How do I hide Quicktime Pro registration code?

I have several Windows terminals in my workplace waiting room which I provide for customers to access multimedia content. I want to have Quicktime Pro on these machines, but after I enter in my Quicktime Pro serial number, there is nothing stopping somebody from clicking Edit > Preferences > Register, and then doing a Copy & Paste of my registration code and emailing to themselves!
Is there anyway to hide my registration code?  Why do Apple even bother making users pay for this software, when they make it so easy to compromise?

if you have lostthe reg key, the only way to have QTP is to purchase it again.

  • Quicktime Pro registration code

    Awhile back I purchased the quicktime pro registration code, installed it and it worked fine. With the latest release of Quicktime I found I could no longer play my earlier .mov files so I uninstalled the that version of QT but took care to copy down and double check my quicktime pro registration code before I did (the warning screen was a big help there).
    I installed Quicktime 6.5.2 and now I can't put the registration code in for QT Pro. I get the message that my registration code and registered to aren't right. I have tried it with and without caps and the dashes. I have tried only my first name or last and reversed the order. I even tryed my itunes ID as the registered to but nothing works.
    Is it possible that I am using a version of QT that predates my registration code? I have had QT pro for at least 6 months.
    If they fixed the problems with the latest release of QT I would try that but I won't bother until it works correctly. Contacting Apple is tricky. They don't seem to want to interface with customers in any way shape or form. Its all FAQ and discussion groups.
    Anyone have to reinput registration codes on QT that could offer me some insight?

    Pro keys have always worked in any release of the version for which you purchased it. Also, you should have backward compatibility with any earlier formats. I have been using QT since version 2.5 and later versions have always played formats introduced in earlier versions.
    In short, there is something about your system (a corrupt file or something) that is interferring with QT. You may need to completely purge yoiur system of all parts of earlier installations of QT and staart over. Being primarily a Mac person I can't tell you how to do that. But you seem to need to do that, as these issues of non-compatibility with earlier formats or Keys are just not correct. If that were a general problem for the Windows version I am sure a large number of people would have posted the problem here in the Windows forum.

  • I lost my quicktime pro registration code

    I already bought a quicktime 7 pro registration code twice.
    My hard drive just crashed and I lost everything, including my registration code for quicktime 7 pro.
    In the online store where you buy that code, you can login with your name and password, and you can see a history of your purchases, but only of the last 18 months.My purchase is a couple months older so I can't see it in my history.

    Sorry, but Apple can no longer provide codes purchased more than 18 months ago. If you don't have a backup of either the email containing the code or the QuickTime preference files, then you'll have to purchase a key yet again, or find a third-party product that can do what you need.
    Regards.

  • HT3678 How do I retrieve my Quicktime Pro registration code?

    I purchased Quicktime Pro a few years back, before Quicktime X replaced it on my computer. After tinkering with it I realized at that time that I didn't really needed it - until today. Now, I'm looking on my computer, now updated to 10.7, and it seems that it doesn't exist. I tried to re-install Quicktime 7 and enter the code to make it Pro, but 2 things happened:
    It says I can't install 7 with X installed. So, simple enough - I think uninstalling X will allow me to install 7, right?
    I can't find the code. Does anyone know where I'd go online to find my purchase history? There was no App store back then, and I do have the same Apple ID as before. I just don't know where to go, and if that's not possible, who do I contact?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Heh, besides the phone and calling, I don't the info is there anymore.
    I just checked, the purchase history only goes back 18 months.
    Back in the old days, heh, they did the QT Pro unlock key via email, would of been from "order_acknowledgment", any chance you have old email squirreled away somewhere?
    I think I ended up buying it twice, like you, couldn't find the original email/key and bought it again in 2009, but kept that email around. It late at night, was in a rush and wasn't sure it could be recovered.
    Odd about the X and 7 giving that message, I've had both installed on the machine since X came out.
    Good luck but I doubt if the info is "on line" anymore, you'll have to give them a ring.

  • Why won't system preferences let me enter Quicktime pro registration code?

    Hi
    Please help!!!
    I recently purchased the new iMac and purchased the Quicktime Pro so that I can convert some files.  I have followed all the instructions on how to enter the registration key via system preferences but I do not have a Quicktime icon there.  Quicktime itself has no function on how to enter the registration key either.
    please help
    Thanks
    Michelle

    Make sure you're entering in _both_ the user name and key code _exactly_ as in the email Apple sent you. Any error in either, including leaving off a salutation (for instance, if the email says "Mr. John Smith") will cause the registration to error. An organization name should not be entered unless there was one on the original registration email.
    Also make sure you have a key for the correct platform (Windows or Mac). QuickTime keys are not cross-platform.
    Hope this helps.

  • Recovering Quicktime Pro registration code

    My computer crashed a couple months ago, and the replacement does not come with QT Pro, which I had bought years ago. I have lost my registration code, is there a way to recover it using my apple id? It seems to me that I shouldn't have to pay for it again if my computer crashed. Thanks!

    Yes, absolutely it does. There is no QuickTime X Pro, at least not yet and Apple's not made any mention of one. QuickTime 7 Player can be installed for use with a Pro key to preserve those Pro features. If you're upgrading from Leopard and have QT 7 Pro already, the Player will be automatically moved to the Applications/Utilities folder and your Pro key carried across, or it can be installed separately.

  • Quicktime Pro Registration Code Problems

    Hello,
    I'm new here and also couldn't find the "Post New Topic" button. Thank goodness somebody started a thread about it and had a link.
    Anyhoo,
    I just downloaded Quicktime Pro 7 for Windows and received the registration code, followed the directions, copied and pasted the registration code and it seems to be invalid.
    What's my next step?
    Thank you,

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply. Actually, I just figured it out. It was something ridiculously simple which is what I thought and that was what was driving me nuts.
    When I tried to register the product, I used my internet handle like I always do and since I have my real name hooked up to an Apple account through ITunes, it wasn't the registration code they didn't recognize, it was my name. It just popped into my head to try that.
    Good thing too, because Quicktime Tech support has bankers hours and are not available on the weekends.
    Thanks for the reply.

  • Please help! Can not retrieve Quicktime Pro registration code!!!

    I purchase Quictime Pro online many months ago and recently re-formatted my PowerBook. I am having trouble registering again. I have explored the Apple sites and tried to log in to my account to retrieve the number but the card I used to buy it was a Laser card (I'm in Ireland) but my account is presently set up to a Visa card. I tried setting it up again with the Laser card but it wouldn't accept it.
    Is there some way of finding the number? I can answer any security questions regarding my account to verify I bought it. I even have the order number from when I ordered it!
    Can anybody help?
    Any information would be sooo appreciated. I'd hate to pay for it again.

    Did you try logging into the Apple Store where you bought Pro? You should see a link to review your account. Clicking that should bring up a screen to enter your Apple ID and Password. After entering those items you should see a link to Software Downloads that will show your registration name and key. You will need to use those items exactly as listed, so it is best to copy and paste them into the registraition page of QT preferences in the Player Edit menu.
