ITunes 10.6 can't use Quicktime?

I am trying to play a TV show purchased recently from the iTunes store and get the following error message:
"This movie requires Quicktime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes."
This is the latest version of iTunes 10.6, and I tried reinstalling it with no luck.  My Mini never had a problem before iTunes 10.6 and it meets all the system requirements for iTunes 10.6.
Why would the iTunes store sell a TV show that requires Quicktime while the latest version of iTunes doesn't support Quicktime?

Third visit to Genius Bar.  After trying several combinations of DVI/HDMI adaptors and HDMI cables, we saw nothing to indicate a cable/adapter problem.
The Genius then found
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3771
which says that iTunes, which ordinarily starts in 64-bit mode, needs to run in 32-bit mode because Quicktime is only 32 bit.  This explains the error message seen earlier: "This movie requires Quicktime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes."  ("Explains" is being overly generous.  Had the error message been more exact I could have saved 4 weeks of work and 3 trips to the Apple Store.)
TV shows are now playing reliably.

    I'd suggest you consider a cloud-based file sharing service such as Dropbox for this sort of use. iOS is not designed to be synched with more than one iTunes library at a time, so attempting to use it as you describe, connecting a single iPad to multiple computers, almost certainly won't work as you intend and is likely to cause nothing but headaches.

    Your iPhone and iPod can share the same iTunes account.  Apps can be freely shared and used by one or both devices.  You can't use money in your iTunes account to pay for your phone, but purchased apps can be used by both the iPod and iPhone.

    My wife and I have separate have separate user accounts on our IMac.  We have separate Apple IDs for iTunes.  How can we use iCloud on our separate iPhones without sharing contacts, calendars, etc.

    If have separate iCloud accounts and want to keep your all your iCloud data separate, you can create separate user accounts for each of you, then sign into your individual iCloud account within your user account.
    If you want to just add both iCloud calendars on your Mac, you can sign into one iCloud account in System Preferences>iCloud, then add the second account in System Preferences>Internet Accounts>iCloud and only check Calendars with this second account.

    I have a Philippine Store account, and currenty Iam here in Bahrain, and the only itunes cards available here is US store itunes card, How can I use it?

    You can't - to be able to redeem and use a US iTunes gift card you will need to be in the US with a US billing address on your account. Whilst you are in the Bahrain you can only use the Bahraini store, and you will need a Bahraini billing address on your account

  • How can I use QuickTime SDK to get Compress format of Video stream?

    I can get uncompress video stream like this:
    QDerr = NewGWorldFromPtr( &m_hGWorld, k32BGRAPixelFormat, &rcMac,
    NULL, NULL, 0, (char*)m_pVideoBuffer,
    m_sAVFileInfo.sResInfo.ulWidth*4);
    then the m_pVideoBuffer is uncompress video stream. How can I use QuickTime SDK to get Compress format of Video stream? I could change "k32BGRAPixelFormat" to other format,use other API or something?
    Could someone have the method? Best Wishes!

    Firefox, I would make sure you update your Desktop to Firefox 14.0.1, as the version you are running is quite old and out of date.
    Then, do you have your Sync Recovery key, username and password? If you do, you can re-add Firefox Sync to your computer.

    Apple won't reply on here, but you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can move the balance from your account to their's (I don't know if they can, or whether they can only move it to one account as opposed to splitting it between accounts) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • ITunes plus songs - Can I use it in more than one computer?

    Hi,
    I"m planning to buy songs from iTunes. Now that the songs are iTunes plus, is it possible to copy the song file to a different PC and upload it to iTunes?
    I've been used to buying songs from Amazon as it is MP3 format and wondering if iTunes plus offers the same flexibility as MP3 format when it comes to using it in multiple devices/machines.
    Any thoughts on this is appreciated.
    Thanks
    SN

    +"I've been used to buying songs from Amazon as it is MP3 format and wondering if iTunes plus offers the same flexibility as MP3 format when it comes to using it in multiple devices/machines."+
    Yes you can copy the iTunes Plus songs to other machines.
    I wouldn't quite say it has the "same flexibility," however. The Amazon songs, being MP3s, can be played in virtually any player, program, or phone, while the iTunes songs, being in AAC format, are more likely to run into incompatibilities. But if you are talking about other machines running iTunes, then it will not be a problem.

  • HT5622 Why can't I use my Apple ID to iTunes?  How can I use it with out credit card?

    How can I use my Apple ID in iTunes with out credit card?

    For me it's the same, I've just bought an iPad mini two weeks ago but I cannot log in with any Apple account in FaceTime.
    I enter my apple account in faceTime, then I press next the second screen and it shows "validating..." but it never gets validated.
    What's happening? This is really annoying

  • Can I use QuickTime in Flash application?

    Hi.
    I'm planning to develop a media player in Flash, and I would
    like to know if it is possible to do the things I wanna do. Can I
    use the QuickTime player in my Flash application to play video and
    music files? If I can, can I use the original controls from
    QuickTime to play, pause, stop, fast forward and rewind the
    video/music? (Why I ask is because I want to be able to hear the
    sound go fast forward and rewind when I press these controls, and
    the only player I know that does that is QT.) I also wanna be able
    to show the video and music files the user has on the computer with
    icons (or pictures). Is it possible to search video and music files
    in a computer (in specific folders)? Or do I have to know from the
    start, when I develop the application, which files exist?
    I'm really grateful for answers on my questions!
    Regards from Beeeaaa

    No you can't. You can't have player within a player.

    You can open a folder and look for file but you can't search
    user drive and get list
    of it. Only File - Open - Browse, that type of dialog.

  • HT204053 I can not sign in at iTune. How can I use this ID to sign in the iTune?

    How can I use my Apple ID to sign in iTune store?
    <Email Edited by Host>

    Your ID seems to be used to connect to an icloud account.  You can also use the ID for a new itunes store account - but are you sure you want to change that store account?  Any purchased songs, apps, movies, etc. using an old ID will be removed from your device.  This is because any purchased item is forever associated with the ID used to purchase it.  If you have purchased things in the past using some other ID, you should consider keeping that old ID for the itunes store and use the new ID for icloud.

  • HT201210 I tried to restore my iPhone 4s through iTunes and received error message that Restore could not be completed due to error 2003. Phone now not recognized in iTunes, with prompt to restore, phone w/screen with iTunes symbol and can't use.

    I tried to restore my iPhone 4s through iTunes and received error message that Restore could not be completed due to error 2003. Phone now not recognized in iTunes, with repeated prompts to restore phone. Now phone w/screen with iTunes symbol and USB cord can't use. It appears the phone has been restored, but I cannot activate it.
    I disabled my anti-software, iTunes and computer software (microsoft vista) are both up to date, I restarted the computer several times. My usb ports are working properly. I followed the troubleshooting suggestions from apple.

    yes did you buy it of somebody or a well known company such as apple or carphone warehouse?
    and i mean the phone would have been activated in the first place with the sim card you get given when you first get the phone.
    trying to activate the phone with another sim card that you did not get when you brought the phone may result in you not being able to activate it
    no worries
