[QUOTE="powermacj7, post: 653751, member: 28821"] 1: is quicktime the only media player that comes with the native os? [FONT="Century Gothic"]Quicktime is what ships on the Mac. Flip4mac allows you to view Windows Media Player file through Quicktime. VLC is a widely used video player that plays just about everything. And of course RealPlayer is available for the Mac. [/FONT] 2: do I really have to buy the pro upgrade to get full functionality? [FONT="Century Gothic"]Yes, to get all the functions from Quicktime you need to purchase the Pro Media Key.[/FONT] 3: my Sony divi camcorder has been recognised and all the MPEG files have been automatically downloaded. However, I don't seem to have anything that will play them. What am I doing wrong? [FONT="Century Gothic"]I would think they would play in either Quicktime or imovie. I am not sure on this actually. [/FONT] 4: I would like to copy all of my music files from my defunct pc, where do I put the files so that iTunes will see them? I looked at importing through iTunes but it will only let me import individual sets of files and not multiple folders. [FONT="Century Gothic"][/FONT] How are you importing your songs from your PC? You can add them to your Music Folder on the Hard-Drive, and then point iTunes to locate them. [/QUOTE]
