Quicktime fails to launch with Error 46 in Windows 7

"Error 46: Could not load or find the QuickTime ActiveX control," in Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. Tried uninstall - re-install as administrator without success. I have seen several postings indicating a permissions issue but install and run as administrator should avoid such issues. I also tried running in XP compatabilty mode with admin rights to no avail.  I have yet to see any real solution. I have my Pro license but can't apply it till the appl;ication runs. Any suggestions for a real solution?

Hmmmm. So FairPlay, BonJour and iTunes didn't update, but QuickTime, AAS and AMDS did.
This has me wondering about security software interference. If that's afoot, we may be able to get past it by a "download, restart, disable, install" strategy.
First download and save a fresh copy of the iTunes64setup.exe (installer) file from Apple. (Don't run the install on line and don't start the install just yet.)
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL925
Now restart the PC. After the restart, do not open any applications. Disconnect from your network and/or the internet. Now disable all your security software (firewall, antivirus, antispyware).
Just in case, this time we'll start the install by right-clicking the iTunes64Setup.exe and selecting "Run as administrator".
Reenable all security software prior to reconnecting to the internet and/or your network.
... Any better luck with the install this time around?

  • 3 Creative Cloud packages all fail on Launch with Error 16

    Hi,
    I am using creative cloud packager to create applications to deploy using SCCM, which I have successfully deployed in the past.
    I created 3 new creative cloud packages this week, Edge Animate, After Affects and Premier Pro, for the 64bit platform.
    The machines their to be deployed to are Windows 7 SP1 64bit, two machines I tested to were absolutely fine, all other machines tested to have deployed, but on launch all three apps behave the same way. A prompt suggesting I uninstall and reinstall the product. contact Adobe support if the problem reoccurs. Error: 16  (These machines are a mixture of freshly built and established desktops)
    I have tried the steps to resolve similar issues for error 16 in this link http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/configuration-error-cs5.html
    But they did not resolve the problem, I have recreated the packages and tweaked some settings but this consistently occurs regardless of what I do.
    Any suggestions on what could be the issue or where to look for information to find the cause on the machines would be appreciated, there is not much regarding this scenario available from forums.

    Error 16 is usually related to a permissions issue.
    Try checking the logs, for more information: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html

  • Quick Time (Audio Preferences) fails to launch with buffer overrun error

    It all started a few weeks ago, after installing itunes7.0 for windows, and itunes began to annoy me (indeed drive me mad) with an error message :
    "an unhandled win32 exception has occured in itunes.exe [3840]" at startup / closing immediately afterwards.
    After numerous uninstall/reinstall/clean the registry/system restore attempts I managed to solve the issue-- BUT only for a few days..It failed again and so I went through the itunes support forums even found an entry
    "iTunes 7 for Windows: iTunes fails to launch with an unknown error"
    which suggests that my issue could be solved by :
    "Open the QuickTime control panel and select the Audio tab.
    In the Devices section de-select the Safe mode (waveOut only) option and click Apply."
    But to my surprise, when i selected the Audio tab (and the Audio tab ONLY ) it presented me a "buffer overrun error" which indicated that the internal state of the program has been corrupt and it would be shutting down now..
    It's such a nuisance..!!
    Please, help, and your help will be deeply appreciated... !
    I have tried to revert to the older version and it didn't work..

    let's try swapping out your existing QuickTime one more time. we'll take a few additional explicit precautions this time.
    head into your Add/Remove programs. uninstall QuickTime.
    Next, we’ll manually remove any leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
    7. Restart your computer.
    next, we'll get a fresh copy of QuickTime into your PC by doing a repair install of itunes.
    switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the repair install.
    go into Add/Remove and select itunes. click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    if the repair install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching itunes again. does it launch properly now?

    None of the above possible recommended solutions were able to fix the issue yet and now I am getting a message your Window is Not Genuine!
    Any help or guidance is appreciated.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The Lenovo System Update installed the "Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver 8.9.2.1002" right before the Windows Upgrade got broken. So in the Device Manager under IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers, I choose Intel ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller, on the Driver Tab, I choose the option "Roll Back Driver" and after rolling back the driver and restarting the OS, now Windows Update is working like a Champ!
    The End!

  • 7.1.1 iTunes Fails to Launch (No Error Message, Pretty Weird)

    After downloading iTunes 7.1.1, I installed iTunes. The installation went well and everything was installed. I had no problem with installation.
    However, after installing, I tried opening iTunes. However it fails to launch and I don't receive an error message.
    When I open the Windows Task Manager and check out the processes, the iTunes.exe appears for 10 seconds and then disappears.
    The weird thing is, is that iTunes version 4.0 works perfectly. (I think it's 4.0. It's the one that has the green note. The current versions have the blue note.)
    I can open it up and play my music.
    I have a Dell Dimension 8200 (It's about 6 years old.) The operation system is Windows XP.
    Can someone explain and tell me how to fix this problem, so I can open iTunes 7.1.1.
    Thanks.

    doublechecking one more thing that can help narrow in on possible culprits with these sorts of symptoms.
    try launching your QuickTime. does it:
    (a) launch perfectly fine?
    (b) fail to launch with an error message? (if so, what does it say?)
    (c) exhibit other peculiar behavior? (if so, could you describe it for us?)

  • Global query block is causing a DNS server to fail a query with error code Name Error exists in the DNS database for WPAD

    Global query block is causing a DNS server to fail a query with error code Name Error exists in the DNS database for WPAD on a Windows 2008 server.

    The global query block list is a feature that prevents attacks on your network by blocking DNS queries for specific host names.  This feature has caused the DNS server to fail a query with error code NAME ERROR for wpad.contoso.com. even though data
    for this DNS name exisits in the DNS database.  Other queries in all locally authoritative zones for other names that begin with labels in the block list will also fail, but no event will be logged when further queries are blocked until the DNS server

  • LabVIEW 2009 launches with errors

    Hi Folks,
    LabVIEW 2009 launches with errors now everytime I open it.  A window appears showing an error list with nothing in it, with a close and show dialog box (hangs with hour glass).  Neither option is possible since the window self closes in about two minutes.  It's a little frustrating since it adds to my loading time everytime I launch it.
    Any suggestions other than unistall/install process?

  • ITunes fails to install with error Ox800736FD. Any ideas?

    iTunes fails to install with error Ox800736FD. Any ideas?
    Trying to install on a Acer Aspire-- no CD/DVD

    Ox800736FD
    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? Are they also 800736FD, or some other number? (If they're another number, what number are you getting?)

  • Itunes will not launch, no error message (windows xp, itunes 10.7.0.21)

    Itunes will not launch, no error message (windows xp, itunes 10.7.0.21)
    Yeah

    OK, so i cannot enter into iTunes safe mode, whilst monitoring proccesses in the task manager I noticed that itunes will only stay open if i keep my fingers on shift and control-i dont know if that is worth mentioning- the proccess promptly ends after the release of the said keys, (I tried both the shift control keys on either side of the keyboard-same result) so i am stuck there.
    P.S.
    This version of iTunes had previously worked before, I uninstalled everything apple related after noticing how many processes (-id est-) /applications, were using up my memory.
    afterwards I had need for iTunes, (i needed to wipe my iDevice) I reinstalled and this problem has arisen.

    check about "NIIL.cc_bck_mgmt" table.
    and then create it (trigger) manual ;)
