VBS Quicktime Installation Guide

Installing Quicktime has been greatly simplified in recent versions, but still offers some confusing options. VBS has created an illustrated guide to installing and configuring Quicktime so it is as unobtrusive as possible. This document draws upon our experience with Quicktime and a guide on correcting the 10060 Connection Error published by The Arizona Academy for the Performing Arts. This guide focuses on installation for Windows only. Mac users should use the Software Update tool to install or update Quicktime. In Mac OS 10 or higher, this can be found in the System Preferences window.

If you haven't downloaded Quicktime already, click on the link below to download it.
