Proper movie playback may not be possible on some Macintosh models. If you experience problems, try the following.

Change the movie image quality setting to “STD” or “LP”.

Upgrade to the latest version of QuickTime.

Shut down other applications that are running.

Even if proper playback is not possible on your Macintosh, you can use the AV cable that comes bundled with the camera to connect to the video input terminal a TV or Macintosh and play back movies that way.

Be sure to move the movie data to the hard disk of your Macintosh before trying to play it. Proper movie playback may not be possible for data accessed over a network, from a memory card, etc.
