Quick time installation failed

Got iTunes 4. Want to upgrade to 7. Every time I try to install Quick Time (either installing iTunes 7 or QT alone) this error message occurs: Folder "C:" has a non valid font.
Can anyone help me?
Many thanks, alvise
Dell Dimension 8200   Windows XP Pro   service pack 2

I have the same error and this is what I did to fix the problem.
1. uninstall previous version of itunes and quicktime
2. go to download this software http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;290301
3. install windows installer cleanup and uninstall quicktime or itunes if you saw it appears in the program.
4. restart your computer (this is optional since I dind't restart my comp)
5. reinstall the newest version of itune+quicktime package.

  • Trouble with quick time installation

    whenever i try to install quick time the installer gives me the message "there is a problem with this windows installer package. a program required for this install to complete could not be run." i have tried uninstalling and re installing, repairing the installation, installing an older version of quick time, and using the windows installer cleanup program but none of it has worked this problem also occurs when trying to install itunes

    Did you ever resolve this issue with quicktime? I noticed your name is on a lot of the forums that post questions regarding quicktime and itunes updates and problems with Bonjour, so I thought I'd ask you for help:
    I bought a new computer in February with Windows 7. I was never able to get quicktime to work properly and now when my computer tells me I need to update, it keeps giving me error messages:
    "Errors occurred while installing the updates. If the problem persists, choose Tools-Download Only and try installing manually." I did that and when I choose Itunes it gives me this message:
    "Service 'Bonjour Service' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." I tried that thing you suggested on another string of giving myself "permission" under the security tabs. It didn't work.
    Please help -- is this a Windows 7 thing?

  • Itunes 10 and Quick Time Installation on Windows 7

    I have installed iTunes 10.6.3.25 on a Windws 7 Operating system and I had what appears to be the same problems of not being able to intall the software and I followed the trobleshooting guide on:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926
    I have now been able to install the software in the automatically selected folder of C:\Program Files(x86) however I am still expereincing the following problems:
    - I was unable to launch itunes however I launched it in Safe Mode and the following messages are received in order:
    "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly"
    The only option to select at this point is "OK" once selected iTunes then opens and then the the next message is received:
    "iTunes: iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found
    The procedure entry point I_NetNameCanonicalize could not be located in the dynamic link library NETAPI32.dll"
    The only option to select at this point is "OK" once selected iTunes finishes opening.
    Further I note that following the initial installation of iTunes Quick Time Player did not automatically install so I downloaded from http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/ QuickTime 7.7.2. Once downloaded I attempted to install the executable file (as administrator) and after the standard message of Windows 7 appears as follows:
    "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?" (Program name QuickTime....etc)
    I select "Yes"
    Then a dialog box appears very breifly that normally comes up when installing new software, however before the dialog box populates with any information it dissapears and the installation process stops.
    So once iTunes has finshed opening I attempt to open one of the movies in my library and as expected the following message appears:
    "This movie requires Quick Time, which is not included in this version of iTunes.
    To play this movie, instal Quick Time."
    Assistance would be appreciated.

    I got it to work now ...
    -Unistall the current iTunes on your computer.
    - go to http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1427
    -Go all the way down the page and download the iTunes through the given link
    ----------Download for iTunes 10.4.1 for Windows  (64 - bit) here:  iTunes 10.4.1 for Windows 64-bit.
    -Once downloaded if a message window pops up with a message "the file itunes library.itl cannot be read"
    Just go to My documents-> Music folder -> iTunes folder -> delete library.itl if existing or add it if it doesn't exist.
    it worked for me so I believe that it should
    Good luck

  • Quick Time installation - language

    Hello,
    I live in Brazil and I downloaded the Quicktime installer while on holidays in Las Vegas and stored in a pen-drive as I wanted to install the software in English language. However, when I try to install the software (in my computer in Brazil) it automatically starts to install the software in Portuguese. I've opted a while back to buy a computer with Windows Vista in English and I want to keep everything in English. What do I have to do to install Quicktime in English? Any help is appreciated as if it's not possible, I'll have to look for a different software I can choose the language of. Thanks in advance, Ana.

    Hi! I'm having the same issue! Sadly in Spain they don't sell PCs with Windows in English. So, I got it in Spanish.
    I was able to install all the soft I use in English -even Safari, though I had to play a bit to get it-, but Quicktime installs in Spanish and even after deleting all es.lproj dirs it's still in Spanish.
    Were you able to solve it? And if so, how?

  • ILM First Time Installation Fails with compilation errors

    I am using database version 10.1.0.4.2, and Apex version 3.0.0.00.20,
    These both are on the same machine.

    Then the installation terminates.
    Please help.
    regards

    I am sorry to hear that you are still having difficulties with the installation. I set up a system that is as close to your configuration as I could replicate, with a 10gR1 database and Apex 3.0, and did not have any issue installing the ILM Assistant.
    It is possible that your install kit may have been corrupted during the modifications. I could build a new kit with the proper changes for your setup and send this directly to you if you would like.
    Alternatively, the problem may be with your Application Express installation. Try to verify that this was installed properly, and that the underlying schema account (FLOWS_030000) is unlocked and that you are using its proper password when installing ILM.
    Thanks,

    I tried to export frames to generate a movie, and found that I only can SAVE it as .mov file. But, in this case, the file size is too big like 2.7 G. I tired to export it to make it smaller, and turned out to be failed.
    Quick Time says "Failed: Export process terminated unexpectedly (11)". I have to make this movie ASAP. Does anybody know how I can solve this?
    Thank you in advance.

  • I cannot reinstall I-tunes and QuickTime. I keep getting error " The older version of Quick Time cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group."

    Please help!  Im ready to throw my ipod and I-tunes in the trash.  For some reason I was required to reinstall my quicktime......when I did that I came up with all sorts of errors that said I needed to re-install my I-Tunes. I went through all of the steps but when the installation process gets to the Quick Time installation I get the error "The older version of Quick Time cannot be removed....................... " .  I cant get my itunes re-install and I cannot get a newer version of Quick Time either. I went through the whole process of deleting Itunes and Quick Times files........but that didnt work either. I aslo tried the windows clean-up on majorgeek.com but that didnt help at all either........ Please help!

    I aslo tried the windows clean-up on majorgeek.com but that didnt help at all either
    Walk us through what happened with CleanUp, Michelle. In particular, was there no entry for QuickTime in the list of programs in CleanUp?

  • Quick Time removal

    I installed the new version of Itunes to my computer windows 2003. I got the message error for Quick time installation, and after looking in the internet I understood that I have to remove the new quicktime and install the old version. The problem is the quicktime does not show in the removal list of the control panel so I removed it with MS Windows Installer Cleanup. It doesn’t show up in the list anymore but when I try to install the older version I get the message that a newer version is already installed on my computer. I really don’t understand why you’re making a new version without checking with the OS. I would appreciate any help in order to allow me to make Itunes working again with the windows 2003. I use this program just to fill my IPOD otherwise I would never touch an Apple product.

    I got a tip to download an uninstaller program and then use it to uninstall quicktime. IT WORKED!!! Here's what I did:
    I downloaded the pro uninstaller ($39.99) from http://www.ursoftware.com/.
    I uninstalled quicktime, then itunes and then restarted my computer.
    I then downloaded quicktime only from itunes.com then downloaded itunes.
    I did not lose any of my purchased downloads during this process.
    It worked for me, hope it works for you.
    Please post if you have success.

  • Quick time advice needed

    first of all where can i get quick time 7 for mac every time i go on the apple website it keeps giving me the windows installer where the **** is the mac quick time installer.
    i am currently using os x 10.4.9 on a d,a with upgraded processors duel 1 ghz. but my quick time progrgram keeps crashing every time i try to watch an oldish quicktime file i have i keep getting error messages from a fire wire external hard drive

    "i get lots of errors going off some times it works other times it shows no sound or bleeping noises or error messages im wondering if the hard drive as a problem with it"
    Are you talking about your Software Update control panel? If so, then you need to cross-post in the Forums of whichever model Mac you have & the Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger Forums
    You will also need to advise exactly what those errors stated so that the knowledgeable users in the above forums can properly advise you on troubleshooting solutions.
    In the mean time the following Knowledge Base Article may be of some use:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695 Troubleshooting Automatic Software Update in Mac OS X
    Your system info confirms you are only using OS 10.4 which is currently outdated & not compatible w/the currentl version of QuickTime.
    You need to update your OS & possibly other things for your model Mac.

    This may or may not be the right place to put this, but I can't seem to figure out how to post a new thread...
    For those having trouble with upgrading itunes due to quicktime upgrade problems this is what worked for me:
    Use this link to install the Windows install cleanup and remove EVERYTHING apple and quicktime related.
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;290301
    Once this is download...run application from where ever you saved file...then open up and delete all apple and quicktime stuff, RESTART, then download itunes again from website.
    For those with connection to itunes store...Connection refused
    This worked for me:
    1. start menu
    2. run
    3. msconfig
    4. services tab
    5. click on all apple and quicktime boxes
    6. apply
    7. restart computer
    Hopefully someone else will find these helpful and pass them along to the appropriate places.

  • 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.
