Quicktime 7 and ITunes Problems

I am a newbie and I downloaded the Quicktime 7 and Itunes 5.0 package. It installed correctly, but it won't let me open Itunes. It says I have Quicktime 6.5 and that I need QT 7 to run Itunes 5. Do I have to uninstall QT 6.5 before the QT7 download? I am at a loss. Someone please help!

I upgraded all three downloads - iTunes, Safari and QuickTime and was unable to open iTunes after install. I read through some of these suggestions ans I installed QuickTime again, but chose the second option -- WITHOUT iTunes. I did not UNINSTALL anything. And after doing this I was able to access iTunes again.

QuickTime X and iTune pauses.

WHY QuickTime X and iTUNE PAUSES RANDOMLY??
Is this a bug or what? When i try to watch movie, it just pause randomly for about 3 - 5 seocnds. Now even my google chrome is pausing. This is totally painful and ridiculous. Why apple do not release and update for this ****?
FYI, i did all the possible fixes from installing clean Snow Leopard until installing codec and disk permissions.
Can someone from Apple reply on this issue?
Someone please tell me how to fix this problem, this is my first Mac and got totally disappointed.

You will be unlikely to get anybody from Apple to reply. If it's a bug one avenue for getting them to deal with it is to click on the 'Contact us' at the bottom of this page navigate to the lower part of the 3rd column on the page that opens and select the best choice for feedback. Give as much detail as you can about the problem. They won't usually respond to you directly but if they can replicate the problem they will include a correction in a later update.
Having said this it is possible that there is some corruption in the software which could be corrected with a re-install of the software. Unfortunately some installations don't install as perfectly as we would hope, especially if we don't follow the installation instructions completely - I'm not suggesting that you have done this, just another check to consider.

When downloading updates for Quicktime 7 and Itunes 10 I keep getting an error saying that files shared by these updates has an invalid signature and that the downloaded has been removed.

When downloading updated for Quicktime 7 and Itunes 10 I keep getting an error saying that files shared by these updates has an invalid signature and that the downloaded has been removed. If I don't get that message I get a message saying that the download was unsuccesful and that in order to download I need to go to tools and then select dowload only. Please help I really want to update my iphone!

Thanks for helping out, but I already tried these steps.
I even tried this on a iMac with similar results. The only difference was that the errorcode was called 2001 instead of 21.
Today I took the phone to www.iphoneambulancen.dk. A guy (in Aarhus, Denmark) that specializes in iPhone repairs. I figured, that given his occupation he'd seen most errorcdes. Two hours later, he called me back, and told me that he had replaced the battery.
So, it turns out that a broken battery can cause this behaviour.
But thanks again

Quicktime and itunes problem

when i try to uninstall quicktime it says that there is a fatal error and wont uninstall! anyone know what i can do to get quick time completely off my computer? ive tried deleting the two files and all that. when i install the new itunes, i try to open it and it just says a error has happend and itunes must close thats all. anyone have any ideas would be great thanks

I'm having issues with Quicktime as well. I tried downloading iTunes 7. Got that done, rebooted, didn't work. Said I needed quicktime 7.1.3 - so i went to the site to download the new quicktime + iTunes. Quicktime is working, I checked for updates - says there are no updates available. iTunes is STILL telling me it won't run without quicktime 7.1.3 - quicktime is telling me that I already HAVE version 7.1.3.
I have tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling several times, the same error keeps happening. I would give up if I hadn't already spent so much money on iTunes in the previous version. Really the only reason I want it is for the easy way to backup my iTunes... that and I no longer have the old version, new version deleted it. headesks Help please?

Audio Playback issues with quicktime 7 and iTunes - distorted sound

I was informed by my Soundcard manufacturer that Quicktime7 now requires a "real" WDM driver.
Many soundcards seems to have a "fake" WDM driver and this leads to chopped up sound that is completely distorted / garbled and impossible to listen to.
The fix is to downgrade to an older version of quicktime and iTunes.
I'm posting this because it was driving me crazy that there is no information on this in the support pages from Apple even if there are plenty of reported issues with audio playback. The system requirements from Apple does not mention the WDM driver either. I am not sure if this "true" WDM driver has to be "windows signed" and all unsigned drivers are "fake".
I'm sure the changed requirements has changed because of the need to address more audio channels but it would be great if the "safe mode" would accept "fake" WDM drivers.
I have also requested a driver revision from my soundcard manufacturer. We'll see...

By way of experiment, try updating your QuickTime Player to the most recent version.
Does that help with the iTunes problem?

Screensaver, system sounds and itunes problem

I did all the updates and even used migration assistant so my computer has been through allot already. I do not know which update affected my screen saver and optical audio but my screen saver is having the same issue with two monitors. My VGA monitor displays photos when the screen saver kicks in but my macbook just says looking for pictures. I tried reseting pram, repairing permissions and "safe boot" but nothing works. My optical audio somehow messes with my system sounds and iTunes on first song or podcast played. Sometimes the progress bar will freeze and I can't move it.(the time counter for a track in iTunes). The system sound works off and on when I use optical audio out to my stereo receiver. I talked to apple care and the genius bar and they said I might need to archive and install from the recovery discs that came with my computer. I think if I did that and did all the updates then the problem would return because I think it is a firmware or software update problem and not third party software interacting with the system.

iTunes shouldn't do that. Normally when iTunes finds that it would like to move/rename a file after download or a tag edit, and the filename it wants to use is already in use, it adds a " 1" or " 2" to the end of the filename. It does not overwrite the original file. In fact if it had reused the filename then there would be two entries in your library, which would both have the same information and content. Is this the case? How exactly is the title of the film spelt?
File & folder names are limited to 40 characters in Windows so I would expect (judging by the titles given in the store) to find the movies in a folder called:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - P
and to be called
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.m4v and
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallo 1.m4v
Hopefully you have a backup of the missing file as, in principle, you are only allowed to create one copy using the redemption code.

New Address Book SYNC and ITUNES Problems- HELP!!!

When I try to tick the check box to syncornize my address book in my iPod preferences panel, I get the following message: "No contacts available- contact syncing cannot be enabled because there are no contacts available. Do you want to open Address Book and create contacts now?" When I do, Address Book opens (full of the 1100 contacts), but does not resolve the problem. Neither does deleting then reimporting the contacts, nor restoring from back up, nor Disk Warrior's rebuilding of the Directory.
Likewise, when I try to use iSync with my phones (until recently working by the way), I cannot tick the sync 'Contacts' box and then choose a phonebook, as it just gives me All Contacts as the only option. And even then, when I try to sync, I get a "sync failed" message.
These probelms started occurring after a kernal panic that happened when I connected my Sony Ericsson w800i to my computer via a USB cable. iPhoto and iTunes freaked out, but have since been restored to working order. But when I connected the new video iPod for the first time, I couldn't get it to sync with Address Book nor iCal. iCal works today, but not so the Address Book.
Yikes....if anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

THANK YOU for this solution; after trying MANY things to get my addresses to sync again, this fixed my sync problem! One suggestion I would add is if you try this, be sure to check the box "sync notes when exporting vCards" (Address Book: preferences) before exporting. The first time I lost my notes, but just removed the folder again and exported with notes. I had to recreate all my groups, but a small price to pay to get my addresses syncing again to my iPod.
I think one of the address files may have become corrupt, POSSIBLY after my iPod appeared to be stuck during a sync one time, but I later discovered that there was a sync dialogue box hidden behind iTunes waiting for my response. Problems seemed to start after that.

Red Light and iTunes problems! Please help!

My macbook is a little more than a year old. Just recently a little red light came on inside the headphone jack and the internal speakers will not work any longer.
Well, I searched online and read about the "switch" that sometimes gets thrown off or whatever. I've tried locating this switch with a toothpick and small metal rod, but I can't find it. If I hold the metal rod in a certain way, the light will go off momentarily. And if I hold the headphone jack in a certain way, the internal speakers will work momentarily.
And just recently, iTunes has started acting up. I play a song, and it will play through the speakers. I take the plug to the speakers out of my macbook and plug it back in, and iTunes will not play the song. It states that it is playing, but no sound is coming out of the speakers that had just worked prior to unplugging them. I have to restart iTunes for it to work.
I can't afford to send my Macbook in.
Please Help!
=(

Now, on top of all of this, I have to jiggle the headphone switch around to even get full sound; otherwise sound only comes out of one side
Someone please help
I can neither afford to call Apple, or afford to send my computer in
And it's been a little over a year since I've had it
This is seriously horrible, horrible customer service
I'm extremely disappointed
I've never been rough with my macbook. I take the headphone plug out one day and this happens
Please help!!!

Apple TV and iTunes problem - Different Twist

I, too, can no longer get Apple TVs to show up in my iTunes device list.
It DID work until last week when I downloaded two movies. They ATVs (three of them) got stuck in syncing, and were still "syncing" four days later. I quit the app, restarted it, and now all the ATVs are gone.
The twist is, the ATVs DO show up on my MBP and another iMac on the same local network. Just not on my 27 inch iMac.
I deleted (correctly and completely) iTunes and reinstalled - no success.
I created a new (clean) user account - no success.
I wiped the hard drive clean and reinstalled the software - no success.
This HAS to be a hardware problem with the iMac.
Any other ideas or observations or suggestions?

Question: Do you mean you removed the AppleTv from the list in iTunes or the iTunes library from the list in AppleTV Settings>Computers?
Answer: It disappeared from iTunes and couldn't be deleted. I disconnected/deleted from ATV's settings.
OK, good that lets you add the new library to AppleTV
Question: New user account on the computer or new iTunes account added to AppleTV?
Answer: On the iMac. I AM able to connect another Mac's iTunes library to the ATV and sync it. I just can't add or sync THIS one.
You can only sync a single library with AppleTV
Therest are shared/streaming libraries.
Question: Did you have to set them up in AppleTV again or were they sharing libraries always known to appleTV?
Answer: They appeared in the other computers iTunes device lists, saying "Apple TV click to set up" - just as they do at this very minute.
Ah ok, you haven't actually set them up on those machines.
I would turn those off just in case they're interfering with the one you want to sync being allowed a slice of the cake.
Question: If you'd factory restored AppleTV you would have to set these up again on AppleTV.
Answer: I don't understand, but, making an assumption, when I reset the ATV, I downloaded the update, went to connect to the network, and that connection request was received by all Macs on the network (Apple TV click to set up) except the iMac.
I've never had my other macs turned on when trying to add an AppleTV - it's possible they could be causing problems by catching the request for th e5 digit code before the reset computer.
Question: Why both?
Answer: Just for a belt and suspenders - I was troubleshooting.
Question: Do you have 2 separate local networks? If they do not see each other this could be the problem - try both individually if you haven't.
Answer: No, I have only one. And, the iMac can see the other computers, mount them, etc., and vice versa. The ONLY apparent network problem is the ATV/iTunes/iMac problem described here.
I hope I am less confusing now?
Yes, getting clearer!
Do you have any kind of extra firewall/security software on the affected machine eg Little Snitch or something like that?

Vista 64 bit and itunes problem

I have been using itunes for a long time but since i installed it in my new vaio laptop with 64 bit vista i am having problems like there are multiple iT.temp files. there was a time when i had about 1800 such files which consumes a lot of space so i have to manually delete them except the last 3 or 4 files. same is the case with temp files. then again some times when i close itunes the itunes library file goes missing which leaves my itunes library washed out when i open itunes next time, so every time i close itunes i have to save a copy of the library file and before opening itunes i have to copy it to the itunes folder.

Welcome to AD!
It's some Sony bloatware doing it. Kind of a root-kit attack on iTunes, if you will.

Front Row and itunes problem

Just got my new Macbook Pro and migrated my stuff over from my Powermac Quad G5. Problem when I try to run itunes from Front Row saying that my library is empty and no songs could be found. I have re - set the music folder in i-tunes but that hasn't corrected it.....I have around 3000 songs in the library which work ok when I open from the itunes icon.
I photo works just fine, but also getting the server problems when trying to load movie trailers.

Same here. I just got my new MacBook Pro two weeks ago, and I tried to use Front Row this week, and it claims that my iTunes library is empty. However, I have 228 songs, and when I launch iTunes normally, it is fine. Front Row launches iPhoto, movie trailers, and DVDs just fine. Any ideas?
Thanks!

*HELP* Paypal and iTunes problems! Billing agreement does not work!

Hello
I hope someone here can help me as this is driving me insane
I want to use PP for iTunes and have set up numerous billing agreements through PP, but iTunes does not seem to recognize them. I go through the whole thing of signing into my account repeatedly and it will send me to PP where I over and over set up the agreement, but when it is supposed to send me back to iTunes it just sends me to a page on PP where it states that my session has timed out.
I chatted live with someone from iTunes yesterday who suggested as I use Mozilla firefox that I should use IE instead when doing this. SO I took everything off and started over again and nada/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png
I also have a firewall on my pc through AVG and was wondering if this had something to do with it.
I cannot find the live chat section again to save my life/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png
