I CAN'T GET RID OF QUICK TIME 6.5 ON A WINDOWS XP/HOME COMPUTER

I have a Mac at work with a T-4 trunk line so I sometimes use QT. But, since my genealogy program only works with Windows, I have a Win XP/Home at home using dial-up. As soon as I bought this computer, I downloaded QT 6.5 not realizing that I couldn't use it. I understand there are security flaws and I want to remove it.
Under Add or Remove Programs, there is no mention of Quick Time or Apple. I downloaded Windows Install Clean Up and neither QT nor Apple is listed. When I go to Start>All Programs>Quick Time, there are 4 options: 1). QT Player, 2). QT Read Me, 3). QT Updater and 4). Picture Viewer. The only place I can find Quick Time is in my Control Panel between Program Updates and Regional Language Options. There is the QT icon.
I can't believe that Apple would not include an un-installer. Rather than spend 4+ hours downloading a newer update (and not sure if it would un-install the older version) and not being able to use it anyway, I just want to get QT 6.5 off my Windows computer.
Thank you

Hello thehordepvp, type %appdata% in Run dialog box and delete the Mix Dj folder if exist.
then try the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/searchreset/ SearchReset add-on], the add-on backs up and then resets your search preferences and home page to their default values, and then uninstalls itself.
thank you

    I strongly recommend that you install iTunes to the default C: paths. You can change the perferences to keep the actual music files on your D: partition.

  • How can I get rid of firefox, and the download everytime i go to home page

    Firfox Setup Stub 32.0 exe, automatically downloads itself every time I go to the my home page. Why? I don't use firefox, I like Chrome. I have downloaded FF before, just to try to get rid of the annoying download page

    Have you set the Firefox download page as the home page in Chrome? It can happen by accident. You should be able to set it back to the default in the Chrome settings. Here's how to set the home page in Chrome: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95314?hl=en
    Btw, if you've stopped using Firefox a while ago, it has gotten much faster and more lightweight recently. You might want to give it another try.

  • Can I get rid of duplicate or empty folders in contacts without using a computer?

    Is there a way to get rid of duplicate folders and empty folders in contacts without using a computer?

    If you don't have iTunes you will need to buy the song from the iTunes store and download it that way. If it is a custom track you may be out of luck.  The only way to get a song on your device without iTunes involves jailbreaking it. 
    iOS is set up to prevent people from emailing each other songs, videos, movies, books, etc. This is how Apple got their contracts with the content providers by promising that they would do what ever it takes to prevent people from sharing content that they didn't pay for.

  • How can I get a boot-disk for a Compaq P2500 laptop Windows XP Home Edition?

    I'm already in another forum with a eerily similar question, but that's for the HP Media Center Pavilion m8000e desktop system (Windows Vista Home Premium) I was just given; I've ordered a new hard drive for that. I assume the directions to create a boot disk with the *.iso file (using Imgburn) is going to work; I have the 25-digit code for that.
    This question here now is for my wife's older Compaq P2500 2596US laptop running Windows XP Home Edition. This too needs a new hard drive, but I also am missing the boot disc for this; I do have the 25-digit product code.
    How can I get a boot disk for this laptop? I tried the Ubuntu method outlined in a few posts; geez, what a headache ... never could get it managed. Does HP not make any boot disks available? Microsoft told me to check with HP.
    I can furnish the product code; model #; serial# ... gee, maybe the oroginal receipt is even laying around somewhere ...
    I need a boot disk to get the new hard drive up on board (if I end up ordering that).
    Thanks for any help!

  • Can't get rid of a time event on iCal; it's there on everyday

    Made some schedules for the month but when I go to print, there's this "8:00PM" time on everyday. I don't know where that came from and I can't figure out how to eliminate it.
    It also shows up on a NEW calendar too! (It shows only when printing in all instances)
    It even shows up when I share calendar and it's opened up by someone else.
    Can anyone please help?
    Thank you!

    You're welcome.

  • How can I get an HD Quick Time  file to play on a PC?

    I recently finished an HD program. It looks beautiful when played from a QT file on my MacBook pro and projected. My client has a PC (Windows XP). He couldn't get the QT file to play. After updating to QT7.3, he was only able to get the audio. He is able to get an Standard Def QT of the same program to play. So many of my clients use computers to give their presentations. At this point, it really makes more sense for them play them from QT files versus DVDs which are not only unreliable but have to be downconverted to Standard Def. Any suggestions appreciated!

    That's the problem with Windows machines, just not compatible with the rest of the world.
    Most PCs, even with QT installed, have issues viewing the INDUSTRY STANDARD H.264. There are other codecs that work...that you have to buy, but they work. Sheer Codecs by BitJaz.

    What is "WebWatch" and how can I get rid of it? It just showed up on my home computer. It pops up every few minutes while I'm on line and drives me crazy whem I'm trying to work or just read. This is what it looks like. It's in a small box in the middle of the screen with grey over the rest of the screen. I can't do anything until I "x" it away.

  • How can I get rid of "myV9" that suddenly appeared the other day when I started Firefox?

    Suddenly there was a portal site named "myv9" or "V9" on the screen when I started Firefox the other day. It contains a lot of icons for programs like Facebook, Google and so on. Until now I have had only Google as start page from Firefox. Of course I can click on the Google icon to get there, but it is the only site that I want to use of all these. Nearly all the other icons (except Facebook and some others) lead to specific US sites that I never visit (for example the weather forecast for North America) , because I live in Sweden. How can I get rid of "myv9"?
    Even if it doesn´t harm my computer, I am afraid that it will slow it down, and, besides, it needs an extra click to get to Google.

  • Firefox is starting in the 32 bit mode it says Firefox*32.. How can i get rid of this?

    Firefox is starting in the 32 bit mode it says Firefox*32.. How can i get rid of this? Whenever i close Firefox and restart my computer it goes back to normal.There is also another problem associated with this which is that whenever Firefox is in 32 bit mod I listen to music the sound always comes unclear like clogged up.When i restart my computer its not 32 bit anymore the sound gets back to normal.I am using Windows 7.

    Hi,
    If 32-bit Firefox was installed, it will be always listed as such. If both 32-bit and 64-bit were installed, please make sure to start the correct one. Usually the 32-bit would be installed in '''Computer''' > '''?:\Program Files (x86)''' > '''Mozilla Firefox''', and the 64-bit in '''Computer''' > '''?:\Program Files'''. You can also type '''about:''' in the location bar and look in '''Build identifier:'''

  • Can't get rid of a tab

    We can't get rid of the last beginning tab at a website.

    I am not sure I understand the your description of the problem.
    Possibly the issue is the fact that you are always left with one tab and can not get rid of the last tab in a Firefox Window. That is now the expected behaviour. It is not possible to easily disable tabbed browsing.
    As ever Firefox is highly customisable and addons have been developed to change this behaviour so that Firefox is more like older versions
    * for instance https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hide-tab-bar-with-one-tab
    If that is not your problem please try to give more details.
