I cannot install Quicktime at all.

Since the update of quicktime did not install by itself from the Software update, I downloaded it manually and tried installing it. Works fine throughout most of the install, but around 98 - 99% the install freezes and a couple of minutes after takes me to the last step of the installation and says "Installation failed, please try again"
I tried almost everything to fix this problem, and nothing seems to work (deleted components the old QT etc.), could someone please help me? Cheers in advance.
p.s because I don't have a quicktime at all (because im unable to install the older quicktime either no because of the same problem) I cant access iMovie, Skype etc. Please Help (i'm os x 10.4.11 btw)

All Macs come w/2 System DVDs and the OS preinstalled - Install disc 1 and Install disc 2. Therefore, I strongly suggest that you locate your system DVDs as Install disc 1 is used for troubleshooting. Without these DVDs all you really have is a glorified doorstop when something goes wrong.
Click on the link in my original post as it will tell you all you need to know to perform an A&I.
You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.
If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number. Here's a list of links to all of those -

Cannot Install QuickTime at all

I have a vicious round-robin going. I bout an iPod Nano. To load iTune, you need to install Quicktime 7. I used to have Quicktime until something got corrupted and I had to manually uninstall Quicktime (QT did not have an Uninstaller). When I attempt to install QT, it says that it cannot install because I have to remove an old copy of QT. I removed Quicktuime, there is no Apple folder anywhere onmy computer, and I removed all references to APPLE in my registry. I bought Norton Utilities to clean my registry and remove anything that points nowhere. There is no QT on my computer. Meanwhile, Apple offer no support for this situation - all it tells you is to contact your Tech Support Gorup. That is not support - it is avoidance. Can anyone help on how to get around this?

Okay ... go back into your CleanUp. *(Don't remove anything this time.* We're having a look.)
At the top of the CleanUp window, are there any entries without a program name? In particular, we're looking for lines in CleanUp that start with (All Users) and have no name of a program, but then give a version number in square brackets.
Do you see any of those? If so, what version numbers do they have? Precise version numbers please. (When reporting back with the version numbers, best not to include the square brackets ... the forum software automatically converts anything inside square brackets into a hyperlink. Harmless, but disconcerting if you aren't expecting it.)
(We're checking on the version numbers for lines lacking a name of a program, because if a .msi file is damaged enough, the name for it won't show up in CleanUp even though there will be an entry in the list of programs in CleanUp.)

Cannot install apps at all in app store. iPhone 4 says there is a billing issue and wants my credit card secruity code which when I enter, it claims it's an invalid code...

Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.
And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

Cannot install Quicktime

I've had an enforced upgrade (due to iPhone) go bad on me!
I've upgraded to iTunes 8.1.1 - as suggested to match my new iPhone. However, I can't install Quicktime in order to run it! It gets to the point where it's installing files (around 12%) and then fails suddenly - with the following messages:
"There were errors installing the software"
"Please try installing again"
I've even tried with older versions of Quicktime (from 7.3.1 upwards) but still, no dice.
I've reset PRAM, deleted and reinstalled itunes, deleted all my old quicktime files. No joy.
Any help would be most appreciated, thanks in advance!

Welcome to the forums!
deleted all my old quicktime files
Bad move, as it is an integrated part of the OS.
Try running the 10.4.11 COMBO installer again.
Don't forget to use the Combo Updater, and to download the correct version for your Mac (PPC or Intel):
http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_4_11_Combo_Update__Intel
http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_4_11_Combo_Update__PPC)
Then update Quicktime to version 7.6

Cannot install quicktime due to newer version already installed

I'm in desperate need of help. I've been trying to install Itunes for the last 4 nights but QUICKTIME is messing it up. I keep getting the error that a newer version of QUICKTIME is already installed and the installation can't continue.
I've been scouring the internet for hours over several nights to find a solution without luck.
There is no entry in the Programs uninstaller for Quicktime.
I've scoured all my HDs for quicktime and removed all entries
I've run several reg cleaners and regedit to clean out any reference to Quicktime
I've used the 'how to uninstall quicktime' support page and used the MS install cleanup utility, cleaned out temp files, used JV Powertools to clean out Quicktime.
I've used both the standalone installer and the Itunes installer
I've tried using safemode to install but the installer doesn't work in safe mode
I've tried uninstalling several codecs in the chance that they are somehow effecting this
I'm at the end of my rope and both me and the internet appear to be out of ideas. Of course, I need to get Quicktime on to use Itunes and my Itouch.
I'm running a fully updated Vista install. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am having the same problem. I am using Windows XP on an HP Media Center PC m7167c. I have tried everything to fix the issue. Nothing works. HEY APPLE, Can you please fix your QuickTime installer to override the "Newer Version Already Installed" message when there is no QuickTime installed. This problem has been going on for over a year. Please provide an easy alternative way to FORCE INSTALL QUICKTIME. Thanks

Cannot install QuickTime 7 and i tunes

I have read suggestions about logging out users, restarting, and making sure my firewall is ok. Still get registry error and missing key messages. Now I cannot access itunes because it needs QT and I cannot install it! Frustrated!!!

First, before you proceed you should have a valid backup of any tracks you've purchased from the iTunes Store or that would otherwise be difficult to replace, just in case something goes more seriously wrong with your system.
As to the problem, the steps on this Apple KnowledgeBase article may help:
Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime software in Windows
If you continue to have problems with the 1905 error blocking uninstallation, I ran across this suggestion on another web site and it might help you (no guarantees since I haven't tried it myself):
Click the Start" button
Select the Run command
Type the following:
regsvr32 /u QtoControl.dll
You should see a small dialog box confirming that it succeeded.
Then follow the instructions at the above web page to completely uninstall iTunes and QuickTime. Then see if you can reinstall iTunes and get it to work.
Hope this helps.

Cannot install QuickTime. Error -3.

Hi. I downloaded the itunes + quicktime installer (the latest version), and e veyrthing goes smooth and well until i hit the Quicktime installation part. First, an error pops up...
somethin along the lines of..
"Error applying transforms. Verify that the specified transform paths are valid. C:\windows\installer\{c21d5524-a970-42fa-ac8a-59b8c7cdca31}\1042.MST"
then when i push okay, the installation continues and finishes. when i try to start itunes, error pops up and says that it cannot find quicktime.
the previous times i tried to install itunes+quicktime, i got error at the quicktime installation section error -3.
after i installed ituns and quicktime (although it doesn't work), i ran QT 7.1 standalone installer.
agian this error pops up
"Error applying transforms. Verify that the specified transform paths are valid. C:\windows\installer\{c21d5524-a970-42fa-ac8a-59b8c7cdca31}\1042.MST"
i don't understand. my itunes worked fine yesterday, and today it doesn't. b4 i got this
"Error applying transforms. Verify that the specified transform paths are valid. C:\windows\installer\{c21d5524-a970-42fa-ac8a-59b8c7cdca31}\1042.MST"
error, i would usulay get the ERROR -3. please help me, i need itunes. i need music!!! thank you i know u'll fix my problem!

Error applying transforms. Verify that the specified transform paths are valid. C:\windows\installer\{c21d5524-a970-42fa-ac8a-59b8c7cdca31}\1042.MST
let's try enlisting some additional technical help with this one.
let's try getting a installer log to someone who can interpret installer logs.
Start menu -> Run... In the text field of the dialog that comes up, type in "cmd" and hit return.
In the command prompt dialog that comes up, find the iTunes installer on your desktop and drag it to this window. Then on the same line type in a space and then the following:
/Verbose"c:\log.txt" /V"ENABLE_QTLOGGING=TRUE"
There is no space between the e in Verbose and the double quote ("). There is no space between the V"Enable...
Hit return.
The installer will create two log files:
C:\log.txt and C:\qt.log
Find those files and send them to this email address Put the URL to this discussion thread into the email, so that the person who gets it has some context. Let them know the version of itunes you’re trying to install, too … in general, give as much info as you can.

HT5770 Cannot install QuickTime 7.x security update and why does the file say 'unknown publisher'?

I downloaded QuickTime 7.x security update (recommended by my VP), but I cannot run. I am getting the message 'Unknown Publisher', but when I click run, nothing happens?

Hello,
Seems someone from Apple corrected the problem.
I just downloaded a new version, again, due to upgrade to a larger HDD, and the new installer does have Apple name identified.
So try it again.
Good luck.

Cannot install ITunes at all

When i try to install ITunes. The install process starts and then this error shows up.
"Error applying transforms. Verify that the specified transforn paths are valid.
C:\WINDOWS\Installer\{59C4F14F-7590-45FC-BE9F-A67AB3590709}\1033.MST "
what can i do to install ITunes.

Well, maybe looking at all the windows installers tricks will help...good luck, as I said we never got a clear answer on this from other people who ran into it.
It's a Windows installer message, though, and that is a Microsoft product. So I'd start with any microsoft advice you can find on it. Here's some starting places:

Cannot install Quicktime Pro on Vista-64 bit machine

Quicktime 7 appears to be properly installed, plays video etc but there is no QT icon in the Control Panel, as required to open QT Pro in a Windows system. I have deleted and reinstalled QT 7, followed (twice) the detailed instructions in "General Installation Troubleshooting", but still no icon. Apple will not refund the price of a downloaded purchase. Any clues to how to make it work?

Quicktime may not come in 64-bit version the way that iTunes is, but that doesn't mean it isn't supported on Vista Ultimate 64-bit.
