Quicktime pro won't install

Upon downloading and installing, my 10.5.8 system restarts, then there is no evidence of Quicktime Pro on my machine.
Multiple tries, same result.
Downloading again doesn't help.
Why won't this puppy install?

There is no such thing as a QuickTime pro download.
QuickTime Player is already installed on your machine. You enable to Pro features by entering the registation info you got in the email confirmation.

Bought Quicktime Pro - won't install !?!?

Greetings,
I just purchased the Quicktime Pro upgrade. I already have this for my computer, but I am renting a Mac Laptop (Powerbook G4, 500MHz), OSx 10.4.9, Quicktime 7.1.6 for a presentation. My movie wouldn't play in their QT, so I figured it was something to do with not having Quicktime Pro. (The movie is in DVCPROHD720p compression). So, I figured I would just purchase the upgrade for the rented computer, I put in the key in the QT system preferences etc, but the movie still will not give me access to Pro features, and the movie will still not play. Any ideas ?!?
Thanks, David Berry

Open up QT player>About QT player. Does it show the gray PRO sign on the blue Q?
Does the movie play on your other computer that is not rented?

HT3678 Quicktime Pro won't install

I did exactly everything on the page. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3678
I have Mountain Lion. Installed Quicktime 7. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL923?locale=en_US&viewlocale=en_US
Bought Pro. Put in registration code, Quicktime Logo Pro showed up in box.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3678
BUT all Pro capabilities still ghosted out and no Pro functionality or Logo anywhere else but that one box. Any help?

Try quitting and relaunching the app. If that doesn't help, try rebooting your Mac.

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.

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?

QuickTime Pro won't load to Snow Leopard

I own QuickTime Pro. By virtue of owning Final Cut Studio.
But it doesn't work right on my newly Snow Leopard-ized 8 core tower.
I download QT 7 from the QTP page, but it won't install because:
"QuickTime can't be installed on this disk. This version of
QuickTime 7 can't be installed on this disk because
QuickTime X is already present. Please use Software
Update to install the appropriate version of QuickTime
for your Mac."
%$#@!!
The "QuickTime Player 7" menu item isn't the same as on other Macs. It doesn't show a "QuickTime Preferences" item, only a "Preferences" item, so many things can't be done with it.
Registration shows three blank lines but "Apple Pro Apps User" in small type at the bottom.
Even though it announces itself as QuickTime Player 7, it does most things that QuickTime Pro has always done, but I can't even update it with a fresh install, it seems.
I don't care at all for QuickTime X, but it seems intent on blocking my way.
How to get around it?

That version fails to show the "QuickTime Preferences" item in the drop down menu that includes "Preferences," which was my reason behind trying to update it.
Yes, it was replaced by the single registration option which no longer accesses the system preferences window.
Its QTPro features seem to work, but I can't, for instance, select Kiosk mode through any of the current menu items... Am I stuck until Apple brings out a non-interim version? They've had a year...
Haven't tried using it lately, but the "Kiosk" option is still available as a QTL file option if you can use a QTL file for whatever you want to do.

MB Pro won't install os x mavericks after re-formatting

Hi guys,
Basically, my macbook pro dec 2011 won't install mavericks os after I have formatted my mb.
What happens: with DU I checked the HD and no issues found, I formatted the macbook by using DU and erasing the HD (took about 4 hours - 3 times erase/overwrite procedure which was the second most safe way of erasing under options)..
I move on to install mavericks OS which at first asks me to login to my apple id, after which it says it will take 3 hours.. after an hour or so it starts saying 150 hours or whatever ridiculous number and it goes down and afterwards my mb just restarts itself..
Is my internal hard drive messed up physically or ??
Thanks
Max

Be sure to follow these directions carefully:
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.
Now, you can upgrade if you need to.

Quicktime Pro does not install with Final Cut Studio

I have an iMac with software version 10.5.7. I installed Final Cut Studio 2 (Final Cut version 6.05). With other similar installations on an iMac, Quicktime Pro came as a normal part of the software. On this iMac, the Pro version of Quicktime did not get installed. Is there a way to `unlock` it? Thanks

Final Cut Studio install should "unlock" the QuickTime Player Pro features.
What makes you think you do not have it?

Mac book pro won't install or uninstall programs

I have a mac book pro, running OSX 10.7.5. When I try to instill Java, or any program for that matter, it takes me to the download screen, asks me for my password and then does nothing. Will not install. I tried to uninstall a program as well and the same thing happens. Won't install or uninstall. Any ideas?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Quicktime pro won't work on windows 7

Hi,
I've purchased/installed Quicktime Pro. There were no issues with installation or registration of the software. I'm unable to get Quicktime to play any of my saved movie files, .avi or .mov file. When I click on play the slider start to progress however, there is no video or audio.
I have installed the codec pack from the DivX site, this made no difference. When attempting to play a file there are no errors.
Any advice owuld be appreciated.
Thank-you in advance.
Cheers...Bruce

Hello,
Thanks for the post. On this one, I have a couple of ideas. I've pasted the links below. One is for the Win7/64 driver page and the print diagnostic utility. I would certainly recommend the utility to help narrow down the issue. The other is a queue related document which has some excellent information. Good Luck!

2011s MacBook Pro won't install Yosemite neither reboot or boot into recovery mode.

Hello everyone, I've searched all around the web and didn't find a solution.
Sorry about my english, btw, I'm from Brasil lol!
I have a 2011s MacBook Pro, used to run Snow Leopard until 2 days ago, when I downloaded Yosemite and restarted the computer to run the installation.
During the process, it stopped at 22%, and said: FILE SYSTEM VERIFY OR REPAIR FAILED.
I tried to reboot on Macintosh HD as usual, but it's not possible, I can't unmount the HD to repair it, can't erase it and I'm a little desperate.
I have a good backup of important files on an external drive, so the best solution for me would be to format the HD again, with the Yosemite image which appears to be running at startup.
Command+ anything at startup doesn't work, probably because the Yosemite install is trying to run...
Any suggestions???
Thank you!

Hey Vince,
I have the same or similar issue. Please forgive my English, as I attended American Public schools
So last night, my MacBook Pro told me hey you want to download this free and amazing new OS called Yosemite?
(I'm adding to your post to hopefully grab more attention and then maybe grab a solution from someone out there..)
I thought yea, no, maybe, okay it's free, they say it is amazing-- why not?!?
So I downloaded and clicked okay to restart and install the new OS.......but it won't install the OS and I get stuck here on this screen.
I have tried restarting about 10 ties. I have tried quitting the install but it won't allow me to boot from Mac HD or my time capsule HD. I tried going into the menu options above but it won't let me repair or reboot or anything to get my MacBook to work again.
It is pretty frustrating. I went from having a working MacBook Pro to having a nightlight.
Vince- if you get a solution or a fix, Please let me know.
Thanks
john

QuickTime Pro won't play video clip

I downloaded a video that plays fine in windows media player, but will not play in QuickTime Pro 7.1.3. It only plays a black screen with no sound.

Nick Holmes wrote:
The Apple Pro Res codec is installed along with Final Cut Studio 2.
The FCS 2 license allows you to:
"install on one desktop and one laptop Apple computer that you own. You may not use the software on both at the same time".
You don't even need to do that anymore. Apple recently released a standalone ProRes decoder for Mac and PC:

Just install this and you should be good to go.

Quicktime Pro won't recognize my video camera.

The video camera is attached to the computer via Firewire. I checked and the computer recognizes that the camera is attached by Firewire.
I'm trying to transfer already-shot video from the video camera into Quictime Pro, but when I turn on the camera and play the video and click the NEW MOVIE RECORDING link in Quictime - I get a message "NO RECORDING DEVICE FOUND".
Does anyone know what I have to do to get Quicktime Pro to recognize the video camera?
Thanks

When I import the video into iMovie, iMovie squashes the widescreen video into a rectangle with the dimensions of a TV screen, and there doesn't seem to be any way to turn it back into a distortion-free widescreen image.
I would upgrade iMovie (from 3.03), but Apple doesn't seem to sell the upgrade anymore (not that will work in OS X 10.3.9.)
I have Quicktime Pro and iMovie and I can't get the video out of my camcorder and into my computer.

QuickTime Pro won't let me save a file from a website

I have QuickTime Pro 7.0 Normally I can right click a link in Mail and select, "Download linked file" and it will allow me to save an MP3. Not this time. Other times, once actually on a website, I can click on the button on the web based version of QuickTime and save a local copy. However, I can't do that on this website:
http://survive2thrive.gsradio.net:8080/120309.mp3
Does anyone know why?
Thanks!

Copy the URL.
In Safari open the download window (Cmd-Opt-L)
Paste.
OR
Paste the URL in the Addressfield
Option-Return and the file will download.
Know thy Mac.
