Quicktime 7.1.6 update caused QT to override all Flash plugins in Safari

After updating Quicktime Pro 7.1.5 to 7.1.6 I have found Quicktime is now overriding all Flash plug-in content in Safari. I tried re-installing Flash, but it didn't work. All I get in any Flash plug-in site is a Quicktime logo with a question mark over it. I also tried re-updating Quicktime, but no luck.
The update was yesterday, and I haven't done any software changes lately. Prior Quicktime updates have not caused any problem.
This is the first time an automatic update has caused a problem.
Apple customer support wants $49.95 to solve this even though it is their update that caused the problem.
I haven't found any way to reset/edit Safari plug-ins
Any ideas on how to solve this?

Hi,
This issue is being discussed in this thread
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=946194&tstart=0
I have the same issue on both my Intel and PPC macs - I have set quicktime to be the default for flash and that appears to have fixed some of the issues, however I still get the big "?" where my enhanced podcasts were?
Everything works fine in firefox though.
This is a great way to 'fix" a security flaw in quicktime/safri - by disabling its use.
B!

    How do I install recommended updates, when I click on adobe flash plugin update now buttons, I hit a dead end on oracle's website, how do I complete the update?

    First, grab the Adobe uninstaller from here:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
    Then download Flash 10.3.183.90 from here - about halfway down the page:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
    (Released 6/11/2013) Flash Player 10.3.183.90 (61.1 MB)
    IMO, the best version of Flash for WinXP. Adobe kept up with security updates for 10.3 for WinXP users long after Flash 11.0 came out in 2011 for Vista and newer versions of Windows.
    Run the uninstaller, then reboot your operating system.
    Then you can run the Flash installer, with Firefox closed, of course.
    ''Note, if you still use IE you'll need to reinstall the ActiveX version of Flash for IE. That uninstaller removes all versions of Flash that might be installed,''

    The flash plugin is constantly crashing in FF 25.0.1 for me, starting last week. After trying all sorts of workarounds (last thing I tried was updating to Flash 12 Beta), I gave up. Now using Chrome to post this message.
    Very frustrating.
    Will wait a couple of weeks before trying FF again.

  • Itunes 6.5 & Quicktime 7.1.2 update causing no launch of Itunes & other app

    Hi!
    Pardon my language, but what the f#&! just happened? I updated to Itunes 6.5 and Quicktime 7.1.2 and when I go to launch Itunes...it just bounces in the dock - then nothing. Same thing when I go to launch another application (music) called Intact from Native Instruments.
    I did a "force quit" and see that it is showing that I can quit both of these applications, but I have never seen them after the lauch attempt.
    I see that this has been tabled before, to a degree, but I cannot seem to get any answers on steps to solve. If you have the time & a few thoughts, I would appreciate it.

    Thanks - been away from the studio for a few days...this looks like a good place to start and I will get into that potential solution and re-post when I know the result.
    Best Regards...
    Think i've got the solution for you.
    I refer you to

    Which pretty much refers you to:

    Seems iTunes and Quicktime conflict with Digidesigns
    hardware/software in the core driver area or some
    such jargon.
    This explains why my iPod would launch iTunes - i had
    to unplug the M-box to plug in the pod.
    Hope this helps.
    Note that the apple article talks about Protools 6.9,
    but the digidesign page talks about 6.5. When you
    get to the nitty-gritty, it also works for v6.4.
    Convenient, because that is what i am running.

  • J2SE update caused Skype problems..... ?????

    Good morning everybody.
    I hope my post will not be removed - I tried to get help from Skype support with no help, and since an Apple update caused my Intel iMac some problems, i hope this is the right place for my question
    A few days ago i received a message regarding automatic update from Apple regarding:
    Front R update
    QuickTime update
    J2SE50 Release 4
    When trying to install, i got the message that its not possible on my machine? So i was adviced from Apple support to manually install these updates, which i did, with success...
    Until i tried my Skype , and thats what i get in the chat-instant messaging window whenever i try to write a message to another Skype user:
    <div class="incoming context"> <div class="message-head"> <span class="sender"><a href="skypechatcontact://%senderScreenName%">%sender% <span class="date"><b> %time% <div class="clear"> <p>%message%<div id="insert">
    all i wrote is "testing" ...
    I believe its a problem with JAVA, so i was on the phone with Apple supprt for 2 hours, and after all the checks, they said that can not help me, as it is a problem of Skype ....
    Please note that the users i write to, CAN c what i write, but i can not c it, or c what they write me.
    Please also note that i erased all the Skype preferences, and all file sfrom library and applications support, tried to reinstall, erased all again, then tried to install the new 1.5 gold, and then Beta 2, but all the time the same problem...
    Would be very happy if someone here has any idea how to solve this issue... I looked and asked alot in Skype forums, seems that more people got my problem, but nobody was able to find a solution...
    Thank you very much for all the people here that try to help.
    Have a great day everybody,

    Intel iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Hi, thanks alot for your reply.
    Well, after Apple support , checking with me some issues on my Intel imac decided its all ok with my OS, i thought would be good idea to erasae any Skype trace from my OS, after that i installed again several different versions of Skype, the 1.5 and the 2 beta, whcih worked great before it all started...
    And i just keep getting this "gibrish" codes instead of the text i type..
    Regarding the permissions, must admit i have no idea about this issue, c, i was using XP until buying the mac, so im learning all the time...
    I will be looking now for the info regarding permissions, and then try it.

  • OS 10.4.10 Update Causing Audio Popping (AND HUM) Issues:

    OS 10.4.10 Update Causing Audio Popping (AND HUM) Issues:
    The problem on my Intel Mac mini with external Klipsch speakers (two mid-range/high and a subwoofer) is REAL obvious as the system emits a hum like a Spinal Tap amplifier turned up to #11 when 10.4.10 powers down the audio circuitry
    Then, if I play a song in iTunes, it first pops and the hum disappears right before playing.
    Quite annoying. I restored the mini from a recent backup to 10.4.9. Problem gone.
    I'm glad I test updates on the mini before applying them to my Intel iMac 24. I guess I'll just hide & watch what happens before doing any more updates.
    Here's what I sent to Apple tech support:
    Guys/Gals (OS X Engineers):
    Concerning the Snap, Crackle Pop Audio problem in the 10.4.10 update:
    Please. Just do the right thing and fix the audio.
    There is no need to power cycle the audio subsystem to save .0005 amps on the laptop line.
    And then to make your Mac mini/iMac/other desktop users have to put up with it when using AC power is ridiculous.
    Put the audio subsystem back like it was in 10.4.9 and let the laptop battery freaks looking for mini-amp savings get a "work-a-round".
    Crikey!

    Libby,
    Backup is unable to make a restorable by Disk Utility backup. You can restore pieces of the software as outlined in my FAQ about backing up user data:
    http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
    But to be able to restore a backup with Disk Utility, you need a cloning utility to have made the backup.
    I suggest starting a new thread here, where someone else could help you out better:

    First off, you'll get a wider audience who may be able to solve your problem. Secondly, responses to you won't confuse the original poster with solutions that don't apply to them. And thirdly, you'll know for certain whether or not a response applies to you.

    Before I updated my iPod I had all of the songs to an album that I bought on iTunes. After I updated my iPod I only have 5 of those songs from the album. I would like to know how I can get the rest of the songs cause I already paid for the album and I went on my computer and it said that I have to pay for them even though I already paid for the whole album. So what do I do?

    Sync with the same computer iTunes that you normally sync with.

    My ipod touch 4g just updates today on itunes and the update caused more trouble than good for me. My ipod will no longer show me the battery percentage in the top right hand corner and I am not allowed to drag other applications to the bottom panel. Also my itunes doesn't allow "enable disk use" anymore. Can anyone help? My ipod now says that it's the 4.3.4 version

  • Recent windows 7 updates caused serious conflicts??

    I have two NI PCIe-1433 boards and the NI Max v5.4 installed. Recent win 7 (64 bit) automatic updates, within the last 10 days seemed to cause serious problems. Win 7 couldn't boot any more. Sometimes computer turns on and off by itself before the windows logo shows up. Sometimes it crashes before I can login.
    I did a fresh reinstallation of win 7. The same problem happened after some automatic updates. I can boot and use windows 7 if I unplug both NI cards. This makes me think the problem is in NI driver/card. I'm reporting it here to see if anybody experiences similar things.
    Earlier this year Win 7 automatic updates caused a problem with my Canon printer/scanner. Canon supplied scan software still does not work today.

    Hi Jeremy
    Thank you for responding. I do not know which update. I know it's due to some update(s) that happened recently.
    After I reinstalled the fresh Windows 7 (64 bit), I installed NI IMAQ software. I was able to use both boards to acquire images at that point. However Windows 7 kept updating itself. Later the same problem happened again.
    After unplugging both boards, I have been using the computer for 2 days without a problem. My computer's power supply is 650W. Does the boards require a lot of power?

  • Here is a solution to the Quicktime 7.1.5 Update conflicts - it works!

    Any program that is having a problem since the Quicktime 7.1.5 Update should benefit from reverting back to QT version 7.1.3 . My TurboTax works again, because I downgraded to QT 7.1.3 .
    You can't manually remove all of the files necessary to uninstall QT 7.1.5. Don't even try.
    Don't uninstall and re-install your programs. It is a waste of time, and will not fix the problem.
    You can choose to re-install the operating system, and it should work. It is not necessary, though, and is a hassle.
    This is how you can easily downgrade QuickTime 7.1.5 to version 7.1.3:
    1. Download Quicktime 7.1.3 installer:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktime713formac.html
    2. Mount the installer package (Double click QuickTimeInstallerX.dmg so that it opens and shows the open box icon labeled QuickTime713.pkg). This is very important.
    3. Download and install Pacifist from this location:
    http://www.charlessoft.com/
    4. Open Pacifist (You can do so without going through the registration process. You can do that later if you decide to pay.)
    5. Drag the QuickTime713.pkg icon to the Pacifist dialog box. When you release it, another window opens with a list of files. The top file is labeled "Contents of QuickTime713.pkg."
    (Please note that if you mistakenly select the unmounted .dmg file into Pacifist instead of the .pkg, there will be an installation but without an effect. )
    6. Click to highlight "Contents of QuickTime713.pkg."
    7. Go to the "File" Menu in the Menu Bar and choose "Install Files to Default Locations" from the pulldown menu.
    A dialog box will open asking if you want to install entire contents. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT TO DO.
    8. Be sure to check the box that says "Use Administrator Privileges" if it is not already checked.
    9. Click "Install" and carefully read any further instructions as they pop up. You will respond with the equivalent of YES every time, even if asked to replace every file for QuickTime. Take your time, and don't assume that you know what the instructions say without reading them.
    10. When the install process is finished, restart the computer. You are through with Pacifist, so don't open it again (unles you decide to Register and pay).
    11. Once again, open QuickTimeInstallerX.dmg. Double click QuickTime713.pkg to do a normal installation one more time. After the install is done, restart your Mac one last time. That's it.
    By the way - NEVER keep your tax return data file in the same folder as the TurboTax application. You might accidentally delete it when uninstalling TurboTax. Put it in a folder with your other tax prep documents.
    It took me approximately one hour from the time I started downloading QT 7.1.3 and Pacifist until I was completely finished and using TurboTax again. I have a 400 Mz PowerPC Sawtooth G4, so your time may be better. Good luck!
    Oh, and don't forget to pay for Pacifist. They deserve it!

    I downloaded QuickTime 7.x security update (recommended by my VP), but I cannot run. I am getting the message 'Unknown Publisher', but when I click run, nothing happens?

    Hello,
    Seems someone from Apple corrected the problem.
    I just downloaded a new version, again, due to upgrade to a larger HDD, and the new installer does have Apple name identified.
    So try it again.
    Good luck.

  • ITunes 11.4 update cause issue with AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext

    Along with many others iMac users, the iTunes 11.4 update cause a window that informs that the system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used.

    Am on Snow Leopard and downloaded and installed the update to ITUNES yesterday - Itunes itself installed okay - but I did get the same system extension cannot be used.
    I don't have any ethernet devices - so I checked the System/Library folder and the date on the file Is July 13, 2009. 
    My IPOD (probably now classic because of age) synced okay through USB port, and everything is working fine.    As the update was to allow more devices to sync with ITUNES it may be the error message is not correct one.
    Seriously - Apple needs to get out of Silicon valley - the message if correct is for techies - not for users who just want the software to update without problems.    Lately Apple is preaching to their own choir.
    I did send feedback through Itunes to Apple - -- If you are experiencing crashes after this update make sure you send the crash report to apple explaining that it is happening after this install  -- also call or schedule a call with apple support --
