Title: Pro Tools LE Version 5.01 requires Quicktime?
Post by: gert79 on December 11, 2023, 05:06:14 AM

Hello community!

I am new to OS9 and currently trying to build a DAW setup with a QS 2002.

Naturally i disabled all Quicktime extensions as i thought they are not needed, now i get an error when i try to install pro tools.

Can anybody please tell me which Quicktime extensions i should enable to be able to install?

Compared to other operating systems where QuickTime does not exists or is just a foreigner, on OS 9 it is the multimedia backbone. True, there is maybe one or two extensions that can be disabled (like QuickTime VR) if you don't need this extra feature but most of them are essential.

Glad that your DAW install is up and running :)
