Hi Cynthia-

Are you looking at a Quick Time movie and want to save the individual
frames?  If so, that is not possible.  The Quick Time viewer is only
an viewer and does not have any editing capabilities. 

However, if you have an IDV display with animation, you can capture the
individual frames using the View->Capture->Movie... menu.  You can use
the Image Files section of that dialog to save the files to a  directory
with a particular naming scheme.
