Overview

Sporting a new brushed steel skin for Apple's newest operating system, this new version of our player opens the world of Windows Media 9 content to Macintosh users, enabling them to access the best audio and video on the web. New plug-in support added for Internet Explorer, Netscape and Safari enables playback of Windows Media files right from the browser. Optimized specifically for the Macintosh, the player provides intuitive design, reliable performance, and compatibility with most popular Macintosh models and system software. If you don't have Mac OS X, get the Windows Media Player for Mac 7.1 which runs on the Mac Classic OS.

Windows Media Player 9 for Mac OS X is available for download in two file formats: MacBinary (.bin) and BinHex (.hqx). Although the file formats differ, both files contain the same version of Windows Media Player.

The default file format, MacBinary, is smaller and generally takes less time to download. However, if you experience difficulty downloading the MacBinary file, try downloading the larger BinHex file instead (see BinHex Download link in Related Resources section).
