Having trouble with the videos?

If neither the Windows Media® or QuickTime® movie files open and play on your computer, you will need to download and install a video player.

QuickTime is the native Apple® movie format, so chances are you will have less difficulty opening these files on your Mac. With that said, these files are not "streaming" from the website and will need to be entirely downloaded before playback can begin. After downloading is completed the video should start to play automatically. The QuickTime player can be downloaded here.

Windows Media files can be viewed on System 8.6 or later. These are streaming movies, so downloading will not take as long as with the QuickTime movies. To play the Windows Media movies on your Mac, you will need to download Windows Media Player 7.1 for the Mac, here.

The QuickTime player should have come standard with the OS X operating system. Clicking on either of the QuickTime movie links should launch the movie. These movies are not streaming video so they'll need to download completely before playback will begin. The video should begin playing automatically after downloading is completed.

The Windows Media files are streaming videos, therefore your download time should be less than with the QuickTime movies. A player for Windows Media files does not come standard with OS X. To download Windows Media Player 7.1, click here.
