Reviews for QuickTime 7 Pro for Windows

I was told that QT Pro was a great tool on the Win PC but... When I tried QTPro to open files from my DV Camcorder I got the message "is not a movie file!"
When I double click on the files they launch into Windows Media player.
I had to spend another $40 on "AVS Video Converter" in order to resave the file in a way QT Pro could even open.

Guess I do not understand Apples definition of "Pro"

I purchased the Pro version of Quicktime and now I wonder why I did. Nearly every website I visit that has videos refuses to accept Quicktime. Instead, I get a question mark displayed over the Quicktime logo. I am running the latest Pro version on an iMac G5 with the latest update. I have no trouble with Realplayer or MS Media Player. Save your money and future frustration. Take the free players.

Apple prides itself on having the best products, and software. Well maybe make this program only for apple users because it was horrible with my HP. Easy to use, but made everything look horrible and all around was just very dissapointing.

I have found this product extremely frustrating for its use in the PC plataform. It does not deliver what it promises. Maybe in the Mac is better. I have a iMac but I do not find QuickTime any better though.
It is unecessary to purchase such an expensive product to get so little for your money.

Quicktime is an easy and fantastic program. Remember its really only a small program, it's a small media player that has editing and exporting functions. I'm not sure why people are having such huge problems with it. I can't think of ever having problems with it. I love the full screen functions and the new controller that automatically hides and the accurate scrumming bar.

I think it could be PC people not understanding the differences between using the programs compared with Windows Media Player, which you can't really do much with.) We are know MAC and PC are just different so get used to it! If people are having problems with using reading WMV on a mac try Flip4mac, works like a gem.

I have Quicktime Pro and I've never had any problems with it, obviously it won't let you do illegal things. The only downside I can think of, is that you can't convert a .mov file to a MP3, (some older programs can't read MP4) but I do believe there's an good explanation for this.

I purchased this product because i have videos that need to be rotate,however once you rotate the video,
it plays soo Bad that certain images dissapear completly from the screen.
i had to shrunk the video size in order to be able to view the clip.
also it promised soo much, however once you need to use the other features,( B A M ) you need to buy additional software to use those features.
so my advice is save your money & next time when recording, do it the right position.
Sorry QuickTime Pro.

no one to contact,no support, pages are always unavailable,contact us buttons are useless, page unavailable Lets start off by informing you that I have been using Windows Media Player for years, and have many playlists both audio, and video. Then I bought 3ipods,2-30GBs,and 1-nano, so I downloaded iTunes, and with it comes QUICK TIME,this is where the problems start, Quick Time took over all media files I can't even access Media Player now everything I try to open come up in Quick Time player from itunes, well this free player just doesn't have the quality,or the features that Windows Media Player has, in fact Quick Time is by far an inferior player that just doesn't suit my needs, I can't even find a way to temporarily disable QT player, so I can use WMP for files I've had for years,so now its this big game of installing then uninstalling. It's like some tyrant dictator has taken away all my choices, and forcing me to use an inferior product. WHAT CAN BE DONE TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM ??? Do I have to buy QT Pro, I don't think so, am having nothing but grief with the one I already have, as for the ipods well if this problem can not be solved into the garbage they go.
Thank You

Although only £20 to "upgrade" its hardly worth it. The interface is poor, file conversion is very limited, especially cropping which does not offer any real options.
