Getting Started
with QuickTime Pro

Learn how to use the advanced playback options in
QuickTime Pro, create movie postcards, and share them
via email or the web.

Getting QuickTime Pro

To get QuickTime Pro, choose a QuickTime Pro menu item and click Buy Now, or choose
QuickTime Player > Buy QuickTime Pro.

You must be connected to the Internet using the computer on which you want
QuickTime Pro installed. You may need to restart QuickTime Player to make the new
options available.

Using Advanced Playback Options

With QuickTime Pro, you have additional options for playing movies, such as playing a
movie on a second display, and more.

Playing a Movie on a Second Display

With QuickTime Pro and a two-display setup with dual display support, you can play a
movie on one display while working in another application on the other display. This
arrangement is useful for presentations.

Mac OS X: Make sure Mirror Displays is not selected. (Open System Preferences, click
Displays, and click Arrangement. If you don’t see an Arrangement button, your
computer does not support this feature.)

Windows: Whether you can play a movie on a second display depends on your
computer and monitor. Open the Display control panel, click Settings, and make sure
that the second display is enabled. If it is not enabled, click it and make sure “Extend
my Windows desktop onto this monitor” is selected.
