Hi, So I installed Avid Free this morning on my OS X 10.4.10 and it totally messed up my computer, it basically wouldnt start up, it would get to the icons on desktop stage and then go back to black.  And it just ran in a loop like that, over and over. I reinstalled my OS X to 10.4 and I no longer have the problem.  I cant recall if the QuickTIme I had was more recent than 7.0 but it is currently 7.0 and my computer is running fine with the Avid Free Software.

So my question is, I am probably going to need to update my OS X and my QuickTime but I am afraid I will get the same computer problems if I have this Avid Free on there- does anybody know of any incompatibilities with Avid Free OS X 10.4.10 or more recent versions of QuickTime?

Thanks!!

Free DV was discontinued a LONG time ago. It is not supported on  any Intel Mac OS, whatsoever.

I would go so far as to say do not install Free DV on any Mac past a G4 running 10.4.6.

Welcome to the forums BTW!

Hi there, I wont reinstall it then, but for my own reference, do you know what that meant when it went into that loop?

Thanks!
