[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1559132, member: 234411"] Hi [B]Eperon[/B] - welcome to the the forum! :) Not sure that I can help and would be curious myself on how to play MIDI files on a Mac - but the native Quick Time Player does not seem to support the audio format (see chart below from [URL="http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3775?viewlocale=en_US"]HERE[/URL]); also I just took a look @ Quick Time on my MBPro (OS 10.9.1) and there is no help information on Midi nor a selection to add some type of plugin. Now there are a number of MIDI players offered in the MAS (Mac App Store) and I'm sure a number doing an online search that may not be in the store. Hopefully others w/ more experience will 'chime in' w/ some suggestions - I've only used MIDI on an older PC for my wife's keyboard. Good luck - Dave :) [ATTACH=full]19938[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
