Apple Updates Quicktime to 7.4.1

petvas · Feb 6, 2008, 04:10 PM

Downloading now...

It requires a restart so be warned!

John01021988 · Feb 6, 2008, 04:15 PM

Cool! It seems that 10.5.2 will be changing major things after all. Almost all apple's software have been updated throughout this and last week.

petvas · Feb 6, 2008, 04:17 PM

The update improves compatibility with 3rd party products, Apple says

MacBoobsPro · Feb 6, 2008, 04:24 PM

Seems like they are releasing 10.5.2 in stages.

Shadow · Feb 6, 2008, 04:41 PM

Just gonna wait for 10.5.2 and install it as a bunch instead of restarting a few times

junior77 · Feb 6, 2008, 04:41 PM

I wonder if this will fix all the issues I've been having with Itunes when trying to play movies...

one1 · Feb 6, 2008, 04:47 PM

I had to do the same for Macromedia fireworks and the other packages with fireworks (contribute, etc). Also Final Cut and Logic Pro. Basically it is updating nearly every product it seems.

Apple has posted an update to Quicktime bringing it to version 7.4.1 today. Updates are available for Leopard, Tiger, Panther, and Windows.

Apple reports the new Quicktime addresses security issues and improves compatibility with third-party applications. Specifically, the update addresses a possible vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution. This release is recommended for all QuickTime 7 users, and requires a restart.

Apple has released a number of small software updates over this past week.

They'd better be referring to Adobe After Effects.
7.4 borked some of our Macs at work.
There were a lot of angry video editors when it was released

Every time I see a news item that says "Apple Updates..." and it's not followed by "MacBook Pro", I feel like I've been kicked in the berries.

kabunaru · Feb 6, 2008, 04:59 PM

Enough of these small updates. Where is the big one (Mac OS 10.5.2)?

really?? i didn't know anyone was a fan of QT, let alone a huge fan. it's a strange program, really. all the really good functionalities only come with adding perian and flip4mac...and its exporting is so slow that it's practically useless in that function. and it's the source of a lot of security problems...what's so great about QT again?

Taylor C · Feb 6, 2008, 05:03 PM

I feel like I'm being toyed with.

Maybe QT's greatness is that it allows for such things as perian and flip4mac. This is, it provides plugin, extensible support for media playback integrated within the OS X environment.

more than can be said about Windows Media Player or whatever they're calling it these days.
