Getting QuickTime without iTunes?

Is there any way at all to acquire QuickTime without having to install iTunes? With earlier versions I was not forced to install iTunes with QuickTime. Furthermore, I don't know of any third party media player that plays .mov files without QT being installed on the computer, if there is such a player, please enlighten me.
Thanks.

Installing Quicktime without iTunes

Is there any way to install Quicktime without iTunes. I have an older laptop and I just don't need iTunes there as it's on my desktop.
There is a link on the Apple site which points to a 20 MB dowload (information below) but the download link still takes me to the "norman" QuickTime and iTunes download page.
Very frustrating - would appreciate any help I can get.
Thanks,

Cannot get Quicktime (OR Itunes) to install/work

I have had many headaches trying to get Quicktime to work over the past month. I have looked through the forums, uninstalled the program, as well as all the Apple stuff, using a program that would force the uninstall since windows could not do it. I cannot do a Windows restore because the restore point does not go back far enough... If I could just get quicktime to work, I would be happy since so many things require it. Here is what it tells me this time: "The configuration data for this product is corrupt. Contact your support personnel"
So... What options do I have other than formatting my dard drive. I would rather not do that...
Thanks,
-Brett

I tried installing an old version but it says that a newer version of quicktime is already installed.
Okay ... if there's no QuickTime showing in your "Uninstall a program" control panel, and you're getting that message, that usually indicates damage to the QuickTime.msi or related installation componentry.
Unfortunately, these sorts of msi-related troubles have 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. 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 QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try reinstalling iTunes again. Does the install go through properly this time? If so, are you able to launch iTunes without the error message?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

it's possible to give feedback like that directly to the Apple folks (we're a user to user troubleshooting forum). these would probably be the best forms to use for a suggestion like that:

How to install Quicktime WITHOUT iTunes?

It seems that there isn't a Quicktime installation kit, just an "iTunes with Quicktime" kit. That can't be right. I don't want to install Apple bloatware that I'm never going to use and would just uninstall right away just to get a simple video player.
Seriously, iTunes includes DRM (Digital Restrictions Software) of the sort that you often can never get off of your system without crippling it in some way.
All I want to do is watch movie previews. I shouldn't have to install 35 MB of software (compressed) just to watch movie previews.
So please, tell me how to install just Quicktime, or tell me about a Quicktime 7 compatible media player I can use as an alternative.
Tony
P.S. Why are so many movie previews available only in Quicktime format? Does Apple pay the studios to get a monopoly in this area or what? You can usually can get around this by going to Canadian sites, for example the US site for Imagine Me and You has only a Quicktime format preview, but you can go to a Canadian site, http://www.icinema.ca/movie.php?movieID=51628, and they have the preview in Windows Media and Real formats ONLY (Quicktime isn’t even available). But that's an inconvenience. Why can’t we get to choose our media format in the US?
Alienware something-or-other Windows XP

Thanks for the link. That's exactly what I was looking for.
I went back to the "Quicktime Download" tab and I still can't see a link to the /standalone page. It must be hidden somewhere, but Real does the same sort of bait-and-switch thing, except they are trying to trick you into paying for their product, which is even worse.
Also I apologize for the attitude. Just kind of frustrated, having spent too much time trying to solve this very minor problem.

I can't get Quicktime or iTunes to open

Help... I have no idea what's happened, but suddenly my PC won't open up iTunes or Quicktime. When I click on it, it takes about a minute then gives me what looks like a windows error that says "iTunes has encountered an error and needs to close".
I have removed and re-installed BOTH iTunes and Quicktime, but I keep getting the same message. Any ideas out there what I can do to open up iTunes?

Sure wish someone would address this issue soon--That's all I can get, too--Ya gotta love the helpfulness of these errors "Encountered a problem and needs to close..." And that tells us exactly WHAT??? Meanwhile I'm sitting on $800 of software and the tutorials for it require Quicktime which won't play. Grrrrrr! I've installed, uninstalled, restored, reinstalled...and with always the same result. I upgraded my DirectX, running all the latest XP updates, carrying 3 gigs of memory, new ATI Ice 512 mb graphics card..can't imagine what the problem might be at this point.

HT3678 How to get Quicktime without a Snow Leopard Install Disc?

I purchased Snow Leopard through apple as a download. So I never received a disk. And I deleted Quicktime because it would not play audio. I thought I could just fresh reinstall it and it might fix the problem. Where can I download it without the disc? I have scoured the forums, changed Text files to qtz (but since I do not have quicktime on my machine anymore I can't ask Apple to download it for me)... Any ideas? Thanks!

Worth checking which version you deleted (deleting QT is never a good idea as it is an integral part of the operating system).
Mac OS X 10.6 includes QuickTime versions 10.0 and 7.6.3. The QuickTime 7 player will only be present if a QuickTime Pro key was present at the time of installation, or if specified as part of a custom install, or individually downloaded:
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl923
Snow Leopard update 10.6.4 included an update to 7.6.6 (if installed). You can install it from the above link even though it says for 10.6.3. It's the same version of QuickTime Player 7.6.6.
(Only QuickTime Player 7.6.3 or 7.6.6 can be updated to "Pro".)
A Mac OS X v10.6, OS X Lion, and OS X Mountain Lion-compatible version of QuickTime Player 7 is available for use with older media or with AppleScript-based workflows. QuickTime Player 7 can be used to playback formats such as QTVR, interactive QuickTime Movies, and MIDI files. Also, it supports QuickTime 7 Pro registration codes for access to QuickTime Pro functionality.

Have just purchased iPad 2 how do I get started without iTunes?

Just got my iPad 2 and iPhone 4s and have set up an apple I'd and password but how can I get my iPad to work when I haven't got a computer with iTunes on to plug it into? I have registered online instead but the ipd still won't connect to server and therefore won't let me use the iPad?

Usually it's because you are not connecting to the internet via wifi.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Quicktime and iTunes 6 problems...Urgent Help! Please!

I have recieved an iPod for christmas, for use on my laptop which currently uses iTunes 6. I would like to be able to burn some tracks onto a disc, but a CD-Burner for the laptop is not availiable. My Family Computer however, does have a CD-Burner, so I thought I would be able to burn the tracks from here. I installed the version of iTunes supplied with the iPod and connected the ipod to the computer. I attempted to play some purchased music, in order to add it to my library and was told it was not authorised to play in the computer. I attemtpted to authorise it and it then told me that I needed to install iTunes 6. I did so, and half way through the download, it stopped and told me their was an error with the Quick time download (Error : - 3). I attemtpted to use iTunes after the installation finished and it told me that I could not use it becuase it require a certain version of Quicktime. I then attempted to dwnload the version of Quicktime, without iTunes. There was an error (1402). After tis there was another error (-1603). It then told me Quicktime could not complete its installation...Could anyone direct in the right direction to being able to have iTunes 6 and burn tracks from my iPod? Help would be MUCH appreciated...
I am using Windows XP Service Pack 2...

hiya!
I then attempted to dwnload the version of Quicktime, without iTunes. There was an error (1402).
hmmm. that's the underlying problem that is causing the -3 on the itunes install.
let's try applying the following treatments:
Error 1406 or 1402 appears when you install iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
... and if you end up trying the regedit, let's take a few additional precautions on the standalone QT 7.0.3 reinstall after that.
reboot the PC first. then download and save a copy of the QT 7.0.3 installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off any antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
Quicktime 7.0.3 Standalone Installer
keep us posted.

How can I get my old iTunes music onto my new computer without access to my old computer? I left my previous job and forgot to transfer my music. I bought iTunes match and it shows my old Mac as a device, but I cannot get the music off it.

How can I get my old iTunes music onto my new computer without access to my old computer? I left my previous job and forgot to transfer my music. I bought iTunes match and it shows my old Mac as a device, but I cannot access any of the old music. All I can find are what was on my iPhone, but that's not what I want. I need all my old music from my old Mac, which has been wiped clean by IT at my old job. BUT, I did have iCloud at that time and I thought all my music would be accessible through it. I don't understand the Cloud! And I'm thinking spending $24.99 on iTunes Match was a waste of money because I still can't access my old music.

When you are done with this issue, consider the computer back at the office may still
have access to your iTunes account, and it should be de-auhorized. You can do that
remotely, but be sure you carefully do not mess up your other computer iTunes libraries.
Good luck & happy computing!

How do I get a new iTunes account to create a backup of what's on my wifes iPhone without deleting all the photos and stuff?

How do I get a new iTunes account to create a backup of what's on my wifes iPhone without deleting all the photos and stuff?

Well, I believe I found it.....
When I connect the IPhone the device name pops up under devices in the selection column. Right click on the device name and select "Back-up".....
If this is incorrect please let others know as I won't be able to because my wife will have destroyed all computers in the house for losing her data.

After upgrading, I am getting the dreaded "iTunes has stopped working" message. I've followed all of the troubleshooting tips on the forum without success. Fortunately, it works on my other computers. Running Win7 pro.

After upgrading iTunes, I'm getting the dreaded "iTunes has stopped working" message after launch. I've tried the troubleshooting tips on the Forum without success (though most are pretty old...). Fortunately, iTunes works on my other computers, but I have iPad backups on this one that I'd like to keep. Anybody else with this issue??

My inclination is that it is something in the projects or in the manuals being linked that is the culprit because that is where the consistency lies - projects were created identically and manuals all follow identical formats. The problem typically only occurs after the project has been successfully created and the manual is subsequently updated and I am syncing the manual in RH so I can generate a new AIR file. This is the first time the project has consistently corrupted every time I try to generate the Word document after linking it in RH. This makes little sense to me since it generated fine a couple weeks ago and I did nothing special when I updated it in Word yet when I tried to update it in RH, that is when it originally corrupted. The bottom line is that I cannot 100% trust that any project I run will work the next time. I end up just crossing my fingers and hoping for the best.
My problems seemed to start once I went to RH9 (from RH8) because we had upgraded from MS Office 2003 to the 2010 version and I needed 9 for the docx extension. Like I said, it is not all the time - I can be beating my head against the wall getting one of the projects to work, then create 3 more projects that have no problems and then the next one leaves me wanting to throw my PC through a window....
Deleting the CPD does not corrupt the project, it just removes my default linked document that allows me to circumvent linking the styles individually for that project. Once I have a manual linked and I remove the CPD, it just creates a new one. What I am saying is that if I delete the CPD file, it does not prevent the project from corrupting nor does it make the corrupted project viable again.
thanks!
