QuickTime 7 Pro for Mac OS X

Don't make my mistake :(

Written by BR from Nacogdoches

Quicktime is great for conversion of file formats. I've been using it to convert video files from my dark, dark days in the Windows wilderness.

Quicktime the product gets 5 stars.

However, I screwed up when I bought the product. Yes, MY error. I inadvertently purchased the Windows version. Wasn't paying attention, can't return it, lost $30.

I took away a star because Apple has created different types of keys for the different Windows and OSX versions of Quicktime. I do not understand why this is necessary. I know it's my error that cost $30, but I don't see why it has to be this way.

The moral is... LOOK BEFORE YOU BUY, don't be like me, lol.

Good, but a bit pricy.

Written by CC from Broken Arrow

I bought this mainly for the ability to save embedded videos from a site, which it does just fine. I think the free version should at least do this. There are a lot of advanced features that most people probably will never use, I know I don't. So, I think a $10 price point would be more appropriate. As far as the functionality goes it is extremely good. Easy to use & plays videos very well.

Worked As Promised

I installed this upgrade quickly and it immediately unlocked advanced features allowing me to save web movies to my desktop that I otherwise could not easily save and edit.

Great but pay?

I've always been a fan of the QuickTime player, Even in my Windows days, I know it's a great payer, but to pay for the extra features? Not really to sure I'd do that.

It's Pretty Good

Written by MP from Newburgh

I bought Quicktime and thought it would be another hard to use video viewer and editor. It worked really well in Leopard and Tiger before I upgraded. My only compliant was that whenever I wanted to convert video to a cell phone, I always head to get validation from my company that makes the phone. It isn't Apple's problem, but next time could you please integrate a validation program?

Definitely useful, but maybe not $30 worth of useful

Written by TL from Owensboro

This upgrade is worth paying for, but I feel it's only worth about half of what they are charging for it. I finally upgraded because I wanted to save playblasts from Maya and this was the easiest way I could find to do so. I also do a bit of light video editing occasionally and basically to record or save anything you have to have Pro. I will definitely use the Pro features, but it feels like at least some of the recording or saving functions should be free.

This registration key works fine.

Written by AN from Scottsdale

Jan 12, 2008

I'm not sure most people understand what this is. Its NOT software. Its only a registration key, nothing more. What does it do? Lets you save Quicktime movies to a file from a web page. It also activates a few other odds-and-ends, but nothing to write home about. Is it overpriced, sure, but it does activate these added features. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Bad Serial Numbers

Written by WH from Alexandria

Dec 4, 2007

Some people are writing in saying that after purchasing QuickTime Pro and entering the serial number it doesn't work. It happened to me as well. Call Apple, get a refund, and purchase another serial number. Apparently they don't all work. The product is great though.

Stable and worthwile

Written by LM from Juneau

Although not perfect, Quicktime Pro is an astounding program when coupled with some additional (usually free) video codex from DivX and others. QT Pro, although a little slower than some of the comparable products, converts AVIs and other video to iPod format with slightly higher quality results.

Still looking forward to a little more conversion speed in the future.

QPro Works...

Written by AS from Houston

Oct 13, 2007

I have been using macs for over 20 years and am a graphic designer/video editor. There's nothing like QT out there and for the price the upgrade is the best. I've had a few sites that give me question marked videos (am working to change some preferences) but to be honest, I can't complain. It's the best bang for your buck.

QuickTime 7 Pro for Mac OS X

I would have given it 5 stars except that..

Written by SS from Bozeman

Jul 28, 2007

It is very annoying to pay 30 dollars again for the pro version when it seems like I paid 30 for the pro version of Quicktime 6 a few months ago.

To all users who say it does not work.
"I tried to convert video but there was no sound" etc..

This is a very novice complaint because it the program does work and im 99% sure he only copied the video over and not the audio track which is very easy to do both at the same time. I have never had a problem. As I said it should be 5 stars but it seems like I just paid for this not long ago.

Rip off for new mac owner

Written by LM from Carbondale

Feb 17, 2007

I have the professional on my PC and I enjoy many of the pro-only features. I recently purchased a new MacBook and was shocked when I found out this 30$ piece of proprietary Apple software was NOT included with my new $1,299 Mac. I love my new MacBook and all that comes with it, but come on Apple, throw me a bone here!

I needed a program to convert my AVI files into MOV files for websites, iPods and Cell phones, and Quicktime was the perfect solution. As a PC user, I was very happy with the results. Thanks Apple!

Worth it

Written by JG from Pleasanton

Sep 2, 2006

It's worth the upgrade to purchase the full version. With QuickTime as my main video player, it is extremely useful to have the ability to play a movie in full-screen. I am slightly disappointed in Mac for not including this in the regular version, as full-screen playback is an important part of any video player, but was not let down by the quality upon completing the installation.

A Short Summary of QuickTime 7 Pro

Written by AS from Sunnyvale

Jun 7, 2006

In all, this is an excellent product which reflects Apple's personality. The reason for it's low raiting are because of complainers on these comments that say their QuickTime 6 Pro was wiped out with QT7.

Hello guys? What did you UPDATE for? Logic, folks: when you are installing QT7, it uses LOGIC to think: huumm, this user want's to UPGRADE. How in land sakes will the computer know you want to install it WITHOUT removing QT6 Pro.

However, I still agree at the lack of functionality with different video and audio formats, especially with the DVD format. Additionally, the price is just a little bit too high. Therefore, it gets four stars.

Great product, slight registration problem

Written by KS from Ponte Vedra Beach

May 25, 2006

One of the problems I had and I'm sure a bunch of others are having as well is that Quicktime won't accept your code. In my case this was because I put a different name than who it was billed to, and it took it as "invalid". Make sure you register your Quicktime Pro to the same name as it was billed to––As well as the code, of course––, and it should work fine.

It's a great product, and I finally upgraded. I had Pro with Quicktime 6 and then didn't get QTPro for a while, but now I finally did, and it works fine =]

I too, have tried many times to make work. Today, at last, I was Successful. I had to play within the Utilities folders and the Preferences. I believe the "fix" was the association of the Preference with the program. Hope this works. (It's taken me a while.)
