Accidentally uninstalled QuickTime, Itunes wont work

I accidentally uninstalled Quick Time and now Itunes will not work. I tried re-installing Itunes and quick time but I would get an error saying old version of quick time could not be removed. I read a guide that said to remove itunes and I did and then says to remove quicktime when I try to remove quick time from program files it says: cannot delete QuickTimecheck.ocx it is being used by another person or program, please close any programs that may be using that program and try again. All I have open is this web page open and the program files containing Quicktime, Does anyone have any idea of how to fix this?

QuickTimecheck.ocx
That's a web browser plug-in, so I'd try closing your web browsers too. If you still can't remove the folder, restart the PC, don't open any applications whatsoever, and then try the deletion again.
If still no luck, post back and let us know if you're still getting the same error message when you're doing the deletion, or if you're getting a different error message now.

  • ITunes wont work because of DEP

    My itunes wont work because of DEP closing it. I have tried unistalling my quicktime and unistalling my itunes and reinstalling them but it still wont work. i have followed a couple of discussions but  it still wont work. Can someone help me please.

    many thanks. That's got another possibility ruled out.
    Checking again. When you did your iTunes reinstall, was it a complete iTunes uninstall/reinstall as per the instructions from the following documents?

  • Itunes wont work anymore...error 7

    My itunes wont work anymore on my latop, i uninstalled it and reinstalled it but when i try to get in to my itunes and error 7 message will pop up saying that it was installed incorrectly and ive installed it several times to find the same thing happening. I dont know what to do anymore so if someone could help me out i would really appreciate it a lot!!!

    I got an upgrade iTunes request from Apple. And upgraded. I should never have done that. Now it says that "iTunes is not properly installed". Other strange messages are also coming up, like missing .dll files etc.
    I have deleted all Apple programs. Used Revo Uninstall that also deletes registry files and left over files. I have used ByeiTunes and Registry mechanic. I have used everything that is suggested on this site:
    http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/23959/completely-remove-itunes-and-other-apple-so ftware-from-a-windows-computer/
    After doing all this, I got the same error message. So what wrong with Apple? When you have bought the product, you are left out in the dark. I have given up. Synchronizing the calendar with Outlook I can do manually, pictures that I have downloaded to my phone, I can access directly, and pictures taken by the phone I have to send to myself through e-mail. Music I never download using iTunes.
    I have had enough. After this and after Apple has changed the plug that leaves me with 8 useless chargers and stands, there will be Samsung next time. I'm running Windows 7, 64 bits.
    Hans (Professor of Marketingy). I wonder if Apple is reading this?

  • Fast Start Quicktime Movies Wont Work

    I dont know why Fast Start Quicktime movies wont work in iWeb. This exact same file I used in a site I created using Dreamweaver began the movie as soon as it reached a point where the entire movie could be viewed. Why not in iWeb?
    http://catchthemoment.net/simpsons/simpsons/Valentines.html
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    For whatever reason, iWeb publishes the quicktime movies with the autostart attribute at "false". To enable autostart, you will need to edit the html file after publishing and set the autostart attribute to "true". Even though autostart may have been enabled within the movie encoding process ("in the file"), I believe that this property is allowed to be overridden by the html attributes within which the file is published.
    There is a table of all the attributes that can be changed floating around here somewhere. Keep in mind that these post-publishing changes that you might make will be overwritten in any subsequent changes that you might make to the page within iWeb.

  • Help!! Accidentally Uninstalled Quicktime 10.1

    HELP!!! I accidentally uninstalled Quicktime 10.1 on Mac OS X Lion. Please help me reinstall it!!!

    Quicktime X is a great little piece of software. However, Quicktime X is very finicky on which codec/file format it can decode/play.
    Luckily, there are DOZENS of alternative video/media players and extensions available for the Mac. Some of them are even FREE. Some of the better FREE ones include...

  • Itunes wont work because of quicktime or something?

    ok

    from then on
    now it wont open because it says i need a high version of quicktime. it says i have quicktime 6.5 i and i need 7.0
    however
    everytime i try to download quicktime 7.0
    it still doesnt open
    what am i doin wrong?

    hi Connie!
    how do u kno if u have a k lite mega code pack?
    hmm. i think it's something you need to install, so if you don't know you have it, you probably don't have it.
    let's try this again, using a QT 7.0.3 standalone installer this time.
    first use the QT part of the uninstall instructions given here to get rid of that existing QT you have:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
    after you do that, download the Windows Installer Cleanup utility and use it to check if you still have an entry for Quicktime. if so, remove it:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
    then download the standalone QT 7.0.3. save it to your hard drive (we'll run the installation from there rather than online). again, switch off any antivirus and antispyware prior to the install:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
    reboot after that install. will itunes run properly now?

  • DELETED QUICKTIME AND NOW iTUNES wont work

    I recently had to delete quicktime to install other software for my cell phone. After completeing the download and deciding it unworthy of my attention. I wanted to put quicktime back on. when i go to download the software back on the the computer it says: [quote]The plugin did not initialize properly[/quote]
    Also when i click the short-cut for iTunes this pops up:
    [quote]iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.[/quote]
    I've contacted customer service and they instructed me to delete iTunes and Quicktime and re-download them. I still cannot access iTunes.
    thankya kindly,
    ~$tudmuffin002100

    Here's what worked for other users; perhaps it will work for you (I've never had this problem so I can't say for sure):
    1) Uninstall QuickTime from the Add/Remove Programs control panel. If you have difficulties, try Microsoft's Installer Cleanup Utility.
    2) Clean up the Windows registry with http://www.ccleaner.com/ (freeware)
    3) Restart your system.
    4) Delete the QuickTime folder
    5) Reinstall QT from the standalone installer.
    Hope this helps.

  • I accidentally uninstalled QuickTime, and now iTunes won't open.What do i do?

    I was uninstalling some programs on my laptop since it has too much. I uninstalled QuickTime, not knowing it was needed to open iTunes. So, now, I downloaded QuickTime so that i can reinstall it. However, it said that it's "not a valid Win32 application." Before that, I tried to open my iTunes, but it said that it needed to be uninstalled and reinstalled. So, i did just that. I saw an old itunes setup in one of my folders. However, it was an old version, so it won't open. So now, as i'm typing this, i'm downloading the latest itunes in hopes of getting it right. What should i do? Can anyone help me?

    You can install it again from mac OS dvd, there's a folder named "optional installs" or "additional installs"with a installer in there, simply pen that installer and select from the list  QuickTime and that's all

  • ITunes wont work now

    Yesterday I downloaded the latest iTunes and then when I went to use it today it wont open and I keep getting a message that says 'iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration'. I haven't changed any of the settings on my computer so I dont know why it is saying this. I uninstalled my ipod and iTunes and re-installed them but it still wont work. Can anyone please help me.

    The audio configuration problem is usually a Quicktime issue, see:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304424
    For more general information about launch problems and the new version of iTunes see:

  • The new itunes update will not install properly and now itunes wont work at all

    k, so I tried installing the new update for itunes and now it wont work at all. it says that the mobile device isnt installed. i have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes 4 times now.

    My issue is it wont even reinstall onto my computer
    Yes I'm aware of that. The procedures are also for trying in cases where iTunes can't be reinstalled due to a "Could not start Apple Mobile Device service" message.
    If you're getting a different error message relating to the Apple Mobile Device Service (or Apple Mobile Device Support) when you try to reinstall iTunes, post back to let us know what that error message says. (Precise text, please.)
