Hi Tom, you are having a similar problem I had while trying to play a movie. the movie had an AVI extension, so I thought winamp would play it, no soap. it would come up in winamp but wouldn't play. I had to make windows media player the default player to play the avi file.

the problem is with quicktime, I don't know of a way to change file type associations. if you can find out how to change the file types in quicktime, you could disable the association. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Kaufman" <tomca...@comcast.net>

Gary: I think I got to the right page you are telling me to go; problem is that Winamp (that's what II want as my default player) isn't there! I think
in Winamp preferences, I _do_ have it checked to play all file types.
However, when I try to download this particular podcast, Quicktime just
jumps on in there and plays the file; this is not what I want! I want to be able to ddownload the podcast as I used to! So I need to know what it is I
have to do to accomplish this?

Why don't you just change the default programs in windows. I think you are
using windows 7, so go into control and find default settings.

when there, tab over to list view. hit a letter such as windows for windows media player and tab to where it says make default program, hit apply, then
okay and see if that does what you want.

Hello list: A couple of days ago or so, I posted a question concerning an
audio podcast I have been trying to download.  I recently installed
Quicktime on my machine in anticipation of getting something that uses
that
program to play the file!  It used to be that when I would download these
podcasts, it would give me the choice whether to listen or to save. Since
I've put Quicktime on here, when I click the link, it immediately opens
Quicktime and starts playing the file; this is _not_ want I want!  Is
there
a way around this problem?  Must I uninstall Qu9icktime in order to do
what
I want?  I sure hope not, for what I am hoping to get (so it would seem)
will only play in Quicktime; it's a video that was taken of a part of a
country Christmas show our band was involved in! So if anyone can come up
with a way around this problem I have (seems to me all I'd need to do is
to
tell Quicktime to just "sit down and shut up until I need it".but I have
found no way to accomplish this!  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance!

Tom Kaufman
