QuickTime: Extras Folder on Macintosh CD

My Power Macintosh 7500 came with QuickTime. In the QuickTime Read Me file, it states the QuickTime Extras folder includes sample movie files, the QuickTime Musical instruments extension, and Movie Player 1.0. The Apple Extras folder on my hard disk contains a QuickTime Extras folder, but it does not contain any of these items. Where can I get these?
On current Macintosh computers, such as the Power Macintosh 7500, the Apple Extras on the hard disk contains a QuickTime extras folder. However, as you discovered, the folder does not contain the sample files. The CD-ROM disc also contains an Apple Extras folder. Within the Apple Extras folder there is a QuickTime Extras folder with sample movies, photos, and music. You can either drag these to your hard disk, or play them directly from the CD-ROM disc.
