Quicktime seems to be out of date

But when I click the UPDATE button, it tells me Quicktime data from Server invalid. How do I fix this?

If you just want QuickTime updated by whatever means, go to the QuickTime tab above, click on the Download link, and download the QT installer (with or without iTunes, as appropriate for your situation) and run that.
As to the problem connecting to the update server, perhaps someone else will have more specific suggestions, but it may well be a firewall on your system or network blocking access to the server.
Regards.

Are you using the lastest version of Firefox for os 10.4.11? If you are, start using TenFourFox. Quicktime works just fine with that browser.

HT1338 OSX 10.4.11 update quicktime. Browser says out of date. Updater says up-to-date. Is this version no longer supported. How to update QuickTime and Java then?

OSX 10.4.11 Updates to QuickTime and Java.
Browser says out of date. Updater says up-to-date. Is this version no longer supported?
How can I update QuickTime and Java then without upgarding? I wish to keep a back channel to OS9

Mac OS X Tiger was discontinued years ago, and if Software Update doesn't detect any new update, it's because you are running the latest Java and QuickTime version for Tiger.
Apart from that, I see that you have a G5, so the most recent Mac OS X version you can use is Mac OS X Leopard, another version that it's (or it's going to be) discontinued soon. PowerPC support is completely dead now, and if you want the most recent QuickTime and Java versions, you will need a Intel-based Mac with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, that have got the latest Java 6 versions and they are compatible with Java 7

Trying to update Adobe Flash Player: 'update' seems to be OUT of date

I've been trying to download updated version of Adobe Flash Player over & over again for over two hours. The only available version reads 'updated April 19, 2013' and does not work - I am still seeing "blocked plug-in" everywhere there should be a video playing. How do I find and download the most up to date version? (If this IS the most up to date version, what is the problem?)
What does this thing want??!!!?!

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 4.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
2. Triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
3. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
4. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
5. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
6. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

Can't get android sync to work - articles seem out of date

Hi, The articles on Mozilla about sync seem to be out of date. None match what I see on my screens and I have the most current versions.
I do not see a sync code link when I go to the sync menu on my pc.
I also go to the top right menu on my android and the sync button on the next screen does nothing.
Banging my head against the wall now. None of the articles match what I see on my pc screen or on my android screen.
my android also tells me my account login info is wrong even though I am logged in using the same info on my pc.
Please help. Thanks

Hi robert123456
1. If the article Kevin posted (thanks Kevin! ) is out of date then please let us know. I don't think it is.

Cheers!

Some of your QuickTime software is out of date. You can fix this problem...

I keep getting this error every time I start itunes or anything that uses QuickTime:
Some of your QuickTime software is out of date. You can fix this problem by updating to the latest version.
'Cancel' 'Do It Now'
If I click 'Cancel', the program seems to run fine. If I click "Do It Now', I get the following:
Information received from the QuickTime server is in valid. Please try again later.
I have tried everything and have had this problem since December of '06. Anyone know what this is and how to fix it?
Thanks

"Some of your quicktime software is out of date" Message

Hi,
I have a problem with quicktime for which I would like advice. The symptom is that each time quicktime is loaded or accessed, there is a pop-up message box which says,"Some of your quicktime software is out of date. You can fix this problem by updating to the latest version." There's a cancel button, which I use nearly every time, and a "Do It Now" button. Note that I am running the latest version of quicktime.
When I use the "Do It Now" button, I get an error message pop-up which says,"Information obtained from the Quicktime server is invalid. Please try again later." I don't use quicktime stand alone for anything, so I don't really know if it's working OK. It seems to be, but I've not done a thorough testing. The dominant symptom is in iTunes, where I experience lock-ups. I spoke with an Apple technical support person for a while about it, and we (re)did the compulsory uninstall, reinstall stuff to no avail.
The Apple guy pointed me to an Apple website detailing some methods to fix various problems with iTunes/quicktime. (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976) I have tried everything there. One of the things was an experiment to try to detect interactions with other programs. Using MSCONFIG, I did a custom start-up which enabled nothing but quicktime. No change. I have removed (ctrl-panel->add/remove programs...) many of the programs which were installed. No change.
Questions/Comments?
Thanks for any info,
jimmBob

I just got off the phone with an Apple technician, and we solved the error problem. Basically we just went through my whole computer searching for all quicktime and iTunes files that were left behind. Be sure to check your C: > Windows > System32 folder for ANY and ALL QuickTime files. The files we found that caused the error were hidden in a filed titled "quicktime" in the System32 folder. Make sure you delete it, uninstall all iTunes and QuickTime programs (including Apple Software Update and Apple Mobile Device Support) from the Control Panel, and reinstall the latest files for iTunes and QuickTime and the error should go away.
Hope this helps!

QuickTime Files Out of Date

Any time I start itunes,use the Apple site or try to use QuickTime, I get a pop up stating "Some of your Quick Time software is out of date. You can fix this by updating to the latest version (then choices of: 'Cancel', 'Do it now')". If I select 'Do it now', I get a second pop up which says "Information received from the Quick Time Server is Invalid. Please try again later."
Itunes seems to work if I select "Cancel". The Apple site keeps giving me the same popups.
I have uninstalled, and reinstalled Itunes/Quicktime with no impact. I've uninstalled the Apple Updater. I've tried the "DO it now" both behind a firewall and on an 'open' home DSL line with the same next pop up.
Thanks for your help.

Not of any help, but misery loves company. I am having the same problem with Windows XP that had some older versions of quicktime on it. I have attempted to all traces of the old software, but whenever I download and attempt to use the current Quicktime download I get an error code like yours where I am instructed that "Some of your quicktime software is out of date.You can fix this problem by updating to the latest version" The box in which the error message appears seems to be of the style seen with older windows programs like Win 98. Anyway, as long as the new Quicktime is installed but not working properly then I can not access the apple store. Also everytime the error code appears windows pops up with its own message stating that Quicktime has encountered a problem and needs to close.
I too found no boxes checked when I looked under compatability as suggested by one poster. I tool have found no viruses.
I have not tried the safe mode installation suggested by one poster.
Do you have any older games installed that used older versions of Quicktime?

Some of my plugins are listed as being out of date but I can't seem to fnd how to update them.

Hi All, I am not very good with computer i''m afraid and this latest issue has been dong my head in. i am using Firefox version 32.0.1 and after going to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/?utm_source=firefox-browser&utm_medium=firefox-browser&utm_campaign=plugincheck-update to check to see if my plugins are updated, a few at the top read as 'vulnerable' suggested Action: (Update) Now but After clicking the button to update I get redirected to a page that tells me what is included in the update without proving any links to the update itself as far as I can see. I also have a few plugins listed as 'unknown' suggested action: research but can't seem to find out how to update those either I guess they are no longer supported.
Cold anyone please advise me on ho to find the updates so the plugins are no longer vulnerable?

My apologies, my keyboard keys were not working well and I did not proofread before submitting the message, here is the corrected version.

Error message "some of your quicktime software is out of date...."

After about 8 hrs of troubleshooting so far I need help here...please...I have a new ipod touch 3g (32gb) that requires itunes-9 and i have itunes-8. when i try to load itunes-9 i get the same error message about apx. half way thru the install. at the point of install status "initializing quicktime types" the error message comes up: "some of your quicktime software is out of date, You can fix this problem by updating to the latest version" with the choice to "cancell" or "do it now" and I have tried "do it now" many times and other times tried cancell but either way it just ends up coming back many times with the same error message and either freezes the computer or eventually after maybe 15-20 error messages stops but the unstall is frozen. I have already tried uninstalling quicktime, itues, etc and spent 1.5 hours on the phone with Apple support and they can't figure it out. Please help...I appreciate your support.

Some other application may have installed older QuickTime componentry on the PC.
First let's have a closer look in your \system32\ to see if we can find any misplaced componentry down there.
First, in My Computer go "Tools > Folder Options". Click the "View" tab. Make sure "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and that "Hide extensions for known file types" is unchecked. OK out of the Tab.
Now navigate to C:\Windows\system32\. (It might be easiest to switch to "List" view at this point.)
What files or folders can you see in \system32\ with QuickTime in the title?
(On a PC with a standard QuickTime installation, you should see precisely two files:
QuickTime.qts
QuickTimeVR.qtx
... and no Quicktime folders whatsoever.)

Out of Date Quicktime Software

Whenever Quicktime loads (via iTunes, one of my son's computer games, etc.) I get an error window that reads:
"Some of your QuickTime software is out of date. You can fix this problem by updating to the latest version." I can click "cancel" or "Do It Now", but every time I click on "Do It Now" I get the following error "Information Received from the QuickTime server is invalid. Please try again later."
Once I got it to get me to an install screen and it ran fine, but then I had this problem again. I've removed Quicktime, installed the latest version, and when I run Quicktime and ask it to look for updates, it says I'm up to date.
Any thoughts?

Did you ever figure this out? It is driving me insane.....

Quicktime software is out of date - NOT!

I saw this question answered for XP, but I have Windows Vista.
For years now, when I open itunes, quicktime or even the apple website, I get the following... 'Some of your QuickTime software is out of date. You can fix this problem by updating to the latest version'. The choices given are Cancel or Do It Now. If I select Cancel, it closes and things usually function normally, or it may ask me again several times (asked me four times on the way to this forum). If I select Do It Now, it says Information received from the QuickTime server is invalid. Try later. This course of action usually freezes things up.
There must be part of an old Quicktime version lurking that I need to seek out and destroy. Apple support recently (Nov 29, 2010) assisted with an uninstall and reinstall of the latest version of itunes and quicktime for another issue I was having. itunes wouldn't open. I had hoped that would fix this too, but it didn't.
How do I seek out and destroy the offending files? Thanks

There must be part of an old Quicktime version lurking that I need to seek out and destroy.
Indeed. Let's go checking in the most likely location.
1. Open My Computer from the desktop or Start menu.
2. In the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected, and the "Hide extensions for known file types" option is unchecked.
5. Click OK.
Now in My Computer, open your C drive.
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "system32" folder.
What files and/or folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the file/folder name? (In a standard installation of QuickTime, you should see precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

"some of your Quicktime software is out of date," And then the fun starts

I get the "out of date" message frequently. If I select "do it now", I am usually told "Info received from the QT server is invalid. Please try again later." Occasionally, I'll get a Dialogue Box listing five Quicktime components. If I select Update, I get a message informing me that I don't have authority from the Administrator (ME) and a more privileged user will have to update for me.
In addition, attempts to use Apple websites and ITunes result in crashes of Internet Explorer. I can navigate thru Safari, though, and my ITouch syncs OK.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled ITunes and Quicktime several times but the problems persist, I even get the "out of date" message during the install process. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

That sounds like there may be old misplaced QuickTime componentry lurking about in your system, Jack. Let's go looking for that.
1. From the Start menu, click Open.
2. In the Organize menu, click Folder and Search Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected, and the "Hide extensions for known file types" option is unchecked.
5. Click OK.
Now in Computer, open Local Disk C: or whichever drive your operating system is installed on.
Open the "Windows" folder.
*If you have a 32-bit Vista:* Open the "System32" folder.
*If you have a 64-bit Vista:* Open the "SysWOW64" folder.
What files or folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the file or folder name? (In a standard installation of QuickTime, you should see precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

Batch file rename. I have multiple files I want to rename, that have a date in their name in the mm/dd/yy format. The slashes seem to freak out the batch rename function. Any workarounds that would help me avoid manually changing each name?

OS X Yosemite 10.10.2, Macbook Air,
Finder batch file rename function. I have multiple files I want to rename, that have a date in their name in the mm/dd/yy format. The slashes seem to freak out the batch rename function and it won't work. I took out the slashes and worked fine. Any workarounds that would help me avoid manually changing each name? I should point out that I want to leave most of the name intact just change the first word in each name. Also the files I'm working with are in PDF format.

That's a comment in the file. It has no effect at all.
