Upgrading QuickTime
Friday, May 26, 2006 / Mac OS X
I downloaded an upgrade for QuickTime player from 7 to 7.0.3 and the player doesn’t play. Then I find out I need to purchase an upgrade from Apple so it will play.
Can you shed any light on this?
QuickTime Player is a free application. QuickTime Pro, however, costs $29.99 for a license. The free player can be found here. http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/mac.html Just uncheck the two checkboxes and click on the “Free Download NOW” button. If you had QuickTime Pro 5 or 6 before, then moving to QuickTime 7 will require you to upgrade at a price. Unless you need to create or reformat video content, then the free player should suite you just fine.
