Hi. I need your help. Whenever I try to download a quicktime movie from the internet, either by command clicking it or by using the menu, save as quicktime movie is always grayed out. How or where can I download them?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Its grayed out because in order to save Quicktime Files from the net you have to upgrade to Quicktime Pro. The other solution is to open the folder that you browsers cache is stored in (its usually in your prefrences folder in the system folder) and sort the window by size. Usually you will be able to tell which file is the movie file. Just drag it to the desktop and rename it whatever you want!

Good luck

Tarzan - If you're using I.E., try Netscape.
PS - Try Net.4.78,not 6.
