I Want Quicktime!

have recently been downloading a lot of game review/trailers off of www.ign.com which i am safely assuming to be a legitimate website in every sense of the term
upon saving the trailer and subsequently playing them they would crash randomly in Quicktime with the 'application unexpectedly quit' blurb
so i thought after ten or twelve trailers, alright, trash the quicktime appl. and re-download it from apple
nada.
i've tried downloading it about ten times and every time i attempt to double-click and open the dmg file i get the statement:
"the following disk image failed to mount" - "inavalid checksum"
oh please solve my problems my funny little fellow forum users or more powerful IT demigods...
thanks

That is strange. Is this the only download you get that kind of error message with? No one else has mentioned any such problem. Is this the URL you are using?

Perhaps you need to repair permissions or maybe even reinstall your system software, although that is an extreem measure.

  • I only want quicktime

    I'm new on these forums and was just wondering if there was any way to get just quicktime installed without having to go through the hassle of installing the itunes S**TE?
    If anyone knows of the best way of doing this then I would like to know asap because then I could post how to do it on my website because I know a lot of people who JUST WANT QUICKTIME and no other C**P installing on their pc at the same time.
    Also I don't know if anyone else has had any trouble trying to contact apple via e-mail but I have been all over their bloody website and cannot find any e-mail links for support on itunes or quicktime, I mean what is with that, instead of e-mailing them I have to put a post in a rubbish forum to try get some sensible answer from someone else other than themselves.
    If anyone has a contact e-mail for support on itunes or quicktime then i would like to know what they are so that i can have a go at them about their rubbish software.
    Any response would be greatly appreciated and you can reply to me via this post or by e-mail on [email protected]

    I have one solution for you.. I just also bought my Ipod VIdeo 60 GB 3 days ago and having problem with Quicktime 7.0.3.
    Everytime I click on Itunes Icon on my desktop, it says you have older version of Quicktime 7.0.2, Itunes need 7.0.3 or later to be able to play Itunes, Please reinstall Itunes....I did reintalling adn uninstalling millions of times.. still it was the same problem.
    Now what I recommend is to uninstall all Quicktime version and Itunes in your computer. Delete everytime you have... shutdown wait for couple of minutes and then go to the above site address I provided. Only download Quicktime alone. Do not download qiucktime and itunes together.. It is no good. And do not go to Apple site to download because it will download together.. That's not what we want. Download Quicktime 7.0.3 version for windows. After successful installation.. Only then Go to apple site and only download Itunes alone. This will work I guaranteed. Because mine is working now!!! Let me know the outcome.. Good luck!!

  • I deleted Quicktime 10 and I want Quicktime 7

    I deleted Quicktime 10 and I want Quicktime 7.
    I want more options when I export out of Quicktime. How do I get Quicktime to run on my iMac when my computer won't let me install it because it says I have Quicktime 10 on my computer already?
    Right now, I don't think I have QT on my system in any form but the installer (when I tried to install 7) said I do.
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    Best,
    Evan Jacobs

    Click here and install the software.

  • Don't want QuickTime to open .tif files in IE

    How do I stop QuickTime from trying to open .tif files for me in Internet Explorer? My company has a web site where I can look at engineering drawings in .tif format. I used to be able to left-click on a link and have a window open that gave options to open the file, download it, etc. But after installing QuickTime on my computer, when I left-click on a link, QuickTime automatically jumps in and opens the drawing in the IE window. That wouldn't be so bad, except that I can only view the first page! Can anyone help me?

    No Nancy, everything opens just fine, the issue is the document window opens up full-screen behind everything (all my panels are there on top). The window is obviously upworkable until I scale it to fit in the rest of my viewable space. An html page is centered in this wide-screen upon opening, effectively being partially covered with tabs and panels. The outside space that the full screen window takes up is nothing but a solid color, covering useful space where I want to see my panels, some desktop for other apps if I wish etc. So effectively I have to resize the full screen window down, to the edges of the "workable" html designated space, which is all I need to see. Not 8" of a blank, useless window on each side, covering everything else.  I would assume most of us web designers are using and viewing other apps, windows etc. on their desktop at the same time. If nothing else you can't even work on the html page until you resize it i order to see the panels which cover it. In PS for instance once you size a document window the program remembers the size on your screen and position where it opened last.

  • Do not want Quicktime to load automatically

    I have searched the forum for my answer with no luck.
    I am a Cinematographer, I am putting together my showreel. The reel consists of between 8 or 10 QuickTimes, each between 5 to 8 MB in size. When the page loads all the quicktimes load. That is a big download. I want the person viewing the site to decide whether it loads. I have deselected autoplay, so they don't play unless the viewer decides to play it, but I don't want it to load at all until the viewer decides to load each one individually.Any ideas

    Put each of your QT movies on a separate page and have a master page with a list of titles and/or a screenshot of a representative frame as a link to each.
    Make this link an external one so that the movie cab be opened in a new browser window or provide a back button to the list so that you don't have to include all the movies in the site navigation.

  • ITunes wants Quicktime 7.5.5

    Suddenly, I can't open my iTunes at all.  I get an error notice stating it needs Quicktime updated to 7.5.5.  Currently I have QT 7.5 Pro.  I can't find an update or download to 7.5.5 anywhere.  A little help?

    Try the latest version of QuickTime for Mac OS X 105, 7.7, which if Software Update won't bring it up can be downloaded here:

  • IP camera wants quicktime but already installed

    I have several Watchnet IP cameras which require QT - which i installed - but every camera keeps asking for QT to be installed. This is happening on two different computers, and I have been able to log into these same cameras in the past.
    The cams require IE, which is what I'm using. Anyone have any ideas?

  • QuickTime 7 Pro Key Does Not Work

    Apple Store sent me a QT Pro "key" and link to on-line instructions. Nothing works. My System Preferences QuickTime dialog/panel does not have an OK button (or a Register button). It's a dead-end dialog. Email reply to my plea for help from Apple Support said I cannot use the QT 7 Pro key on a Mac with OS X 10.3.9 and QuickTime 7.0.3. Said to reinstall 7.0.1 (downgrading from 7.0.3), which I have done, to no avail. Next, I'm supposed to reinstall QuickTime 6.... MEANWHILE, on an Apple QuickTime Web page, it says that QuickTime 7 Pro REQUIRES QuickTime 7. The Apple Support email also suggested that I cannot use QT 7 Pro unless I have OS X Tiger. The email seems fat fetched, but the on-line info doesn't help either. What do I have to do to get QuickTime 7 Pro running? I've paid in full for the privilege. Thanks.

    I appreciate your taking time to reply. Unfortunately, the circumstance you describe does not work on my system, and no one can tell me why or what to do to fix it. Before I went to the Apple online store to buy QuickTime Pro, I already had QT 7.0.3 on my Mac OS X, 10.3.9, system. I paid for QT 7 Pro and got the "key"/registration email from Apple. The email included a link to online installation instructions which do, in fact, tell me to click OK in the System Preferences QuickTime panel (though there is no OK button). I tried again, using your advice, and simply quit System Preferences. Still no QT Pro. When I do a find, Sherlock returns 71 items whose names contain "quicktime." Only one is an application, QuickTime Player v. 7.0.1, No QuickTime Pro. [FYI, though I had QT 7.0.3 on my Mac, the Apple support email told me to "reinstall" 7.0.1, which I did. They actually wanted me to reinstall/downgrade to QuickTime version 6, but I have not done that.] My reason for wanting QuickTime Pro to work is so I can convert AIFF audio files to MP3 audio files. QuickTime Player won't do it for me and told me to get Pro. Thanks, --CSZ

  • I have quicktime player 10 installed on my mac and it is considered the (default) player.  How can I get my Quicktime 7 Pro as my default player?

    I have quicktime player 10 installed on my mac and it is considered the (default) player.  How can I get my Quicktime 7 Pro as my default player?  When I downloaded video from my phone, I couldn't hear the sound because Quicktime player 10 automatically opened the file and there was no sound,  When I opened the file in quicktime 7 Pro, the audio was fine.  I would prefer to have all movie files open automatically using my Pro version.  Any suggestions?  When I trashed the QT player 10 and clicked on the .3g2 movie file, it didn't automatically open with QT 7 Pro.  Instead a window opened wanting to convert the file to Flash.  I don't want that to happen.

    Try This...
    Highlight the file you want Quicktime 7 Pro to open -
    Goto File > Get Info or (CMD I)
    In the Get Info window, scroll down to "Open with:"
    Select the player you want to open the music file.
    Click the "Change All..." button if you want to 
    "Use this application to open all documents like this.”

  • Help. Deleted Quicktime using the Trash and I need to get it back!

    Hi,
    Quicktime was not playing .avi files so I though I'd delete it and reinstall it to clear up the problem. So I dragged Quicktime into the trash and emptied it. When I tried to reinstall it I got a message saying that Quicktime cannot be installed on this disk because Quicktime X is already present. I need to get Quicktime back, can anybody help me please?

    Extract the QuickTime X player from your Mac OS X 10.6 DVD and then run the combo updater for your Mac OS X version.
    If you want QuickTime 7, it's here.
    If you can't play a given AVI, install Perian. If you still can't play it, it probably can't be played in Mac OS X.

  • I get the error message in QuickTime "operation stopped the operation is not supported for this media" most times when I try and export an .AVI file as something else (.m4v). I have not touched the file in any way (no trimming, clipping or other editing)

    I get the error message in QuickTime "operation stopped the operation is not supported for this media" most times when I try and export an .AVI file as something else (e.g. .m4v). I have not touched the file in any way (no trimming, clipping or other editing), all I want QuickTime to do is export the file in a compressed format. Bizzarely, if I shutdown and open QuickTime many times I can occasionally export a clip as another format (maybe one in 10 times). I have seen that other users have had a similar problem after clipping files in QuickTime but this seems to be a slightly different bug in that all I do is open the file and then try and export the file as is - either way, this is a very annoying bug

    @Z_B-B, thank you for taking the time to respond to my cry for help. However, the link you supplied does not address the problem: I am not trying to export from Final Cut Pro to QuickTime, I am trying to export from QuickTime to the rest of the world (like people's iPhones and Ipads) in .m4v format (so I am not emailing my freinds such huge files).
    If I were to spend hundreds of Dollars on a copy of Final Pro I could export directly from there and not have to bother with QuickTime, but I do not take enough video clips to justify the cost. I must say that I never had any of these problems before I decided to switch from Snow Leopard to Mountai Lion.

  • QuickTime 7 and Applescript in 10.6

    Hi!
    I have a little issue. Below is a part of my script. The idea is that under 10.5 everything worked perfectly. Right now I'm in 10.6 .
    Basically I want QuickTime Player 7 to open a file and do some stuff with it. Unfortunately, the QuickTime Player 7 activates (opens), but at the same time the file is opened in the new QuickTime Player X. I tried to be specific by using +application id "com.apple.quicktimeplayer"+ which corresponds to QT7, but it still leaves QT7 just astivated and a file opened in QTX.
    +tell application id "com.apple.quicktimeplayer"+
    activate
    +close every document+
    +open theNewFile+
    +set movie_name to name of document 1+
    +set save_location to my_location & movie_name & ".mov"+
    +save document 1 in save_location+
    +close document 1+
    +end tell+
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

  • Quicktime seems to be out of date

    But when I click the UPDATE button, it tells me Quicktime data from Server invalid. How do I fix this?

    If you just want QuickTime updated by whatever means, go to the QuickTime tab above, click on the Download link, and download the QT installer (with or without iTunes, as appropriate for your situation) and run that.
    As to the problem connecting to the update server, perhaps someone else will have more specific suggestions, but it may well be a firewall on your system or network blocking access to the server.
    Regards.

  • How do I stop quicktime from playing mpg in firefox?

    I want quicktime to NOT play mpg files in firefox. How can I add a mpg file to the applications section of FF to setup this properly?

    QuickTime can be very persistent in wanting to handle (take over) MIME types.
    Did you check the file type and MIME setting in the QuickTime Preferences?

  • How do I stop Quicktime plugin from opening all WAV files?

    I have iTunes on my Windows 7 Ultimate computer to support my iPhone.  iTunes installs QuickTime, QuickTime installs the QuickTime browser plugin, and the QuickTime browser plugin DOES NOT RESPECT THE WINDOWS FILE EXTENSION ASSOCIATIONS.  This causes problems because I DO NOT want QuickTime to open WAV and MP3 files as I have other applications for those file types.  So my question is...
    How do I tell the QuickTime browser plugin to open file types a, b, and c, but NOT open file types d, e, and f?  I can't find the file type association dialog for the QuickTime plugin.

    Hi turningtest2,
    Actually it is linked content - pages that have links to play sound samples rather than having players built into the page, "How To" videos, etc.
    Firefox and Chrome seem to have workarounds, and in playing around with Firefox tonight it looks like using Firefox (or Chrome) will solve a lot of the issues here at home, but at the office I'm limited to IE 9, 64 bit when using a Windows 7 box.  Odd as it may seem, I have IE 8, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Opera on my office XP Pro box.  So, I'm having to "reverse migrate" as I move from a Windows XP Pro box to a Windows 7 box at the office, and switch from using Firefox and Chrome (XP Pro) to using IE 9 (Win 7).  Thus, the problems with the QuickTime plugin in 64 bit IE 9 are a real annoyance.
    Hmmm, so Quicktime is no longer needed for iTunes.  That's interesting.  I have iTunes at both home and office and maybe uninstalling Quicktime at the office will solve some of the problems ... except for playing ".mov" files...
    I'm considering some registry hacks for the office Windows 7 Ultimate box, but I'll have to get the sysadmin to make any registry changes.
    Have you tried any of the registry fixes?
