A friend asked for some help and I don't know the first thing about Apples and Macs.
"is there anyone out there who knows why my QuickTime program won't play .wmv files even tho it seems to have the .wmv package when I open it up?"

He has been running a Windows ME (don't say it) box for years and just got a brand new iMac.
He is burning CD's to copy all of his old data, so any thoughts on some way to make an electronic connection would be great.

Bottom line - how can he play .wmv files? -- and the data transfer piece would be gravy.

VLC Player is an excellent multi platform player.
