Troubleshooting Problems Opening 3GPP2 Files

Common 3GPP2 Opening Problems

Apple QuickTime Player Removed

When trying to open your 3GPP2 file, you get the error "Can't Open 3GPP2 File Type". If this is the case, it's usually due to the fact that you do not have Apple QuickTime Player for - installed on your computer. The OS won't know what to do with your 3GPP2 file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.

Tip: Another 3GPP2-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.

Obsolete Version of Apple QuickTime Player

Your Multimedia Files For Wireless Networks file is incompatible with Apple QuickTime Player because you might have the wrong version installed. You will need to download a newer version of Apple QuickTime Player if you don't have the right version. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.

Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the 3GPP2 file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.

Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening 3GPP2 files are due to having the wrong version of Apple QuickTime Player installed.
