Follow Up--QuickTime 5 Public Preview Install Problem

that we covered yesterday is not completely fixed by removing the QT4 QuickTime Extensions Folder from the Extensions Folder before installing QT5. The "Out of Date" error is fixed but not all necessary extensions in the QuickTime Extensions Folder are reinstalled by QT5 using the "Full" install option. It appears actually best to leave the QT4 QuickTime Extensions Folder in and use the "Custom" install option, click the "Select All" button and click the "Install" button. This procedure results in all the QT4 extensions being replaced and 2 more added to the folder. [Thanks to Phill Bogart for pointing this out.]
