Help- Accidentally deleted quicktime X

i thought i should "grade" to quicktime 7 pro, to get additional features. after I purchased and removed quick time X for snow leopard, I read that the new quick time is better. Not sure if that is correct. but anyway, like and idiot I removed, and emptied the trash of quick time X. Anyone know how I can get it back?

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.

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".

Accidentally deleted Quicktime and it wont install again

Hi, I accidentally deleted Quicktime X from my computer and emptied the trash. When I went to install Quicktime again from Apple, it says it wont let me. In the Install window is says, "Quicktime cant be installed on this disk. This version Quicktime 7 cant be installed on this disk because Quicktime X is already present. Please use Software update to install the appropriate version of Quicktime for your Mac."

Use Pacifist to extract it from your Mac OS X 10.6 DVD and then run the Mac OS X 10.6.8 combo updater.

I accidentally deleted QuickTime from my computer. Then I did a system restore and retrieved it. Now Itunes can't find QuickTime and will not open. Is there a fix for this without my Ipod?

Hmmm. There's a couple of things that might be going on with that one.
Let's try an uninstall and reinstall of QuickTime first.
If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel. Select "QuickTime", click "Change" and then click "Remove".
If you're using & or Vista, head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select QuickTime, and then click "Uninstall".
You can get QuickTime back either via Apple Software Update (in your Start menu go "All Programs > Apple Software Update" ... QuickTime should appear in the "New Programs" section), or by downloading a QuickTimeInstaller.exe from the following location:

Does your iTunes launch properly now?

Accidentally deleted quicktime

while deleting files on my laptop I deleted quicktime. I can't open itunes without it. the error message says to reinstall itunes. If I do that, will I lose my existing itunes library? thanks

Perhaps let's first try a standalone QuickTime reinstall:
Latest Quicktime Installers … get the one that doesn’t mention iTunes
If that install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching iTunes again. Does it launch properly this time?
(If you get an error message on the QuickTime reinstall, let us know what it says. Please include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

Help. Deleted Quicktime using the Trash and I need to get it back!

Hi,
Quicktime was not playing .avi files so I though I'd delete it and reinstall it to clear up the problem. So I dragged Quicktime into the trash and emptied it. When I tried to reinstall it I got a message saying that Quicktime cannot be installed on this disk because Quicktime X is already present. I need to get Quicktime back, can anybody help me please?

Extract the QuickTime X player from your Mac OS X 10.6 DVD and then run the combo updater for your Mac OS X version.
If you want QuickTime 7, it's here.
If you can't play a given AVI, install Perian. If you still can't play it, it probably can't be played in Mac OS X.

HELP:: Accidentally deleted Old Time Machine Backup!

I was trying to free up some space on my external HD, and deleted a prior backup - assuming that the one called "Latest" was the backup I wanted.
When I deleted the backup named "01/11/09" - it actually appears to have deleted the contents of any/all of my backups!
What I'm worried about - is that before I realized this - I emptied the trash, and restarted the computer.
This is critical stuff that is from a previous computer that I just sold when I upgraded. Years worth of files and photos.
Any help is much appreciated.

First, you should never delete any backups from finder. if you have to do it it should only be done from TM interface. since you've emptied trash your ONLY hope now is using data recovery software like Filesalvage or Data Rescue II. you should turn off TM and use one of those programs asap to maximize recovery chances.
Also, you should never use TM as an archiving utility to store files. It is a backup tool not an archiving tool. old backups are constantly thinned and eventually recycled without warning.
If you need to store some data permanently keep it on a separate drive.

Terminal help - accidentally deleted /System/Library/Extensions

So I foolishly deleted my entire Extensions folder. I only trashed it though, not emptied. But I can't boot up. The only way I can get into anything is by using the retail Snow Leopard CD. From here I can get to the terminal.
So...
Can I restore my files from the trash via the terminal in the install cd?
I've been trying some commands but no luck so far.
Help is greatly appreciated.

Perfect. It took a little tweaking. First I had to create the "Extensions" directory again, and even then it wouldn't let me move a whole directory, just individual files. The "-R" command worked that out though.
The full code I ended up using was...
cp -R /Volumes/"Hard Drive"/.Trashes/*/Extensions /Volumes/"Hard Drive"/System/Library/Extensions

Accidentally deleted Quicktime files now quicktime, or imovie won't open

Hi,
My quicktime was not working properly so I thought I could remove all the quicktime files to trash and try to download another one from the apple website. But, when I do so it says I have Quicktime X already installed. But, when I try to open programs with Quicktime it just gives me an error message and closes. I also, cannot open other programs that use QuickTime such as iMovie. It says " The QuickTime components necessary to view, edit, import, and export several kinds of movies are not installed. These components are included with the iMovie installer; please re-install. " Where do I get these components to download again?

" Where do I get these components to download again?
From your install disc. You will need to custom install Quicktime which should be included either inside the bundled software folder or the Applications folder.
If you cannot locate, you will need to use Pacifist.
Just launch the installer and click the Continue buttons until you reach the _Custom Install_ screen. Click the triangle next to Applications, click the box next to the application you want to custom install, and click the Install button to install the application.
If you’d like to reinstall applications that aren’t offered in the Custom Install screen—applications in the Utilities folder or in the Bundled Software folder for example—you can use Pacifist - http://www.charlessoft.com/
*To use Pacifist:*
Insert your Mac OS X Installer disc. Download Pacifist and launch it. In the window that appears click the Open Apple Install Discs button. A window will appear offering you the single choice to look at the OSInstall package. Click OK.
Pacifist will churn away for a bit and then you’ll see a window titled OSInstall.mpkg. In this window you can dig down through the hierarchy of folders to find what you seek or you can enter the name of what you’re after in the Find field and press Return. A drawer appears that lists the names of matching files.
To install an item click the Install button in the upper-left corner of the window. You’ll be prompted for your administrator’s password. Enter it, click OK, and the item will be installed into its proper location on your Mac’s hard drive.

Accidentally deleted Quicktime Player X

I was trying to get QT Player 7 Pro on but QT Player 7 won't install on my Macbook Pro, which uses 10.6 and I deleted QTPX for it. Is there any way I can reinstall it without any install disc?

Is there any way I can reinstall it without any install disc?
Yes, but only if you have a copy of the same QT X Player version available on a different drive. Simply copy the app back to your platform's "Application" folder.

How do I recover QuickTime Player X after I accidentally deleted it?

After accidentally deleting QuickTime Player X, I can't seem to recover it at all. Right now I'm resorting to QuickTime 7, but I can't do screen recordings without Quicktime X. I have searched everywhere on how to recover it, Google, wikipedia, YouTube.....etc. to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas?
