Quicktime only works with iTunes - Please help!!!

if I have iTunes installed on my computer with the quicktime, quicktime will not work when viewing videos that are sent to me via email or on places like myspace. It is just a white screen with a Q and a ? mark. What is causing this problem? In order to view those videos I have to uninstall quicktime and then to listent to my iTunes I have to reinstall it.

Ok I've followed countless random post instructions, uninstalled and reinstalled both iTunes and Quicktime multiple times, cleaned the registry, temp files, documents and settings, program files, etc. and Quicktime 7 still crashes. What in the **** is the deal here? I have to believe that this is a problem with a straightforward solution. Quicktime used to work fine. There are only two possible problems here:
1) Some remnant of an old Quicktime install is screwing me up. This should not be this hard to rectify, there are a finite number of places Quicktime puts files. Is there any folder I haven't checked?
2) Some odd glitch allowed me to successfully run QT7 before but now, for whatever reason, my setup has changed in some way I'm not noticing and its now no longer working. In this case there still must be some solution since the problem is very specific: Works with directx disabled, doesn't with directx enabled.
I sincerely appreciate these forums and everyone who takes the time to read them and help users like me. Still, am I missing some place where I can get a solid official answer from Apple on this? I paid for pro, and that doesn't even get me a support email address?

  • The app "remote" is not working with itunes - please help!

    I click the add library button and it shows me the code - as soon as it shows me the code I see the icon for the ipad in my itunes window. i type in the code, but it's not working ... it beeps after about 10 seconds and then the same window is displayed saying "please enter the passcode"

    From my understanding, I thought an app with a + sign meant that it is optimized for ipad and/or iphone, and you pay one price, and can download on two devices. remote is NOT optimized for ipad, but it should work. It did work on my laptop, which is why I'm frustrated it won't work on my desktop --- what's even stranger is the fact that my desktop "sees" it ... it's just the code isn't working

  • Ipod Classic 160 6th g. doesn't sync w/Imac g5 non intel OS 10.4.11. This is a replacement for same ipod which was stolen recently. That pod worked fine with Itunes 9! Now this pod says it only works with Itunes 10.7. ***!!!! Why has Apple screwed up?

    My ipod classic 160 6th gen. was recently stolen. It had 3000 tunes on it and it synced perfectly with Itunes 9 on my Imac G5 non intel OS 10.4.11. So I recently bought same model and guess what, it doesn't sync at all. Now message says it only works with Itunes 10.7 and up. I certainly cant afford to buy a new intel based Mac and I really dont need a new pc. It feels like Apple has dropped the ball on its long time users and tough luck to you and all the $$$$$$$ spent on downloading songs and buying ipods over the years! I AM SO ANGRY THAT I CANNOT BRING MY MUSIC WITH ME ANYMORE. I dont know if there is any solution to this except being extorted to upgrade to new tech! I have been trying to get answers to this issue but nothing seems to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am not a tech genius so extremely techy solutions will be in vane.

    one more detail, after a restore, when I attempt to reload music to the ipod, if I try and move, say, 20 files, the transfer seems to work as it should but then stalls on the last file.  Eventually, the status will change to "Updates Files on (my ipod)" a and suggests the iPod is syncing  even though I have the auto sync feature turned off.
    This process eventually works itself out, and seems to take longer relative to the number of files I attempt to transfer.   Once done, howver, if I try and eject and dismount the iPod, iTunes stalls with the spinning pinwheel and I am warned that the iPod is syncing again with the spinning candy cane status bar.     Eventually thisd works itself out and the iPod dismounts from iTunes and the desktop and eventually the iPod is free to disconnect.
    Then if I try and play the music I just transfered, the iPod says there is no music loaded.
    Ideas?

        Hi there, ronyme! Thanks for reaching out about your iPhone 4s. It's a great device. I can see you bought it from your cousin. Have you already taken possession of it? If so, are you in the United States or have you taken the device to Jordan or another country?

    I can not select/see other outputs in my sound selector.

    You have not indicated which OS or which music program you have so I have listed a program called Airfoil to try for both Windows and Mac - it may work for you

  • My Ipod will not sync with Itunes - PLEASE HELP

    I have a bunch of songs on my ipod that I have from my previous computer and they will not sync with Itunes on my new computer. I have authorized the computer, I have also selected the "transfer purchases from ipod" option, I have spent the last day reading through FAQs but have found no solution. How do I fix the problem? Thanks in advance for your help.

    The transfer purchases option only works with music purchased from iTunes and you don't say if this is the case.
    Here's some other option for Windows users.
    First, try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.

  • Quicktime Only Works with Direct3d Disabled

    I mentioned this on the end of another post but I thought I'd give it its own topic in hopes that someone would have a solution for me. Quicktime will play files in the standalone player but when I try to play a mov in a browser (either Firefox or IE) all I get is a second of green and pink lines. Then I get a plugin error which I can't read because it is quickly obscured by the browser crashing.
    The only other odd behavior is that when I try to run the update option from QT's preferences, it crashes and gives me the error: An exception occurred while trying to run "Shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\QuickTime.cpl"" and then crashes. Occasionally I'll get a buffer overrun message instead.
    I followed advice elsewhere on this forum and disabled Direct3D and Directdraw support in the advanced preferences. This fixes the crashing but now I've lost the advantages of DirectX and large flies look like crap.
    I've tried uninstalling QT many times as well as uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. I've reinstalled DirectX and my gfx drivers (Nvidia 8800 GTS) and this didn't help either. Switching Direct3D back on still causes the crash. Incidentally, I'm running Windowblinds as well though I don't think that has anything to do with it as the problem exists even when I unload it.
    Everything was working fine until I (stupidly, perhaps) installed a copy of Quicktime 2.0 so I could play an old Windows game. I believe I've deleted all the 2.0 files now and I've used regcleaner and cccleaner so relevant entries should be wiped out.
    Advice? I just want everything working like it was a few weeks ago. And is there an Apple support email for Quicktime? I have Pro so presumably I'm owed a little bit of support. Thanks a lot.

  • Keep getting an error with itunes Please help

    I'm a first time user with itunes I just bought my ipod a couple of months ago and everything has been working fine, but when I went to charge my ipod and all my music had been taken off my ipod. I did mess with my settings a little bit and I think that is what caused that to happen. well I put the default settings back on and I went to sync my music and about half way through i got a message that Could not sync my file and error (-69) has occurred. If anyone can help please do!

    See if this trouble shooting article helps.
