Buffer Overrun Detected with Windows XP

I downloaded the latest version of Quicktime. It looks like everything installed correctly with Qickttime, but I get a "Buffer Overrun Detected!" error window when I try to open it, and it sometimes causes Firefox and/or Internet Explorer to crash. Any ideas?
I have tryed Uninstalling it then reinstalling it but that dosen't seem to help. I also have installed a buffershield but that dosen't seem to make a diffrence either.

Bumping, I am having the same issues; however, it is just even trying to open quicktime. I am now having issues with itunes due to this. I am not able to uninstall it either.
Any help would be appreciated.
TY!

  • Quicktime buffer overrun error with windows

    Hi
    I hope that some one out there can help me!!!! I have tried to install the new version of quicktime 7.4 but it won't install. And everytime that I try to open Quicktime player is gives me an error which reads:
    Buffer overrun detected!
    A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state. The program cannot safely continue exection and must now be terminated.
    I have tried to uninstall quicktime and reinstall it several times. I have also used recure to try and fix it. If anyone has any more suggestion other than going to the geek squad I would really appreciate it. I have been trying to fix this for a while. Oh, I did try to go back in the recovery too and that didn't work either.
    Thank YOU

    Search the forum and Apple's Support for "Quicktime" and "Buffer overrun" and follow the tips.

  • Quicktime problem "buffer overrun detected!"???

    sorry if thas has been posted a billion times recently, but i seriously am not that good with computers and can't seem to find a place for help with this. was hoping you guys here could at least point me in the right direction. Also, like i just said, I am not very handy when it comes to computers, so try to keep it plain and simple...
    with that being said, I have encountered this problem with quicktime recently, which in turn has caused itunes to not work either. i've tried searching for a fix for days now and have been unsecessful finding anything so far. I heard it has something to do with the new quicktime update not cooperating with some service pack update... im not sure
    I tried to delete quicktime but couldn't, now when i try to open quicktime... I get an error message reading :
    Microsoft Visual C++ runtime library
    Buffer overrun dtected!
    program C:\programfiles\quicktime\quicktimeplayer.exe
    A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated.
    thanks for any help in advance

    I had the exact problem, after I tried updating to the latest version of itune. Now my itune don't work. There are no graphics and no sound. When I open Quicktime it has the exact message "buffer overrun detected...The program cannot safely continue execution and must be terminated."
    I tried removing the quicktime program, restoring the computer to earlier dates, disabling my antivirus program first and downloading itunes on a disc and then updating the program. Nothing Works! I talked to a guy at apple support who said he's not allowed to help me since "quicktime is a free program" then referred me to article "302538" which says to disable some items using the System configuration Utility (msconfig) in windows XP. Tried it and it doesn't work either.
    Since this problem is happening to so many people, something is obviously wrong with the itune and quicktime program which is mandatory for my recently purchased $300 Ipod. I've already wasted countless hours trying to resolve this problem with very little support from Apple. Apple needs to address and fix this problem.
    Please let me know how to resolve this problem! Thank you!

  • Buffer Overrun Detected

    Hi
    Apologies of this has been asked before. When running an QT movie created in Flash CS3 I get the 'buffer overrun detected' error message. I am using a PC with Windows XP Home Edition SP2 - any help and advice would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Cant export in quicktime pro get buffer overrun detected

    cant export in quicktime pro progeam shuts down and a microsoft visual c++ runtime libary buffer overrun detected error pops up what is the fix for this??

    I do not know if this helps as my problem was specifically with picture viewer but I also was unable to run the quicktime updater. I removed quick time via the windows add/remove in control panel as I had done before. But this time I did a search for all quick time files and found over 50 files (I have 4 partitions and they were hiding in one of them). So I deleted them, did a defrag (using diskeeper 10) then downloaded the latest version of quick time. Now it works perfectly.

  • One reason for "Buffer overrun detected!"

    I got "Buffer overrun detected" problem as many others these two days. After searching all the old post and no solutions can be found yet. (Apple said they need to check with M$ cause the error message also contain "c++ runtime dll"
    Anyway, finally, I found it's because the binary file is damaged in my pc, and it is caused by virus "W32.Pinfi" (other name such as "Win32.Parite.B"), you can make a quick check in registry:
    HKEYCURRENTUSER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer
    if there is a "PINF" value under the above registry value, sure you can solve the problem by clean this virus from your PC.
    BTW: the cleaning is really a big job, make sure you can turn to some experts to clean it completely!

    Try following this link and downloading and installing the BufferShield software. There's a 30-day Free Trial Version available.
    http://www.sys-manage.com/english/products/products_BufferShield.html
    It worked for me! The Quicktime issue doesn't appear, to me, to be a virus at all at this time! Seems to be more of a Windows issue than anything. So use the software, sit back, and enjoy your Quicktime software, without the hassle of that pesky buffer overrun message!

  • QuickTime 7.1.2 - Buffer overrun detected!

    Hello again everyone.
    Recently I upgraded QuickTime Pro on my Windows XP Pro machine to QuickTime 7.1.2. using the iTunes 6.0.5 setup.
    Since the upgrade, whenever I go to open QuickTime from either the Task Bar, the Desktop ShortCut, The Program Menu or the C:/drive, it will not open and I get the following error message:
    Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
    Buffer overrun detected!
    Program:C:|Program Files\QuickTIme\QuickTimePlayer.exe
    A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the programs internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated (Asta La Vista baby)
    However if I double click on a QuickTime movie (.mov file) on my hard drive, it will open QuickTime. Very weird.I have tried uninstalling both QuickTime and iTunes, then reinstalling iTunes and QuickTime 7.1.2 with the stand alone installer but I still have this buffer problem which won't let me open QuickTime.
    Can anyone advise me on what the problem is and how to fix it?
    Regards,
    Justin

    That's my excact problem, only I don't have the pro version.

  • Buffer overrun detected in iTunes

    When I synchronise photos from my PC to my iPod (5G, 30Gb) I get most of the time the next Error-message in a window named: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtine Library.
    The text of the message is:
    'Buffer overrun detected. Program: C/Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exe.
    A buffer overrun has been detected wich can corrupt the program''s internal state. The program cannot safely continue and must now be terminated.'
    As a result of this Error-message the program iTunes is terminated and the photo's are not uploaded to my iPod.
    Is this problem familiar to you and you know the cause and hopefully a solution, I will appreciate if you will inform me about this. Many thanks.

    I had a very similar problem. I would get this error when trying to play mp4 videos in itunes. I fixed it by upgrading my motherboard chipset drivers.

  • Quicktime 7.2 - Buffer overrun detected!

    The quicktime player 7.2 often crashes down, when i play a quicktime panorama-movie. An error alert appears:
    Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library. Buffer overrun detected. Program: C:\Programme\Quicktime\QuicktimePlayer.exe. A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated.
    Firefox plugin falls exactly the same. With the last version 7.1.6.200 i had no problems like this one.
    The panorama-movie can be viewed at:
    http://mia-net.gotdns.org/bianca.html
    (the last one)
    or directly (attention, large file 7,05 MB):

    That's my excact problem, only I don't have the pro version.

  • "Quicktime Buffer Overrun Detected" When Updating Existing Software

    So the subject line basically says it all. Quicktime runs fine until I pull down the "help" menu and select "Update Existing Software" which immediately gives me a C++ error "Quicktime Buffer Overrun Detected." I've tried repairing Quicktime and it does the same thing still. I'm running v.1.3.7 and Windows XP.
    An interesting side note: When Quicktime is running my desktop flashes as though windows is refreshing it. Any idea what that's about?

    Bumped. A little help would be appreciated...

  • Buffer Overrun detected - Microsoft Visual  C++ Runtime Library

    My computer, an HP 3400+ with XP home edition has been running fine. I decided I want to watch movie trailers in HD from Yahoo Movies web site and it says I need to upgrade to Quicktime 7 in order to run it. Now it works fine on my laptop so I know it works. I click the "Download Quicktime 7 to view HD" button and go through the process. It goes fine. I reboot and try to run Quicktime and I get this message.
    "Buffer Overrun detected - Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library - Program Quicktime Player."
    On Explorer and Firefox it still has not recognized that I downloaded the new Quicktime 7.
    I am able to right click the Quicktime icon and go to the preference but I can't run the program. I even ran the install and did the repair button but no luck. I find no answers on the net.
    Any ideas?

    I did ... well it didn't get as complicated as there since in my case the QT installer worked and fixed the problem.

    Same situation here. I've formatted, tried qt alternative, just about everything. Streaming in works, playing from disk doesn't.
    sometimes i'll get a jitter on audio playback. Does support the raid issue.
    I read somewhere that MS has a patch available for an issue stemming out of DRM components of Vista causing slow disk access to some media files. You actually have to call them to get the patch.
    Some think the patch here:
