Quicktime 7 *was* part of the operating system and there may be some 
legacy parts still left over in High Sierra (10.13), but Quicktime X 
technically replaced it way back in 2009 - nearly 10 years ago. 
(Admittedly the last update to Quicktime 7 was January 2016 though.)

Nothing relatively new and a lot of it probably doesn't even still work 
on the newer macOS versions for various reasons.

What would those bee?

If I understand correctly, the point above is that QT7 was *systemic*, 
not simply a stand-alone app.  As such it was then relaced for 
*systemic use* by QTX, not simply a stand-alone app.  As a systemic 
mechanism, I'm wondering what app(s) make (made?) systemic currently 
use of QTX, and demonstrate its not-just-app utility.

"Quicktime" is a large set of routines and they are used by various 
apps, and not just for video. Nobody would be able to give you a 
definitive list of which apps use the Quicktime routines, let alone 
which ones still use version 7 instead of version X. Any proerly 
written new app will be using Quicktime X.

The problem for some people is the Quicktime *PLayer* 7 app because 
they still use it for the editing functions which are not available in 
the Quicktime *Player* X app. The Quicktime *Player* 7 app is not 
64-bit, so one of of the many old apps that
may start having problems in macOS 10.14 ('Mojave') and won't work at 
all in 10.15 ... and the same will be true for many, if not all, of the 
old apps that use Quicktime 7 routines.

The reality is that the OS moves on. Old apps stop working and you need 
to upgrade or replace those as well. Nobody is forcing you to upgrade, 
at least not until your computer dies and you buy a new one.

Who asked for a definitive list? I get it: Too many to name a few.

Only the developers will know for certain, and only for their app(s).

Many Mac apps that displayed animation/video prior to 2009 used
QuickTime APIs, and many of them continued past 2010. You can no doubt
run many of those older versions still today (QuickTime Player 7 being
one example). But most any app in that category that has been updated in
recent years now uses AV Foundation APIs instead.

No, it was an old app that used old APIs. It's not complicated: 

* "QuickTime Player 7" is an app that uses the older QuickTime APIs. 
* Third-party apps can also use those older QuickTime APIs. 
* Those older QuickTime APIs have been deprecated for a long time.
* Apple has replaced them with newer APIs - namely "AV Foundation". 
* Up-to-date apps use AV Foundation these days, including the newer
"QuickTime Player" app in more recent versions of macOS.

I think I get the entire concept now.  I'm just wondering what 
programs, discontinued, deprecated, unsupported--I just wonder for 
example what they might be, other than of course QuickTime Players of 
any variety.

Apart from QuickTime Player 7, some I mentioned recently:

- Final Cut Pro 7 (and probably other parts of Final Cut Studio, most of
which is already broken on recent macOS versions for other reasons). The
modern Final Cut Pro does not use the old QuickTime frameworks.

- MPEG StreamClip. Not updated for many years, probably abandoned.

Less certain but at least references the QuickTime framework:

- EyeTV. Elgato sold it to Geniatech last year, and a major new version
is apparently in the works. (I've had version 3 since 2008, and it has
been regularly updated since then.)

All 32-bit frameworks will be gone in macOS 10.15 (late 2019), so any
developers who still have "supported" 32-bit applications have about a
year left to update the application to use modern frameworks (which in
some cases will involve a significant rewrite of the application).
QuickTime is just one of the 32-bit frameworks that will be going away.

Older major versions of applications are more likely to be using older
frameworks, so end users sticking to an old version are more likely to
find it is broken by macOS 10.15.

Applications abandoned by the developer are in a similar situation.

Thanks so much.  That was damned educatiional, particularly in the 
respect that I can throw a few mentioned apps away.  Only stored for 
throwing at inscrutable problems, I can assume they will further no 
cause.

You can still run them under the old OS if you set-up your Mac to 
dual-boot, or under virtualisation when you buy a brand new Mac 
incapable of running the old OS itself, or emulation if Apple does 
eventually change Macs over to it's own ARM chips.

They've never been of any use, I would not shift my chair a few degrees 
off axis to use them.  They are in my digital shoebox only for what 
they *might have provided*, which know appears to be nothing.  Now they 
can be discarded.

It is worth noting that if you have some occasionally useful older
applications that can operate well enough in a somewhat constrained
environment (no heavy use of GPU, moderate amount of memory), a
practical option may be to run virtual machine software with an older
version of macOS as a guest.

For example, I use this method to occasionally run old applications like
AppleWorks 6 (PowerPC only) and FileMaker Pro 11 for converting even
older file formats for other people, where the applications in question
already don't run on the current macOS version, and have either been
abandoned or later versions don't support older file formats.

Sadly there are too many "let's attack owl for no reason" people in this group and not enough users with the patience to help the people with Android. 

Just 'The Fool' Wondering and owl both lie nonstop and flagrantly and continue to do so. So no motivation in showing any further respect or control. Just 'The Fool' Wondering is far too stupid to write a complex script. The only scripting he's capable of doing is click, click, drool, drool. 

I am working on code which will show off how weak OS X is.

At one point, Snit said an online denizen was "obsessing" over him, which was nothing more than mentioning any of his socks. Ending support for Mac Classic is long overdue. Was that meant to be to me? Are you being transparent on purpose? 

Now that Jonas Eklundh realized how effective Snit is at playing 'scapegoat' he sees this is not quite as bizarre as it appeared. Who are you even speaking to? 

So, yeah, I buy into my own fancy, fully knowing it is not real, because it makes me reconsider my code, improving it.

Peter 'The Moron' Köhlmann is mere seconds away from being in my kill filter. 

It was Peter 'The Moron' Köhlmann who stated that he and his hired winos used to break windows all the time and it was arousing, not even worth losing sleep over. Now Owl on the other end of the crap doesn't matter. All that matters is Peter 'The Moron' Köhlmann gets to deliver the punchline. So how to deal with this? Don't do anything but ignore the post. Honest discussion isn't part of contrivance and never will be. Peter 'The Moron' Köhlmann is again seen declaring "NOT THERE" when it comes to text on a site where it is written with other words... but Peter 'The Moron' Köhlmann is just too soft in the head or too in over your head to interpret any info he finds. He is as incompetent as Peter 'The Moron' Köhlmann.

Quicktime as an application comes with the system as a "viewer". And
older version of Quicktime (version 7) had the optional purchased of a
licence which enabled certain basic editing functions.

This functionality was removed in later versions, but instead of
replacing the Quicktime app files during upgrades, it moved it to
"Utilities", while providing the newer version in "Applications".

So those who had purchased the extra license for Quicktime 7 got to
preserve this when the app was moved to Utilities and left alone.


The older versions of Quicktime application made use of the quicktime
APIs. (this includes Quicktime 7). Those APIs are going away next year,
and because Quicktime 7 is old and 32 bits, so will it.

The current version of the Quicktime viewer app is 64 bits and uses the
new 64bit APIs so will not be affected when the older apis are
widthdrawn next year.

*NO*, that's why people are getting confused.

"Quicktime" is the video and audio component of macOS - it's part of 
the system software and has been since before OS X.

"Quicktime Player" is Apple's viewer app, but many other apps also use 
the Quicktime system functions, and not only video / audio ones either.

In other words...anything that links with the QuickTime framework will
go away, right?

sh-3.2$ otool -L '/Applications/Utilities/QuickTime Player 7.app/Contents/MacOS/QuickTime Player 7'|grep -i quicktime.framework
	/System/Library/Frameworks/QuickTime.framework/Versions/A/QuickTime (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1729.0.0)
sh-3.2$ file /System/Library/Frameworks/QuickTime.framework/Versions/A/QuickTime
/System/Library/Frameworks/QuickTime.framework/Versions/A/QuickTime: Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386

(i.e. QuickTime framework is strictly 32-bit)

Now...if you want to script a check of all *.app/Contents/MacOS/* for
whether they link to that framework, be my guest.  Expect running it
to be really slow, even on a fast system.  And actually, you'd need to
check if any other executable or dylib within the app bundle was
linked to the QuickTime framework too.  There's really no easy way to
answer the question, in other words.  But since all those will be 32-bit
apps, and it IS easy to get a list of those (About This Mac ->
System Report -> Software -> Applications; stretch the window wider as needed
to see the 64-bit Yes/No column), whatever uses the old
QuickTime framework will be among those.

Looks like the old iDVD and iWeb apps (long gone) used it; also Remote Buddy,
Rezilla, the old free version of Senuti before it went commercial, etc;
some surprises in other words, not just stuff that obviously does video.

The only way that I could disregard SC's constant demand for fixing because of dependency dilemmas or buggy incompatibilities is if I enjoyed the constant number of pipe dreams its developers have been feeding benj since 1986.What !Jones does is certainly better. 

Gee, imagine benj trying to pin his gobbledegook on !Jones and me, no one has ever seen that before 8|. 

I will reverse engineer beetles with my brain. Habits change. Perhaps the concept of a newspaper is getting to be old fashion. 

Open source is only less expensive if your time has no value. LOL! How did benj get so conceited he thinks everything is about him??
