After Effects says Quicktime Not installed

My computer setup:
Macbook Pro Retina i7
16gb RAM
OSX 10.9.4
So, I've gone through all of the various ideas on this page and the pages it links to and the pages those pages link to as well! But no luck... After Effects CC 12.2.1 works fine, the dynamic link manager and the QTServer32 both run and everything is great. If I try to open After Effects CC 13.0.2 it hangs on initializing the media core, and then after a few minutes finally opens, but gives me the warning that Quicktime is Not installed and obviously I can't do anything useful with After Effects. Acitivity monitor shows that dynamic link manager and QTServer32 are not running. I turned off my firewall, and I've gone through all of the various solutions (removing import/export codecs, fixing permissions, etc.) carefully and throughly. Last night I reinstalled AE 13.0.2 after using the Adobe uninstaller with "remove preferences" checked. But this morning, same problem. Any ideas? It seems like a common problem with a myriad of solutions but none of them seem to fix my problem...

You say that you "fixed permissions", but are you absolutely certain that you made the entire Adobe preferences folder and all of its contents readable and writable? Mac OS setting items in that folder to read-only is by far the most common cause of the problems that you describe.

  • After Effects Mavericks QuickTime not available

    Hello.
    I have the following problem. I have OSX 10.9.1 Mavericks. I use After Effects CC. I want to render a video as MOV (QuickTime). I go to the Render Queue -> Output Mode -> format not the opportunity to select MOV. It just is not there. QuickTime is installed on Mavericks as default all codecs would be theoretically available. What am I doing wrong?
    When I try to render the video in Media Encoder CC I have the opportunity to select MOV (QuickTime). When I render it I get an unknown error.
    THANKS

    Hey Szalam
    I use the following version of After Effects CC (12.2). I have solved the problem. I uninstalled After Effects CC and installed it again. Now I have the missing format (MOV). My After Effects has always been on the most current version. Why a new installation has helped I can not understand. But it works now and I'm happy
    Thanks

  • After Effects cc will not install correctly?

I have done that and it says the same thing. I am running a Imac on 10.8.4. Please help I would like to use the software that I just paid for.......

  • After effects cs5 will not install on my pc!!

    When it ended, there was a message stating that stated that After Effects wasnt installed properly.
    I ran another install and the same thing. only this time it came up with "Exit code 6", ant i scrolled down adnd it said that, in simple terms, the installation failed because the language pack coulnt be installed. It said this was because it "couldn't create extract assets from" my zip file.
    I dont know what to do.
    I have heard, however,  that pcs with some of my specs don't work with this.

  • Quicktime not installed error message upon installation of Itunes

    HI,
    I have Quicktime already installed (7.7 1680.34) and I have Itunes (10.4.0.80).  Now when I seek to update to the latest Itunes I receive an error message saying 'Quicktime not installed' and then it stops the installation.  Same thing happens after reinstallation of Quicktime.  -What to do now?
    //J Sundberg

    Try removing QuickTime from Control Panel before installing iTunes 10.4.1.
    Check out this Apple document, if you need a walkthrough of uninstalling from Control Panel -> Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Make sure you read the detailed steps, if you run in to a problem.

  • System tells me quicktime not installed when trying to update to CC

    updating to CC; takes a long time then I get an alert to say quicktime not installed, so some features will not be available. If I click to continue, I notice I do not have H264 compression available as a render option, (don't know if this is related!) I'm on Mac 10.8.4  - Quicktime player is installed cheers Alistair

    You are seeing two unrelated things.
    First, about H.264, see this:

  • Quicktime not installed than Media Core crash

    I am attempting to start up After Effects CS6 and shortly after it starts loading support files a dialogue box appears saying: "QuickTime is not installed on this system, some components will not work correctly." And I forced to click ok.
    THEN, shortly after that a windows dialogue box appears saying "Adobe Media Core CS6 has stopped working" Where I am forced to cancel, and another box asking if I want to send the information. Here is the details on the information box:
    Files that help describe the problem:

    After I close out of these boxes after effects starts fine, I just am restricted from rendering in MOV format.
    Using Windows 7 64 bit.
    I have reinstalled both After Effects and QuickTime, as well as put the QTCF.dll fill in support files and exit my antivirus software (both suggestions in other threads) to no avail.
    Please help me figure out what the issue is.

    Read it and al lthe stuff linked from there. Conversely, your crash is most likely a grphics acceleration issue and you can find plenty of info on that on my site, too.

  • "QuickTime not installed" error

    Apple support said the forums or Microsoft support is the best bet to figure out my issue.
    I receive an error when attempting to run iTunes 7.3 after installing. The error is "QuickTime not installed, please reinstall iTunes".
    I have done the following:
    - reinstalled iTunes several times (including using the exact steps from here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93698)
    - run the Windows installer cleanup (from here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301)
    - verified my computer is running 32-bit and not 64-bit windows (here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827218). I am running Windows XP Pro 2002 SP 2.
    - used registry cleaners CCleaner and RegCure
    - Attempted to install QuickTime standalone version, which gives me the vague message "The installer encountered errors before the requested operations for QuickTime could be completed". This is where Apple support says the problem is with XP, which I do not doubt, but is still difficult to troubleshoot.
    - deleted iTunes/QuickTime/Apple registry entries in
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE/SOFTWARE
    HKEYCURRENTUSER/Software
    HKEYCLASSESROOT/Applications
    HKEYCLASSESROOT
    - successfully installed QuickTime 6.5.2. Reinstalled iTunes. When running iTunes with this old version of QuickTime, I receive a message saying to reinstall iTunes. After reinstalling iTunes, I receive the same message.
    I seem to be stuck in some infinite loops, and stumped Apple. This could very well be a Microsoft problem, and I have my iPhone working with my home laptop, but I don't think the Apple support suggestion of contacting Microsoft will work. I work in tech consulting, so I know that a vague error message to the effect of "encountered errors, try again later" will not be very helpful (to either Apple or Microsoft really - though the apple software is the one that isn't giving me any helpful message, as opposed to a windows error message).
    Any help is much appreciated.

    I may have made some progress on this issue.
    I have installed an old version of QuickTime (6.5.2) that works successfully. However, when I try to use the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility to uninstall it, QuickTime does not appear in the list.
    Any other software I have successfully installed appears on this list (in addition to the Add/Remove Programs list), including the version of iTunes that does not work. So for whatever reason, QuickTime is not registered as installed on my computer, which I beleive is causing the problems.

  • What "Components" of After Effects require QuickTime?

    I get the message "quicktime is not installed on this system some components will not work correctly" whenever I startup After Effects.  It is true that I do not have QuickTime installed on this system, but I do have several questions.  (This isn't any type of error, I just want to know what QuickTime does):
    What "Components" of After Effects require QuickTime?
    What version of QuickTime do you recommend that I should install for the best performance?  I've heard that there are a bunch of different kinds and I don't know what Adobe After Effects uses specifically.

    After Effects uses QuickTime for importing and exporting several kinds of QuickTime movies (.mov files).
    Install the most recent version of QuickTime 7.

  • When I click on iTunes it says QuickTime not found

    After I got a movie file from a friend (and a player), everytime I tried going on iTunes it would say "QuickTime not found. QuickTime is required to run iTunes. Please reinstall iTunes."
    So I uninstalled iTunes and redownloaded the set up and installed iTunes. It's still saying the same thing. What is wrong?

    It might be worth trying a complete removal of iTunes and Quicktime followed by a phased reinstall.
    Download a fresh copy of iTunes and also the version of QUicktime that does not include iTunes (it is not the defualt option):
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Use the following method to remove iTunes and QUicktime etc:
    XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Vista
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    Restart your computer.
    Install Quicktime and check to see it works.
    If it does, install iTunes.

  • "Quicktime not installed on this system" message when starting up AE CC 2014 for the first time...

    I'm on a Mac Pro OS 10.9.3.

  • After Effects error: Could not launch Adobe Analysis Server (515)   ( 25 :: 101)  *POSSIBLE FIX*

    Hi. Im New to the forums so sorry in advance if i do something incorrect
    Since my Purchase of Adobe CS6, I was not able to use dynamic link, or the plugins that required you to connect to the Adobe Analysis Server (3d Tracker, Warp Stablizer ETC) It would always give me the error
    After Effects error: Could not launch Adobe Analysis Server (515)
    ( 25 :: 101)
    Or if i would use dynamiclink
    The Importer created a generic error
    Through hours and hours searching through the internet, and trying possible fixes, i found possible fixes that might help people with this error.
    *Before attempting any of these fixes, make sure you reinstall CS6 Using the Adobe Cleaner*
    This guide is for Windows OS Only.
    If the error still presists, try these options
    -If your windows account is not a administrator, Run Adobe After Affects CS6 As Administrator
    -Disable your Anti-Virus and your Firewall
    I know you have probably heard this over and over again, but this is mainly the cause of the problem. Some Anti-Viruses even when disabled, go into some sort of one eyed open mode, where it still monitors your computer ever so slightly, so you may want to uninstall the anti-virus. As for the firewall,
    1) Go to your start menu search "Check Firewall Status"
    2)Then to the left of the window, click Turn Windows Firewall on or off
    3)Then tick "Turn of Windows Firewall" on BOTH Home or work network and Public Network.
    -Close and Uninstall filtering and spyware programs such as Netnanny and Premiere Opinion. This might be using the TCP Ports that is needed for After effects, dynamic link and adobe analysis server to communicate
    -Start up Adobe Analysis server Manually. This can be done by going to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CS6\Support Files and running Adobe Analysis server.exe as Adminisrator, Then starting Premiere, After effects, etc.
    -If the Adobe Cleaner didnt already, Clean your registry. This can be done with free applications such as CCleaner.
    If none of those options work,  I would suggest a full format and reinstall of windows.
    I hope this would help people with this issue.

    I'm running the latest version. Just installed yesterday.
    You can download and install the latest version (and older versions) of versions 11, 12, and 13 from Adobe right now. That is why I was asking for the exact version number with decimals. Just the other day, someone said they were running the latest version and they weren't aware that CC was even a thing. They were running version 11.0.3 (which isn't even the latest version of CS6 - it's 11.0.4). That's why I always ask.

    I'm on a Mac so I don't have anti-malware, or other security software running.
    That doesn't seem like a good idea. While there can't be anything technically referred to as a "virus" on the Mac OS (due to the underlying structure), there can be (and are) malware variants out there that do attack machines running the Mac OS. As Apple products have grown in popularity, developers have been creating more and more malware aimed at OSX.
    I certainly hope you at least have your firewall running.
    captain_astronaut wrote:
    I tried launching Premiere yesterday and it crashed.
    This points to a much more serious underlying problem. Thousands (if not millions) of people are running Premiere and After Effects on Macs. What sort of error messages did you receive when it crashed?
    Try installing version 12 of AE and the previous version of Premiere as well and see if they run.
