Mavens of Malus Domestica: I have a CD that comes with the textbook that I use in a class that I teach that has MOV files that I need to play for the class. When I double-click on them on my Ubuntu machine, they play very well. When I put the CD into my G4 with 10.4.11, it mounts the CD, but does nothing with it. If I click on it, I get the contents of the folder. Double-clicking on the primary file opens Classic Mode, and then a window with the table of contents. I can view the overheads, but clicking on a video only puts a labeled blue box in the middle of the screen. The instructions on the screen tell me to "click the image and then click the 'play' button"; but when I do that, nothing happens. If I control-click or right-click the box, I get another dialog box; I click on "Play Quicktime", but the dialog box disappears and nothing happens.
Am I missing a file, or is this cockpit error? Any suggestions are welcome, and thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
