How do I delete my old version of Quicktime?

Today I tried to update my version of iTunes, but when I went to do it it said I couldn't because it couldn't delete my old version of Quicktime, preventing it from installing the new Quicktime, and therefore I couldn't install the new version of iTunes. I tried Add or Remove programs, but that didn't work either. Any advice?

Try this I was having the same problem.

  • How do I delete an old version of card star when there is no icon on the desktop?

    I received a notice at the App Store that an update for Cardstar was available.   This is on my Gen 1 iPad running iOS 6.1.3.  I clicked the upgrade button but the progress bar never indicated progress.  Cardstar is listed in Settings, but there is no icon on the desktop.  I speculate that during an Cloud synch with my iPhone, that this alias now shows up on the iPad.  I tried shutting down.  Can't find any way to delete from Settings.  On the App Store it shows up as active on my list of needed updates.  There, the Cardstar icon shows the progress bar with no progress and the "Installing" button is grayed out.  I am sure that  I didnt install it on any of my devices other than my iPhone. 

    Thanks.  You are right...by the serial number it is a Gen 2.  There seems to be a solution to my problem on the Cardstar website. I will try that.
    Thanks again.

  • Removing an old version of Quicktime

    I am trying to install the latest version of Quicktime. However, I get a message towards the end of the installation validation process saing error 2803 followed by a message that says 'unable to uninstall an older version of Quicktime'
    I have tried using control pannel/remove programs....but when I click on Quicktime, nothing happens.
    Help...how do I install the old version of Quicktime?
    Thanks

    I have tried using control pannel/remove programs....but when I click on Quicktime, nothing happens.
    let's try the following procedure with that one.
    Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. then use it to clear any existing QuickTime installation configuration information from your PC:
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    Next, we’ll manually remove leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
    7. Restart your computer.
    now try another QuickTime install. does it go through properly this time?

  • How do I delete an old Apple ID one my IPAD

    How do you delete an old Apple ID Password on my IPAD #1 and replace it with a new apple ID?

    AnaMusic and King Penquin, this is the first such inquiry I have made for Apple help. I appreciate the help. You folks are very nice. I now have my I phone where it will not let me log in to use it as I upgraded to the latest version of the operating system tonight. That was a mistake on my part.
    Thanks very much.

  • How do i delete an old iCloud account from phone when I forget my password and I'm not able to reset it because my security questions do not match?! Help!! Currently not able to update any apps or icloud info

    How do i delete an old iCloud account from phone when I forget my password and I'm not able to reset it because my security questions do not match?! Help!! Currently not able to update any apps or icloud info...

    If your device is signed into an old ID of yours that is an earlier version of the ID you want to sign in with, do the following:
    If you are using iMessage and FaceTime, make sure you are signed into these services with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • How can I delete an old iCloud account for which I do not remember the password?  The email address linked to that account is no longer active.

    The email linked to that account is no longer active.  How can I delete this old account and use a new one?

    Although your profile says you're running iOS 5.1.1 it sounds like you're running iOS 7 (otherwise you would not need your password to delete the old account).  Assuming that's true, and your iCloud ID has changed but you need to delete the old account in order to change to your new one, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    How can I activate an old version of Photoshop that I've loaded on my new tablet? The web activation doesn't work, and when I call the number, it says it's not being used anymore. Meanwhile, I'm down to 13 days till it stops working due to not being activated. HELP?  I really need to continue using this product for my home business.It works fine not activated but the threat is that it will stop working in 13 more days if I don't get it activated, and none of the activation methods they list seem to work.

    The new serial number is to the right of your chosen download.

  • How can I delete an old file from my library on iTunes

    Occasionally I have to replace PDF manuals with ones that have been updated.  But after I sync the new file the old one remains on my Mac itunes library.  How can I delete the old file?  So far all I do is deselect the old file but it's still there.  Sooner or later there will be more old files then current ones making it hard to manage.
    Thanks in advance.

    You can do this with or without the iPad connected to your Mac.
    Launch iTunes on the Mac. Click on Books under the Library heading. Click on the PDFs. Then click on the PDF that you want to delete in order to select it, and go to Edit>Delete and follow the on screen prompts.
    if you are using iTunes 11 and do not have the sidebar enabled, and wish to do so, go to View>Show sidebar or use the keyboard shortcut OPTION+Command+S.
    If you do not want to enable the sidebar, the library items can be accessed in the button in the upper left corner of the iTunes window.

  • TS1702 How do I delete an old Apple ID?

    When I attempt to update my Apps the password window pops up but my Apple ID displays a discontinued email adresss no longer in use. I've reset, updated and signed off of my Apple ID but nothing changes and the old email address keeps popping up.  How do i delete the old address permanently?

    ALL purchases are permanently associated with whatever Apple ID was used to originally obtain them.  Apps can not be updated without knowledge of that ID and, more importantly, its password.
    Apple IDs can not be merged and purchases can not be transferred from one ID to another.

    Hi.
    I had a similar problem myself. This is what helped me.
    I went to the App store app, scrolled to the bottom, logged out of the account, re logged in with my Apple ID.  Then went back to app updates. Once I put in my ID password all was fine.
