Quicktime - latest version

I would dearly love to install the latest Quicktime, to view multimedia products on my Britannica encylopedia, but halfway through 2 windows pop up as follows:
Quicktime error message
Error - 1316; a network error occured while attempting to read from the file C:Windows\Installer\Quicktime.msi
and then another:
Feature transfer error
Error - 1603 Fatal error during installation
Consult Windows Installer Help (Msi.chm)or MSDN for more information
what can it all possibly mean and how can I rectify that problem?
can anybody help out on this issue please?
many thanks

Error - 1316; a network error occured while attempting to read from the file C:Windows\Installer\Quicktime.msi
this is the one we need to fix. (if we can get this one to go away, the 1603 should go away of its own accord.)
it's usually an issue with existing QT program files and/or installation configuration information on the PC. so let's try this first.
Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. then use it to clear any existing QuickTime installation configuration information from your PC:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
Next, we’ll manually remove 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.
does a QT install go through properly for you now?

  • Quicktime Latest Version Won't Shut Down Correctly

    Can anyone help me with this? I updated my itunes and quicktime to the latest versions. Itunes works ok but quicktime when i shut it down a box comes up quicktime player ahas encountered an error and needs to close.
    I have tried uninstalling the player, deleting folders and then using registry mechanic and then reinstalling. Same thing happens. I tried a repair and same again.
    Any help appreciated.

    I have this same problem on a PC computer. As I can still view my movies, its not such a big problem, but the error is at the least a nuisance. I wonder if this has to do with the newest version of Quicktime.

  • Quicktime for Windows -- on Vista -- opens a .mov movie once, then won't open the move and Quicktime won't even open itself.  I've installed the latest version, and upgraded it to Plus as well.

    I am having trouble opening .mov videos with Quicktime on my PC with Vista.  I installed the latest version of Quicktime for Windows (V.7.7), and upgraded it to Pro.  It will open a .mov file once, then after that it will not open any .mov file and in fact, when I try to open the Quicktime player it will not open itself.  If I switch users to Admin, it all works fine, but when I go back to my regular role (where all of my preferences and programs are there for me to use), the same thing happens.  An .mov file will open once, then never again, and the Quicktime player seems to be disabled.
    I've tried different .mov files, so it's not a corrupt file that's the problem.  And, in the past (a couple of Quicktime versions ago, I guess), all of this worked just fine.
    Any helpful suggestions would be appreciated!

    I have the exact same problem. They play on my Mac under Snow Leopard. Transfer to Vista gets a window with black and white and some other noise. No sound either.

  • Updated latest version of itunes onto windows xp.Can't open it.The Data Execution Prevention window comes up.I have followed all the directions of changing the settings.I have updated Quicktime.Still can't open it.

    I updated the latest version of itunes onto my pc (windows xp) and all of a sudden I can't open it up.  Everytime I try to open it I get a window that says: "Data Execution Prevention - Microsoft Windows...To help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program.  Change settings."  I have tried to change the settings.  Uninstalled & reinstalled itunes.  Updated the lates version of quicktime.  Nothing has helped.  If there is anyone who has a suggestion I would appreciate it.  I am at my wits end with this.  Thank you in advance for all your suggestions.

    If anyone is looking at this and would like to know what I did to finally get it to work, I did the following:  I right click on the itunes icon on my desktop.......clicked on "run as"........made sure that it ran as administrator.   This finally worked for me.  Hope you all find this info helpful.

    Open your QuickTime control panel (either via the Control panels, or by going "Edit > Preferences > QuickTime Preferences" in the Quicktime Player). In the Advanced tab, uncheck Enable Direct3D video acceleration:
    ... and click OK. Quit and restart the QuickTime Player prior to checking to see if the settings change has had any effect.

  • TS2363 Hi Guys!  Can someone tell me why after installing itunes  V 10.7.0.21 and Quicktime 7.73.80.64  I can no longer get a movie to play.   I completely deleted all programs to do with itune then reinstalled all the latest version back into my desktop.

  • Trying to Install latest version of Quicktime, Can't because of Quicktime X

    Trying to Install latest version of Quicktime, Can't because of Quicktime X. It says to get it done in software update but currently I do not (and will not) have asscess to network for a while.

    I'm not sure of how safe it would be to uninstall QuickTime X. If you want to stop the system from using it right-click any file which it would normally open, under the "Open With" menu select "Other...", search for Quick Time 7 or whichever program you want to use, check the "Always Open With" option and you're done.

  • Hello, can't get my mac to upgrade to latest versions of quicktime, itunes or any other os

    Hello, can't get my mac to upgrade to latest versions of quicktime, itunes or any other os

    The latest OS that you can run is 10.5.8. That is as far as Power Mac machines can go.
    The latest Quicktime, iTunes, etc., must be both OS X 10.5.8 AND Power Mac (PPC) compatible.
    This is the last OS update for your machine:

    I had to reinstall my OSX.  I had previously purchased the latest version of Quicktime on line .  How do I reload it.....

    I assume you mean Quicktime 7 pro.
    You may need to download Quicktime again (I can't remember if it's bundled with leopard or not)
    QuickTime 7.7 for Leopard.
    You can retrieve purchased registration keys this way:
    Visit the Apple Online Store.
    Cick "Account" in the upper-right corner.
    Click "Downloadable Software Purchases".
    Enter your Apple ID and password.
    You should see your QuickTime Pro registration key(s).

  • I backed up my movies and rebuild my computer, and after making sure i'm using the latest version of itunes and quicktime and and making sure i still had spare computer authorizations, i still get error 23132.  Please help.

    I backed up my movies and rebuild my computer, and after making sure i'm using the latest version of itunes and quicktime and and making sure i still had spare computer authorizations, i still get error 23132.  Please help.

    I had this exact issue.  Spent over an hour on the phone with apple support, they couldn't resolve.  Here is what I ended up doing, that worked.
    1.  Turned iTunes match off on all my iOS devices
    2.  Deleted the offending playlists from the iOS device they originated on
    3.  Started iTunes, let it run (literally) for an hour before it became responsive.  First thing I did, before clicking anywere else was disable iTunes match.  If I clicked anywhere, it would clock for another hour.
    4.  Let iTunes run overnight, by morning it had cleaned out the repeating play lists.  This got my Mac/iTunes back to an operable state.
    5.  Restore iPhones from backup in iTunes.
    What was causing my issue was a single playlist that was created on an iPhone, then suddenly showed up with several thousand duplicates on my other iPhone.  The culprit playlist did not, for some reason, duplicate itself on my two iPads.  Apple support seemed to think it was because the problem iPhone tried to sync the playlist to iCloud over and over again unsuccessfully, then it finally went through and populated the thousands of blank/failed playlists which then tried to propigate to iTunes and my other iOS devices.  Seems like a reasonable theory.
    I have not yet re-enabled iTunes match.  So, no idea what will happen if I decide to go back down that rabbit hole.

  • Downloaded the latest version of iTunes&quicktime and can't connect iphone

    I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and Quicktime but now when I tried to connect my iPhone 3Gs it says I must uninstall iTunes and mobile device support and then reinstall them. When I try uninstalling mobile device support it says "Error while installing"
    How do I fix this?

    When I try uninstalling mobile device support it says "Error while installing"
    Let's try the following procedure first.
    Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from Microsoft:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any *Apple Mobile Device Support* entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly? If so, do you get recognition for the iPhone this time around?
