Quicktime 7 final (from iTunes 5 install) only crashes...

Whenever I run quicktime or the browser plugin is launched I get this error:
DDE SErver Window: QuicktimePlayer.exe - Application Error
The instruction at "0x0046162a" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory oculd not be "read".
Anyone know hot to fix this?
Thanks!

Well, not totally irrelevant since Ricardo and Ric are one in the same person (i.e. me). I had forgotten I had registered previously and ended up with 2 usernames...
In any case, I had a number of issues with various versions of Quicktime 7 resulting in crashes in the standalone player as well as the browser plugin. All these problems disappeared after dealing with the volume name bug discussed in the thread I linked to. Consequently, I suspect these issues were related, at least on my system.
I have no idea if this has anything to do with what azurepalm is experiencing but since he reports the same error I received I suggested he take a look. I also suspect the same error could result from different causes so YMMV...

    Please assist
    Thx

    You don't really delete app that way, that way to stop backup for that app in icloud.
    You need to delete it from your home screen and then while it still will look like download from icloud - app will start fresh.
    However if app uses any account sign in the stuff that is attached to sign in will come back, so if you do not want to you need to use
    fresh account as well.

  • IPad (4th Gen Retina Display Wi-Fi) (iOS 7.0.4) won't sync new music from iTunes (Windows).  Only solution found was to uncheck "Sync Music" under Music tab, apply, then recheck "Sync Music" and apply. Any other solution?

    iPad (Retina Display) (iOS 7.0.4) won't sync new music from iTunes (Windows).  Only solution found was to uncheck "Sync Music" under Music tab, apply, then recheck "Sync Music" and apply.  This is timely and aggravating.  Any other solution?
    I have also tried a hard reset.  I have also gone into settings and checked "display all music". 
    Anyone know if the new update will have solutions to this problem?

    Successful experience with Apple Care.
    If anyone is having the same problem, there's a chance it's an issue with the Mobile Device Manager for iTunes. The key is to ditch the old/corrupt file and replace it via clean iTunes installation.
    Here's the fix that worked for me:
    1. Trash iTunes (uninstall); don't forget to trash it from your dock if you have it there.
    2. Head to /System/Library/Extensions/ and trash file AppleMobileDevice.kext
    3. Head to /Library/Receipts/ and trash AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg  ( * this may or may not be there * )
    4. Restart computer (& empty trash)
    5. Download fresh & clean iTunes and reinstall.
    Voila! The content is now properly recognized by iTunes, the capacity bar registers the correct amount and type beyond "Other", and now I can put music back on the iPad.

  • HT1420 I can't deauthorise my daughter's last computer from iTunes because it has crashed. We have three computers in the house but I can't authorise my new MacbookPro for iTunes or homesharing. So I can't even get my music from my old Macbook into my new

    I can't deauthorise my daughter's last computer from iTunes because it has crashed. We have three computers in the house but I can't authorise my new MacbookPro for iTunes or homesharing because it says I have 5 computers authorised (I don't). I can't even get my music from the iTunes library on my old Macbook onto my new one, because it won't let me sync my iPhone 5 with my old Macbook, as I can't update the iTunes software. So I have a new MacbookPro and a new iPhone 5 and I can't get any of my music on either of them. I feel singularly depressed.

    As you have more than 1 computer authorised then you should be able to log into your account on your computer's iTunes (Store > View My Account) and 'deauthorise all' (which you can do once every 12 months) and you can then authorise/reauthorise the computers that you still have and need : authorising and deauthorising.

    Open iTunes and then connect you to the iTunes store
    and on the right you will see "Purchased"
    and it will show you all the app that you have purchase during the years , and on right corner of the page you can choose to download everything again

    Why is it taking so long to download film rentals from Itunes ,before it took 20 mins when I have a good internet connection.

    If you have anti virus software installed, disable that.
    Turn off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security & Privacy
    Check your internet speeds just in case >  Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test
    Try not using other applications that require downloading files while downloading media from iTunes.

  • Why can i not buy music from itunes store,this only happened recently

    Why can i not buy music from itunes store,this has only happened recently ?

    O.K. Everything seems to be in order now!
    I don't know what happened but this is the results....
    After attempting to edit change the information on my iTunesMS account at least 7 times, I posted the above question, logged out of iTunes, closed down all my apps and turned off my computer.
    A few hours later, I thought I would give it one more try and when I turned on iTunes, went to the Music Store and then 'reviewed' my account... it had my old American address on it with the country listed as Sweden... I just left it alone, as it didn't have my credit card info listed at all... Curiously, I'm clueless about that (though I did send this same complaint to Apple during the first posting... did that have anything to do with it?) When I clicked the continue button (without changing any info) it prompted me that I was finished setting up my iTunes Music Store account and I was immediately able to download some songs....(using the iTunes Music card--- I have not tried my MasterCard!)
    So basically, I did nothing except close iTunes, turn off my computer and later rebooted it and opened iTunes! Strange... does that seem like a fix or what?

  • Digital booklet from iTunes causing Preview to crash

    I was conflicted about whether to put this question in the iTunes for Mac or the Mountain Lion community, but, as you can see, I've settled on Mountain Lion because I believe iTunes is not causing the problem.
    I downloaded "Electric Ladyland" from iTunes the other day and received a digital booklet with the album. When I double-clicked the booklet in iTunes, Preview would open up (as it does with any of the other digital booklets I have stored in iTunes) and display the first or the second page of the PDF. After swiping either left or right to view the previous or the next page, though, Preview would completely shut down, necesitating a force quit every time.
    Most concerning to me is the fact that every time I tried opening this PDF in Preview my whole Mac would slow down significantly and, according to iStat Menus and the Activity Monitor, my memory and CPU usage would spike. Prior to clicking the booklet, my Mac would normally be using less than 2 of its 4 GB of memory and the CPU would be almost completely idle, with no individual program using up more than 30% of its processing power at any point in time. While this particular PDF was open in Preview my memory usage would jump to the full 4 GB and Activity Monitor was reporting that Preview was using almost "200%" of my CPU.
    Interestingly enough, I can open this PDF with Adobe Reader and am able to view every page just fine. None of my other digital booklets or other PDFs outside of iTunes cause Preview to crash like this, so I think it must be an issue between this specific file and Preview.
    I tried deleting and re-downloading the file (I had to contact iTunes support so they could re-upload the booklet to my account) and that did nothing; the booklet still caused the same problems. The support staff member I was emailing back and forth with had no suggestions for me. She forwarded me to an AppleCare advisor who also had no idea what the problem might be. (He actually forwarded me back to iTunes support!)
    Anyone else experienced this?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Copy the PDF you're having problems with to the Public folder in your home folder.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. You'll need to navigate in the Finder to the Users folder, then to the home folder of your regular login account, and then to the Public folder, where you'll find the file you copied. Try to open it in Preview. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it. You can also delete the copy of the PDF.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Purchasing songs from Itunes when it keeps crashing

    Hello. I was just purchasing three songs from iTunes and all three times it crashed before it could be completed. The files are not on my iTunes library and they are saved as temp files on my computer without being able to play them or open them.
    Is there any such chance I can redownload them so my money is not taken?
    Thanks.

    First:
    Store>Check for Available downloads
    If this does not start the download process, then go to purchase history, click "Report a Problem" and report the problem. Apple should resolve within a day.
