Quicktime 7.2 upgrade

I downloaded an upgrade for quicktime 7.2 yesterday. Now quicktime wont open. Get an unexpected quit when I open it. Downloaded Perian and still no joy? Can't play anything and my sound seems to have gone as well.
Would appreciate any help.

I just updated to Quicktime 7.2 player, and videos on youTube and other places do NOT work! I get the faded Q with question mark in all of my browsers: Safari, Netscape, Firefox and IE... I have tried all the fixes suggested in another thread, and none still work. Actually, when I upgraded my flash player to 9, Safari's Quicktime stopped working and initially it was the only one that did.
And the irony is that I upgraded so I could BUY (pay for) Quicktime Pro I'm a filmmaker and I need my browsers to play videos!!!! HELP!

Mac OS X 10.6 includes QuickTime versions 10.0 and 7.6.3. The QuickTime 7 player will only be present if a QuickTime Pro key was present at the time of installation, or if specified as part of a custom install, or individually downloaded:
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl923
Snow Leopard update 10.6.4 included an update to 7.6.6 (if installed). You can install it from the above link even though it says for 10.6.3. It's the same version of QuickTime Player 7.6.6.
(Only QuickTime Player 7.6.3 or 7.6.6 can be updated to "Pro".)

QuickTime 7.6 upgrade for Tiger breaks system

I am also having problems on Tiger (10.4.11) after upgrading to QuickTime 7.6. Upon reboot after the install completed, I wind up with the login prompt on the console (not the login window, but a true unix login prompt). Logging in and dumping the last portion of /var/log/system.log reveals:

As you can see, I believe there are two errors. The first is the loginwindow error:

Googling brought up a possible solution whose work around seems to be
discussed here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1102633
However, the main problem seems to be (perhaps?) a carbon related issue. I am seeing any applications that make use of the Carbon framework seem to be failing.
As you can see from the system.log excerpt, ifcstart is crashing. The crash log contains:

[there is more but I believe you see the issue].
I am also seeing SecurityAgent crash in a similar manner.
Without a UI (only a shell prompt) how do I back out the QuickTime upgrade?

I tried that and it did not work. The paid functions are still grayed out.
There are three possibilities here:
1) The QT 7 Pro is not activated. In this case, the registration window will not display the QT logo with the word "Pro" superimposed on it, the phrase "QuickTime 7 Pro" will not be displayed below the "Registration Code:" entry, and the "Buy" button will not disappear. (I.e., I assume your version should look something like this if the code is accepted...)
2) You don't have a movie clip loaded. Unless you load a movie, most of the QT 7 Pro features will be grayed out since their functions are often contextual and, therefore, dependent on the data loaded. Additionally, the file loaded must be QT compression and/or edit compatible. For instance, if you try to trim an MPEG-1 video, the associated controls/options are grayed out because QT recognizes that this compression format is not editable at the frame level.
3) Your QT 7 Player application is corrupted/broken for some reason. In this case you would likely have to "extract" a copy of the player and replace the app in your Applications folder. However, this is a very rare chance of happening.
So, at this point you must determine which specific problem you have.

What is up with the Quicktime 7.2 upgrade, it DOES NOT WORK!

Quicktime 7.2 Internet Plug-In does not work with Safari? I am very up to date with all the upgrades to maintain security, and this most recent "upgrade" while may be plugging a security hole for the iPhone does not maintain past functionality. I have searched and done most if not all the suggested fixes (repairing permissions, removing Internet Plug-Ins, installing most up to date flash player, un checking Flash Media MIME setting, even forcing Safari to load w/ Rosetta) and am very disappointed with having to force Safari into Rosetta and shocked to hear the suggestion to abandon Apple altogether and use Firefox. I am using Safari to get away from Netscape and third party software to AVOID conflicts. Worse Firefox does in-fact work making me doubt its' security for internet banking.
When is Apple going to FIX this Quicktime Update so that it works?!

Same here. I don't have in Intel Mac, so it's not a Rosetta issue. I've patiently followed every tip I've read in many discussions. Reinstalled Quicktime. Installed Flash 9 Upgrade. Changed Quicktime settings (unchecked enable flash, unchecked Flash Media under MIME settings). Trashed Quicktime preferences.
However in Safari, on upon trying to open any movie trailer on the Quicktime web site
http://www.apple.com/trailers/
or even watch the iLife 08 guided tour
http://www.apple.com/ilife/guidedtour/small.html
I get a Quicktime logo with a question mark. In Firefox (which I've also reinstalled) it quits unexpectedly when trying to open a movie trailer. In my own experiments, I've opened another admin account on my computer and when I log in there, everything works fine. You say "well just use that account then", that would mean me having to transfer all my files to the other account which I don't want to do unless someone has a really quick way to do so. Also, in checking the system preferences for Quicktime under both accounts, I don't see any difference. Both accounts are accessing the same software from the root level Applications folder, so why does it work in one account and not the other? Someone help, as I don't think I can read another 10 page discussion on this.

Trouble with iTunes-Quicktime-Os X upgrade

I recently bought a used iMac. When trying to install Firefox i get the message that i need the latest MacOsX, trying to upgrade OsX i need the latest version of iTunes, tyring to start iTunes i´m told i need Quicktime 7.5.5 or later. Then i buy Quicktime Pro 7, but still iTunes will not start and continue asking for Quicktime 7.5.5 or later.
I have a MacBook Pro with all the latest software, but i guess i cant transfer i to my iMac.
What to do ?

In order to get current, you need to buy Snow Leopard 10.6.x, this is still available from Apple's online store. IT IS NOT SOLD IN STORES!!!
Next you will need to update SL to version 10.6.8, you can use Apple 10.6.8 update combo to do this.
Next using the Mac App Store upgrade to Mountain Lion 10.8.5. This is assuming your iMac has the system requirements to run ML, which are:
General Requirements
OS X v10.6.8 or later
2GB of memory
8GB of available space
Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
Supported
Models
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)

MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)

Quicktime 7.4 upgrading error: server off-line?

Hi Guys, hope someone would be able kindly to advise me on this. Yesterday I have upgraded my Quicktime to version 7.4 by downloading free version from Apple web-site (originally I had a 6.xx.xx version installed from my photo-camera software). Before the installation I’ve deleted the previous file version. The problem I’m experiencing now is that when I start the Quick Time by clicking on it, it stops (freezing) in the loading status and looks like not connecting to where it attempts to. Then if I am choosing in the menu bar to update the existing software, the following error message comes up:
A connection with the Quick Time software server could not be established. The computer may be having trouble accessing the internet or the server may be off-line”.
But my internet is surely connected and I was able to successfully update earlier program version. I’ve tried re-installing a couple of times, but nothing changes. Would it be better again to install the older version file then? Can anyone please give me a hand with this?

Hi Guys, as I can't see many responses in this forum, can someone who's using QT 7.2 with Windows please do me a huge favour and just try to go for Update Existing and let me know if it is working. Looks like I have the same issue on other machine with elder version (6.1), what appears to be really strange.

ISight/Quicktime issues since upgrading to Lion

Hello,
I have tried everything but I can't seem to come up with a solution. Problems have arose ever since upgrading to Lion on my early-2008 Macbook Unibody. I have seen many users on this board saying that Lion has broken their iSight as well. Here are my issues.
iSight
- seen in System Profiler (Hooray)
- cannot be seen by any application
- does not work with any other user
Quicktime
- fails for screen recording, audio recording, and video recording ("The Operation Could Not Be Completed")
- can play movies just fine
Solutions I have tried
1. Uninstalled everything 3rd party
2. PMU reset (several times)
3. Repaired Permissions
Any other assistance would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.

• If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
   suggestions do not help you, (are you certain that you used
   the correct "reset" procedure?) continue with the following.
• Use Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
   download and apply the 10.7.2 Combo Update:
     http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1459
• Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
   that completes the Combo update.
Properly applying the Combo version of updates
can sometimes correct problems like yours.

White screens for quicktime movies upon upgrade

Just in case anyone runs into this..
I just upgraded my macbook to 10.4.8 and as soon as I did I couldnt watch any .mov files.. not off my drive, not off a cd, not off the quicktime website.
Just a blank white screen came up. These were not non native quicktime codecs.
Reinstalling quicktime from apple's website directly did fix the problem.

QuickTime Pro now includes an "Export for Web" feature (File menu).
This method makes a "reference movie" that can "detect" your page visitors connection device (and speed) and serve up just the right file. It also makes the "poster" image file and writes the correct html page code to copy/paste into a new or existing Web page.
The poster image also show the "mouse hand" when the cursor move over it and includes a "click to play" graphic.

Quicktime MPEG-2 upgrade purchase

I just purchased an upgrade for quicktime to view MPEG2 for 19.99.... (VOB files?)
I bought this mac and all I feel like all I'm doing is purchasing stuff (software and hardware) to make things work that automatically worked or were free on PC... ugh...
I got a confirmation email of my purchase, but no link or code key/auth code to the upgrade.. Can I update this plug in via Quicktime or do I go through MAC's site? other? thx for any help.

The purchase is only required if you want to convert mpg-2 to something like DV with MPEG Streamclip. The Apple Pro applications that need the MPEG-2 Component come with it included.
You can view mpg-2 VOB files with the free VLC Media Player.

HT3678 Quicktime 7 pro upgrade???

What if I don't have my Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard Install DVD? How can I upgrade for the Quicktime 7 pro, when I have a license for it already?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You have Lion, so you have to download QuickTime Player 7 for OS X Lion and Mountain Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL923
Then, see "Information for QuickTime 7 Pro users" > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3678?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

ITunes/Quicktime 7.3 upgrade error - can't uninstall previous version..?

While trying to install the new version of iTunes and Quicktime, I get an error while installing:
I checked the folder, and the iTunes.msi file is definitely there.
When I quit the installer, it said to try the Tools > Download Only option in the apple update software. I did it, and opened the iTunes.msi file, and got the same error.
I also tried uninstalling iTunes from Add/Remove Programs, but the same box in the picture above pops up.
Any suggestions?
iPod Shuffle 2nd Generation Windows XP Service Pack 2. Custom built PC. MB: Chaintech 7VJL APOJEE. Chipset: VIA KT333

With those ones try the following procedure:
first, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. if it goes, good. if it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to itunes.
next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. use it to clear any existing itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information from the PC.
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
next, use the the following document as a guide for manual removal of leftover itunes and quicktime program files:
Removing iTunes and QuickTime for Windows
now try another itunes install. does it go through properly this time?

Quicktime 7.3 upgrade & iMovie 6 capture freeze

It seems that since I upgraded to QT7.3 iMovie will freeze at a random point during capture with built in isight. This makes my boss very unhappy after recording 3 min of his weekly video blog.
Anyone have any info on this or is downgrading to QT 7.2 the only option? I hope not because that means an entire reinstall of Tiger.
Message was edited by: Brad2610a

LIke Windows Vista doesn't have ANY issues working with older Windows XP applications.
WIth FCP 5.1.4, I am running QT 7.1.6...that is as far as I will go with the OLDER application. With FCP 6 I am running QT 7.3.
Getting things to work properly takes knowing what works with what.

TRYING to re-install quicktime pro after upgrade to leopard

When I purchased QTP I was running tiger os/X then upgraded to leopard. I have all my online reciepts with the keycode and it wont install. how do I get it back. I tried registering then entered the keycode and the site is trying to make me pay for it again.

well, the same registered name and have just updated my personal info cause I got rid of my .mac address. I can still confirm who I am at the apple store.

Loosing QuickTime Pro when upgrading software?

I have heard some people complaining that when they update from QuickTime 6 Pro to 7 that it brought them back to basic, will this happen in the future, say from Pro 7 to 8?

I had to go "Pro" when QuickTime 3 was released. It cost $30.
When version 4 shipped they gave us older users a break and let us (QT 3 Pro users) have it for no charge.
Version 5 cost me another $30. So did versions 6 and, now 7.
Trust to assume that version 8 will cost me another $30.
I don't care that much. They only do a new version number when dramatically new technology dictates.
I've gotten my $120 worth from Apple.
