Hiya....
My Computer is a Macintosh Beige G3 minitower,
circa 1998, with 266Mhz, 128MB and OS 8.1
I went to the website of my favorite radio talk show host and decided I
wanted to try listening to the show online. A message from the website
told me, that inorder to listen online, I needed to download MS Media
player 6.3 for Mac (yuk), which I did. When I tried to use it, it told me
I needed a newer version of Quicktime (I had version 2.1). I went to the
Quicktime download site and downloaded the newest version ... 4.1.2. The
Quicktime Readme seems to be saying I can do almost anything with sound but
fly to the moon. Now, I'm wondering if I really need MS Media player 6.3
and is it possible I could use Quicktime 4.1.2 to listen to the talkshow,
instead? Media players and I are complete strangers except for opening
those sent-to-me sound and music files with SoundApp and MPEG players like
Real Audio which no longer seems to be free. All enlightenment is
welcome....:-)
I hope I'm in the right pew...:-)... I tried sending to IOMUG at the "old"
location and got an "unauthorized" rejection slip. So I'm assuming the
moving truck has arrived early at the new destination, known as "e" in my
nickname file. I'd heard the move wouldn't be complete
till January 1st.
