Cant install quicktime

Hi there..
i bought myself a new mac book pro and deinstalled quicktime.. why is not so important..
stupid thing to do because i tried to install quicktime with the downloaded quicktime for leopard 7.5 and it says this "software is not meant for this machine"??
same with quicktime for tiger... ok.. in this case its true..
how can i install quicktime again without having to reinstall the whole mac osx package...?
thanks in advance..

QuickTime is a system component and can only be installed from the OS install.
I don't know what you may have removed but the only option to having a functioning OS is to re-install the OS from its DVD installer.

I cant install quicktime 7 because quicktime x is already installed

I cant install quicktime 7 because quicktime x is already installed

I tried it. It stil didn't work. It said. You may have installed Mac OS X software that is older than your current version of Mac OS X, and may not work properly. To ensure the best experience please download and install the latest version of the Mac OS X Combo update from http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/ . You should do this even if you currently have the latest Mac OS X update installed.
The file is a 1Gig file mac OS X 10.6.8 update combo, I will try doing what is say but I doubt it will fix the probem, because I already checked for and install the latest updates.

Cant install quicktime error message as below

I tried reinstlling Quicktime on my computer from the apple website like before but i get a error message saying i have a higher version installed and i should remove it before i install it again. I have checked and there is only one file left " QTplugin.ocx " and it wont let me delete it.

Open the Folder Options control panel, click on the View tab and uncheck [Use simple file sharing Recommended] This will give you a Security button for permissions.
Right click on QTPlugin ocx go to Properties and click on the Security button. Click on Advanced, click on Owner. Under, Current owner of this item: It will show Administrator. Under, Change owner to: It will also show Administrator and another entree below that for a user, click on that one and Apply to give it Full Control.

Cant install new i tunes, cant uninstall old i tunes

after upgrading to itunes 9.1 in the usual manner it froze and slowed computer down.
Decided to uninstall and re-install afresh but wont let me uninstall old itunes and i get an message saying 'the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable?'
so no itunes as if i try to install it i get messages saying it can't remove old components(bonjour etc) and then says it cant install quicktime.finish!

I have tried installing quicktime on it's own but it tells me that at cannot remove the old version of quicktime and to contact technical support. It does this when i try to install itunes and seems to be unable to uninstall older versions.
I have tried removing the itunes files in program files.
If you try to uninstall it tells me it cant find itunes msi and to try to find the installation package itunes msi in a folder in which you can install the product i tunes.

Cant install itunes or quicktime

I recently got a new computer (windows 7 x64) and went to download itunes onto it. Everytime I do I get an error saying "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."
I extracted the files and i am able to individually install bonjour, mobile device support, and application support. I cannot install the itunes.msi or the applesoftwareupdate. I get the same error message when I try to do so. The same thing happens when I try to install quicktime normally or via an extracted folder. (quicktime is not part of the itunes extracted folder, does quicktime not come with itunes anymore?)
Ive looked around and saw that the main solution seems to be to "repair" the file in the add or remove programs folder. However, I cannot do that because I am unable to install the apple software file, so applesoftwareupdate is not in the add or remove programs folder. I have tried removing all apple related files, using both "fix it" and Revo, and restarting the download. I still get the same error message. I am completly at a loss here. Any help would be amazing and appreciated.

b noir, Sorry, my mistake. Quicktime isnt even in the extracted folder, it is not installed on my computer currently. I swear I thought I got it to install, I guess not. I get the same error message when I try to install quicktime. Maybe I can try the same trick with an older version of itunes that comes with quicktime?
The extracted itunes folder has appleapplicationsupport, applemobiledevicesupport64, applesoftwareupdate, bonjour64, itunes64, and setupadmin. I can not install applesoftwareupdate, or itunes64.msi and setupadmin doesnt seem to do anything when i open it.
When I try to install itunes64.msi I get the same error message. It automatically installs the other files just like trying to install the normal, unextracted itunes64setup. applesoftwareupdate seems to be the culprit here.

I cant install itunes updates, and now it wont run, cant install or uninstall software error 2324

I can not install or updates itunes sofeware, have had it loaded for years now I get error 2324, i cant install or uninstall the softward

Re-install quicktime manually

i need to re-install quicktime to make my itune work on my IMac G5. i re-installed my operating system recently and cant open itune (it's asking i update quicktime to 7.7,which i have done but still have the 7.2 version)
i'm beginning to hate my MAC as it's getting so frustrtaing for me now
Sad Bukistate

I found the answer, finally!
I reinstalled 10.4... and then manually upgraded quicktime... still didn't work.
Then when I tried using System Profiler to view my Firewire port and no camera appeared I realized something was up with the Firewire port (also I plugged the camera and cable into my G4 laptop and imovie and system profiler saw the camera... so I knew it wasn't the camera or cable).
I searched the support articles for imovie not seeing the camera... and found this:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=88338
which simply says to reset the firewire port... shut down and unplug all the cables from the computer including power for 3 to 5 minutes.
IT WORKED.
Sometimes the most simple answer is staring you in the face.
Anyway. I'm glad it's working again.
Thanks for all the help everyone.

Deleted quicktime x, now I cant download quicktime 7! Can anybody help me

I deleted quicktime x, I'm a video editor and a friend told me not to bother with it. Now I cant download quicktime 7 because it's saying that Quicktime x is already installed! When I try to search for any old remaining quicktime x files to delete, I can't find any. I'm on a deadline, any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

have you trashed the com.apple.QuicktimePlayerX.plist in home/library/preferences ?
In fact, before trashing, just move it to your desktop, keep it and if that does not work, do the same with your com.apple.quicktime.plist (you may find one on the same folder, and there may be another one in your startupdisk/library/preferences.
This is always a good solution before deleting anything for good, as you can see if everything works normally (if not, just move the plists back into their respective positions one by one).

Problem installing Quicktime 7 Pro, help inquiry.

Hi, Im on 10.6.2, I already had Quicktime X installed on the machine, which came with Snow Leopard, But I just purchased Quicktime 7 Pro, and wanted to install that, when I tried, it would not let me because QT X was already installed, so I throw QT X in the trash, then try and download pro, but still, it says that QT X is still there.
The reason I want QT Pro over QT X, is that with Pro I cant take still photos and make them into a video sequence, which I believe X cannot do.
Any idea how to get this QT X off my system, so It will let me install QT Pro.
Many thanks in advance.

Click here for information, and use Pacifist to install QuickTime X.

Installing QuickTime Standalone error aaargh!

I just got a Ipod Nano, but I can't use it because I can't get ITunes to work. I've been reading up on this board for a couple of hours and trying the suggestions but I haven't gotten anything to work. Basically at the beginning I got teh -3 error alot of other posters have been getting. But after screwing around with my computer I might've accidentally made things worse.
I think the base of the problem, like many other users, is getting quicktime to install properly. After I played around with the computer now I get two different messages that pop up during the installation process for the Quicktime standalone installation. The first is " Error 1402.Could not open key: HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Quicktime. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact you support personnel."
The second error message is "Error:-1603 Fatal Error during installation."
I also tried using the windows install cleanup, but I cant because QuickTime isn't listed on the add/remove program list in the control program.
I would really appreciate any help at all. Thank you.

Try this and let us know

Hello Re Mix DJ ,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with iTunes installation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice for the issue you are experiencing:
Remove and Reinstall iTunes and other software components from Windows XP
In some rare instances, you might need to remove iTunes and related software components before reinstalling iTunes. If you're directed to reinstall iTunes by AppleCare, an article, or an alert dialog, you can do so by following the steps below. These steps might take a while to complete, depending on your system.
If you're running Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8 see Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8.
Media you've bought from the iTunes Store or songs you've imported from CDs are saved in your My Music folder by default. They won't be deleted by removing iTunes. Although it's highly unlikely that you'll lose any of your iTunes Library when following the steps below, first make sure that your iTunes library is backed up. See iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive for more information.
If you have issues installing iTunes, try the options outlined in Issues installing iTunes for Windows.
If you've received errors regarding inaccessible registry keys during installation, try the steps found in "Could not open key" message when installing iTunes, QuickTime or Apple components for Windows.
Steps
Remove iTunes and its related components from the Control Panel.Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order. Then restart your computer:
Don't uninstall these components in a different order, or only uninstall some of them. Doing so might have unintended affects.
To remove these components:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Quit the following programs if they're running:
iTunes 
Apple Software Update
Choose Start > Control Panel.
In Control Panel, open "Add or Remove Programs."
Select iTunes from the list of currently installed programs. Click Remove.
When asked if you would like to remove iTunes, select Yes.
After the uninstallation is complete, don't restart your computer if you're prompted.
If you see other iTunes entries in the list, remove them by repeating steps 4–6.
Using steps 4–6, also remove all instances of:
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Restart your computer.
Make sure that iTunes and its related components are completely uninstalled.In most cases, removing iTunes and its related components from the Control Panel will remove all supporting files belonging to those programs. In some rare cases, files might be left behind. After following the steps above, confirm that the following files and folders have been removed. If any are left behind, remove them.
To remove these files:
C:\Program Files\Bonjour\
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\CoreFP
C:\Program Files\iTunes\
C:\Program Files\iPod\
Follow these additional steps if you receive a "Cannot delete iPodService.exe: It is being used by another person or program." message.
Choose Start > My Computer.
Open Local Disk (C:) in Computer, or whichever hard disk your programs are installed on.
Open the Program Files folder.
Right-click the Bonjour folder (if it exists). Select Delete from the shortcut menu. Choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion.

From the Start menu, select My Computer.
Open Local Disk (C:) located in Computer, or whichever hard disk your operating system is installed on.
Open the Windows folder.
Open the System32 folder.
Right-click the Recycle Bin and select Empty Recycle Bin.
Reinstall iTunes and its related components.After you make sure that iTunes is completely uninstalled, restart your computer and install the latest version of iTunes.
If the issue persists, look for more information on the iTunes Support page, including help with specific messages.
iPodService.exe Alert
Follow these steps if the message "Cannot delete iPodService.exe: It is being used by another person or program" appears when you try to delete the iPod folder.
