Can't Open Quick Time

Every time I attempt to open Quick Time I get a message that states it cannot find File Pthreadvc2.dll It suggests reinstalling the software. I have attempted that several time with no success. Does anyone know how to solve this?

So I downloaded an h264.mov. and when I click on it topen it it tells me
QuickTime Player can't open "Room Serviced_H.264.mov".  I click to tell me more and it takes me to an Apple page that tells me this below. But it doesn't give me a solution.

    Hello.  I have AV player hd.  When I touch and hold the Quicktime icon that is in a received mail message, a prompt comes up "Open in AVPlayerHD".  I click on that and a black screen opens up with the following on it:
    1--A red line at the top with a short white slider button on the right hand side.  There is a time listed at each end of the red line that says 00:00
    2--On the left hand side of the screen, near the middle, there are 4 icons, a colored 'x', a dialogue icon, a circular arrow and an 'i' in a circle.
    3--On the right hand side there is a + and a - sign with '1.00x' in the middle of the two.
    4--At the bottom of the black screen is a play icon plus forward and fast forward icons.
    When I press the play icon it changes to a stop icon.
    So, even though I have AV player I cannot play this Quicktime slideshow.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

  • Buffer Override and Can't uninstall Quick time

    I just upgraded to Quick Time Pro for $32.00 and can't get quick time or itunes to open. I tryed to uninstall Quick Time but it says error and can't uninstall. I get a Buffer Override when trying to open. I believe that I just got ripped off for $32.00. Apple must be short of money and ripping us off.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. See notes 1 & 3 below the box in particular, and include the ..\Program Files\QuickTime folder in the removal process.
    Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • How many times can I download Quick Time Pro once I purchased it?

    Last September I purched my update to Quick Time Pro. Now I bought a new Computer and re-formatted the old one, not being able to copy Quick Time Pro from the old to the new computer. Therefore I wanted to download again Quick Time Pro: In the settings window I introduced my program key and then "accepted". It said "Quick Time pro" below the registration line; however, the "apply" buttom was not operative. I checked and my Quick Time version was still "Quick Time 7", not Pro. My question is: how many times can I download Quick Time Pro once I purched it? If I can download it more often than once, how do I proceed? Thank you for your help.

    I started this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2454706&tstart=0
    but I'm afraid it's so involved that thus far, nobody has "touched" it.
    However, PART of my problem is similar to THIS person's.
    My problem is that I have QT on two different drives in one computer; the one I paid for [QT Pro?] and one I got for free; QT7. I fear the free QT7 might have "interfered" with my "Pro".
    So, taking your advice above, looking in the "Help" "About" menu, I find that BOTH of mine another "offer" above the word "About"; they suggest that I "Purchase QT Pro"...... so now, if BOTH of my QT's say THAT, then may I conclude that I do NOT have the Pro version? I'm meaning to say that if I already HAVE the Pro, they wouldn't suggest that I go and "Buy QT Pro".... right? Is this a safe conclusion? for ya'll that HAVE the Pro, and KNOW it, does it suggest to you that you could go and "purchase QT Pro"?
    Thanks,
    LarryR : )

    PS doesn't deal with compressed files that well. Try to convert it in an external tool like Quicktime Pro or one of the gigazillion free video converters based on ffmpeg....

  • How can we make quick time player play all formats like AVI, MKV, MPEG etc?

    How can we make quick time player play all formats like AVI, MKV, MPEG etc?

    QuickTime supports many different file types & codecs, but not all.   In many cases you can lookup, download & install specific codecs if you need them.
    The following may be helpful:

  • How can I open the 'time date browse button'?

    Hello!
    How can I open the 'time date browse dialog' from the time stamp control in my block diagram? I tryed it with the property node but couldn't find this item to open the 'time/date browse dialog'!
    Thanks in advance for your help

    There is no way to programitically bring up the dialog window for the timestamp control. I recommend building your own dialog window VI that will work by opening when you want the user to set the time and when it closes, it can programatically update the timestamp control. It will not be as pretty but it will be just as functional.

  • HT4534 Can't open  Face Time fully on my Mac Book Pro 13

    I can't open face time fully on my Mac Book Pro 13. Is there a way to set it up?

    You ran a defective third-party "utility" such as "CleanMyMac" or "MacCleanse" that purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system and many applications.   
    The first thing you need to do is remove that software according to the developer's instructions. Never install it, or anything like it, again. Then see below. If you use any iWork applications, you may need to delete them and redownload them from the App Store.
    If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
    If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
    *The linked support article refers to OS X 10.10 ("Yosemite"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

  • I cannot open Quick Time Player at all

    I am simply trying to open Quick Time Player to record a self video. I go to my Applications folder, click on Quick Time Player. It loads into the dock, I double click on the QTP icon, nothing happens. I right click on the QTP icon and get a mini menu of options that don't seem to apply to opening the program to include nothing in the Options (and there is not a selection of "SHOW" only Show All Windows which merely lists four movies I have on my hard drive. Any suggestions from anyone?  Keep it real simple please and assume nothing. I'm of the slide rule era, well before the 8086 days and grew up on the PC.  Thanks.

    Double-click the QuickTime Player and choose New Movie Recording from the File menu. The QuickTime Player will only have a window open when instructed to do so; the items in the menu bar will change when it's launched.

  • Cannot open Quick Time movies in iLife 11

    I got my first digitized Super8 films back on an external hard drive, 1 TB. They were converted to Quick Time movies 1280x720,
    Codecs: Component Y' CbCr 10bit 4:2:2 ( I have no idea what this all means). All I had asked was to get them in .mov files. Quick Time movies seems to be something different than .mov files.
    What can I do to open these Quick Time movies and to edit them in iLife 11?
    Would appreciate if somebody could help me .

    The information about the codec in Final Cut Express is at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3523
    I have a lot of old Super8 films and decided to get them digitized. After that I intend to discard the old analog films and keep two copies of these old Super8 movies on external hard drives. Therefore I am looking for the best possible quality at a reasonable price.
    The first batch last year was digitized to what they called uncompressed .mov files and could be easily imported and edited in imovie.
    For the second batch (another service) I decided to go HD in .mov files, again uncompressed (the HD quality 1280x720 seems to be remarkably better) What I got are these Quick Time movies that I cannot open in Quick Time and imovie does not let me import these Quick Time movies, whereas the uncompressed .mov files last year were a breeze to handle. What's the difference between 'uncompressed' .mov files vs. Quick Time 'uncompressed' that I cannot open in imovie.
    Now you are pointing out that FCE does not let me edit uncompressed QT files. How do I convert to .mov or MPEG Streamclip?
    Would I purchase Final Cut Express only to be able to open those movies in Quick Time?
    Feels like I am at the low end of the learning curve.
    Appreciate all help I can get for my project.

  • Its my first time to use mack book pro and i try to open quick timer and also i have problem in watching movies

    i have macbook pro and can not watch movie

    I'm afraid that what you are trying to open is the format that Quick Time doesn't support. You can install some plugin apps as mentioned above. Or just install some other 3rd party free media player to replace QT, such as Macgo free Mac media player, VLC.
    Notice:
    VLC does not support playback of commercial Blu-ray discs with copy protection. Those require decryption keys, which only a commercial player can provide.
