAC OS)
I call apple support . They told me to look at the ram stick in order to find if the ram is in good place.
No differences , the problem is still present after disconnection an reconnection of RAM.
did someone find a fix at this issue?
thank you.

Why my quicktime pro doesn't open .rtf files?

Hi!
I am trying to create subtitles to video files using quicktime pro 7; I have a macbook pro with mac os x 10.6.8. Every tutorial I find says to open text file in quicktime, however my quicktime player pro doesn't do that. It says "file is not a movie file" and doesn't play it at all. How do I solve it, please?
Cheers,
Tomasz

QuickTime Player Pro can only import "plain text" (.txt) files.

Cheers!

Open QuickTime Player and look under the Edit menu.
