  • Cannot open nor remove quicktime from my computer

    Cannot open nor remove Quicktime from my computer.
    Quicxktime is installed but when I try to open a mp3 file using quicktime my Windows installer tells me that Quicktime cannot be found.

    Windows installer tells me that Quicktime cannot be found.
    Is that the QuickTime.msi that can't be found, robert?
    If so, unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing QuickTime again. Does the install go through properly? If so, does your QuickTime Player launch now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

  • I accidentally deleted QuickTime from my computer. Then I did a system restore and retrieved it. Now Itunes can't find QuickTime and will not open. Is there a fix for this without my Ipod?

    I accidently deleted QuickTime from my computer. Then I did a system restore and retrieved the program. Now Itunes can't find QuickTime and will not open.Is there a eazy fix for this without using my Ipod? Ihave 6K songs in Itunes that I can't get to.
    Thank You

    Hmmm. There's a couple of things that might be going on with that one.
    Let's try an uninstall and reinstall of QuickTime first.
    If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel. Select "QuickTime", click "Change" and then click "Remove".
    If you're using & or Vista, head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select QuickTime, and then click "Uninstall".
    You can get QuickTime back either via Apple Software Update (in your Start menu go "All Programs > Apple Software Update" ... QuickTime should appear in the "New Programs" section), or by downloading a QuickTimeInstaller.exe from the following location:

  • RE: removing "quicktime" from my System Preferences?

    I have removed/deleted every quicktime from my computer except the one located on my "system preferences" page. How do I delete that one? Thanks for your help. George

    Niel,
    Thanks for the advice. I did as you said but it was not located there. All the other ones were there. I must have a "ghost" figure showing up after deleting all of the other quicktimes. Now, how do I get rid of the "ghost" figure? Thanks for the info! George

  • How can I remove malware from my computer?

    I can't go to google mail page. I can't search words with any browser because nothing happen. I think it is malware. I tried spy bot-SD. But no result. Please tel me how can remove malware from my computer.

    Try running malwarebytes, if that doesn't work.
    Simply restore your system to the checkpoint before this happened. It's easy, On Windows 7, I just had to do it to get rid of the rogue program 'Antimalware Doctor'. Go to Start > ALL Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore click next and select the restore point prior to the time the infection occurred. Mine took only 5-7 minutes to run.
    If you don't have Windows 7, you still can get to the System Restore by finding the location of your Accessories, normally System Restore is under this.

  • My iphone 4 is not working and I cant reset it from the computer either because it wont connect to it I need help!!!

    My iphone 4 is not working and I cant reset it from the computer either because it wont connect to it I need help!!!
    1. I tried connecting it to itunes for a system reset and it didnt work.
    2. The phone wont even turn on!!!

    If the phone wont turn on it sounds like it needs to be charged.  Plug it into a charger and wait about 15 minutes and try turning it on while still charging. Have you tried holding in your home button with the on/off button held in?  Hold them both together until the apple logo comes up and then release them.  The screen will blink off an on while it is resetting. I still think this is a battery issue. Good luck~

  • My macbook pro is infected with VBS.Lys.M.  Unfortunately, bitdefender can only quarantine it and it keeps reappearing.  Is there any way to remove it from my computer?

    My macbook pro is infected with VBS.Lys.M.  Unfortunately, bitdefender can only quarantine it and it keeps reappearing.  Is there any way to remove it from my computer?

    That's Windows malware, so it cannot be infecting your Mac. It probably is on your computer as an email attachment. To remove it, see:
    http://www.thesafemac.com/how-to-remove-infected-files/
    Also, note that BitDefender is pretty bad at detecting Mac malware. I would recommend removing it. See my Mac Malware Guide for more information about protecting yourself from malware:

    I am currently using the adobe cloud service and would like to give my granddaughter my original lightroom and photoshop programs.  Would do I need to do to remove them from my computer to hers?  The lightroom 5 program has been replaced with the cloud version on my computer.

    Follow the steps listed at  Transfer an Adobe product license
    Lightroom has no activation check so you don't need to do anything to your computer. Your old copy of Photoshop must be deactivated / uninstalled if you haven't already done so.

  • No matter what I do I cant delete itunes from my computer so I can install newest software.

    no matter what I do I cant delete itunes from my computer so I can install the newest software?

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then seeRecover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • HT204025 Can I remove files from my computer without removing them from iCloud?

    Can I remove files from my computer without removing them from iCloud?

    Reason I'm asking: I did move a folder over, and then went to iCloud.com, and looked in that folder, and it said it was empty. Thanks
    When you move a folder to iCloud Drive, it will upload the contents of this folder to iCloud Drive, but it may take a long tome, even for small items. You may see progress bars, while the contents is uploading.  And the folder may look empty, until it will be updated from iCloud.  For example - shortly after adding the folder "neueBilder" to iCloud Drive.

  • Had to remove itunes from my computer to reset the computer. Now I'm having problems syncing my iphone with the computer. Computer is saying it wants to download updates to the phone but that will delete things I downloaded straight from the phone. Help!

    Had to remove itunes from my computer to reset the computer. Now I'm having problems syncing my iphone with the computer. Computer is saying it wants to download updates to the phone but that will delete things I downloaded straight from the phone. Help!

    iTunes thinks you have a new computer because you restored the OS. Open iTunes and authorize it to the same account you have on the iPhone. Did you restore your iTunes content from a backup after resetting your computer? Have you been syncing regularly with the computer, and does the iTunes library on the computer contain your apps, music and videos? If so just sync and your content will be removed then restored.
    If you have not hopefully you have now learned something. You can recover apps and purchased songs by connecting the phone, without syncing, and choose "Transfer purchases..." from the File menu.
