Q: midi; how do i hear midi files on mac book pro
I want to play a midi file on my Mac Book Pro; I cant. Quick Time stated a codec is required and seems I am not presented with any solution by Apple store or any on-line help.
El capitan 10.11.3 (15D21)
MAC book Pro
2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 512 MB
MacBook, OS X El Capitan (10.11)

You should be able to play it in the Quicktime 7 player, available here:
Download QuickTime Player 7 for Mac OS X v10.6.3 or later
It works in Mavericks - I can't guarantee it will work in El Capitan. Alternatively open Garegeband, clear down any project it loads, then drag the MIDI file onto its icon in the Dock.
