Invalid Key for quicktime

Hi there
My Key to activate Quicktime 7 pro is invalid even though i had been using it in the past but it doesn't work anymore. What can i do?

Stuff happens. You'll get over it and the "key" you purchased (Mac) can still be used (only on a Mac).
I've been purchasing QT Pro keys for both Mac and PC for years. I need both versions for convenient editing and testing for my Web work.
Find a friend with a Mac and get them to "repay" you for your purchase. Their new key may have your name but no other personal information is stored in it.
Use the proceeds to pay for your Windows version key.
Darn. Did I say stuff happens?
And these are "digital" or "electronic" purchases. Since enabling the Pro features doesn't require anything other than the registration info, I can't see Apple paying for (or misusing) your error.

  • Invalid key for Quicktime Pro

    Okay, I'm feeling pretty irate right now after paying out £20 for a product key which was emailed to me for 'instant access' but doesn't bleeding work... Having followed the simple steps, I pasted in my key and got the message 'invalid key' instead of 'Quicktime Pro 7' or whatever...
    Will someone here, or someone at Apple please explain to me how in God's name that can happen!
    There was something I needed to do with it before the night is over - yet now obviously I can't and what's more I am 20quid out of pocket!
    If someone at Apple is reading, I suggest you call or, at the very least, email me with some form of apology for this situation.
    Answers please...

    Well, having waited til daybreak to call the support line, I found out that the key alone will not validate the product - you have to enter the name of the person who ordered and paid for it (in this case me) but exactly as they wrote in in the email... I had neglected to put a '.' after 'Mr' and hence the whole thing didn't work. Add the dot, and hey presto...
    The guy on the line was very cordial about it but did mention that they get this 'all the time'...
    Apple take note... You should make that clearer - especially since my account is in my name - the Mr was selected from a scroll-down menu - and since many people don't even use the dot any more - well it can be confusing...

  • Invalid Registratio for Quicktime 7 Pro

    Hello,
    I'm pretty good with computers and I'm trying to register for Quicktime Pro. I'm currently running Quicktime 7.1.1 and nothing seems to be working. I've followed the instructions exactly.
    The name I registered with in the email is what I've tried typing and copy/pasting into the Registered to field. The key is the same one in the email as well and I've tried typing and copy/pasting that as well. NOTHING is working, I keep getting a invalid registration warning.
    Please help!
    Thanks!
    Powerbook   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Apple sells Pro upgrades for both Mac and PC versions of the software.
    You did purchase the correct version, didn't you?
    The name may also include a "salutation" (Mr. Mrs. etc) that must also be used. Even entering Bob where Robert was used in the name for the purchase will show invalid registration.
    Best to use copy paste for both fields.

  • Invalid code for quicktime

    I purchase quicktime Pro 7 and its says that I received an invalid code for the registration. What am I suppose to do?

    Also make sure you purchased a key for the correct platform (Windows or Mac). QuickTime keys are not cross-platform.

  • How do I find the registration key for Quicktime Pro 7?

    I bought QT7 in 2005 & following the links in various support documents all take me to dead ends.  If I look at order history of my account it only goes back 18 months.  There is mention of "downloadable software" section in accounts but that has gone, presumably replaced by the App Store.  I am of course running Lion & want to unlock the Pro features on my MacBook Pro.
    Many thanks

    Do you know how I can amend the link to go direct tot he UK site?
    Sorry, no. We have the same problem of "lost" links to the software purchase history here in the USA. Fortunatally, someone came across this link in the support area and it appears to work for purchases made here at the US online store. However, the article containing the link I posted also states the following:
    Outside Canada and the United States
    If you purchased a QuickTime Pro key after 13 April 2001, contact the customer service number of The Apple Store . This number is available at the bottom of The Apple Store Web page for each region.
    If you purchased a QuickTime Pro key from the QuickTime Web site before 13 April 2001, please consult your email or other records from that period for your key.
    Here is a link to the article if you wish to read it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2376
    Believe others have tried contacting the US Customer Service number but were told to get the information form the Downloadable Software Purchases area for their account which, as we already know, no longer works. (In fact, the Customer Service people did not seem to even know that the old links were missing form our account pages or seem concerned about looking into fixing the problem.) While I don't hold out any hopes that you will fare any better, you can give it a try and at least ask if there is a similar external URL for people in other regions. I personally would also send formal QT feedback regarding the problem.

  • Can't find my registration key for quicktime pro?

    I have to go through a lot of searching in finding it under 2 accounts. It's just a lot easier getting it sent to me again rather trying to find it here where it should be easy to find, but not. It sure is not under my account history? Been like 5 or 6 years when I bought Quicktime Pro. But still should not make a difference in why it's not under account history. Can you please send me the registration code so I can have it registered on a new pc? Thanks.

    This is a user to user forum: you aren't talking to Apple here and no-one on here can help you. I assume you've checked your back emails?
    Apple's word on the subject says:
    You can retrieve purchased registration keys with these steps:
    Visit the Apple Online Store.
    Click "Account" in the upper-right corner.
    On the "Your Account" page, click "View Order History".
    Enter your Apple ID and password.
    Additional Information
    You can only retrieve a lost QuickTime Pro key if you purchased it through the Web. In most cases, the key will be identical to the key you lost.
    If you purchased your QuickTime Pro upgrade from another source, the key is not available for retrieval and you must purchase another key from The Apple Store.
    If you have already tried this and cannot find it, you can only contact the Store and ask them.

  • Invalid Key for signing

    Hi,
    Am getting the following error when I try to apply signatures for my application.
    java.security.InvalidKeyException: Could not initialize for signing with the given key
    My application after reading the key is not able to sign the assertion that is being generated. What might be wrong with the key generation. I am using the SunJCE provider and the keytool to generate the keys.
    Your help will be very much appreciated.
    Regards,

    I am using the JCEKS and creating a .jcekeystore file from which the code gets the key using the alias provided. The private key that is created is being used to sign an assertion. But the engineInitSign method is failing.The following exception is being thrown :

  • Purchasing a new key for quicktime

    do i need to purchase a new key when i download a newer version of quicktime? or can i still use the one i already purchased ? any insight woud be great. thanks

    If you are downloading and installing an update you can still use the same key. If it is an upgrade you can't.
    example: You have QT 7.1.5 Pro. You update to QT 7.1.6 and you still have Pro.
    example: you have QT 6.x.x Pro, and you upgrade to 7.1.x - you need a new key.

  • In stalling product key for Quicktime pro

    I had quicktime player. I purchased Quick time pro this afternoon. I have a PC with Windows 7. I cannot find where to use the product key to get from quick time player to quicktime pro.
    TLM

    It is the number that Apple sent me yesterday (product key number) when I purchased Quick time Pro.
    Okay ... it'll be your name then. The name you enter has to be precisely the same as the one in the email, right down to any honorifics. If there's a Mr in there, you need to enter the Mr ... if there's a full stop after the Mr. you can't just enter Mr (and so on).
    Try cutting and pasting the name in the email into the field in the Registration tab. Does the Key register properly now?

  • Upgrade to Pro says invalid key

    I feel ripped off.
    $32.07 (after tax) and the key I was given is invalid.
    whats worse there is NO WAY TO COMMUNICATE with APPLE on this issue.

    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.
    Also make sure you purchased a key for QuickTime for Windows, not for QuickTime for Mac. QuickTime keys are not cross-platform.

  • Invalid Key - Quicktime Pro 7

    I purchased quicktime pro 7 in January 2008. Today I had to reinstall some software on my PC - including Quicktime, yet when I enter the registration key I get an message stating 'invalid key'. I checked to make sure that the key is correct (from the Apple Store), but have entered the correct details. I've also downloaded direct from the website to ensure that I have the most up todate version.
    Can anyone help?
    thanks

    You,Sir, are "The Man"! I followed the instructions and - viola - Joy in Mudville. Thank you, keep up the great work. Even the "Apple" people don't seem to know this. I was on the phone with them, passed from one to another, for over an hour. While waiting I stumbled on your advise and I was made free! If they ask you, charge them a mint for the information. You Sir have gone where no Apple has gone before.

    You would have to ask Apple to get a "real" answer. This is a peer-to-peer user foum and anything we say would be pure speculation.

    Check the usual suspects, letter O and number zero for example, also letter "ell" and capital i.

    3) Ensure SAPHOSTAGENT is above level 149, advisable to update it to the latest level. Level 153 till today.
    4) go to the extracted temp directory and run ./hdbinst
    Just click enter when prompt if you are running single Hana Database.
