Needs new version of quicktime that hates me.

when I go to open iTunes it gives me an error message that says QuickTime version 7.0d0 is installed, iTunes requires Quicktime 7.0.3 or later. Please reinstall iTunes. iTunes won't open at all.
I've reinstalled iTunes several (more than five) times without success. I've tried uninstalling Quicktime and reinstalling a later version, without success.
what should I do?

Perhaps this will help:
Bugie: Perform a Thorough & Complete Uninstall and Reinstall of iTunes/QuickTime.
You may need to clean up the Windows registry with CCleaner (freeware) once you have QuickTime uninstalled, just to make sure there are no lingering entries from the old Public Preview edition of QuickTime.
Hope this does indeed help.

  • Newer Version of Quicktime that Doesn't Exist?

    I'm having issues with Quicktime. I tried downloading iTunes 7. Got that done, rebooted, didn't work. Said I needed quicktime 7.1.3 - so i went to the site to download the new quicktime + iTunes. Did that, it's installed. Quicktime is working, I checked for updates - says there are no updates available. iTunes is STILL telling me it won't run without quicktime 7.1.3 - quicktime is telling me that I already HAVE version 7.1.3.
    I have tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling several times, the same error keeps happening. I would give up if I hadn't already spent so much money on iTunes in the previous versions. Really the only reason I want it is for the easy way to backup my iTunes... that and I no longer have the old version, new version deleted it. headesks Help please?

    Try to go through this whole article making sure that you remove all the components and reinstall itunes from the web making sure that you download a new installer.....

  • Itunes wont open, needs newer version of quicktime, but newest is installed

    I installed IMesh a while back and as soon as I did my Itunes refused to open. Everytime I try to open it, it says "Quicktime version 7.1 is installed, Itunes requires Quicktime 7.1.3 or later. Please reinstall Itunes". So then I tried numerous times to reinstall Itunes, uninstall it and then reinstall it, used the installer cleanup thing, and even tried to install Quicktime and Itunes separately - I feel like it's still malfunctioning because of Imesh, even though I deleted iMesh entirely. Please help! I'm absolutely desperate.

    okay. let's try swapping out your QuickTime one more time.
    head into your Add/Remove programs. uninstall QuickTime.
    Next, we’ll manually remove any leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
    7. Restart your computer.
    next, we'll get a fresh copy of QuickTime into your PC by doing a repair install of itunes.
    switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the repair install.
    go into Add/Remove and select itunes. click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    if the repair install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching itunes again. does it launch properly now?

  • I am trying to reinstall iTunes but everytime I try to reinstall it, it is telling me that I can't because I have a newer version of Quicktime installed. The problem is that I cannot uninstall this, please help.

    I have just purchased an iPhone 4, but it wasn't connecting to my iTunes, so I took advice and uninstalled iTunes. But when I am trying to reinstall iTunes, it keeps telling me that I cannot because I have a newer version of Quicktime installed. I cannot find this newer version anywhere, and have gotten rid of the Quicktime folder, but it is still refusing to install iTunes.
    Please help, I have tried everything.

    But when I am trying to reinstall iTunes, it keeps telling me that I cannot because I have a newer version of Quicktime installed.
    That's usually caused by damaged QuickTime installation configuration information on the PC.
    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 iTunes again. Does the install go through properly 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.)

  • Can't install Itunes 9.2 "Newer Version of Quicktime"

    I got a new itouch last week. Worked fine. Then went to update software to new OS (maybe Apple could have put this on a brand new one instead of older OS?!). Message said i needed Itunes 9.2. Went to update and got error "newer version of quicktime installed" and that i can't update since iTunes needs Quicktime. Tried several approaches, no luck. Deleted Itunes for a fresh start and then this wiped the Itouch clean which i had not at all intended. But, despite this exact same error message. I have been working on this and have used various uninstallers and searched the registry, cleaned temp folders, compressed and defragmented the hard drive. Downloaded Chrome, tried manually installing Itunes using Apple Software update, etc etc etc etc etc. Same message. Do i need to wipe the hard drive? Does anyone from Apple have any idea what to do? All message boards i have seen indicate that they do not.

  • Newer version of Quicktime (allegedly) installed

    Hi All,
    Can anyone give me an idiots guide set of instructions to solve this problem? When I try to re-install my iTunes, I get the message that I have a newer version of Quicktime installed but I have wiped (as well as I can) any trace of quicktime from my laptop. I know this involves downloading msicuu".exe (?) but where to get it from and what to do with it once I have it are beyond me!
    Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction,
    Dave

    Not sure what instructions you've seen so far, Dave. But here's my standard set of instructions for a quicktime.msi problem nowadays:

  • ITunes won't install because there is already a newer version of Quicktime

    I am trying to install the new version of iTunes, but halfway through the installation process a message comes up that says there is already a newer version of Quicktime installed and iTunes cannot be updated. I tried many things like uninstalling Quicktime but this did not work. How can I get iTunes installed?

    Hello lberle
    Check to see if you are up to date on iOS by going to Settings > General > Software Update and update it if it needs it. Then update Pages one that is done by going to the App Store.

    Unless I'm missing something that article doesn't really tell you how to do it in the detail you need to perform the action.  It also omits essentials such as using your previous library so you can open the library.itl file which gets irreversibly updated once you open it with a newer version.

  • Quicktime uninstall error "A newer version of quicktime is already..."

    We have 2 new ipods and iphone. We attempted to install the newest version of itunes but when running the install I get this message: A newer version of quicktime is already installed. This installation cannot proceed while the newer version of quicktime is installed." Sadly, my first response was to uninstall the itunes we had that was running fine (aside from a pop up message that would tell us that some of our quicktime needed updating (not exact words, but I can't replicate the error message)
    Unable to uninstall quicktime via window uninstall- I get the same error message as above.
    I since have manually removed the quicktime folder from my program files. I have used the search feature to look for instances of quicktime and can't find anything else. I have even, at the advice of another, gone into the registry (start, regedit) and then removed quicktime folders found under apple computer. I have run "advance system care" in hopes to clean up the registry.
    I am still unable install itunes and continue to get the same message when attempting to install itunes or uninstall quicktime. I need some help! (my kids are freaking out, thus so am I)

    Most likely we're looking at a damaged QuickTime.msi file stuck on your system. (That contains the installation database for the previous version of QuickTime on the system.)

  • My library is empty after I downloaded a new version of quicktime

    iTunes kept giving me an error message that I needed to update the version of quicktime I had and reinstall iTunes. I uninstalled and then reinstalled a newer version of quicktime (7.1) and when I pulled iTunes up again, my library was empty. I can import songs from my music and my computer but it's not my entire library.
    fix?

    further information:
    when I go to open my iTunes music library or iTunes music folder, the folders are from the new version of iTunes, and they don't contain my old library (duh). are those folders gone forever?

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

  • I've noticed that in the new version of Firefox that you cannot save multiple tabs at one time like the previous Firefox 3.6.or so and I wanted to know if I can find that feature again?

    I've noticed that in the new version of Firefox that you cannot save multiple tabs at one time like the previous Firefox 3.6.or so and I wanted to know if I can find that feature again?
    In the previous versions of Firefox when you went to you Bookmarks menu it gave you the options to either Bookmark This Page 'command' + 'D', Subscribe to this Page, Bookmark All Tabs 'up-arrow-key' + 'command' + 'D', and Organize Bookmarks 'up-arrow-key' + 'command' + 'B' however in the newest version of Firefox there is no Bookmark All Tabs so you can bookmark all the tabs that you have up in one window at a time. So I need to know if it is possible that the feature is now in a different place, is gone altogether, or if you can get that feature another way?
    For me personally and my work I go through hundreds of web pages a day and save around half of those so it is imperative that I be able to bookmark more then one tab at a time because I can't be bothered to bookmark every single page separately and then go through hundreds of tabs in my Unsorted bookmarks in order to sort those bookmarks. It is simple inconvenient to sort every bookmark individually that is why the previous version of Firefox with the Bookmark All Tabs button was superior in its convenience.

    Right click any tab and choose "Bookmark All Tabs".

    Have an older 17 MacBook Pro, running OS 10.5.8. Software update says everyting is current. Mac doesn't have iCloud, preferences still shows MobileMe. Just bought new iPhone 5S. Mac won't recognize phone, says I need newer version of iTunes. Have no problem with computer recognizing old phone 3 or 1-1/2 year old iPad. I suspect I need to update OS, but as software update isn't telling me to do so, can I? What version would I need to go to?

    Your MacBook Pro can be updated to run Mac OS X "Snow Leopard". Buy it. That will enable you to run the latest iTunes version.
