QuickTake 100 & System 7.5.3 Incompatibility (10/96)

After installing the System 7.5 Update 2.0 on my Power Macintosh, I am no longer able to view pictures from my QuickTake 100. When trying to view a picture, the application either quits or I get a message that says "Unable to view the slide because of an error."


This was previously thought to be an incompatibility with the System Update 2.0 Enabler. However, through further investigation, we have determined the cause to be an incompatibility between QuickTime 2.1 and the QuickTake 1.0 application. To correct this, you need to use QuickTime 2.5 instead of QuickTime 2.1.
