Is quicktime 7 pro (OS10.3.9 version) compatible with FCP4.5 HD?

[Rrayburn]

No….go to the Apple.com site and find the Quicktime download to take out the QT 7 from your computer and restore 6.5.2.
FCP 4.5 with QT7 will do so many wierd things…it would be too hard to list…but Apple has acknowledged the mistake of offering the free upgrade download to users without warning FCP users that it is incompatable with FCP versions below 5.0. (nice there is a fix)…….. Just takes a few minutes and it works well after the 6.5.2 version is reinstalled.

Could you list a few of the weird things it does? I’ve seen 4.5 running with QT7 without problems, so perhaps there are specific things or pieces of hardware that don’t work with this configuration.

All the best,
