Here it is at last QuicktTime 4. Help files.

Goodday all,
As the Apple Host site is so spammed up with javascripting, and All things X ish, and PCish, I am posting up an archive of Quicktime 4 help as an attachment, Apple might post the file up on their site, but there again they might not under the proviso about being busy doing X stuff, to cut to the chase, and cull the nonsense:
Here's the low down.
Quicktime 4. help as it installs with Mac OS 9, check.
Installs the route archive folders and index, minus the pages as folders of the book.
The result is the top level indexs, minus the substance.
Thousands of postings appear on boards asking where Quicktime help actually is, these could have been quickly addressed, its where the software application looks for it. But since X, it ain't. Apple have attempted to provide a compendium of a help pdf, but this does not inteface with Quicktime 4.
Further with the persistant rearrangements and updates of the Apple host site, most people are lucky to find anything pertaining mildly to their needs on legacy stuff, unless it predates 1998, let alone what they require, even if they can get past the stoic idiots that still attest that compatible OS rule the roost. We on Mac OS 9 are simply not interested in downgrading to a Mac X AKA PC OS, but that is not my point here, the point is just because some idiots do want that, why should the Mac OS 9 community be forced not to have the support parts they bought.
The bottom line to all the X changes are the Apple removed the Online help from the Application address, and recommend Quicktime 7 which probably requires some kind of X rated OS also.
As many people left their Mac OS 9 auto updates on, until finding themselves getting into a mess, and being advised by Apple to switch that feature off, many people out their after a reinstall don't possess now Quicktime Help 4 which should have come with their original install. So the mails go too and fro, and everyone thinks the other person ain't looking hard enough.
Well I did, this archive posting is not simple a hex up of the folder from a system install. It is the painstaking recovery of the original Mac OS 9 Quicktime 4. help files of yester year, from all over the place, some from my system, some from online which for some reason, aren't to be found on the Apple main site, and some I had to create.
More info about this Quicktime Help 4 folder is in the disk image, archive.

Thank you
