Quicktime for Mac
August 1, 2014 at 5:19 pm
I have a Mac OS X 10.8.5, and am attempting to install QuickTime, which I previously had, but I seem to have corrupted/deleted it. It was off of here:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/#quicktime
But now I just seem to have a .pkg file, and am unsure of how to proceed.
Any questions/comments, etc?

UPDATE: OK, so it does seem like I completed my latest video OK, but it is huge! I need to figure out how to trim it.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I use a mixture of OS X, Linux Mint, and Ubuntu.

Ubuntu sounds like a good idea, but could I keep Itunes, PC games, programs, VLC media player, etc? I can't live without those

You can run most pc games in a wine environment. Not great, but you can dual boot Windows if you want to game still. ITunes is a no go, but doubletwist or rhythmbox are fantastic subs. There are open source versions for nearly everything else. VLC is absolutely available on Linux.

Go PC. That's your best solution. Have an iPhone too? Go android. Soon you will have issues with your cellular device too.
