Quicktime Pro will not open

I recently purchased Quicktime Pro v.7 for the PC. After installation I was able to access the program ONCE. Now when I attempt to open the program, it appears to be opening then drops to the bar a the bottom of the screen (minimized). It will not expand / restore, so it's really quite useless. I re-installed it several times, even got a clear download and removed the old file. It simply will not work. I spent what seems like a lifetime looking for help on this site, or (imagine this concept) some sort of actual interactive support option here at Apple.com.
If anyone can help or knows the secret handshake to actually talk to someone at Apple, please share.
HP PC   Windows XP  

Resolved! I used some of the KB info on the Apple site and gleaned that the problem may be with the user identity. Don't know why, and don't really care at this point. What I did was create a new user on my computer, then using that identity, opened QT Pro. It worked! Then, I switched back to the other ID and QT Pro opened for that user as well. (Note the word 'switched' may be related to the message 'switching' on the QT Pro opening window.)
I hope this works for you too. After I got the app to open for my original identity, I was able to delete the new one and it continues to work fine.
And finally, yes, I was able to get the app to open by opening a .mov file. Good luck!

  • QuickTime Pro will not open .wma (Error #2048)

    I have a few .wma movie files that I have created in (the horrible) "Windows Live Movie maker".
    I wanted to be able to play these files on my iTunes, so I foolishly purchased QuickTime Pro after reading the description. "QuickTime 7 Pro can convert your media to different formats, so you can watch a movie or video on your iPhone, iPod, and Apple TV..". But it refuses to open any .wma files so that I can convert them. I keep getting the error message #2048. I read somewhere that installing new codecs might help...? If so, please treat me like 5 year old and explain to me where to start with that. Or should I just give up on it altogether?
    It is really frustrating... I've ripped my hair so much I have bald spots and they are growing by the minute
    Any solutions for this problem will be very much appriciated! Thanks!

    I was afraid of that.. :-(
    Yeah... well, I've tried to import the files to iTunes, both through drag'n drop and by Files/Add to Library but nothing, zip, zero happens. Not even an error message appears. I have no problem with adding mpeg4 files but I get no reaction when trying to add the wma's...

  • Have Macbook Pro & 4th gen iPod Touch. Downloaded & installed iOS 4.3.2 yesterday. Upgrade went without a hitch, but now iTunes on My Macbook Pro will not open. I get an error that says "iTunes" Data too new to be used with this version of iTunes.

    Have a Macbook Pro and a 4th gen iPod Touch. Downloaded and install iOS 4.3.2 yesterday. Upgrade went without a hitch, but now iTunes on My Macbook Pro will not open. I get an error that says --The file "iTunes Library" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes--. I am running iTunes 10.1.  I searched for Updates to my MacBook Pro (running 10.6.7), but comes back saying no updates available. WHAT IS GOING ON??

    Is your computer still authorized in the Store menu in iTunes?

    When I changed to my new MacBookPro I had to authorize it although I used TimeMachine to transfer my settings and data.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro will not open in Windows 8

    Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro will not open in Windows 8. It worked until 2 days ago, now it won't do anything. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it with no luck.

    32 or 64 bit system? Have you updated Acrobat? Was anything else installed between when it worked and did not? When you say AA 9 will not open, does that mean when you have selected it in the programs list (OK, that is the metro interface if you have not installed the desktop options -- 3rd party)?

    Hmmm. There's a couple of things that might be going on with that one.
    Let's try an uninstall and reinstall of QuickTime first.
    If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel. Select "QuickTime", click "Change" and then click "Remove".
    If you're using & or Vista, head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select QuickTime, and then click "Uninstall".
    You can get QuickTime back either via Apple Software Update (in your Start menu go "All Programs > Apple Software Update" ... QuickTime should appear in the "New Programs" section), or by downloading a QuickTimeInstaller.exe from the following location:

  • Itunes document manager pro will not open a document with .cwk extension. It will catch the document then error message states that it cannot open document. Can anyone tell me what Im doing wrong?

    Itunes document manager pro will not open a document with .cwk extension. It will catch the document then error message states that it cannot open document. Can anyone tell me what Im doing wrong?

    Forgive my ignorance but I have never hear of iTunes Document Manager Pro. If you mean Document Manager Pro, i was able to find that. Back to your problem, have you tried opening one of those files in the iOS iWorks apps? Form the quick read that I did about this, .cwk files can be opened by Pages, Numbers or Keynote, depending on what type of document that it is and those files can be read by Document Manager Pro, after properly saving them. I don't see that you can go directly from the .cwk file in Document Manager Pro without converting them first.
    I took a very quick look at the app, so I may be a missing something about its capability.

  • My MacBook Pro will not open any application or program that requires internet, even though I am connected to the web.

    My MacBook Pro will not open any app or program that requires Internet, even though I am connected to the web. I recently installed Norton AntiVirus and think it may have changed a setting that I couldn't find. I uninstalled Norton and it didn't help. Every time I open Safari, iTunes or any other program that tries to connect to the Internet, it crashes. Strangely enough, Skype still works, but nothing else.

    I just experienced this exact same issue with my early 2011 15" macbook pro. Since like a month after purchasing it I had issues with the screen randomly going dark on me. I sent it in for repair inder waranty they replaced the gpu and logic board but I continued to have the same issues with the screen randomly going black sometimes I would need to reboot it in order to get the screen to go back on but it happened so infrequently and I used the computer for school so disnt find the time to resend it in to apple. Just last night the screen started to display the blue screen with black verticle lines on it. I called apple and explained to them  the issues that had been ongoing since I purchased the laptop but they said because I was now outside of warantee that any repairs at thia point wouldn't be covered. Fml so glad I spent 2200 on this future proof macbook pro what a joke my sister purchased a toshiba laptop for 300 4 years ago and it still running like a champ. I loved my macbook but at the price I paid I expect it to last longer than 2 years before leaving me high and dry. *** apple??
