QT, Front Row updated


Apple today released QuickTime 7.1 for Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows, delivering numerous important bug fixes and addressing critical security issues in the company's multimedia software. Apple also issued an important notice to users of older QuickTime Pro installations prior to version 7, reminding them that they must purchase a new QuickTime 7 Pro key to regain QuickTime Pro functionality after updating. Apple highly recommends the update for all QuickTime 7 users. QuickTime 7.1 requires Mac OS X 10.3.9 and later or Microsoft Windows 2000 or XP. Apple also released a Front Row Update that delivers a variety of fixes for better reliability and compatibility when playing music, photos, and videos on your Macintosh. [updated]

    is this a good download?

    Am I the only one getting errors installing this? I'm completely QuickTime-less at the moment, because the 7.1 install failed.

    Purchase again!?

    Are you kidding me? I just bought not too long ago! Am I the only one really upset about this?

    You don't have to purchase again.

    It's only restating what was said with QT 7.0, which is that owners of Quicktime 4-6 Pro, need to pay to get Pro 7 functionality. My 7.0 Pro key is still working fine.
