ITunes and QuickTime Player give me a QTCF.dll error when trying to launch

When i try to open iTunes on my laptop it gives me an error saying:
iTunes.exe - entry point not found
The procedure entry point
QTCF_CFUniCharGetUnicodePropertyDataForPlane could not be located in the dynamic link library QTCF.dll

i have uninstalled both programs and reinstalling them several times. i have also check to see if they work on other accounts on my laptop. they do not work.

The procedure entry point QTCF_CFUniCharGetUnicodePropertyDataForPlane could not be located in the dynamic link library QTCF.dll
The most common cause of that one is a misplaced older version of the QTCF.dll lurking about in your system. On an x64 system, the best place to start looking is in the C:\Windows\sysWOW64\ directory.
Do you see a QTCF.dll lurking in there? If so, try dragging it out onto the desktop. Can you launch iTunes and QuickTime now?

    I keep getting an msvcr80.dll error when trying to download newest version of iTunes.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Cannot open TIFF files since installing iTunes and QuickTime Player.

    iTues+Quicktime is preventing use of Alternatiff, that is a Firefox plug-in TIFF image viewer, from displaying the image. Instead the Quicktime symbol appears but is unable to display the image. I uninstalled iTunes and without any other change, the plug-in works. I installed iTunes, making sure it is not selected as default media player. When iTunes started both it and Alternatiff plug-in functioned correctly. However, Upon exit from iTunes my TIFF viewer stopped working again. Uninstalling Quicktime (leaving iTunes) enables Altermatiff but then iTunes doesn't work
    It is critical that I get bot iTunes and a TIFF viewer plug in to work.
    HELP!!!

    Excellent news, Bulent!
    I hope Quicktime does not, later, try to take over again.
    Good point ... next time you do a QuickTime update directly from the Website:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    ... very near the end of the install, there should be a screen with a "Configure File/MIME types" button. Click the button, go to the MIME types, and make sure that that TIFF image entry is unchecked. That should avoid the problem in future.

  • ITunes and QuickTime Player

    I found a cool .WAV I want to use, but I cannot get it to work. Its icon is the music/iTunes one, but I need it to be QuickTime. I'm a newbie at this sound stuff...

    Drag the file into iTunes and convert or export it as needed, or drag it onto the QuickTime Player icon in the Dock and play it from there.

    Hi!
    I've tried to seek through the forums to find someone with the same error, but i haven't found anyone.
    Here's the problem:
    When i try to launch iTunes I get a Windows Error saying that iTunes har encountered a problem and has to quit. It's that kind of error where you can send an error-report. And when I try to restart Windows, I get the same error when I log on. Please help! I've tried to reintall and repair iTunes, but it won't help.

    hi
    I had this same problem for ages and tried all sorts
    of things. I think the problem was Quicktime
    actually, but what eventually worked was:-
    Uninstall itunes, then reboot. Close the Quicktime
    program tray icon (lower right corner of taskbar) and
    uninstall Quicktime. Then install the standalone of
    Quicktime before installing itunes again.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks!
    I'll try it out! Havent't thought of that.
    Will come back to say if it worked.

    See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates. It may pay to uninstalll all Apple components and delete the folders set out in the second box before reinstalling. In principle you ought not need to reinstall QuickTime.

  • I have a laptop, we recently changed to ATT MIFI and now it gives me a time out error when I try to open firefox. How do I solve this problem. I really like firefox.

    We just changed to ATT MIFi and every time I try to go into firefox it give me "The connection has timed out". My husband's laptop doesn't give him that error. I had previously been on satellite (hughes.net). I had problems with explorer but that has been fixed. I really like firefox and would like to get it fixed.

    iphoto its pictures are still on your computer under the pictures folder.. it will be one file that says iphoto library. Its a separate file from the actual program.
    If you still have the disks that came with your unit they have the ilife applications on them. put the disk in your drive that says mac os x applications dvd. it will auto mount and there should be a folder called bundled software open this and there should be a .pkg file to reinstall the ilife suite which includes imovie iphoto iweb idvd and garageband .  After installing don't forget before runnig the program run software updates to download the any fixes
    if you r unit has disks labeled disk one and disk 2.. you need to boot off of disk one and choose install bundled software.
    I believe there is a KB article through apple.com/support

  • Receive and ERROR when trying to launch Premiere Elements 11

    Out of the Blue, I am suddenly unable to open Priemere Elements 11, the organizer works fine, but if I slect NEW Project from the welcome screen I get the following errors: A dialog box named "Premiere Elements Debug Event" with the message of "Premiere Elements has ecountered an error....
    [..\..\Src\Core\Preferences.cpp-388]
    The only option on this error is to hit "Continue", at which point a second window pops up with a Runtime Error...
    I have uninstalled, rebooted and then reinstalled but there is no change. Has anyone elese seen this problem... thanks in advance for any help.

    RThiessen3707
    If you want to give some troubleshooting a try, I will stay with you until we get that Premiere Elements 11 Windows to work. I will have lot of questions because I believe the answers are in the details. Often I write problems with the same symptoms can (often do) have different causes. So, I look at each case for details specific to it.
    1. How long have you been running Premiere Elements 11 Windows 7 64 bit without this problem: few days, few weeks, few months, never worked? The usual drill...do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed and are you working from a User Account with Administrative Privileges? Are your video and audio card drivers up to date?
    2. What do your computer resources look like, available RAM, free hard drive space (derived from just Local Disk C or using a supplemental drive for scratch disks and video storage? Where are your scratch disks directed and how much free hard drive space is at that location? (See Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disks.) Besides your ccleaner maintenance, have you checked for Adobe Folder previews and conformed audio pile ups? Have you cleaned the Media Cache Database (See Edit Menu/Preferences/Media/Media Cache Database.)?
    3. You say the problem happened out of the blue. Any new software, plug-ins, codecs, and the like installed around the time that the problem set in?
    4. I would like to see you get rid of the Welcome Screen as your point of entry to the program. To that end, right click the Premiere Elements 11 Desktop icon, select Properties, select Open File Location. That will take you to a file named Adobe Premiere Elements 11.exe. Select the file next to it named Adobe Premiere Elements.exe, create a Desktop shortcut to Adobe Premiere Elements.exe, and use that Desktop shortcut thereafter to open Premiere Elements 11.
    5. I would also like to explore other ways of opening the Premiere Elements new project depending on results. One example...can you open a new Premiere Elements project from the Elements Organizer?
    5. If possible, download and install the free 30 day tryout of Premiere Elements 11 Windows from Adobe and determine if that will install for you from the Premiere Elements as well as the Elements Organizer interfaces. Adobe allows only one download of its tryout  product version whether you have used the product 1 or 30 days. So, if you have gone the tryout route, this idea isn't going to work unless Adobe makes an exception. But, I do like this idea for troubleshooting purposes.
    MBolton never did follow up to a conclusion on the thread that kglad kindly referenced. There were other avenues to explore. I look forward to the opportunity to assist you in your Premiere Elements troubleshooting here. I am no longer visiting nor answering questions at the web site where MBolton and I sought to find an answer to this issue.
    Thanks.

  • Softpub.dll error when trying to start iTunes

      Every time I try to open itunes I receive the following error message.
    "C:\windows\system32\softpub.dll is either not designed to run on windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support."
    I have tried repairing and reinstalling itunes multiple times. I have tried doing this:
    1. Go to the Start Menu and type CMD into the search bar.
    2. Hit enter.
    3. A black box should appear on your screen. Type in: sfc /scannow (Note: There is a space be-tween sfc and /scannow)
    4. Windows will scan your computer for any broken or corrupt files.
    5. If Windows did find any corrupt files restart your computer.
    but when I was done it told me errors were found but they could not be fixed.
    I am running Windows 7 Service Pack 1 on a Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have seen similar threads and tried what they sugggested but have had no success thus far.

  • Error when trying to launch Life and Work Event Processes on ESS ERP2005

    Hi Experts,
    I'm experiencing some problems after installing ESS ( on EP7.0 connected to a ECC6.0 ) on the LWE functionality.
    I've activated all the processes in the Guided Procedures, and I have assigned authorizations to the users that can start this processes, but I still get a java dump.
    You've probably faced same problems on your instalations. Could anyone help me out on this issue?
    The dump sound like this:
    The initial exception that caused the request to fail, was:
       com.sap.tc.webdynpro.services.exceptions.WDRuntimeException: Failed to create deployable object 'sap.com/cafeugpuirt~comp' since it is not a Web Dynpro object.

    Thanks in advance for your answers.
    Kind regards,  Jose.

    'sap.com/cafeugpuirt~comp' is not getting executed so advise is
    As you are saying that you can view the same application in visual admin, can you please run it from portal webdynpro application (administrator view) and take preview. Please revert back on the on the deployment details of the same too by checking it localy.
    sathya component means application.... by the way there is no specific word for a java project in GP you can call it an application/ project/ service....

  • After I downloaded the most recent versions of itunes and quicktime  I cannot play any videos, tutorials.  Thank you for any help.

    Videos will not play after downloading the mmost recent versions of Itunes and Quicktime.  What can I do?  The video tries to start but freezes and does not respond.

    Appreciate the suggestion.  I did the repair, but videos still don't play.
    I tried putting quicktime in "safe mode", but that also did not solve the video-play problem.
    However, I downloaded a video and that video does play.
    A video may start but quickly freezes.
    In itunes is the player "quicktime or itunes"?
    When I open the quicktime player(its appearance doesn't look like a player with controls for play, pause, etc.).
    Maybe the controls appear when play begins' however, then I try to open any song of video, I always get the same message:  "Do you want to allow this website to open a program on your computer(in itunes, I assume).)
    If i choose "yes" I get an error message.
    I thought this additional information might be helpful, but you can just answer the original question if you have some additional ideas.
    Thanks for your help.
