Can't install QuickTime on Win 2000 PC
I've tried 3 times to complete the installation of Apple's QuickTime Player and iTunes on a Windows 2000 Pro SP4 PC. (They're bundled together in the download.) It started easily enough with the InstallShield Wizard starting up. It proceeded through designating the destination folder. Next a Window popped up saying "Please wait while Windows configures iTunes." Twenty minutes later that message was still there. That's when I gave up and clicked on Cancel. (Should I have waited longer?). Next an iTunes windows popped up saying "Cancelling. It stayed and stayed. I had to resort to Task Manager to get rid of it, which wasn't without some hitches.
I downloaded this package a second time and tried again with the same results.
I have no idea what is happening or why. Is the culprit Windows, iTunes, Apple, me or some combination of two or three?
I have installed and upgraded this software on a Windows XP Home Edition PC with no difficulty. I'd like to run QuickTime Player on this Win 2K machine. Does anyone have any idea of what to do next?
BTW I downloaded Quicktime 7 and tried to install it. I was told that QT 7 already was installed. I found a QuickTime folder in Program Files, but nothing was in it. I got a message saying that QT wasn't properly installed. I deleted the folder and tried again only to get the same message. Maybe there's something in the Registry or somewhere else. As long as it's there, I'm not going to be able to install QT 7, or so I figure. ???
I really don't know why it wouldn't show up under Add/Remove programs. When I had a similar problem, I had to remove/reboot/reinstall, but you don't even have the option to remove!! And you can't reinstall because there's already something there... have you tried doing a search for quicktime on your HD and deleting everything you found?

1. Cannot find JVM during installation
sol: I select java.exe from jdk directory manually

1. During installation, JVM cannot be located and I manually choose
java.exe at c:\jdk1.3.1_02\bin\java.exe
2. after installation, i execute Beanbox and problems arise
when I select makeApplet.
makeApplet process is not sucessfully and I receive the following error message.

"java.io.IOException: compilation failed!
while generating data for MyApplet"
b. DOS error message
"WARNING: Could not Runtime.exec<String> "javac" in the standard way: java.io.IOException: CreateProcess: javac -classpath tmp\myApplet\myApplet_files;classes;.;..\lib\methodtracer.jar:..\infobus.jar -nowarn tmp\myApplet_files\MyApplet.java error=2
Check that the version of "javac" that you are running is the one supplied with Sun's JDK1.x <which includes the compiler classes> and not some other version of "java" or JRE shipped with some other product."

Can we install JDeveloper (Window NT/2000) on Windows 98..??
Can we install JDeveloper (Window NT/2000) on Windows 98?
If not, is there a version available for Windows 98?
ThanksYes, you can. Just insert the linux CD in the CD-ROM drive and when asked about the internal hard disk, be careful not to touch it. Also you should use GRUB or LILO to make the system dual bootable. You can go to http://www.tldp.org and look for the corresponding document.

IWS Install Failed on Win 2000
Hello - we are still trying to recover our install of iWS on Win 2000. The
uninstall.exe hangs. Attemtps to reinstall hang. When we try to start the
iWS services in service manager they also hang.
We are installing from the Forte for Java partnership CD. This is iWS 6.0
Enterprise.
Please advise of the sequence of steps to erase all trace of the previous
installs (file directories, registry entries and anything else related) so
that we may reinstall iWS with a clean slate.
David Murphy
NetDirectHi,
Please ensure the following before you install.
- Have a fully qualified domainname which is mandatory. But for testing
purpose you can have DHCP running usually not recomended for production
environment.
- Installation platform for iWS 6.0 is Windows 2000 Server or Advanced
server recomended.
- If uninstallation hangs remove the entries from the services and remove
the associated folders and then go for reninstalling iWS 6.0
- If the problem still persists, the only way to get rid is to clean the
registry of Windows and make a reinstallation.
Regards
Raj

Can't run projector on Win 2000
Hi,
Does anyone know why I get a message about my projector not
being a valid
Win32 application when I try to run in Windows 2000? I'm
using Director MX
2004.
I think I heard about some fix, but can't remember it.
Thanks,
BrianHi.
Strange. The fact that you can't run as an Windows service tells me something may be
wrong with your os. Is it possible to try a different windows machine? This is not a
known issue - noone else is reporting this.

Can't install Quicktime 7.03
Other folks have posted similar problems, but I wanted to provide a little more detail.
I got a nano for xmas and promptly installed itunes. A couple of days ago I got prompted to install itunes 6.02 (?)
I downloaded and tried to install and got the message error -3 quicktime can't install.
Now when I try to run itunes, I'm told that it can't run without quicktime.
So here's what I've tried...
turned off my anti-virus software
installed the latest version of directx
dl'ed the stand alone installer of quicktime 7.03
removed quicktime from the registry
purchased registry mechanic, and let it go at the registry
searched for all files, hidden, system or otherwise, that had the words quicktime or qt in the filename. Deleted any that looked related to quicktime.
searched for all files that were created on the day I first installed itunes, deleted any that looked related to quicktime. (including all plugins)
rebooted the computer into safe mode
installed the stand alone quicktime
it almost finishes and then says...
1607 unable to install installshield scripting runtime
then it tells me that quicktime is installed and to click finish
when I run itunes it tells me that it requires quicktime and to try installing it
I'm pretty much out of ideas. I guess next I'll try deleting everything apple related from the registry and files, and try reinstalling from the disk in safe mode. (I've tried this once already...and got the error message that it couldn't uninstall quicktime).
thanks for any help...
Dell Windows XPThis worked for me...(someone else posted this answer)
Download the microsoft uninstaller at this link:

Can't install quicktimeor uninstall it for that matter and itunes I receive error code 2738 with both downloads. I'm running Window Vista with Service Pack 2. I have check for all window update. I have gone through Apple itune help list. Even going into cmd to do regsvr32 vbscript.dll which was successfull. Can you help...my son had to register his ipod at the neighbors house..What going on.
Son even call apple with no help and was give Microsoft number no help there either they wanted me to call HP.....run aroundExcellent news!
Strange how sometimes the fixit works better than the manual methods, and sometimes the manual methods work better than the fixit. It differs from Microsoft fixit to Microsoft fixit too. (Unfortunately, because these "anomalous 2738s" are pretty rare as install errors go, I don't have a good feel yet for whether or not it's the fixit or the manual method that's more likely to work in iTunes/QuickTime installation contexts.)
Afraid I'm not very good on earbud troubleshooting, but fingers crossed the folks over at the iPod communities might be able to help:

Whenever I try to install Quicktime (needed for itunes) I get the following error message:
QuickTime Installation Failed:
Error Code: -3
Can anyone help?
Thanks!I had the same problem, but I resolved it yesterday. Here's what I did.
1) Uninstall QuickTime from the Add/Remove Programs control panel.
2) Clean registry issues with http://www.ccleaner.com/ (freeware). Once installed just click on Applications and put a check mark next to Quick time. (don't skip this step, it is important)
3) Restart windows.
4) Turn off any anti-virus programs that are running.
5) Delete the Quick Time folder, In C:|Program Files
6) Reinstall QT from the standalone installer
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
I've used all these steps myself but now i get another problem when i install the standalone version of quicktime. I get Error 1402. -
A whille ago I uninstalled QuickTime because I didn't think i needed it, but then I learned that I need QuickTime to run Itunes. When I try to install QuickTime again, it goes through the installation but towards the end it has an error. It says there is a resource unavailable, and i need to designate a new path with the installation package 'Quicktime.msi'. I'm not sure what that means, and I don't know what the problem is. I uninstalled the last version straight from the control panel and im installing this one straight from this site. Can anyone help?
It says there is a resource unavailable, and i need to designate a new path with the installation package 'Quicktime.msi'
with that one, let's try the following procedure.
Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. then use it to clear any existing QuickTime installation configuration information from your PC:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
Next, we’ll manually remove leftover program files and folders.
1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
3. Open Program Files.
4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
7. Restart your computer.
now try another QuickTime reinstall. does it go through properly this time? -
Can't install itunes on Win 8 x 64
Ok,
Point 1) I downloaded itunes 11.1.0.126 - I do an install and all goes well until it rolls back and tells me there is an error.
Point 2) I read the FAQ's which say remove previously installed Apple software. I do that. Same problem.
Point 3) I do it all again, and remove Quicktime, and edit the registry to remove all references to the program, and other Apple programs.
Point 4) I install again. Same problem.
Point 5) I now try to re-install Quicktime Pro (my version is 7.74,bought and paid for!). It won't install either.
So, what is going on?
I am running Win 8 x 64bit. Before the update everything was working well. I tried to re-install the earlier version of itunes thinking that if there was an issue with the new version I could use the older version. No, it won't install either - same issue.
Any advice or assistance would be greatly appreciated as Apple Support don't seem to be interested.
ThanksNo longer an issue since I upgraded to Windows 7.

Can't install Quicktime - Error "A newer version of quicktime already..."
Hi, I have a Dell XPS running Windows Xp Media edition. Quicktime files would not play so I downloaded the newest version of Quicktime and an error comes up saying, "A newer version of quicktime is already installed. This installation of Quicktime can not proceed while the newer version is installed." I can't find a newer version on the computer and the application seems absent. Only suplimentary Quicktime files are found. Please help.
Thanks,
Eric
Dell XPS Windows XPI'm having this exact same problem. I have a Gateway running Windows XP Media Edition.
I can't run quicktime, it says it's not there. I've tried uninstalling using add/remove and it says the uninstall.log file is missing. I tried uninstalling using the QT uninstaller option in its folder, it says the uninstall.log is not there. I tried 'repair' option on the iTunes+QT installer that I downloaded. Still the same issue.
I tried the stand alone QuickTime installer and it tells me "A newer version of quicktime already exists".
I tried deleting the residual quicktime folders from my c:\program files. I tried deleting the residual QT references from my regedit. I downloaded the MS Windows Install Clean Up and looked in there--found 2 more things that could possibly be quicktime related and removed those. I tried again -- same error message.
I'm not sure what else to do. I'd really like to get Quicktime and iTunes working by Christmas so I can sync my shiney new iPod. -
Can't install Quicktime 7 as won't uninstall Quicktime 6.5
Hi
Trying to install i-tunes with the new version of quicktime but when it tries to uninstall my current version of quicktime (6.5) the following message appears:
Could not open key:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\windows\current version\uninstall\quicktime. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
How can i uninstall quicktime 6.5 & install the new version? What is a HKEY?
i have contacted both itunes support and pcworld support to no avail. Can anyone HELP, PLEASE!!!
ThanksI spoke too soon on that one. Tried everything listed in the certificate to no avail.
6.5 version never did work on that PC. XP SP2, nothing special.
It cannot go on line either. Lightning made sure of that.
I deleted any version trace of it on the PC, Then several attempts of getting the right version for XP.
Download it to a memory card on This Apple Laptop.
Then over to the PC to install.
After the 3rd try with finally the correct version of 7.1.6, we have success.
A bit tough to find a version that worked. You don't know until the version is tried.
There was no direct path searching for 6.5 of what it had and to what came next.
No Guru God here.
Just trying different sockets from the mixed up tray of choices to set the record straight. -
[TV@Plus] Can't install drivers in win XP pro sp2
I can't install the drivers of that tv@nywhere plus. I tried it on different computers = same results. Tried the msi driver on web site = same results.
