After installing version 7.5.5, all FLV files loose their QuickTime icon

Hi,
Just installed the new update for QuickTime, and noticed that an FLV file on my desktop lost it's QuickTime icon - and now has a VLC icon instead. However, the defaults are fine and it still opens in QuickTime perfectly.
Minor bug, but not nice.
How can it be solved?
Thanks,
Rudi

Yeah, you're right - though you can download something to append nice icons to files unknown to QuickTime. You'll also need Perian.
You can find it here: http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/25243
It's a nice little script that works on both Leopard and Tiger
It adds icons for AC3, A52, DIVX, FLV, MKA, MKV and VOB
Good luck

After installing version 5 upgrade to my Iphone 4 all the apps stopped working.

After installing version 5 upgrade to my Iphone 4 all the apps stopped working and I cannot reinstall them at the Appstore giving me a message that I have already purchased them. I can see all the apps, click on them, but none of them will open. How can I make them work again, since the Appstore will not allow me to reinstall the apps? The only apps that are working are the ones pre-installed by the upgrade.

Try downloading any free app using the App Store on the phone.

Please a simple problem but I don't know how to solve it. After installing 16 gb of ram all is good but when I turn on the computer it is a window signaling that all is correct. How is possible to delete once and for all that window? Thank you

Well then maybe you could take a screenshot because the appearance of such a window is news to me.
Also post your OS X version and what model Mac you have. The more detail, the better. Thanks.
To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse or trackpad. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.

My macbook pro crashed after installing maverick. I lost all my photos however the iPhone iPhoto app still has these photos so how can i access the package contents to recover these photos?

My macbook pro crashed after installing maverick. I lost all my photos however the iPhone iPhoto app still has these photos so how can i access the package contents to recover these photos?

We'll need to know more to beable to help. Do you want to try to restore your photos from your iPhone to your Mac, or try to recover the photos from the old iPhoto Library on your Mac?
What is the situation of your Mac now? In hat way did it crash? A hardware problem with the drive? Does the system not start properly? Does iPhoto not launch? Do you still have the iPhoto Library on your mac or a backup, so we could try to rescue the photos there?
What versions of iPhoto are on your iPhone and your Mac?
however the iPhone iPhoto app still has these photos so how can i access the package contents to recover these photos?
On the iPhone you cannot access the "package contents" - IOS hides the file system from the users. To restore photos from your phone share all iPhoto photos to your Camera Roll, that are not already in the Camera Roll, and then connect the iPhone via USB and import the Camera Roll to iPhoto or Image Capture. Or use any of the other sharing methods described on thos manual page: see: Ways to share photos http://help.apple.com/iphoto/iphone/2.0/?handbuch#blnk7d8f763e
To retrieve photos from a corruptrd iPhoto Library on your Mac we need to know the version number and more about the "crash" you experienced, the state of your mac, the system, the data. Please post back with more details.

On Windows 7, neither my quicktime or iTunes will start. This started after I installed the newest update. All the files that are needed are there. I recently updated Quicktime to see if that would work, but it didn't.

Help, please?

Safari shows "The network connection was lost" for all flv files on the internet. Firefox plays all

I upgraded to the lastest version of Flash to fix what I thought was a problem in Firefox. That problem turned out to be something else but now Safari will not play ANY flash content. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. I have even installed an older version. All of these have the exact same result. Flash works in Firefox but not in Safari. I have cleared the cache. I have gone into the flash securty settings and deleted all content. Nothing seems to change this. Anyone have any ideas?

Plug-Ins are installedand keep in mindthis problem affects all 3 browsers i am using IE9, Safari5 & Firefox 19NOT a SPECIFIC browser issuewhich is why i think it's either "Flash" (Adobe) or streaming web-site (Freedocast) issue.

I have a Macbook Air (july 2012) with OS X 10.8.3 installed. I have dvds with .vob files and have Quicktime Version 10.2 (603.12). I can't play the DVDs. There are some features of QT that I like, e.g. precise frame selection and save as .png file-help. Am I missing some Apple software? I thought QT for Mountain Lion could convert the .vob files - is there some setting that I have missed?
Any suggestions that preserves a simple workflow much appreciated.

After installing the latest of iTunes the original files for almost 300 songs cannot be found for syncing to my iPod. The files are songs that were bought from iTunes, and copied into iTunes from CDs.

Apparently, security programs like Macafee and Norton view Itunes updates as new programs and block then from access. If you add Itunes to the list of exemptions, it solves the problem.

After installing Version 5 I get an error message about incompatibility and min and max versions.

I shutdown Zone Alarm, and deleted the contents of the file, which contained the "exe" file, then reinstalled Firefox version 5.0. I still get the XUL Runner error message about incompatibility of Version 5.0 with min and max 5.0.1. What next?

The updater wasn't able to update all the files and some were left as older versions.<br />
You need to do a clean reinstall.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

After installing version 11.3.1, saying itunes has stopped working

Accepted update to version 11.3.1 this week and now can't get iTunes to work. It starts up, shows the interface and then promptly a message saying iTunes has stopped working is displayed by Windows X64 and it tries to search for a solution to the problem which it can't find. The iTunes was working fine until after this version 11.3.1. I've removed all Apple applications installed (bonjour, mobile support, Qtime, iTunes) and re-installed, but same problem. The iTunes application is broke for me and no resolution I've found on any forums has helped. It's permanently broken.

Hi Figaro56,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're seeing an issue where iTunes isn't responding or is quitting unexpectedly. The article linked below provides a lot of great troubleshooting tips that help you isolate and resolve the issue.

After installing version 3.6.12, i can not download files from websites

After installing the newest version of Firefox for my Powerbook G4, running OS X 10.4.11, I am having great difficulty getting any files to download. Any file that you click on and should download on its own will not. I can not right click and save as all of the time. Some of the sites I work on require you to click, and then print. This does not work. Please advise. Thank you.

How do you go about downloading an earlier version of Flash player? cy204

COM interface no longer working after installing version 7.6.2.9

I wrote a VB6 application a while back that has always worked fine for me. It referenced the COM interface (iTunesApp type library) of iTunes.exe to pause/play the music when a certain hotkey is pressed among other things. But after installing the new version of iTunes (7.6.2.9) it no longer works. It fails trying to create the iTunesLib.iTunesApp object. I don't remember the version number of iTunes that I had installed before that worked, but it I always keep it up to date, so it was the most recent one before this one. iTunes itself is running fine, but as far as I can tell, iTunes.exe no longer has a COM interface at all (you can't even register it with regsvr32 because it doesn't expose a DllRegisterServer routine).

OK, before you dive any more into the registry, a simple question. Did you try uninstalling iTunes, rebooting, and re-installing iTunes?
I do have an entry for 'iTunes.Application.1' (below). However, I'm sure there are many more registry entries related to iTunes. In other words, adding this entry will probably not be sufficient to restore the COM functionality.

I have had a real problem after installing ML. In mail my archive files were tripled (exact copies), then when I tried to remove one set of the archives, they all disappeared taking all of my files with them. Any comments which could be useful would good

I have had a real problkem after installing ML. The archives in my MAIL tripled (exact copiesof the original files) and when I tried to delete the extra ones, all of my files disappeared. Is there any way that I can get them back as I need them for business?

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Cannot access store after installing version 6

Folks,
Katrina has been kind enough to lead me through the basics of resolving my problem, and has referred me to this forum.
The issue
When I attempt to access the music store in version 6, the progress bar freezes at about 90% and there is no further action. If I end the program, an iTunes process remains resident using every available CPU cycle. I had no trouble accessing the store with my previous version of iTunes.
What I've done to diagnose/resolve
- un-installed iTunes/Quicktime and re-installed (reboot in between)
- un-installed just Quicktime and re-installed (reboot in between)
- disabled all firewalls, virus scanners and antispyware software both during install and when running iTunes
- used msconfig to disable processes and determined that with non-MS processes disabled this problem still occurs. The only processes running are alg, csrss, ctfmon, explorer, iTunes, lsass, services, smss, spoolsv, several instances of svchost, System, System Idle Process, qttask, taskmgr, vsmon (a ZoneAlarm process which cannot be stopped, but all ZoneAlarm functions were disabled), wdfmgr and winlogon.
- confirmed with my ISP that they do nothing to filter/screen any data and they have have no reported issues with iTunes
- my Internet connection works fine for all other functions, in and out of iTunes
Data
XP Pro SP2 patched to 2-Jan-2006
iTunes 6.0.1.3
high-speed (500k) cable Internet connection
Thanks in advance for ideas that may help.

Well, sounds like a network problem. I can get into
iTMS just dandy, so I don't suspect an iTunes server
problem.
That might depend on how the servers are organized, are they geographic? I'd be surprised if Canadian customers weren't routed to a different server.
Report it to your cable provider. If you can connect
sometimes, your PC and the software are set up OK.
I'd say there's nothing to report to my cable provider, many other Internet services are running fast and with no problems (various browsers, Skype, MSN). 55ms average ping to Apple.com. 53ms to Apple.ca and iTunes.ca. Connection to many other sites is fast.
The cNet bandwidth test reports 500.6 kBps, which is what my ISP has my connection throttled to.
But even when I can sign on to iTunes the site is painfully slow in response.
So I don't think there's any problem with my internet connection.
I forget if you told me your PC is malware free?
That's the only other thing I can think of.
I have a variety of security software, and the last full spyware scan was today. Hopefully I don't have hidden malware installed surreptitiously by a music CD from a disreputable music company. But I'm thinking by now my security software (NOD32, Spysweeper, MS Anti-spyware, ZoneAlarm) would have cleaned that out.
Good luck!
Thanks!
