anyone know if i install QT 7 ( free download ) , would i lose all the add ons (from 6.5 pro that i paid for)

not sure where to look for that answer ...

thanks

What add-ons? Do you mean plug-ins? You may need to re-install some of them, if they have been updated for QT7.

If you were a Quicktime Pro owner, Apple will require you to re-upgrade to Pro under version 7.

When I upgraded my QT to QT 7.0.4 (free download) it completely wiped out all of my previous QT files. I realized this when I was having troubles with the new QT and was trying to get back to my old one. I don't know if yours would do the same though, because I didn't buy any of the plug-in things that you're talking about.

Anyways just as a side note, from my recent QT experience I had trouble with QT 7.0.4, but I reinstalled 7.0.1 and everything works perfectly fine so far. (so I don't know what was going on there, but I thought that might be helpful)...maybe

What add-on?.......i mean the Pro features ( mini video editing ...and saving QT file off the web )


and the re-upgrade.......that's going to cost me ( ok i'm cheap lol ) i just hate the world of of it's been 12 month since paid us some $$$ ....and here's your chance now.

the only reason i'm asking is because i'm noticed that some (QT mov) lately have been download to view and it's just a white screen and a message ....( go buy the upgrade ) or your missing a plug in

just thought i ask

thanks

QT is not PC friendly ....i remember back when i had Windows 98 and the freedown load of QT4 or something , killed my downloads of any file ....a QT logo would appear with a crack in it ...a uninstall fixed that problem ...

I have an imac G5

You must have had a bad download, or some other problem. I used QT4 to QT6 (Pro and non-Pro) on a PC with no problems whatsoever. If your experience was the norm then QT on the PC would have died years ago.
