QUICKTIME FOR JAVA PROBLEMS
|
||||
|
||||
- quicktime for java is still required on windows. it's required on
|
||||
macosx too, but it's installed there by default. the requirement
|
||||
will be removed in a later release for people who don't want to use
|
||||
video, but the fix is more difficult than anticipated, so it will
|
||||
probably happen after the initial beta release.
|
||||
probably happen after the initial beta release.
|
||||
|
||||
- on windows, if you can't install quicktime for java yourself, all
|
||||
you really need is a copy of QTJava.zip from the quicktime install,
|
||||
which needs to be at %WINDIR%\system32\QTJava.zip. WINDIR is an
|
||||
environment variable on windows, open up a DOS prompt and type
|
||||
echo %WINDIR%
|
||||
to find out what it's set to (prolly something like C:\windows on
|
||||
windows xp/me/98 or c:\winnt on windows 2000).
|
||||
|
||||
- quicktime for java is missing from quicktime 6.4 on the mac. this is
|
||||
the version of quicktime that was released with the windows version
|
||||
of itunes and all that other bunk. it's apple's fault, unfortunately:
|
||||

|
||||
you can download a reinstaller for quicktime 6.3 if the upgrade is
|
||||
making you sad and has just broken all your applets:

||||

|
||||
|
||||
- for the mac, a workaround for the 6.4 bug if you don't actually
|
||||
need to use video, is to put a copy of QTJava.zip into
|
||||
/System/Library/Java/Extensions, which is where it's normally
|
||||
installed (you'll have to use 'sudo' to move it in there).
|
||||
this will pacify Processing and at least allow you to run programs
|
||||
until apple has released a fix.
