How to uninstall QT 7.4.1

[Zane Barker]

Quicktime is a core component in the OS so unlike other programs you cannot just App Zap it.

You will have to reinstall your OS and then only update quicktime to the level that you choose.

Don’t let technology get in the way of your creativity!

I’m working on a G5 dual, Kona LH, and trying to work towards getting FCP 6.x running.

If I can remember correctly, here is what I have done:

1. I used an OSX 10.4.5 installation disk to do an “Archive and Install” procedure, choosing the option, “Preserve Users and Network Settings.”

2. Then, I ran the OSX 10.4.11 upgrade.

3. Next, I installed a previous version of QT that will be compatible with the version of FCP I hope to run and compatible with the driver for the hardware I am using (in this case Kona LH). I believe the Tiger 10.4.5 install default was QT 7.0.4. I upgraded to 7.3.1, the closest thing to QT 7.3, which is what an AJA support staff member recommended.

3. Following the above, I updated the Kona LH drivers, which I believe get un-installed by the “Archive and Install” process. Kona LH Driver 5.0 is the version I’m now using.

4. Finally, I installed FCP 6. (I like how you can now choose where to put the media, btw.)

So far, after remembering I had to make proper settings in the AJA Control panel….I’m getting good capture and playback.
