According to the accompanying Apple information the answer is no. However Apple do say if you also want to play other older QuickTime movie files then you will need QuickTime.
The conclusion is that if your only using music, or your only using movies purchased via the iTunes Store then it seems you no longer need QuickTime installed in Windows with iTunes 10.5.

Need Quick Time with Premier Elements 9?

I just downloaded and installed the trial version of Premier Elements 9. At the end of the installation, a message was displayed that Quick Time is needed for certain formats (e.g., MOV).
However, apparently, Quick Time is no longer an Adobe product - I can't find it on the Adobe website.
What is the solution?

Quick Time Player was never an Adobe product, though some versions of Adobe programs did/do include the free, Apple Quick Time Player in the installation. Go to Apple's QT Player download page. And yes, QT Player is required. Just download and install the latest version.
Good luck,
Hunt

I need quick time 7.5.5 for itunes.How to repair problem of installation?

I have mac leopard 10.5.5 powerpc and I have itunes 10.6.3.

I tried to install quick time but there is a problem of instalation.
How to repair problem of installation of Quick Time?

Some specific downloads of QuickTime:
7.5.5 for Tiger
7.6 for Tiger
7.6.4 for Leopard
7.7 for Leopard
Since you have Mac OS X 10.5, Leopard, it would probably be better to use one of those Leopard-specific downloads.

I'm trying to open the latest i-tunes but it keeps saying I need quick time 7.5 or higher

I'm trying to open the latest i-tunes but it keeps saying I need quick time 7.5 or higher (which I do) and I have no updates available for quicktime

QuickTime 7.5.5 for Leopard - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL27
QuickTime 7.7 for Leopard - http://support.apple.com/kb/dl761
= New version of Quicktime installed but application reports it needs to have that version installed =
Open Application > Utilities > System Profiler and check the Quicktime version in Frameworks vs. the version in Applications. One person had re-installed their operating system. It had kept the newer Player application but had reverted to an earlier version of the underlying support framework files which many applications utilize. Re-installing Quicktime 7.7 took care of the problem. Do this manually, not with Software Update.
Installation get stuck at "configuring installation" - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2592979?threadID=2592979 - uninstall Quicktime before installing.

Why do I need Quick time 7 and Quicktime 10 ?

I have just migrated from iMac5 (2.16 GHz) Mac OS 10.4.11 Quicktime 7.6.4 to a new imac 3.06 Mac OS 10.6.2 Quicktime 10.0.
Some of my quicktime files play ok but others prompt me to download quicktime version 7. Why do I need to do this ? (There seem to be a lot of problems with this looking at the forums). All the files play on the old mac. Why isn't Quicktime forward compatible or why is there no import facility so that you can make your old files compatible ?
Or am I missing something ?

Some of my quicktime files play ok but others prompt me to download quicktime version 7. Why do I need to do this ?
Because your system thinks you are missing specific codecs required for the playback of certain compression formats. In some cases this may be an installation problem in which the codec was "lost" or "orphaned" during the update process. In others it may be a need to update the component to work properly under the dual QT X/7 framework installed under the Snow Leopard OS. You need to check the Inspector/Finder Info or similar window to determine what specific codec is causing the problem and then re-install or update that specific codec/component/package.
(There seem to be a lot of problems with this looking at the forums).
Most of the problems are "self-inflicted" by individuals who, rather than studying the problem symptoms, analyzing them to determine their cause, and then fixing the problems, elect to immediately delete and re-install software -- often attempting to mix components from different operating systems and/or update versions of the software in their haste.
All the files play on the old mac. Why isn't Quicktime forward compatible or why is there no import facility so that you can make your old files compatible?
I am running both Leopard and Snow Leopard variations of QT v7.6.6 and all of my "old" files have remained compatible -- to include MPEG-2 video and a limited number of third-party supported compression formats. Since my configurations continue to work properly, my first guess is that you have an unresolved configuration problem or inability for your QT X 64-bit routines to communicate/switch properly with the 32-bit routines as required for your content.
Why do I need Quick time 7 and Quicktime 10?
Technically, you probably don't. However, as an old QT 7 Pro user who likes many of the QT 7 Player controls/options/features better than QT X's new but more basic features, I maintain both in active service and tend to use QT 7 as the default player of most of my work flows. Still, this is up to the individual. I am in no hurry to rush the changeover from an older but still more reliable QT technology to a more modern, but as yet, less mature and well tested "new" QT technology. In short, I feel it best to make the most of both dispensations during the development of this "new" version of QT.

My iPod is disabled, but not because I forgot the password. It says I need to connect with iTunes, but when I try it says I need to enter the password. What do I do?

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

You will need to upgrade your MacBook OS to at least 10.5.8 or preferably Snow Leopard 10.6.X

I'm using a public computer and I need to conect with itunes

I'm using a public computer and I need to conect with itunes, how can I do?

Unless you can install iTunes on that "public" computer (highly unlikley), there's nothing you can do except find a computer with iTunes.

Itunes needs quick time? Instillation help please!

My computer crashed and I took it to a friend a few days ago to get it cleaned off. He cleaned everything off and gave it back to me running like a brand new comp.
So I was in the middle of downloading all of my things and I was downloading itunes again. When it was all finished and supposedly dandy I went to open it and it said it couldn't open it because it needed the newest version of quicktime and that I needed to reinstall it.
So I did what it said and downloaded the newer version of quicktime with itunes and restarted the computer like it told me to. Upon going to open itunes it gave me the very same message and said I need to reinstall it. So mildly ticked at this point I did what it said (for the third time) and STILL got the same message. ><
Can someone please help me!

You are not alone Spook. I have the same problem. Auto Quicktime Update has hosed iTunes. I have found no solution nor any interest from Apple to provide one, other than uninstall it all and try again, which doesn't work. This is an Apple problem, not a Windows problem. And the direct effect is to prevent me from accessing iTunes and spending money there.

I have just installed the new version of quick time but my Itunes is still telling me that it needs quick time to play the film.

Can anyone help me fix my itunes? I have the new version of quick time but it is now telling me it wont play my films on itunes because it needs quicktime. Iv tried un installing quicktime and re installing it but that hasnt worked. I dont know why it would suddenly stop working, I watched something on it this morning.

Can you check something for me please? I'd like to try doing a "Run as administrator" on your iTunes.
Quit iTunes first.
In Computer, open Local Disk C: or whichever drive you have your program files installed on.
If you have a 32-bit Windows, open the "Program files" folder.
If you have a 64-bit Windows, open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
Open the "iTunes" folder.
Right-click on the iTunes.exe file and select "run as administrator".
Try playing the movie now. Does it play for you without the message?
