I'm running QT7.6, with no trouble with JPG files. No way I can help
with Oxford, I'm a Cal man myself. :-)
For the other problem:
- Start QT
- Edit=>Preferences=>Quick Time Preferences
- Select Browser tab
- Click on File Types... button
- Uncheck .jpg and .jpeg. (and anything else that strikes you as
inappropriate for QT to be default for.
- Click Save.
This was easy to find. Don't give up so easily.
Like my experience with other Apple apps on Windoze, QT want to rule the
world. When I started it up from the Programs menu for the first time
(rather than being auto called up to play something), I got a pop-up
that says:
"Some of the file types associated with Quick Time applications are
currently associated with other applications. Should I restore these
file type associations to Quick Time?" [Note how the application
anthropomorphizes itself!]
I clicked the Don't ask again box, then the No box. :-)
