Quick time 7 installs without any problems (Windows 7) but it won't at all... help please.

I've installed Quick Time 7 without any problems (Windows 7 - PC) but it won't run at all.  QuickTime Player or PictureViewer. I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times also selected "repair" from the uninstall menu. Their are no error messages when I try to run Quicktime. Any ideas?

Okay. It's not likely to be a display preference issue then.
We'd better check to see if some other application has stashed old versions of QuickTime componentry down in your system files. (Error-mesage-free launch failures can sometimes be a symptom of that.)
So we'll go looking for the older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
First we'll need to change some view settings.
In your Start menu, open Computer.
In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
Click OK.
Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
Open the "Windows" folder.
If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • Can't install Quick Time 7 - Error 1721 problems with windows installer

    I had QT 6 PRO and an old version of itunes working fine. I tried to upgrade to Itunes 6. The install failed at the last step of installing QuickTime 7.04.
    The error message was "Error 1721.There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor." So, no QT, therefore no Itunes.
    I did the following:
    cleared my temp directory.
    made sure I had the latest windows installer (3.1 v2)
    removed all traces of itunes and quick time, using Remove Programs, the windows cleanup Utility and manually deleting all files as listed in info article 93976.
    I downloaded the standalone QuckTime 7.04 installer, tired to install and I still get the same error.
    I now have no quick time 6 or 7 and no itunes, and I have no idea what is wrong with the installer.
    I do have access to the install log, and am delighted to reprint it if it will help.
    thanks for any help people can provide.

    HI I am somewhat having the same problem as you with the itunes and QT not fully downloading but i am not computer smart and I am not real sure what you are saying to do. Also it always says "plug-in did not initialize properly" No clue but would appreciate any help from you... Thanks alot

  • Hello. I have premiere elements 12, & tried to open new project, but nothing happened. All you see is a purple & black ribbon.  I could open organizer without any problem!   I've accepted all the windows 7 updated. I've even updated  my graphics drivers.

    Hello. I have premiere elements 12, and have tried to open a new project, but nothing happened. All you see is a purple and black ribbon, then nothing.  I can  open the  organizer without any problem at all!
    What I have done so far:
    Accepted all windows 7 updates - essential  and non esential
    I've updated my graphics drivers
    I've also deleted and reloaded Premiere Elements from the disc
    I reloaded quick time and accepted the latest version
    All have no affect.
    My system is a windows 7  64 bit PC.
    I also have plenty of hard drive space
    Cyberlink  PowerDirector 11 works fine.
    PS - This seems a common complaint about Premiere Elements 12
    Help!

    Look at the issue with and without the antivirus disabled. If that does not help....
    There is a likelihood that the program may not be properly activated. Please review the following for possible solution

    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE12: Sign In Failure (Connect to Internet or Fix Computer Clock)
    Other possibilities include
    a. Deleting the Settings file named Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file
    Local Disc C
    Users
    Owner
    AppData
    Roaming
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    12.0
    and in the 12.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work, then delete the whole 12.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists. Be sure to be working with Folder Options Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the whole path cited.
    b. Do the uninstall, reinstall with a ccleaner (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts) in between the uninstall and reinstall with the antivirus and firewalls turned Off.
    Please review and consider. We will be watching for your progress.

  • MacBook Pro does not boot when 'cold', Windows 7 on the other hand boots without any problem

    Hey everyone,
    I have a strange problem with my MacBook Pro mid 2009 13" running OSX Mavericks. For more than a year I have trouble booting my laptop. A 'cold' start (a fresh boot) usually ends with the prohibition sign on a grey back ground (starting in verbose mode results in the error message that the main drive could not be found). So far so strange.
    I have Windnows 7 installed as a bootcamp partition. If I start the laptop with Windows booting is no problem and Windows runs smoothly (what a terrible world we live in). If I let the laptop run for let say 10 minutes and restart the laptop Mac OS starts without any problems. (It doesn't work if I immediately restart after windows booted; also reinstalling Mac OS as a clean install from an external medium did not change the problem; disk utility always finds something to repair but neither discpermission repair nor disk repair got rid of the problem).
    As an additional comment a WD 500GB Scorbio Blue replaced the original hard drive about a years ago. I had no problems with the hard drive initally and I can't really believe that there is a problem with the hardware, I mean, why does Windows start and Mac OS doesn't?
    Thanks for your time and help!
    Marco

    This isn't a direct answer to your issue but have you considered installing Wine so you can run the occasional windows app directly in OSX? It's a much more elegant solution IMHO. This avoids restarting all the time with Bootcamp and avoids crashing all the time (and the security risks) with Windows running.

  • HT1947 Does anyone else have my problem with atv3? Plays films in iTunes without any problems but on music every time I use the remote app on my iPhone 3GS it stops playing after around 5 tracks in. Anyone having this problem?

    Does anyone share my problem with atv3 I can play films through iTunes without any problems. When I start playing music using the remote app on my iPhone 3GS after around 5 tracks in it just stops playing and seems to lose my connection. Hoping this is human error on my part?

    I think this is probably a sign that your network could be better than it is.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first.

    Whatever you read was incorrect. You can upgrade directly to Mavericks. It is in the App Store and is free.
    Snow Leopard predates the operating system you already have. That's the reason it will not install on your MacBook Air. You spent $20 needlessly for it, but it's yours to resell if you wish.

I am connected to the internet and I have made books before without any problems. I have tried for the past two weeks at various times and I get this same message each time.

    First confirm that you can create a PDF file of your book as described in this Apple document: iPhoto '11: Preview a book, card, or calendar before you order or print it. Post back with the results.

    Sorry we are unclear as to the external hard drive and its connection to the TC..
    For instance the light that blinks.. is that the TC or external hard disk or what.
    Did you try just rebooting / restart the whole network in correct order.. modem.. router / TC.. external drive.. clients with 2min gap between each.
    Are you actually running Snow Leopard as the profile states?
    How old is the TC?

  • I am trying to connect to my friend's wifi, i have a very strong signal indicated on my ipad, but cannot connect to the internet.  Yesterday i connected without any problem, can anybody tell me why i cannot connect today?

    i am trying to connect to my friend's wifi, i have a very strong signal indicated on my ipad, but cannot connect to the internet.  Yesterday i connected without any problem, can anybody tell me why i cannot connect today?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • I purchased my iPad in your London store on 20th May 2012, serial no. DM*******J8T. I have been purchasing apps from the London store,  without any problems.

    subject:         iPad Problem
    Sirs,
    I purchased my iPad in your London store on 20th May 2012, serial no. DM*******J8T. I have been purchasing apps from the London store, without any problems. Last week, however, receiving a prompt that updates were available, I logged on hoping to update, which resulted in the following window:
    >Account not in this Store.
    Your account is not valid for use in the US Store.
    You must switch to the UK Store before purchasing.<
    I have done nothing to facilitate this change in stores and have  no way of knowing how to switch back to the UK store.
    This is a recent development, I have not had any problems connecting to the UK store before, in fact it happened automatically. Can the fact that I am not actually in the UK now but spend most of my time in Indonesia? This has not effected my purchases from the UK store before, however.
    Please help.
    Best regards,
    Maarten Timmer
