Quicktime or PictureViewer pop up?

Every time I open a photo, I get a pop up that has a PictureViewer label at the top, but says "Some of the files associated with Quick Time applications are currently associated with other applications. Should I restore these file type applications to Quick Time?" There is a box to check that says "Do not perform this check again. The Quick Time control panel can be used to make subsequent changes."
However, checking that box does nothing. Every time I try to open a photo, I get this pop up, and cannot determine if it is PictureViewer or Quick Time.
Any help?
Thanks.

Not sure if I have understood your problem but you can enter in the workspace in edit mode, edit the panel for the inbox, and you have an option called execution type, where you have three values Dialog Window, pop up window and Broadcast Event, so try to change this value. To give this configuration to all your users you should create a layout with that configuration, for more information about creating a layout check the workspace customization guide where it is explained in detail.

How to correctly render quicktime with two pop and timecode?

I have a feature finished and need to create the quicktime for the composer and mixer. But I have to add a new time code generator as well. So, at the moment, I have a timeline starting at 58:50 and the feature starting at 01:00:00. It is selected as non-drop.
I was told by my online editor that I would have to either Nest the sequence and then generate my quicktime or I would have to create a quicktime from this sequence and then drop the quicktime on a new timeline and then create a quicktime again. I may be wrong, but it seems that both of those would be uneccesary as shouldn't I be able to just make the edited sequence into the new quicktime with an added timecode (via the generator)? Also because if I have my original timeline at 58:50 and then nest it on a new time line would the new timeline start at 01:00:00 and then generate a mixed up timecode?
So, with all that in mind. I am just wondering what my steps from here are in:
1) How to add the two pop (I was told to go into the effects bin and find the Bars And Tone and extract two frames at 59:58:00 and 59:5801 and I gues drop those two frames into the timeline.)
2) Add the timecode generator ( i know it is available somewhere in FCP)
3) And how to then correctly render a quicktime for the post gang.
After that, I drop the drive and project off to the online guys and they will do the OMF and create the master HD project.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Andy,
Thanks for the reply but am not sure what you mean by removing in and out points and dragging from browser to a new sequence. How does one technically remove an in and out point? And is this a strategy that will somehow enable me to be able to nest the project?
I remember once a long time ago I tried to nest a large project (probably 70 minutes) and I tried highlighting the whole thing (which I may be doing the long way as I have to SHIFT click clip one and then SHIFT click the last clip and then try and find every clip in between that didn't get highlighted - which can take some time) and it would still not nest the project (kept coming up with some warning). So, I ultimately had to nest it by copying and pasting the film in 5ths onto their own sequences and then nesting them and then nesting the nests!
So, I am hoping to do a quicktime for my post guys will not be as long winded....
Thanks.

Annoying QuickTime Message Keeps Popping Up

"Additional software is required for quicktime to play back this media."
But I'm not even using QuickTime and there is no instruction for what software is required.
I've seen this problem mentioned here and elsewhere, but not a solution.

I do not know exactly what you are trying to playback, but these 2 additions to QuickTime play just about everything I come across....

On Dell core2duo - QuickTime PictureViewer does not work

I have some considerable problems with QuickTime's PictureViewer application. The system has Windows XP pro and a core 2 Duo processor running at 1.86Ghz - also has 2 Gb ddram. Norton internet security is installed and up to date.
Once the PictureViewer application is launched and used to view a file, the shut down by the X, the UI is still running, even though the application has stopped. I have ACDsee8 as default picture viewer.
I also carry IrfanView to preview single files. No files are default in it.
Is there a trick to using the PictureViewer application?

Howdy neighbor,
I used to live in Maryland and loved the Amish shops and drivers (carriages) along Route 6 and 301.
On the Mac OS Picture Viewer has been replaced by our "Preview" application (part of OS X) and Windows users still get it installed as part of QuickTIme.
It is a relic of the old days of Web use and most modern Windows no longer use Picture Viewer in anything they do day to day.
It appears as though you have assigned image formats to open in your image (viewing/editing) software and not open in Picture Viewer.
QuickTime Control Panel can remove most of these file associations that force Picture Viewer to open the file and you should then be able to assign the application you want to use.

Video "pops" after quicktime export

exported my sequence (apple pro res 422 1280x720 59.94) as a straight quicktime movie export using current settings and make movie self contained. when i play the quicktime, there are "pops" - the picture jumps either forward at a fade up from black or jumps back at a fade down to black. the "pop" happens right at the end of the transition if there's fade up or the first frame of the transition if it's a fade done. the fades are to & from slug (black). it's as simple as it could be. also when lower third titles fade up & down on track two the same thing happens. i've rendered everything which i thought was overkill. i'm going to try exporting using compressor next. i've never seen this happen before. any ideas? thanks.

michael, the orig clips are pro res with exactly the same settings as the sequence setings.
using compressor as opposed to using make quicktime movie did make the sequence without the "pops" or jumps that i was getting using make quicktime movie though it took twice as long. since i have a bunch of these to do and they're 2-2 1/2 hrs long would prefer to use qt as opposd to compressor.
if anyone has any ideas i'd appreciate it. like i said as soon as the fade up from blk/slug ends, the picture jumps forward. conversely at the exact frame the fade out begins the picture jumps back. however when the quicktime of the sequence is reimported and played back in fcp, the jumps are not there. wondering if there is prob at all but obviously "something" is funky otherwise qt player wouldn't being having difficulty playing the clips. thanks.

I Purchaced Quicktime Pro, But Have Not Received My Software Yet. HELP!

Since I have a PC, I don't visit the Apple website very often. However, I need to make Quicktime movies from Flash and After Effects.
Recently, I was offered an update for Quicktime (through a pop-up from Apple), and when I updated it, ALL of my Quicktime movies stopped working What a slimey way to make you buy new software!
So I went to the Apple website and purchased the new version of Quicktime Pro, hoping that this would resolve the issue. I couldn't figure out if Apple was going to mail me the software, or if I was supposed to download it from the website.
I have tried to read the support topics, and can't find this subject anywhere. It has been at least 2 weeks, and I haven't received anything from Apple, not from the internet and not in the snail mail. I sent an email to the company and have received NO REPLY!
I am very frustrated by this and wonder if Apple actually knows what it is doing? How do they expect to keep customers, if they have such terrible customer service?
Is there anyone out there who can tell me how to get my hands on the software that I purchased?

Someone else may correct me, but to the best of my knowledge, QuickTime cannot deal with any Flash format newer than Flash 5. Because of that, the more recent versions of QT have removed Flash support pretty much completely. So for a Flash 8 video, I believe you'll need some other conversion tool. But with luck someone else here with more solid knowledge about Flash and conversion will chime in.
As to the AfterEffects movies, what codecs (audio and video) were used and what precisely means "quit working". Will they not load, will they load but not play at all, or will they load and play but with problems?
And again, it will probably help people offer suggestions if you post what version of QuickTime you're using. If it says it's up to date, I would presume it's 7.5.5, but check the version in QuickTime Player to confirm.
Regards.

How to install XviD Quicktime Component?

I'm trying to watch a .avi video using Quicktime but a pop-up appears saying "Additional software is required for QuickTime to playback this media." So I clicked the link and downloaded the binary of the XviD component. Now I have XviD_Codec 1.0 alpha.component.
It says
To install this component, just drag the File "XviD_Codec 1.0 alpha.component" into Library/QuickTime. The Library directory can be found either at your home directory (to install just for the actual user) or at the top-level of your startup volume (this needs an administrator account). DO NOT PUT IN: /System/Library/QuickTime.
It is possible that the QuickTime directory does not yet exists. In that case you can create it yourself. Pay attention to capital letters if you use a case sensitive file system (i.e. UFS).
I do not have Library/Quicktime.
Can someone give me directions on what to do?

Sounds normal to me. The "~/Library/QuickTime" folder is the standard location for user and application installed QT components which are used globally by all account users. On the other hand, the "~/System/Library/QuickTime" folder is where QT components installed by the operating system installer are placed for global use. These instructions appear to be correct.

Highly unlikely if you are running Mac OS X V10.5.8 as indicated in your posting. As you can see here, when the startup drive is opened at the root level, you should find a minimum of four folders—the "Applications" folder, the "Library" folder, the "System" folder, and the "Users" folder. Without these folders, your computer would be little more than an electrified paperweight.
I do not have Library/Quicktime.
Either you are looking in the wrong place or someone has been playing around on your system (e.g., in the Console app) and made the folder invisible.

Disable QuickTime plugin from launching standalone player

I have a QuickTime plug-in embedded in my web page. When I click on the main screen of this plug-in (while video is playing) a standalone QuickTime player will pop up. Is there a way to disable this from happening??

Thanks

Thanks QuickTimeKirk.
I have took out the "T" and now when I click on the QuickTime plugin it does not launch a standalone player (Which is what I want) but now it seems to refresh the QuickTime player (reloads itself). How can I avoid this???
Thanks again.

Uninstall & Reinstall QuickTime Daily

I have Windows XP. Since I updated iTunes (to 7) and QuickTime (to 7), I have been having many QuickTime problems. I have to uninstall and reinstall QuickTime daily to be able to use iTunes, or any other applications which use QuickTime. If I try to open a program needing QuickTime, a box pops up saying that I cannot open the application because I need to install QuickTime 6 or more. Is there anyway to get around this? I am tired of uninstalling and reinstalling QuickTime every single day. I've tried turning Firewall on or having it off. It didn't seem to matter. I've also tried turning my RegCure & XoftSpySE off and that didn't seem to matter either. HELP!!! Anyone have any ideas what is going on?

Having the same prob reinstalling QT7.2 ('already newer version' etc.), but don't have the uninstall feature of 10.4/Tiger available. Does QT write a hidden file somewhere I can trash and make things all more better?
Have Tiger on my other DA-G4 and G5 Dual, but upgrading is out of the question on this, my work machine, as I'd have to upgrade the ProTools cards too - about $10k from what I'm told.
The problem appeared immediately after installation of the Nov11th QT7.3/iTunes update. My 10.3.9 ProTools G4 gets most of the way through the QuicKeys X3 v3.11 startup, then the rainbow spinner pops up and 'Application Not Responding' shows in the 'CMD-Shift-ESC' window.
Have tried reinstalling QuicKeys, preceeded by a drive search for word/letter combinations using the Finder search [i.e. no hidden file searches], but no luck. Even went with the default shortcuts just in case one of mine was corrupted but no difference there.
TIA,
Bruce

Bunch of Quicktime questions

I use Quicktime to view the site Hanson.net as I am a huge fan and member of their club.I am disappointed however that all my issues with quicktime now prevent me from viewing the site fully.Here are my issues:
When I try to update an older version of Quicktime an error pop up window comes up saying they cannot locate a file needed to delete the old version which would then allow me to update the new version. Second when I am finally able to use quicktime all my other graphic links appear broken and I cannot fully initialize sites such as youtube.I was wondering if someone can give me a concise step by step direction on how to correct these problems so I can get the full usage out of Quicktime without all these bugs.

QuickTime formats are not used at YouTube.
They use Flash Media and you need another player (Adobe.com).

Quicktime-Heavy Page solutions?

I work as a video editor and am updating my online reel using iWeb '08. Currently, I use pop-up windows for all my Quicktimes (the window pops up when visitors click the "play" button on a jpeg still of the clip). The problem is, some less computer-savvy/lazier potential clients may not bother to enable pop-ups. Originally, I had all the quicktimes just embedded in the page, but on my "TV Network Promos" page, that means 8 quicktimes which seriously impedes the page's loadtime. I don't want to sacrifice any more quality by making the quicktimes even smaller (they're already around 3.8 megs for a 30 second TV commercial). Is there a way to embed the quicktimes directly in the page, but not load them until you click on them? Preferably with a "play" button or icon?

Need itunes without quicktime and cd burning

can i get itunes without quicktime and cd burning? i don't need it
and of course a version working on vista 64

Unfortunately, iTunes will not function properly without Quicktime (usually by popping up the 'iTunes has encountered a problem' message). It's needed for iTunes to play media.
Also, any 64 bit edition of Windows is unsupported by iTunes, and has a whole lot of problems with CD burning/importing. More information on that is listed here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301301

ITunes can't find it's buddy...

I just got a new Nano, and want to put songs on it. But apparently, ITunes needs Quicktime to run, but even after I downloaded Quicktime, an error pops up saying ITunes needs Quicktime to run, and for me to make sure it is properly installed. Any ideas?

Hey NeilJones,
Thanks for the question. You’ll want to delete the app from your computer (even though technically it cannot be found). Once deleted from iTunes, you can return to your purchase history and re-download it:

Error 1905 !!

Everytime I'm halfway through the downloading process of iTunes 7.02 + Quicktime this message pops up...
Error 1905. Module C:/Program
Files/Quicktime/QTOControl.dll failed to unregister
HRESULT - 2147220472. Contact your support personnel
I'm lost and have no clue what's going on. I've been using and updating iTunes for almost 3 years now and this is the first time this has ever happened. Help is needed!! Thank you.
Windows XP

Similar problems, Hkey/quicktime errors prevent install of itunes 7, and also prevent un-install of quicktime.
Seems this has been going on forever, does apple have a clue?
I read one person said to delete all registry entries that have anything to do with quicktime, but the idea of this makes me nervous.

Quicktime or PictureViewer pop up?
