Troubles Opening 3GA Files

Apple QuickTime Player Isn't There

When you double-click your 3GA file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". Usually, this is because you do not have Apple QuickTime Player for %%os%% installed. Your operating system cannot associate your 3GA with Apple QuickTime Player, so double-clicking the file won't work.


Tip: When another 3GA application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.


Obsolete Version of Apple QuickTime Player

Your 3GPP Audio File file is incompatible with Apple QuickTime Player because you might have the wrong version installed. Visit the Apple website to download (or purchase) the latest version of Apple QuickTime Player. This problem is predominately due to having a 3GPP Audio File file version that was created by a newer version of Apple QuickTime Player than what you have installed on your PC.


Tip: Investigate your 3GA file by right-clicking and selecting "Properties" to find clues on what version you need.


Conclusion: The majority of 3GA file opening issues are due to not having the correct Apple QuickTime Player version installed.


Associated Difficulties Loading 3GA Files

You can still experience errors opening 3GA files even with the latest version of Apple QuickTime Player installed on your PC. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening 3GA files. Problems unrelated to software:

  • 3GA file type Registry entries are wrong
  • Unintentional removal of the description of the 3GA file inside the Windows Registry
  • Invalid installation of a 3GA-associated program (eg. Apple QuickTime Player)
  • 3GA file corruption
  • Past or present virus infection has affected your 3GA
  • Device drivers of the hardware associated with your 3GA file are corrupt or out-of-date
  • Too many applications are open on your PC to load your 3GPP Audio File file successfully
