You can still use QT 7 in SL. It is part of the optional install in the SL disc

Downloaded and installed fine on Leopard.

We know that. We are referring to the fact that the update is not available for Snow Leopard.

Looks as if for the present time those of us on snow leopard will miss out on the QT 7 Pro (7.6.4) update until apple pulls the finger out.

As part of iTunes 9.0 requires QT 7.6.4 to work

• Support for HE-AAC requires QuickTime 7.6.4 and Mac OS X version 10.5 or later

I have posted at apple discussions asking why isn't there a version for SL users of QT 7 Pro 7.6.4

So far not much has been said

It looks so far as we are being left out in the cold with this update.

What is the QuickTime 7 version that ships with Snow Leopard?

If iTunes 9 requires today's version of QuickTime 7, then I think you'll see a "correction" of some sort tonight for our SL using friends.
