Will QuickTime 7 Pro work with OS X Lion?

I have Leopard now, but I have ordered Snow Leopard  because I want to switch to OS X Lion when it comes out - apparently it's not clear whether one actually needs Snow Leopard first, but I'm not taking any chances. I also ordered iWorks11 and iLife 11 because I only have 08 and I understand that those won't work on Lion. Now, does anyone know if my QuickTime 7 Pro will work on Lion?

Good news - it WILL work for Lion - I stand corrected.  For some reason the Lion install deleted the program from my computer (the icon changed to a question mark on my dock but the program was no longer in my applications folder).  I called Apple today - they directed me to download QuickTime 7.6 or 7.7 - I don't recall which - and it works.  Your computer should remember your activation key and automatically add the pro features (mine did).  If not you may need to re-type your activation code (hopefully you still have it but I didn't need it).
Important - search for QuickTime 7 download.  When first looking I searched for QuickTime 7 Pro and found a page on Apple's site to download it but the dmg says "Leopdard" on it and it will not work on Lion.
Call Apple if you are still having trouble - it works, I promise!

    You could try Handbrake, it works quite well.

  • Will Quicktime Pro convert movies in other formats for use with IPad Air 2

    ITunes 12 will let me import movies with no problem. However I cannot export these movies out to my IPhone 6 or IPad Air 2. Will Quicktime Pro allow me to convert these movies so they can be exported? I don't want to spend the $30 for it if the software will not do it.
    Or if anyone else knows of another solution, I'm open to other options. I use to have an Samsung Galaxy 2 tablet and I just switched over to an IPad Air 2. Been using an IPhone for years.
    Thanks!

    Nearly all "all-in-one" or multifunction devices will work with a Mac, but I recommend purchasing one from a company that visibly supports OS X. Brother, Canon, and Epson are all good choices. At present, no other common printer manufacturers are worth considering.
    Wireless all-in-one devices are convenient and cost about the same as USB-only ones. Consider AirPrint compatibility for future needs.
    Recently I have grown to favor Brother printers over the others. I recommend AirPrint compatible Brother printers and multifunction devices over those of other manufacturers. They are inexpensive, their OS X integration is well-implemented, their consumables are reasonably priced, and their technical support is free forever. If you need to call them and explain that you have a Mac, you will immediately receive competent assistance.
    I have grown to dislike HP printers, for all the above reasons.
    Read user reviews from vendor websites - Amazon is a good place to start, since Amazon lets people write almost anything they want... right, wrong, or completely idiotic.
    Read the reviews on the respective manufacturers' websites as well, but consider the likelihood of them deleting negative reviews.
    Process all those user reviews employing your own common sense, and draw your own conclusions.

  • Will iPhoto '09 work with Lion?

    Will iPhoto '09 work with Lion? Since I upgraded to Lion when I open a Facebook album in iPhoto I get the message "An error occurred with the publication of (album name)". The album was submitted successfully long ago. One of a few new quirks since the upgrade.

    Crap. I think I might be out of luck. I'm trying to put it on a 2011 Mac Mini. And the new iPhoto is such crap by comparison.
    I wonder if they dumbed it down so people would buy Aperture.

  • Will QuickTime Pro Edit mp4?

    I own the Madonna: The Immaculate Collection on DVD. I have converted the VOB file to mp4, but it is 62 minutes long. Every video is included in the one file. I want to break the videos down individually for my iPod. I don't mind spending the $30 to upgrade my QuickTime to pro it it will allow me to do this. If not, does anybosy know another program ($50 or less) that will? I've also read some user reviews on QuickTime. Are there a lot of bugs/issues with Windows XP? Thanks.

    Will QuickTime Pro Edit mp4?
    Yes, but it may not be the best solution in all work flows. Converting and then clipping into segments is a viable solution that will save the final product as an .mov file even though the movie is still in its original format. Reversing the work flow, however, and clipping the file into segments first is not very accurate owing to the way in which the sequential blocks of audio and video data are stored in the file.

    A cheaper and perhaps better solution would be to dowload the free Windows version of MPEG Streamclip and use it. Since it employs an MPEG based player/editor window, you can accurately set in and out points for the decrypted VOB and convert the segments directly to individual iPod compatible files. In addition, filters are available to change brightness, contrast, saturation, and/or volume, as well as, custom cropping with improved scaling as part of the conversion process. In some ways, it is also easier to use than QT Pro.
    I've also read some user reviews on QuickTime. Are there a lot of bugs/issues with Windows XP?
    If you really don't want to use Apple's QT tools, MPEG Streamclip for windows will also use the QT Alternate software instead. I personally don't find QT to be "buggy" to any real degree. Most of my problem have been traced to use of the QT H.264 codec at low video data rates. The "predictor-corrector" routines appear to be written for use at higher data rates (my guess would be in the 2.0 mbps to 5.0 mbps range) and so tend to be slow to "clamp" video data rate excursions in excess of user settings below 1.0-1.5 mbps with certain vintage video content. As I use the Mac version, I'm stuck with QT 7 and simply make adjustments as needed for a 100% conversion success rate for the nearly 400 videos currently on my iPod.

  • Will Quicktime Pro convert/compress .dv files to Quicktime?

    I have .dv movies that are taking up so much space on my hard-drive. I purchased Quicktime Pro to compress those files so they will take up less space. I don't see in the tutorial how to do this. Could someone please point me in the right direction so I can see how to do this? Thanks!

    Will Quicktime Pro convert/compress .dv files to Quicktime?
    Of course.
    I don't see in the tutorial how to do this. Could someone please point me in the right direction so I can see how to do this?
    This is impossible to do until you define what you mean by "QuickTime."
    Basically, a "QuickTime" (MOV) file is any form of dat that can be placed in an MOV file container -- not a compression format in and of itself. Therefore, your first step is to determine what you really want to do here. For instance, a DV (.dv) stream file normally consists of an audio DV compressed track along with a video DV compressed track. DV(25) files normally contain audio and video tracks having a data rate on the order of 28.5 Mbps each (or about a 57 Mbps total average data rate). As you indicated, these do make for rather large files. You could, of course, reduce the total data rate by nearly half if you merge the original video track with AIFF (linear PCM) converted audio (or even smaller if you use an AAC audio track). The catch here is that QT Pro does not have a DV "pass thorough" video option which allows you to simply convert the audio while retaining the original DV video. So unless you are willing to manually convert the audio track and then manually replace the original Audio track with your converted audio, you would normally have to convert both audio and video to another compression format.
    In this latter case, you could select any valid codec supported by QT as augmented by installed components. Typical possibilities would be AIC/AIFF, unlimited H.264/AAC, Motion-JPEG/AIFF Photo-JPEG/AIFF, supported MPEG4/AAC or H.264/AAC profiles with limited data rates. These compression options are all compatible with iMovie '08 editing and represent a full range of possible data rates (which in turn determine your final file size). For instance, an AIC/AIFF file would normally end up with a total data rate on the order of 20-22 Mbps with an unlimited H.264/AAC about 16-18 Mbps, M-JPEG 10 Mbps, Photo-JPEG 8-9 Mbps, and MPEG4/AAC or H.264 as low as you can stand the loss in quality and still retain a video track.
    These various compression formats basically represent a compromise between file size and quality with the quoted data rates being typical for SD content with an "average" quality setting. While actual data rates are always dependent on the actual file converted, the stated averages should provide some idea as to what you could expect in comparison to your original source file -- i.e., the AIC/AIFF file would be expected to be about 62-65% the size of your DV file, unlimited H.264/AAC 28-31%, M-JPEG/AIFF 17-18%, Photo-JPEG 14-15%, and MPEG4/AAC or H.264/AAC in the 3-5% range with "reasonable" quality levels.
    Since each codec has somewhat different characteristics and user options, I will not go into specifics for each here. What I would recommend at this point is for you to select a short file with typical content and convert it wising the various codecs and determine what compromise in file size and quality you can live with at the display size you plan to use. This in turn will likely depend to some extent on what you plan to do with the final file. For the archiving of files for later use/editin, you like want files to retain as much quality as possible which, in turn, usually implies large file sizes. On the other hand, distribution files can be much more highly compressed as a "finished" product which you don't intend to re-compress or edit further. Remember, when you compress a file more compact format you are literally "throwing away" data so you should be most judicious in selecting that appropriate format to which to compress your files for the saving of file space.

  • Mocha Pro Work With AE

    Can "Mocha Pro" work with After Effect???  I know Mocha AE can work with After Effect...but can Mocha Pro???
    Can anyone tell me please.....

    Sure - mocha Pro will work with any version of AE, all the way back to CS3.
    You can either launch mocha Pro as a stand alone app or you can set mocha Pro to launch from AE>Animation menu>Track in mocha. To do this change your user preference in mocha Pro.
    mocha Pro can export to AE: 2D Planar Tracking, 3D Camera Tracking, Roto masks and Lens distortion.

  • Many of my System Preferences will no longer work after installing Mountain Lion. Software update, startup disk, iCloud, etc. no longer will launch. I keep getting a drop down window saying I must restart system preferences in order to use. No go!

    Many of my System Preferences will no longer work after installing Mountain Lion. Software Update, Startup Disk, iCloud, Time Machine, Notifications, etc. no longer will launch even though they do show their icons in the system preferences window. I keep getting a drop down window saying I must restart system preferences in order to use with a "Cancel" or "OK" choice. After I click on "OK" the window just keeps reappearing with the same choices and the pane I wish to use still remains inoperative. Third party preference panes DO work.
    Reinstalling OSX Mountain Lion did not help. Neither did throwing away preferences.plist.

    Hi Jeff,
    Tried to reply with my iPhone but not easy! Anyway, back on the laptop now. Yes the crash was bad but Tek support at Prism Sound was really good. In the end I rebuilt the whole system on a new disk which took a couple of days with all the plugins, softsynths etc.... but there seemed to be no alternative in my case, and this was agreed with Prism sound as being the only alternative left to me. I still don't really know what caused the crash but ML and Orpheus are both working fine now. Let's face it, you'll have to update at sometime..maybe best to pick some time between projects On balance, I suspect that my problems were unique to my system and that your installation will go ok.
    Hope it goes well,
