Quicktime 7.0+ with Vista = error 46: can't find or load quicktime activex
For awhile, Quicktime Pro was working on my 32bit Microsoft Vista PC that I built, then sometime around 7.1.5 Internet Explorer would no longer play Quicktime files in my browser. No biggie, but then after 7.1.6 it would not longer load at all. I keep getting Error 46: Can't find or load Quicktime ActiveX control.
If I try launching Quicktime as the administrator, I still get the Error 46. And it just won't load. Even Sony Vegas Video won't render Quicktime files as that gives me an access violation.
I managed to find a Quicktime 7.0.1 installer, so I deinstalled 7.1.6 and installed 7.0.1 and all was well again. The program would launch and play Quicktime files and Sony Vegas Video would render Quicktime files again.
But as soon as I rebooted...Error 46 again...even after downgrading. Something's going on with the permissions and I cant seem to fix it.
The one shining light with 7.0.1 is if I launch it as an Administrator it will work after rebooting. But only if launching it as an Administrator.
7.1.6 will not do this. It will error everytime regardless of launching as an admin or not.
Anyone have any ideas how to solve this? And does anyone know if Apple is working to solve this issue? Hopefully this isn't too limited of a bug, otherwise I might be in for a long wait for a fix.
Hi, all
I thought I would post the link to another thread where I got this working on my machine.

Hope this helps.

Error 46: Can't find or load QuickTime ActiveX control
Have tried many times to download and use QuickTime on my HP Pavillion laptop running Windows 7. Disabled antivirus, firewall, SpySweeper, etc. but to no avail. Uninstalled, reinstalled, etc. Keep getting the same error when attempting to run program. Anyone know what a fix might be? iTunes has also been uninstalled and reinstalled but no help. iTunes seems to work O.K. but many video clips won't work without QuickTime. I would sure appreciate any guidance.
Bryanbgcarl, it's a very interesting post and sorry I couldn't be of more help, but thought I might add this.
http://www.microsoft.com/security/resources/activex-whatis.aspx
Where ActiveX is a add-on. Is this error happening while using the browser with QuickTime? For example in IE 8 browser if you go to Tools>Internet Options>Security>Custom level. There are a number of preferences for ActiveX. For some reason the computer cannot find or load the ActiveX control, but what is hindering it??? It's probably something simple we can't find... -
Need help with Runtime error! Can't find "MediaDatabase" file! Folders are visible!
Hi, I have been searching a lot for an answer to this issue. Elements keeps crashing after about five minuets and giving me "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library" "Runtime Error!" "R6025 - pure virtual function call". I am running Premiere Elements 9.0 on windows 8.1 and I am trying to
rebuild the "mediadatabase.db3" file, but cannot find it. I made my hidden folders visible, and followed the pathway, but I only get this. I have searched and searched but I can't find anything about windows 8.1. Only 7 and vista. Thanks in advance!Look for a line that resembles the following in the
actionscript of the Flash fla files... It is likely to be in the
first frame's code, but may not be.
xmlData.load("teamTSI_en.xml");
the '
xmlData' part of that is not likely to be the same as what's
in your file, it's a variable so it could be anything, and the file
names will be whatever your xml files are.
If you can post that line of code from each of the fla files,
someone may be able to tell you where you need to place the xml
files. -
WLAN driver fails to install on G580 Windows 7 x64 with error "BCM4313: Can not find setup file"
Summary:
I have installed Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on my G580. Everything is working fine except the WLAN driver fails to install with the error "BCM4313: Can not find setup file".
Details:
I bought lenovo G580 with Windows 8. Since my parents are not comfortable with the learning curve of Win 8, I successfully downgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate x64. Everything is working fine but my WLAN card is not recognized because of lack of driver.
The lenovo parts look-up page says I have broadcom WLAN card - CBT BCM4313 MOW HMC WLAN
I looked at lenovo driver downloads site and tried following driver files for Windows 7 and both of them failed to install with the following error. I tried installing other WLAN drivers also but they won't even install as required hardward is not there.
Error - "BCM4313: Can not find setup file"
Drivers Tried:
- http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS028105
- http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS028208
Any help about how to get past this error will be appreciated. The previous Widnows verison (Windows 8) is still on my hard-drive as windows.old folder. Let me know if I can copy a specific file from there.
Thank you.
BJS
Solved!
Go to Solution.Download this driver bcm4313
Start setup and extract the files.After that go to star menu/control panel/system/device manager.There you probably find out that network adapter driver is missing.Choose it and click with right mb for drop menu to show up.Select properties then Driver/Update Drivers...Select to load driver from computer hard drive and choose the path where extract files is.Default path is main partion C: and search for directory named Driver.
And yes...you get "Can not find setup file" error but dont worry.Files needed to instal driver are extract fine. -

I cannot get my new Ipad to be recognised in ITunes so I can Sync my library... I have re-loaded Itunes 64bit but it still comes up with an error saying that I need to load Itunes 64 bit before this Ipad will be recognised... any ideas?
I just found that I can't Sync my Iphone either and it gave the same error code.... it must be a ITunes problem.

Far too much uneccesary information in your post, which only confuses things, a vast amount!
Let's start with iTunes.
Have you updated iTunes to 11.1.5, because the previous version did appear to have an issue about seeing iPods?
With iTunes 11.1.5 installed, look in Edit/Preferences/Devices, (or use the ALT key, followed by the E key and then the F key) and make sure that the box named Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically does not have a tick in the box.
Once you have doen those two things, check to see if the iPod is seen by iTunes.

By the way, what does IOS mean? (I thought IO stood for operating system, but am flummoxed by the S on the end.
Really?
OS stands for Operating System. (In computer speak, IO means Input/Output.)
iOS originally stood for iPhone Operating System, but it now refers to the iPod Touch and iPhone. The iPod Classic, which you have listed in your profile as your iPod, does not use iOS.
I assume that you have been listening to the Podcast in your iTunes on the computer as you cannot transfer it to your iPod. It's what I'd do. -
I have a toshiba lap top computer with vista and I can not get my new iphone to connect all the way .... it says "connected with limited activity". which means I don't get on. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hi all,
Guess I understand what is going on as I'm also experiencing the problem.
Basically the issue is about the iPhone 4's personal hotspot.
I'm trying to hook on personal hotspot to my toshiba laptop but it couldnt work as the connection is limited to local only without Internet access.
The hotspot works well on other laptop and I-devices, but not my toshiba...
Hope to get assistance here. Thanks -

every time i try to download itunes my computer comes ups up with an error code half way through down load error code 2330
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards? -
I believe I had some kind of virus attack. I got everything cleaned up. (I HOPE) In the process of cleaning the virus, I unintalled Firefox because it wouldn't open. Kept getting the error message that Firefox was already open and I had to close out of the sessions or restart the computer. After restarting the computer several times and not being able to find any open sessions in task manager, I uninstalled. When trying to reinstall, I get the error message "can not find archive file." I've tried downloading Firefox from cnet as well as the Mozilla site to no avail. Please help. I'm getting tired of using Chrome already!
Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!

After loading Acrobat XI, Facebook pages have errors. Can't find what changed in IE8. XP OS.
After loading Acrobat XI, Facebook pages are blank with errors. Can't find what happened to IE8. XP OS. Any suggestions?
I agree. The Facebook failure must have been coincidental in that machine. I have a notebook that I loaded the same Acrobat into and it's Facebook is OK - It's on Win 7 OS. This laptop's (XP) Facebook works, but it doesn't have the Acrobat loaded into it. Also have a networked desktop for business on Win 2000 and it's Facebook works too. Haven't tried another browser in the suspect machine yet. There's definitely something wrong with it's IE8. What it boils down to in it, is that it won't logout of Facebook properly. I have to logout on some other machine. Then when I login on the bad one, Facebook only partially loads it's pages and I can't logout from it.

Apple says Reminders works with Outlook, but I can't find where the lists are displayed in Office or Outlook once they are synced. Any suggestions?
I'll guess you've already discovered the answer to this, but just in case:
Reminders works with Outlook tasks by syncing with iCloud, or through Exchange. You can't sync iOS Reminders with Outlook Tasks via USB/iTunes (like you can do with Notes, Calendar, Contacts).
So the marketing material on Reminders is a little misleading in that it's not specific enough -- there is no syncing without one of those intermediary systems mentioned above.
On a side note, syncing Tasks/Reminders via iCloud is not very good in my opinion:
Requires that you sync to the cloud, even if you have no other use for storing personal data in the cloud.
Requires that the iCloud Control Panel be installed on your PC (not sure about Mac).
After syncing, you'll find new Calendar and Task groups called "iCloud" have been created in Outlook. The calendar groups appear to be created even if you're only syncing Tasks/Remminders (not sure why).
Reminders are stored in the new group (noted above) called "iCloud" rather than in your default Tasks group. This seems to me to be a sort of "parallel" sync, rather than a true sync with Outlook. There are oter implications of your synced tasks being in the new group that I won't go into here, but you can search the interwebs to learn more.
In my own case, I tried iCloud syncing, decided that I didn't like it for the reasons stated above, and then uninstalled (Control Panel and new Outlook groups) with no apparent ill effects.
Though I don't guarantee you'll have the same results, it might be worth a try to see if it suits your purposes. -
