Apple Quicktime For Mac

Download QuickTime Player 10.5 for Mac from our website for free. This free software for Mac OS X was originally produced by Apple Inc. This Mac download was checked by our antivirus and was rated as safe. The application is sometimes distributed under different names, such as 'QuickTime Player 7', 'QuickTime Player 2', 'QuickTime Player copy'. Apple never updated QuickTime 7 for modern use and after it was released in 2005 Apple knew they were not be going to update it. They did with QuickTime X and it's what we have on Mac. Notice, too, that there are not any iPad or iOS updates to QuickTime and it is 'baked in' to iOS.

By upgrading for free, you'll be getting the advanced features of QuickTime Pro without the price tag. Sounds like a good deal, right? We'll read on!

Part 1: QuickTime vs. QuickTime Pro

Before you decide whether getting a free upgrade to QuickTime Pro is right for you, let's take a moment to compare QuickTime Pro to its free counterpart. You might find that the basic version of QuickTime already has all of the features you need, and takes up rather less disk space. Sticking with QuickTime could be right for you, in such a case.

So, what are some of the features which are included in QuickTime Pro that aren't in the original QuickTime? We've prepared a list for you, so check them out:

More you can get from QuickTime Pro

  • Create and edit videos, including applying special FX
  • Compress videos with new codecs
  • Create slideshows with music
  • Convert images to different formats
  • Watch videos in full-screen
  • Save videos from the web
  • MIDI input for synthesisers and musical instruments
  • Cropping and resizing of videos

What you can only get from QuickTime free

  • Playback of 30 common audio and video formats
  • View images
  • Stream media
  • Windowed mode only

So you can see that QuickTime is great if all you want to do is watch your favourite videos, but if you want to get into video editing, making your own movies and picture slideshows, or even just watch your videos in full-screen, you might want to consider upgrading.

Part 4: Alternative to QuickTime Pro for Mac

Mac

If you own a Mac, QuickTime Pro isn't the only game in town. If you like the idea of QuickTime Pro's features, but not its price tag, and downloading it or getting a serial code for it from elsewhere isn't something you're keen on, there are several good alternatives.

Video playback and editing programs are increasingly common, so how do you know which one is right for you? We've compiled a list, complete with a brief description, to help you decide which is the right one for you and your Mac. Of course, if none of these sound right for you, there's always an alternative to QuickTime or QuickTime Pro!

VLC Media Player

The media player is very versatile and can handle a great many different video formats. It allows for full-screen and windowed viewing, It even has Blu-ray support. For playback, it's great, but it lacks the creative and editing features of QuickTime Pro. However, if what you were missing was greater code support and a full-screen mode, it's a great alternative.

iMovie

iMovie comes bundled with your Mac. It's a simple video editor, and if you want to make a picture slideshow with music, or edit home video or downloaded video, it's a great place to start.

KMPlayer

This media player is compatible with your Mac as well as your iPad or iPhone. It supports many different file formats, as well as full-screen viewing. It lacks the creating and editing capabilities of QuickTime Pro, though.
