*Need help playing CanoFun vids!*
How do I play these on my Mac? Every time I try to play one of these vids, iTunes opens up, and the little colored wheel starts spinning. How bizarre!

1. Hmmmmmm
I'm unclear as to the political ramifications of this particular question.

But I would say it is probably another sign that Bush is an idiot.

3. Try these
Make sure you have the latest Windows Media Player and Quick Time players. You can find them at their respective websites. If this doesn't work.....control/click on the file and download it to your desktop and play it from there. Hope this helps.

6. I'm looking into converters-techie question if anyone knows
I'm not familiar with the file formats for MACs. In cursory reading, it seems like MP4 is the latest file format for video that works with Quicktime and is a step up from MOV. Yes? The converter I have right now will convert to MP2. Will MACs read MP2 MPEG files?

Second, is MP4 actually the same as IPOD format video files? If so, I see an IPOD video converter that goes WMV to MP4.

Any recommendations on converters?
