Error when installing QuickTime for iTunes 7

"The installlation of QuickTime did not complete successfully. iTunes requires QuickTime."
That's exactly how it appears, typo and all, when I attempt to install iTunes 7.
Here are a few errors from a log file:
MessageType: INSTALLMESSAGE_INFO
Message: 1: ISMsiServerStartup Failure, Failed to create InstallDriver, Error = 0x80029c4a
Returning: 1L
MessageType: INSTALLMESSAGE_INFO
Message: 1: MsiServerStartup failed. Abort installation.
Returning: 1L
MessageType: INSTALLMESSAGE_INFO
Message: Action ended 16:41:27: ISMsiServerStartup. Return value 1603.
Returning: 1L
MessageType: INSTALLMESSAGE_INFO
Message: Action ended 16:41:27: ISStartup. Return value 3.
Returning: 1L
I can post the rest if it would help. I've googled for this and can't turn up anything. Any help would be appreciated.
I've also checked the InstallDriver parameters in C:\WINDOWS\system32\dcomcnfg.exe are set to the launching user.

Ok...Here's what will solve your problem for sure. I know because it worked for me.
Step 1.) If you have itunes/quicktime on your computer, uninstall quicktime using the installer that came with it. You don't need to uninstall itunes.
Step 2.) Reboot your computer and terminate/disable all antivirus/spyware shields/protection.
Step 3.) Click start, run, type regedit, and navigate to the key that was mentioned when you first tried to install/upgrade itunes and quicktime. Delete the folder the key (value) resides in, which is something like: QuickTimePlayerLib.QuickTimePlayerApp (whatever is said from the installer).
Step 4.) Close the registry editor, and install the new itunes/quicktime. You might want to download it again to start with a fresh copy.
Note: If you did as I said, it will work and quicktime/windows will not be harmed because of the registry editing.
Hope this solves this problem once and for all. Have fun!

  • HT6413 I keep getting a installation pkg error when installing icloud for windows 7 on my pc.

    I keep getting an windows installation error when installing icloud for windows 7.  I have tried installing manually without success.

    There is a very long way which is removing anything related to Apple including stuff in the registry.
    The short way is as follows. It worked for me.
    I have seen that in the forum EXCEPT the registry trick which is missing and does the different.
    1. Remove the Apple account from Outlook.  In my case a me.com account.
    2. Disconnect the connection to ICloud in the control panel of version 3.1.
    REBOOT and open Outlook to see that all traces of the email account and of ICloud are gone.
    3. Uninstall ICloud 3.1. I used REVO Uninstaller in Safe way mode. It removed some stuff in the registry from what I see; but not sure.
    4. Delete as much stuff as possible in the C \Program Files (x86) \Common Files \ Apple
    and C\Program Files\Common Files \Apple.  My computer is 64 bits.
    5. Go to the registry by typing regedit.exe or simply type regedit in the Start Box. Search for ICloud.  I deleted TWO entries related to ICloud. Otherwise, you will still see the ICloud control panel despite the fact that you removed 3.1.
    6. then I was able to install ICloud 4 immediately.  Upon restarting it asked me my email and password and added itseft to Outlook like it was before. Be aware that you address book in Outlook could be deleted, so do an export before.

  • DEP error when opening quicktime and itunes

    I've installed the latest version of both quicktime and itunes on my new laptop but neither of them open as they are prevented by DEP on windows vista, does anyone have any idea how to get around this or help me. It's fustrating as i can't update the music on my i-pod touch

    DEP errors often seem to occur with incompatible codecs.
    Go to your control panel (classic view) and try to start QUicktime Preferences. Post the error message *in full*. This can give a clue about codec issues.
    Have you installed any of the following:
    ACE & K-Lite mega codecs package, QT alternative, Storm codec, WinAVI video converter, Mpcstar, (possibly starcodec pack, 3ivx)
    If so uninstall them.
    Assuming this is a codec problem you need to remove then reinstall QUickitme after uninstalling the problem software.
    Then download the version of Quickime without iTunes:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    Now Remove Quicktime using the method for Quicktime in this article (just Quicktime):
    XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Vista
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    When you come to your C:\Windows\system32\ folder you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
    Restart you computer
    Install the stand alone Quicktime and check if it starts.
    If it does you are in a position to find out if iTunes is OK.

  • Errors when installing Quicktime 7

    I purchased and installed Quicktime Pro. When I upgraded to Quicktime 7, I get error messages on my desktop.
    The movie file P1020888.MOV cannot be found. Without this file, the movie cannot play properly. (Cancel or search)
    I can't cancel this message, the movies in question are old movies that have been deleted.
    I have had to uninstall Quicktime to get rid of these messages.

    The movie file P1020888.MOV cannot be found.
    Without this file, the movie cannot play properly.

    interesting ... the following article is pretty old,
    but it seems like it might be relevant to your
    message (even though the article title mentions
    iTunes rather than QuickTime):

    I have no movies in the ITunes library. What next? Thanks.

  • Error when installing Quicktime

    Could not open key: HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classes\QuickTimePlayerLib.QuickTimePlayerApp\CLSID. Verify that you have sufficent access to that key, or contact your support personnel
    Somebody please help me

    I would like to thank all the posters who replied. Everyone added important information to help figure this out.
    Here's what I did, step by step.
    1) Click Start, then Run, then type regedit and press OK.
    2) Open HKEYLOCALMACHINE, then SOFTWARE, then Classes. Scroll down to QuickTimePlayerLib.QuickTimePlayerApp (or whatever key that you're getting an Access Denied error)
    3) Right click on it (you might have to do it twice).
    4) Select Permissions after ignoring any messages telling you that you don't have access
    5) Once inside Permissions, click Advanced, then Owner, then click on your account, then press Apply, then OK
    6) Next click Add, then Advanced, then Find Now
    7) Hold down the CTRL key and click on Administrators, your own account, and SYSTEM
    8) Click on Administrators, then click the Full Control checkbox. The "Read" checkbox will automatically get checked, then press Apply
    9) Do this for each account. Hopefully once you do it for Administrators the others will already have Full Control checked and "Apply" will be greyed out. Press OK when you're done.
    10) Next click on CLSID back in the registry editor and repeat steps 3 through 9.
    11) Try installing Quicktime again and when you get another Access Denied error, note the registry key and go back and repeat steps 2 through 9 for that key.
    12) Keeping trying to install Quicktime until you've resolved all the permissions for all the keys that this pathetic setup script requires
    13) Eventually it will install successfully.

  • Error when installing Oracle8i for Windows98

    I got an error when Oracle8i for Windows 98 was finished with its install. I ignored the error and tried using the database. Everything seems to work fine. Has anyone encountered this error. Does anyone think this will cause a problem in the future, if so, any suggestions to fix the problem. Any info/suggestions will be helpful.

    i have the same problem (ORACLE caused an invalid page fault in module KERNEL32.DLL ...) in the end of the oracle8i, win98 install. But also for the developper 6.0 when it's installed in the same 8i oracle_home. I've installed in another oracle_home directory and it seems to work.

  • TS1609 Error when installing or updating iTunes on Windows 8

    When I try to install or update iTunes, I receive a message to the effect that there has been a failure to install property. It is suggested that I verify that I have sufficient privileges to start system services??? I have full administrative privileges of my system. McAfee is not installed.
    I've uninstalled and attempted to reinstall the latest version of iTunes several times with the same results. This all began with a simple attempt to update to version 11.0.3.42.
    Any suggestions or help will be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi ladymelbo... You're digging up some old threads unneccessarily. While Safari might work for you it seems Apple are no longer interested in its development, it hsn't been updated in nearly 2 years. For those looking to download iTunes at this time the direct download links in the further information section of Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates might be more useful.

  • Driver Version Not Found" Error when installing drivers for X-fi Xtreme audio

    I recently bought the game Bioshock off steam and have been unable to play as it crashes as soon as I try to launch it. After doing some digging around I found out it was a sound problem. When I was looking at the drivers for my sound card (Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio) I noticed that the driver called:?XFXA_PCDRV_LB__04_0079.exe has a fix for Bioshock. However when I install the driver I get the error "Driver version not found". I am positi've it is the correct driver for my sound card. I am on Windows 7 64bit.

    Hey!
    I have Vista Ultimate x64 and I ran windows update couple days ago. There was a new update for my xtreme audio pci-e. I installed it and now my driver version in creative software update is .3.2. Before i updated i ran creative's own software update. It didn't find any new drivers. I was WTF. I think that new driver fixed my volume problem. I had problem's when there was a deep bass in a song. The sound card lowered volume levels then somehow. Now that happens no more. In vista's device control it shows the driver version as 6.0.0.203. Driver date is 7 october 2008.

  • Error when installing Quicktime 7.1.3

    I'm having trouble updating my iTunes/QuickTime to the newest version. The error I get is:
    Could not open key:
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classes\QuickTimePlayerLib.QuickTimePlayerApp\CLSID. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel. I should have access to anything, there are two local admin accounts and I have a domain admin account on the domain that the computer belongs to.
    I have since successfully uninstalled iTunes. I uninstalled QuickTime and got the same error, with a few others registry related, but it continued and said it finished uninstalling successfully.
    Now I try to install the standalone QuickTime 7.1.3 and get the same error and it rolls back the installation. I found a bunch of QuickTime related keys in HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classes but if I even click on them I get an error: Cannot open "whatever key": Error while opening key.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction, or should I just re-install the OS?

    I'm having the same problem, but so far, none of the solutions I've seen on other threads have worked. I've made sure that I have permissions on everything, but the registry still won't give me access. I'm starting to think that my registry (or at least any keys associated to QuickTime*) might be corrupted.
    By the way BDude004, in any earlier versions of iTunes, did you have any errors pop up, talking about errors changing filetypes? that happened to me often, and I'm wondering if it was a precursor to this registry problem.
    * I say this because I get the same "Cannot open QuickTime.[some QT associated filetype]: Error while opening key." message whenever I click on that key in the registry editor.

  • Encountering errors when installing OO40 for oracle  10g version 10.1.0.5.2

    Hello:
    I am installing an oracle application (argus) on a machine running Windows 2008 Server and Oracle 11g Database..
    The Argus installation manual says that Oracle Objects should be installed.
    I found the version listed in the Sibject line but when I tried to run the installer, it comes up with an error dialog box that says "Abnormal program termination. An internal error has occured. Please provide the following files to Oracle Support" and then says "Unlknown" three times.
    Did anybody encounter this scenario? How did you resolve it?
    Venki

    Hi:
    While I am still waiting for someone to help to solve the issue, I did some research. I used the Oracel Universal Installer and checked into the Products.XML associated with the installation for Oracle Objects I downloaded from Oracle site. The Installer came up with the following error message:
    Some components in the Stage Area have stage versions less than 10.2.0.0.0. Please ensure that all the components have their stage versions greater than or equal to 10.2.0.0
    I opened Products.XML and all components are 10.1.x.
    Any idea where I can get compatible versions?

  • Error when installing ICQ for Mac

    Today I attempted to install the official ICQ messenger for Mac (which I downloaded here: http://download.icq.com/download/mac/en ) but the installation of the .air file failed and asked me to contact the software creator for a new installation file.
    Recommended system requirements:
    Mac OS X v10.4.9 or later (ok)
    Flash 10 and above (ok)
    Adobe Air 2.5 (ok)
    The system.log shows the following error:

    ========================================================================
    So it's quite obvious that the package signature failed. However, I was able to install this messenger on another machine successfully, so I'm wondering why it always fails for this MacBook.

    First of all, thanks for your answer. No I've had no previous versions of ICQ installed on this system, it's a brand new MacBook.
    It should be the same version since they apparently didn't update it since 2011. It actually still works on the other machine but I can't seem to get it working on this one.
    I re-downloaded the installer like 5 times but it always returned the same error message, unfortunately. The package signature validation continues failing all the time.

  • 403 Forbidden errors when calling GetUploadURL for iTunes U API

    I am trying to test the uploading of XML to iTunes U using the provided
    API. However, I am consistently receiving a 403 Forbidden response
    (and resulting exception thrown in Java) when I attempt to get the
    URL for upload with the call to /WebObjects/Core.woa/API/GetUploadURL/.
    I am able to generate successful login URLs with identical calls to
    /WebObjects/Core.woa/API/GetBrowseURL/, which successfully authenticate
    me to iTunes U, with the same credential.
    Furthermore, following a suggestion found online, I have issued calls to
    /WebObjects/Core.woa/Browse/ with my debugging string appended, again
    with the same credentials, and that SUCCEEDS, telling me that
    "Because the received signature and time were valid, the received identity
    and credentials were accepted by iTunes U" so I get no further information.
    My system clock has the proper time, etc.
    I am also able to retrieve an XML manifest of the contents of my site
    by issuing a call to /API/ShowTree/, no problem whatsoever.
    Any ideas of what might be the problem? Or perhaps some way I might be
    able to do further debugging? Putting the debug string on the
    GetUploadURL does nothing, the Forbidden overrides me getting any actual
    response at all.
    Thanks for any assistance.

    Just a sanity check here ...
    When you use GetUploadURL, and you want to send a web services XML document rather than an ordinary media file, you must also include the type=XMLControlFile token in your token string.
    That is, normally, you create a token string this way:
    credentials=your-creds&identity=your-identity&time=12345678&signature=big-long-h ex-string
    When you want an upload URL for a web services request, you need to add one more token ...
    credentials=your-creds&identity=your-identity&time=12345678&signature=big-long-h ex-string
    &type=XMLControlFile
