I'm getting there...

Slowly, slowly, oh so slowly...

But I am having one problem and maybe someone out there can help...

Quicktime is being a shithead regarding .mov files, basically.
It's been set as the default player for them but if you double click on a .mov file from my documents it gives you the message "Couldn't finish initialising application because the file was not found"

OK, now we've checked in the folder options and .movs are defaulted to play in quicktime and they're pointed to the right program and that's all good and hunky dory. And if you START quicktime and THEN open the .mov then it plays fine. If you click and drag the .mov then it plays fine, it just won't do anything if you double click it.

I don't understand and I don't know how to fix it.

Anyone got any suggestions? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Have you tried right-clicking and selecting the "open with..." option? Does it even give you that option? If so, click on it and pick the working Quicktime version to run the programs. That should reset your preference on the computer.

They're already set to open with QT. The file just doesn't load when you access it that way.

I've decided I'm too lazy to try and fix it. I'll live with click and drag for the moment. XD
