Exception Error from the Quicktime control panel/Update

When I press the Update button under the Update tab, I get the following error:
An exception occurred while trying to run "C:\Windows\system32\shell32.dll,Control_RunDD "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\QuickTime.cpl",QuickTime"
Quicktime seems to run correctly and says I have version 7.4.1 installed, so I'm not really worried as I wind up having to manually install any updates anyways. Also, I have automatic updates disabled, I have removed the autoupdater from my startup (slowed down my windows loading), and since that Bonjour service is annoying and nonessential, I have turned it off as well.
If any of these are the reason for the error, I'm willing to live with it. Just thought I'd let you know about the update error.

Do you have an nVidia video card in that PC, Drakaran? That seem to be the common factor for people with the Update tab crash with 7.3.1, 7.4 and (presumably) 7.4.1 (and also the crash when they try using "Help > Update Existing Software" instead of using the Update tab in the control panel).
One way around it (for some folks) is to go to the Advanced tab in their QuickTime control panel, and check "Safe mode (GDI only)". With that setting in place, OK out of the control panel, restart QuickTime and try another check for updates.

  • How do I locate the quicktime control panel (to upgrade to quicktime pro) in Windows 7 home premium?

    I just paid to upgrade QuickTime and received a registration code. Tho problem is there is no way to find the QuickTime control panel via the Windows 7 Home Premium control panel. How to I ovrcome this?
    p.s. I'm a newbe to QuickTime :-)

    Thanks Gary,
    This does not help me... the instructions state:
    1. Locate the QuickTime 7 Control Panel
    From the Windows Desktop, click on the Start menu, choose Settings, then choose Control Panel, then locate the QuickTime 7 Control Panel.
    However, I cannot locate the QuickTime 7 Control Panel on the Windows 7 control panel -- it's not listed anywhere in the available options.

  • Unable to scan from the printer control panel to my computer using the HP Photosmart 5510

    Hi, I recently purchased the new HP Photosmart 5510 All in One --- and I’m not able to scan from my printer to my computer. I am however able to scan by initiating the scan from the computer. I spoke to HP customer care earlier this evening and we ran the print + scan doctor and did not find any problems. I’m running Windows 7 – 64bit and have installed my printer wirelessly using the Installation CD that came with the printer today. I wasn’t able to finish troubleshooting with the technician I spoke to because I had to leave for work. The Person I spoke with suggested possibly downloading the Full Feature Software from the hp.com website, which I’m happy to do but I feel that it is unnecessary because I have the install CD right here. (The rep I spoke to was very nice but I’d rather not have to uninstall and reinstall if it is not necessary) Because as I mentioned above, everything else works perfectly and I am able to scan --- just not directly from the printer itself.  When I'm trying to scan from my printer to my computer an error message comes up on the printer's control panel stating that: there is no scan destinations selected/no scan options. However, I can not find anywhere with my HP software where I could add/ensure that the destinations were there. (Like I could on my other printers. (Ie. Through the Solution Center) This printer does not seem to have a Solution Center that I could find and the Scanner Icon that was installed with the CD does not give me any options in terms of modifying the scanner settings I’m wondering: 1. Does the Hp Photosmart 5510 not have the capability to scan from the printer’s control panel? 2. OR Does the install CD that came with my printer only have the basic drivers like the tech support agent suggested? Which means in order to scan from my printer I’d have to download the drivers from your hp website? 3. Or is the issue due to something else completely?  Thanks for your help! 

    Hi Dublin, Follow the steps below to uninstall and reinstall the printer. 1. Open Control Panel2. Click on Uninstall a program3. Uninstall the Photosmart 6510 from the list4. Reboot your computer5. Download and install the latest version of Adobe flash player http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html 6. Download the full feature software and drivers, and then reinstall the printer. Version 28.8

    Can anyone help, please.  I never had this problem before but now I can not check the photos box on the icloud control box...its the faded gray area and I can't select that option.

    I am trying to mask a small area of some of the shots I am using for a small teaser.  The three tools that are supposed to present themselves on the effects tab when I select an effect such as "Brightness and Contrast" are not there.  Does anyone know another way to use these tools, or how to add them to the effects tab?

    What version of PPro are you running?
    Its only available on recent versions. Not sure 1st but CC2014.1 onward maybe .

  • Exception trying to start the JRE Control Panel

    I've run into some persistent problem with seemingly any version of the JRE on my WinXP system. Whenever I try to start the control panel, either from the Windows Control Panel UI, or from the Java system tray icon, I get an exception error:
    java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 365
         at com.sun.deploy.panel.UpdatePanel.setText(Unknown Source)
         at com.sun.deploy.panel.UpdatePanel.actionPerformed(Unknown Source)

         at com.sun.deploy.panel.ControlPanel.<init>(Unknown Source)
         at com.sun.deploy.panel.ControlPanel.main(Unknown Source)
    This is what happens on the first attempt after the OS has booted, and subsequent attempts just result in nothing obvious happening (no control panel, no error, nothing).
    I currently have JRE 1.6.0_07-b06 installed, but this seems to be happening with any JRE version I try. I had remnants of older JRE's under C:\Program Files\java, and I went through ensuring that each was removed (if I could get rid of it via Add/Remove Applications, I used that) until I was down to zero other than the MS JVM that is inherently part of Windows. I then installed the current Sun JRE and still have the problem. :-\ So not sure what it is the JRE control panel is trying to do here, nor how to fix it other than reinstalling the OS (and I'm not that desperate, but it really is annoying).
    I figure it's probably something still hanging around in the Registry (<shudder!>) and poking around under HKLM\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft, I see keys for various old versions under the \Java Plug-in, \Java Runtime Environment, and \Java Web Start keys, most of which look like references to directories or files which no longer exist on the system. Any thoughts as to whether I can just safely delete these keys as a sanity check (jeez I wish Sun had steered clear of the Registry)? What I'm wondering is since the JRE control panel (when it works :-) shows you a list of installed JREs it found, I'm wondering if these bogus versions listed in the Registry are causing the ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.
    Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

  • Cannot login from Windows iCloud control panel, but that not all...

    I set up my Apple Id and downloaded the Windows iCloud control panel, but when I try to sign in from my PCI get this message: "You can't sign in because of a server error." But when I check the status of icloud everything is operational. But if I go to the icloud page directly, I can sign in normally. The reason this is an issue is that I cannot setup icloud on my computer properly and with all of the options I want without signing in from the icloud control panel. This really bites, and any help would be appreciated immensly.
    Thanks, Scott

    I am having the same problem. I really need a solution. My Admin is flying blind without being able to see my calendars.

  • Cant access quicktime control panel

    I may be stupid or somethin, but I can't find the **** quicktime control panel to upgrade to the pro version.
    I looked through my computer's control panel, there is only one user on it, but it looks like there is also an old administrator user there too.
    There isn't anything about quicktime in my control panel, and I looked through the quicktime files in the c drive and didn't see anything about a control panel there either. Somebody got an idea? Because I just spent a worthless 39 dollars, and am seriously considering making the switch to linux.

    Thanks. I do have a lot of appreciation for the macintosh-expecially since they came out with the os x. There's no doubt about it, it will be my next computer. If only I could get one at work.
    But until I can afford that new computer, it's easy to convert my windows machine into that friendly linux that I'm getting used to.
    There's no mistaking that Apple is the best in the business. But with windows, it's always one thing after another. I bought a new computer a year ago, the one I had lasted me 6 years, was expecting this one to do the same. But alas, a few viruses later it was toast. HP didn't give me the software to start over, so I had to do a system restore. Needless to say I don't have time to dig through my entire hard drive deleting the remains of the virus. But hey-no problem, because I have another one on there now.
    And AIM is causing some wierd things to happen with the ui, among many other problems I constantly have.
    So, instead of buying a new version of windows xp, which I can only re-install twice, I'm switching to my friendly linux. Then when I can, it's apple.
    I really think the only reason people don't switch to the mac is because the first time you use it, it's different enough to be confusing or even frustrating. But after the first week, anybody should be using one with confidence. Some people might need some kind of tutorial or something.

  • Is there a way to sync only the calendar with the new control panel?

    I did the iCloud control panel update on my work machines this morning and it looks like it will only sync the calendar with outlook if you let it sync your contacts and tasks as well. The main reason I use iCloud is to sync my work meetings/events between my work PC and my phone. It liked the way it worked before, but now the user has less control over what it syncs. Is there a way to sync the calendar only?
    Also, it's made outlook quit unexpectedly on both machines, but I assume they'll have bug fixes eventually. I'm running one machine with Office 2007 and one with 2010.

    The iCloud Control Panel 2.0, just release with iOS 6, forces users to upload Outlook contacts to iCloud in order to sync calendar and reminders with iPhone. This is unacceptable to me.  Because of this and bugs in the Outlook/iCloud plugin, I have discontinued use of iCloud and will sync my iPhone with Outlook using itunes. I will have to forego using Outlook task syncing with iPhone reminders because iTunes doesn't sync them, which is unfortunate.

    2) escribe CMD y pulsa enter
    te va a aparecer una nueva ventana
    3) escribe "netsh winsock reset"

  • I received a low ink warning on my mac for my epson artisan 837 printer. I replaced the cartridge that was low but it still reads low ink on the mac but reads full on the epson control panel. I am also receiving a communication error between the mac

    What exactly is the error?
    And, we'd need some info re. your Mac model and OS version - you are not running iOS on it.
    You need to realize that this model has been discontinued and the last driver updates are dated about a year ago. If you are running Mavericks, there may not be an updated driver for it. But you can try to delete the printer and add it again to see if that will work.
