Help!! Accidentally Uninstalled Quicktime 10.1

HELP!!! I accidentally uninstalled Quicktime 10.1 on Mac OS X Lion. Please help me reinstall it!!!

Quicktime X is a great little piece of software. However, Quicktime X is very finicky on which codec/file format it can decode/play.
Luckily, there are DOZENS of alternative video/media players and extensions available for the Mac. Some of them are even FREE. Some of the better FREE ones include...
PERIAN (quicktime extension)

QUICKTIME 7.6.6

I accidentally uninstalled QuickTime, and now iTunes won't open.What do i do?

I was uninstalling some programs on my laptop since it has too much. I uninstalled QuickTime, not knowing it was needed to open iTunes. So, now, I downloaded QuickTime so that i can reinstall it. However, it said that it's "not a valid Win32 application." Before that, I tried to open my iTunes, but it said that it needed to be uninstalled and reinstalled. So, i did just that. I saw an old itunes setup in one of my folders. However, it was an old version, so it won't open. So now, as i'm typing this, i'm downloading the latest itunes in hopes of getting it right. What should i do? Can anyone help me?

You can install it again from mac OS dvd, there's a folder named "optional installs" or "additional installs"with a installer in there, simply pen that installer and select from the list QuickTime and that's all

Accidentally uninstalled QuickTime, Itunes wont work

I accidentally uninstalled Quick Time and now Itunes will not work. I tried re-installing Itunes and quick time but I would get an error saying old version of quick time could not be removed. I read a guide that said to remove itunes and I did and then says to remove quicktime when I try to remove quick time from program files it says: cannot delete QuickTimecheck.ocx it is being used by another person or program, please close any programs that may be using that program and try again. All I have open is this web page open and the program files containing Quicktime, Does anyone have any idea of how to fix this?

QuickTimecheck.ocx
That's a web browser plug-in, so I'd try closing your web browsers too. If you still can't remove the folder, restart the PC, don't open any applications whatsoever, and then try the deletion again.
If still no luck, post back and let us know if you're still getting the same error message when you're doing the deletion, or if you're getting a different error message now.

Accidentally Uninstalled QuickTime

PLEASE HELP...I uninstalled QuickTime recently not realizing iTunes requires it. I have tried downloading QT by itself and as part of iTunes again but they don't seem to be in sync. I see a QT folder in "My Programs" but iTunes still won't run. What do I do to repair this? Do I have to uninstall itunes now? Will I lose everything?!?!? Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Try the standalone QuickTime installer.
If that doesn't help, post back with the exact error message(s) and we'll try to help further.
Good luck.

I accidentally uninstalled quicktime. How do i get it back?

The other day I completly removed QuickTime from my computer by mistake. I went to the apple website to try and download it but there is no link for a .dmg. Instead there is a message that says "Use Software Update to keep QuickTime up to date on your Mac". Does anyone know how I can get QuickTime back?

If you have a package unpacker such as Pacifist, and you kept your Lion install download package, you can open this in Pacifist and explore your way to the quicktime installer package. I did this recently as QTX was giving me stuttering problems in playing back mpegs. Reinstalling didn't solve that problem, but at least I now know how to get it back!

As long as you use a recent version of Pacifist it works fine.

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.
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".

Can't uninstall Quicktime (Error 2330)

I would be eternally grateful to anyone who can help me uninstall Quicktime, so that I can install iTunes. I've googled the error, but not yet found a solution that works. Every time I try to uninstall it, I get error 2330. I've tried add/remove programs, CCleaner, etc.
Please, please help me if you can!

I had same problem today. I still haven't been able to uninstall quicktime but was able to get around it by renaming quicktime. After renaming quicktime I downloaded the new version of itunes (8) without a problem and my new ipod nano now works fine.

HELP cannot install itunes, uninstall itunes or uninstall quicktime

Hello - Went to upgrade my orig ver of itunes ver 6.0 to the video version to grab some music videos, and that is when all went to ****.
Got an error message that itunes was unable to install to my PC. PC is p4 running winXP sp2/3.
Error code: -3
Went to uninstall itunes, and got another error message that itunes was unable to complete the task with NO error code.
Also went to uninstall quicktime, and apparently the uninstall is not on my computer. I reinstalled quicktime, which was successful, but after rebooting and then trying to uninstall quicktime again, i got same error message quicktime uninstall cannot be found, quicktime cannot be uninstalled.
I did manage to get itunes successfully uninstalled.
After reboot and clearing out temp files and cache then again rebooting, then attempting to reinstall itunes VER 6.0 just the plain version for windows, NOT the video version, i again got error message that itunes was unable to install on my PC.
PLEASE HELP.
i cannot seem to load in a successful ver of itunes to listen to music, nor uninstall/install quicktime.
FYI -
Quicktime will not work when opened through itunes and through start menu, but will work when opened in the program and actually clicking on the .exe button.
pls help! i just want regular ver of itunes without video now, just want to listen to music what i bought, thnx

YES it is a Windows 98 based software, since i was unable to find older ver of Quicktime, i used what i had.
Incidentally, i figured out that when i went to install the Video ver of itunes, the ver 6.0 did not completely uninstall, some files were somehow corrupted.
There is a round about fix located on the windows tech support section which deleted previous Windows installer programs that in turn deletes older versions of programs, you pick from a list that the program detects, and it will delete all older versions.
Here is the link, if you know anyone that needs it..
it fixed my PC, after using this program i was able to successfully install 1st- the standalone version of quicktime, then itunes without incident.

Dell Windows XP

Thank you so much for your response. Whew that took a good 2 hours. I finally got it fixed. After the failed attempts to uninstall quicktime I found this:
*1. Go to C:\Program Files, then delete the entire QuickTime folder.*
*2. Click Start - Find/Search - All Files And Folders, select the hard drive ( C: ) to look in, type in QuickTime, then click Find/Search. when the list of files appear, right-click on and delete all the ones that you confirm are associated with QuickTime.*
*3. Click Start - Run, type in REGEDIT, then click OK. Click the + in:*
HKEYLOCALMACHINE
Software
*In the Software sub-menu, right-click directly on the Apple Computer entry, then click Delete - Yes.*
*(Note: If you click the + in the "Apple Computer" entry, you'll see "QuickTime" listed there)*
Then I tried uninstalling again and it worked. Then I installed an earlier quicktime and took out itunes and installed itunes 7.4. Everything works fine now. Thanks again though!!

HELP! - can't uninstall Quicktime!! Error - 0x80040707 !!

I can't uninstall quicktime and get the following error -
Error 0x80040707 Description DLL function call crashed QTInstallCode.QuickTimeUnInstallProc
Can anyone help??

hiya!
okay, in this context the 0x80040707 (citing the QuickTimeUnInstallProc) usually indicates that the installation configuration information for the QT on your PC has been corrupted.
download and install the Windows Installer Cleanup utility, and use it to clear away any existing QuickTime installation configuration information:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
... and then use the QuickTime component of the complete uninstall instructions on the following document as a guide for manual removal of left-over QT program files and folders:
Trouble installing iPod, iTunes, or QuickTime software in Windows
once we've got the old QT scraped out of there, we'll try another standalone QT 7.0.4 install, taking a few additional explicit precautions.
download and save a copy of the standalone QT installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off all antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
Quicktime 7.0.4 Standalone Installer
does that install go through okay?
if it does go through okay, does your itunes launch again?
love, b

I can't install / uninstall Quicktime either! Please help

I've read all the posts on this subject and none of the advice has cured my problem. When I try to run the latest Quicktime install program (having uninstalled Quicktime earlier versions??) I have only 2 options - either Repair or Remove. So Quicktime still exists somewhere on my system? Both the options give the same result - a warning dialog with the following message. "The installer has encounted an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package The error code is 2356." Can someone help?

Thanks for the quick reply but I had tried all that already. To be sure though I just checked again. Windows Install cleanup reports no quicktime installation, there is no Quicktime folder in the C:\program files folder and the files are not present in the C:\Windows\system32 folder.
I also searched the entire PC and the files are not there at all. I also checked the QuickTimeInstallerF30.log located in my profile local settings\temp folder it shows the following:-
=== Logging started: 4/7/2007 23:35:25 ===
Executing: "C:\WINDOWS\system32\msiexec.exe" /i "{5E863175-E85D-44A6-8968-82507D34AE7F}"
Returned: 1603
Also the log file MSIf6fea.LOG in the same folder shows:-
The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2356. The arguments are: QuickTime.cab, ,
=== Logging stopped: 07/04/2007 23:34:16 ===
I'm logged in as the administrator too.
Error message is still the same! The other point to note is that after the error message the install program then looks as though it reverses it first few steps that were completed before the error message.

NEED HELP: Bass disappears after accidentally uninstalling Ope

I am running an X-Fi Platinum Fatalty card with a 5. THX certified speaker system. I was trying to clear out space on my hard dri've and I accidentally uninstalled OpenAL since it wasn't marked as part of the Creative software package. I system restored and the problem wasn't fixed. So, I ran a repair operation using the original disk. Still no bass. I then did a complete uninstall/reinstall using a driver cleaner to make sure it was completely uninstalled before reinstalling the drivers and software. Still no bass, but now the highs are much too loud. Then, installed latest drivers from Creative. I can hear the lows trying to go through the subwoofer, but they just don't make it. ?I turned on the THX Bass redirecting but it still took turning on the 5dB boost just to get the sub to play the lows in my music. Also, with some songs that used to have a lot of bass the bass is no longer there. But for some reason other songs have retained their bass sounds. I am pretty sure this has something to do with the THX settings for the card but I just cannot get my system to sound the way it did before I uninstalled OpenAL. Someone please help me.Message Edited by PawWriter on 07-23-200709:04 PM

I don't know if this helps, but I've figured out something concerning the constant hard drive access in the IDE. It seems to be constantly updating a large number of .BTD, .BTX, and .BTB files in my user directory: \.jstudio\Ent81\var\cache\mdrstorage\org-netbeans\java\0.70\; as well as master.btd and master.btx in \.jstudio\Ent81\var\cache\mdrstorage\org-netbeans\java\. The files have long names that somewhat resemble registry keys, followed by what looks like a file name (example: f25937eeba6ba265b3364690828492863ee19a278dk16004jrelibrtjar.btd).
The update process seems to be running constantly--the file Modify dates are repeatedly updated to the current time while the IDE is open and thrashing the disk.
Does anyone know what this is or most importantly, how to stop it? I have to get the IDE back in working order on this particular machine, and reinstalling has failed to help.
