Can't remove, update or re-install quicktime

I recently had video problems and using the typical check uninstalled the most recent thing before the trouble which happened to be the iTunes version of Quicktime. I uninstalled the iTunes version and tried putting the stand alone back on, said newer version was still installed. In Add/Remove programs I uninstalled iTunes, Quicktime, and the Apple Updater, deleted any directory connected to the programs and ran a file search to make sure i got them all. Still claimed it was installed. (I did the uninstalling from safemode) I even ran regvac to try and clean away any lingering reg keys about the programs and yet still claimed newest version is installed. So, I cant restore a previous version of quicktime, and now I can't re-install the iTunes version for some reason. It installs fine but then it'll fatal error when trying to run a mov file.
I even tried going thru the registry with regedit to delete any referrence to apple, quicktime and itunes, but after 5 minutes of just deleting quicktime referrences with no end in sight, i gave up.

Uninstall Itunes and Quicktime from Add/Remove Programmes.Then go to Start/Search and enter quicktime.
this will search out all the files and folders, delete all you can then try to reinstall Itunes with Quicktime. It worked for me.

How can I remove updates from my I-pad

How can I remove updates from my I pad

What updates ?
If you mean from the Updates tab in the App Store app then you can't - any updates that you've downloaded will disappear off that last in 30 days. If you don't want to install an app update then as far as I know they can't be removed from the Updates tab.
If you want to got back to a previous version of an app then do you have a copy of that previous version anywhere ? If you do then you can delete the app from your iPad (which will also delete its content) and sync back the previous version.
If you mean an iOS update that you've installed then you can't, downgrading the iOS version isn't supported by Apple.

How can I remove updated apps on app store page after they are updated and say open?

HOW CAN I REMOVE UPDATED APPS FROM UPDATE PAGE ON IPAD3 IOS7 AFTER THEY ARE UPDATED AND SAY OPEN?

You don't.
Apple has instituted auto updating , this is a feature for users to check what has updated recently.
The open button opens the app.
It will keep a rolling list, about 20-3O days back.

Can't remove locked VPN Connections installed by HotSpot Shield

How can I remove locked VPN connections under Network? (OS 10.9.5)
HotSpot Shield installed three VPN connections under Network settings. I no longer subscribe to the service and have removed the application, but I'm unable to remove the network connections.
Three VPN connections were created:
"US Server"   utahmaps.us
"GB Server"   jacketmagazine.us
"JP Server"    brainphotos.us
However, all these connections have the padlocked icon beside them, and I don't have the permissions to delete them.
I'm including a screen capture of one of the settings, for reference.
I can set them to inactive, but would like to remove them altogether.
Can anyone offer any assistance?
Thanks

I have been looking for this answer also... I found it yesterday. if you go to profiles in system preferences, you will be able to delete those completely.

Can i update Itunes WITHOUT installing Quicktime?

Is it possible to download an Itunes update without downloading Quick time or are they inseparably bundled?

I don't need QT. I don't use it.
If you're going to use iTunes, you DO need it. iTunes requires Quicktime in order to function.

How can I delete updates ready to install?

I regularly download software outside of the Mac App Store. I now have an item "Angry Birds" available as an update in my App Store list. I don't have Angry Birds. I've never played Angry Birds (would you believe). I've never downloaded Angry Birds. I also don't know what I downloaded that's triggered this. Trick is, I can't install this update either as my user name and the user name for the update don't match.
This is quite frustrating. How can I delete this from my update list?
Thanks

Can I remove PSE 7 after installing PSE 10?

Will removing a previous version of PSE (version 7) cause any problems with my recent installation of PSE 10?

If you have bought the full version of PSE 10 then there is no need to keep PSE 7 on your computer. If you have bought an upgrade to PSE 10 from PSE 7 then you will not need PSE 7 on your computer but from an installation perspective you will need the SN for PSE 7(and if PSE 7 is an upgrade then the previous qualifying version SN's also).
Remember to take a backup of your catalogs and de activate the software before unistalling PSE 7(if you do decide to unistall it).

Can't remove Gimp drivers to install new Epson driver

I just bought a new Photo printer (Epson Stylus Photo R1800.)
I go to add the printer in the Printer Setup Utility
click Add (The printer appears in the Printer Browser)
I select it; Then it wants me to select the driver from the list in the "Print Using" drop down.
The driver doesn't appear on the list.
I get a ESPON list but only the Gimp list.
ESPON tech support said these 'old' drivers may be conflicting with the new one.
SO, I try to delete old drivers. I delete ESPON folder from Library>Printers. RESTART.
EPSON - Gimp still there.
SO, I also delete Gimp.pkg from Library>Receipts. RESTART
EPSON - Gimp still there.
How do I get rid of these Gimp Epson drivers so I have a chance of loading the new drivers?
I have loaded the driver from the Epson CD 5 times and it doesn't show up anywhere.
Any hints?

Shows you how much the Epson Tech Support people know...........
There is no conflict. You ADD using a different method - After clicking ADD, don't immediately accept the printer when it appears in the browser - instead, click More Printers, then select Epson USB or Epson Firewire, then select Format for: All. Now you are using the Epson driver instead of the Gimp-Print one. Deleting the Gimp-Print drivers won't change this procedure.

Can't open updated version of iTunes (7.6)

When i opened my iTunes, it told me i needed to upgrade to the newer version of iTunes to play my an album that i pre-ordered. So i did, but when i tried to open it, an error message popped up...something about an error with Quicktime.
I tried re-installing iTunes all over again, but the same message came up. So i deleted Quicktime from my computer, but left iTunes, & then installed Quicktime.
My Quicktime works, i can play videos using Quicktime, but i can't open iTunes.
Re-installing Quicktime doesn't work & re-installing iTunes doesn't work. What else can i do???? This happened the last time i updated too, so i am pretty ****** off. Any suggestions??????

I was having a similar problem and searched this forum for 2 days trying to find the solution...and couldn't!
I decided to solve try a few things myself.
I turned the SpyWare off first then . . .
1 . I opened the Register Editor, by typing in "Regedit" in the run application for XP or start search for Vista.
2 . I searched all of the files, around six of them, and deleted ALL quicktime and itunes folders.
3 . I then went into the Program Files on the hard drive C:\ and deleted the files iPod, iTunes and QuickTime.
4 . After that I went back to C:\ and went into Windows and deleted a file named QuickTime VR and all other QuickTime and iTunes files.
5 . Restarted the computer
6 . Reinstalled ONLY QuickTime 7.4 from the website
7 . Reinstalled iTunes 7.6 from the website and it worked!
Hope this works, it was a nightmare to figure out and a hassle to do but it does work....for me at least!
Good Luck!

Welcome to the Apple community Pavinee Supajilt.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

HT1338 Desire to install "OS X Combo Update" so I can install QuickTime 7 to Mountain Lion

Desire to install "OS X Combo Update"so I can install Quick Time 7.
Thanks. Roger

There's something I don't understand. First, open  > About this Mac, and tell me what you see next to Version. If it's 10.8.4, you have the latest version, so you don't have to reinstall 10.8.4.
What problem have you got installing QuickTime 7? Have you followed the steps of this page? > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3678

Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour and QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

HT201068 In the Ap Store "Updates" window, it says that "Remote Desktop Client Update" was installed today. I never intentionally installed "Remote Desktop". How did it get there, Where is it on my computer, and How can I remove it? Thank You!

I don't know if you have been there, but a very suspicious icon! (Like this one on a NSA satellite: http://b-i.forbesimg.com/kashmirhill/files/2013/12/Satellite-logo-for-spying.jpg) Yikes!
Are they after the French too?!? I thought we were allies?!? Wait a minute . . . I'm an American citizen with the Constitutional Right (which they vowed to uphold when they took their job!) of privacy!!!
What do you think of all this?
How did you find it in the OS?
Do I just trash it with "Secure Empty"?
