Quicktime/prokit updates

is anyone having issues with the quicktime update 7.4.5 and the prokit update 4.5...
when the quicktime update is loaded are you having any trouble with media in final cut that had already been digitized?
-thx

The short and blunt of it is - if you have a working system, don't screw with it.
The only time you should update things are when ...
a) you have a full clone of the system disk
and
b) you have let others do your final testing to shake out any glitches the beta testers did not catch
and
c) have a problem that you know the updates address
and
d) you feel lucky.
Otherwise, leave well enough alone.
Once burned, you should be twice shy.
Good luck,
x

  • ProKit Update for LP Pro users

    Any one take the latest update on offer.
    I am still on 10.4.10 LP7.2.3
    I have avoided the latest batch of updates due to troubles reported here.
    But am having increasing issues with Safari ...
    Any advice is much appreciated.
    Ie which of the below have had trouble re Logic and 3rd party plug in's etc ///
    Cheers
    Dee
    PS Specifically the following are on offer (and I've not taken them). I am wondering about numbers 1, 4, 7 and 8 only (as the others I am sure I can take and will not affect Logic)
    Recent Updates Not Taken:
    1. ProKit Update 4.5
    2 iLife Support 8.2
    3. Keynote Update 4.0.2
    4. iTunes 7.6
    5. Pages Update 3.0.2
    6. Numbers Update 1.0.2
    7. QuickTime 7.4.1
    8 Mac OS X Update (Intel) 10.4.11

    How can we find out any info from Apple? The info page is ridiculously short of info. As well as not even MENTIONING Logic Pro 7 either way, it gives no info whatsoever as to what the fix does.
    It's really not acceptable. Logic Pro was not cheap and it's as if it has been forgotten since releasing the new version.
    I've also had lots of problems with Logic since installing Leopard. I hope 10.5.2 fixes things... Wish I had stayed on Tiger...

  • A Quicktime plugin update is recommended for FF 3.6.4 on mac os 10.4 but no new version is available?

    A Quicktime plugin update is recommended for FF 3.6.4 but for mac os 10.4 there is no new version? My current Qt-version is 7.6.4 am I missing something?
    == When I updateted to FF 3.6.4

    Does this only occur with 10.6.8?  I just gave this a try on my 10.8.3 system with AIR 3.6 but couldn't reproduce the crash on quit.  However, I also was unable to log into the application due to lack of credentials.  Could you please open a bug on this over at bugbase.adobe.com?  If we need to log in to reproduce the bug, please send any test credentials to [email protected]  Once the bug has been entered, please let me know the bug number so I can attach the symbolicated crash log to the bug report.
    Thanks,
    Chris
    Ps.  If you haven't already, can you also try out our 3.7 beta build?

  • Why does Software Update want to install ProKit Update when I don't have any of the listed apps?

    Software Update just prompted me to install ProKit Update 7.0.  I don't have any of the applications listed in the description.  I searched for each with Spotlight just to make sure.  My Macbook has only a clean install of Snow Leopard, Microsoft Office 2008, and Xcode 4.0.2.  Why am I being prompted to install this update?
    Extracted from the description: This update is recommended for users of Final Cut Pro, Motion, Soundtrack Pro, DVD Studio Pro, iPhoto, Aperture, Final Cut Express, Logic Pro, MainStage, Logic Express and iAd Producer.

    It doesn't check whether any of those applications are installed. All Macs come with iPhoto. You may have removed it, but SU doesn't know that.
    I do not have iPhoto installed and it was never installed.  iPhoto is part of iLife, which is on disc #2.  I slicked the disk and did a clean install of Snow Leopard using only disc #1.  I am surprised that Software Update doesn't check what is installed so it knows what update to install, I thought that was the whole point of Software Update.  It seems to know what hardware drivers are installed and will only install updates for those specific drivers.  But fine with me, I will install that update.

  • My FCS3 serial number wont work when installing prokit update. WHY?

    I have FCS3 installed on my computer and when I downloaded and installed the prokit update I launched final cut pro, it ask for the serial number. When I entered it it said it was invalid. I have my retail serial number so why doesnt this work. now I cant launch any of my FCS3 apps.

    Im sorry correction, when I installed the pro application update it asked for a serial number again and when i entered it, its said it was invalid.
    How does this differ from your original post?

    Updates do not require serial numbers. If you are trying to upgrade from, say, Final Cut v6 to Final Cut v7, yes, that will require your previous serial.
    Pretend we are not able to see what you're doing. Explain it to us carefully.

  • Very serious performance probelms after ProKit update 5.1!!!

    After installing Prokit update 5.1 my PPC G5 10.5.8 machine is having HORRIBLE problems. Aplications (Logic, disk utility, iTunes, crash reporter and a couple others) crash while in use but there's no way to make them Force Quit. This has popped up all of the sudden, the only thing that I've done different is this a fore mentioned update.
    yesterday I was working in my studio for several hours. Logic would crash, I'd try to Force Quit but it wouldn't. Left it trying for 20 minutes. Then I'd try a reboot but got the message (roughly) "reboot has timed out because Logic is still running". I'd try force quiting from the dock as well as the Apple menu. So I'd have to hard reset with the power button. A bit later, it happened again, then again and again, all the time having to hard reboot. I started importing CDs into my iTunes library, same problem, had to hard reboot. Ran Disk utility, verified and repaired permissions on all my drives, found plenty of problems that were corrected. Ran disk utility again just to be sure, not IT crashes and won't force quit. Crash reporter comes up; please give a brief description of what happened. I fill out a brief report, hit "send to Apple", nothing, won't connect. I go to manually shut down again but Time Machine is running... and won't stop! I can't get it to quit, finish, abort, anything...
    I leave the studio, eat dinner, calm down, go back to Logic, ALL of the work that I've done over the last 6 hours (and saved, saved, saved... I have a compulsion with "Apple / S") is gone. Erased, like it never happened. So, this is what Time Machine is for, right? Wrong. Time Machine seems to have stopped backing anything up sometime in the afternoon. Neat fail-safe guys.
    So here it is, early the next day and I'm almost afraid to go back in there. Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks a ton!!!
    All the best, Mark
    p.s. All software is up to date and nothing has changed in the machine (other than the update) and has been working fine up until now.

    Based on the number of posts on this issue, my guess is that the Apple software developers know there is a significant problem with ProKit 5.1. I wrote another post here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11268496#11268496
    They will fix it and ship a patch. They always do. I am just trying to be patient. And backing up projects every 10 minutes or so.

  • Updated with wrong Prokit update

    Hello Everyone, I recently did a Prokit update on the www.apple.com. However, I should have only did the 4.5 Prokit update for my operating system but I also did 5.0 and since then I have not been able to launch Logic Pro. I'm wondering if there is a way to undo what I've done with the 5.0 update? I think the only issue I'll have once that is fixed is to make sure all my loops and where they need to be in soundtrack Pro. I'm most concerned about adjusting the Prokit update for my operating system 10.4.11 so it's the right update. Thanks
    Erv

    Hi Erv, not certain but perhaps you could re-install the 4.5 Update if you remove the PKG stubs from Library>Receipts for those last two.

  • A3.01 still keeps crashing here after ProKit update...

    I was keeping my fingers crossed, but in 64-bit mode A3.01 still keeps crashing after the ProKit update.

    What did the Genius Bar recommend?
    Almost every time I've run into freezes, they've been resolved by deleting preferences.
    If you're running 10.1.2 or higher, just hold down the option and command keys at launch.
    If an earlier version, I'd download and run Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager.

  • Prokit update is corrupt

    It's hard to know where to post this but the prokit update appears to be corrupt. Reinstalled everything today on my mac and the prokit update in software update kept failing.
    So I downloaded it from http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/application_updates/prokit45.html and the DMG is getting an invalid checksum.
    Can anyone confirm that the update on apple's servers is corrupt?
    (it might be a regional thing but it would be nice to know if anyone else is finding the dmg corrupt)

    I tried to download it two machines and the dmg wouldn't verify on either. But I just tried downloading via a proxy and that download mounts.
    So it seems that it's the mirror for where I am (UK) where the file is corrupt.

  • ITunes and Quicktime hanging on start up after Quicktime v7 update

    Heya,
    After updating my OS from 10.3.4 to 10.3.8 then 10.3.9 and installing Quicktime v7 iTunes and Quicktime hung on start up. Neither load. All i wanted was to get ready for adding video to my iPod and now nothing loads at all! Any Ideas??
    Thanks

    Same exact problem here. Obviously this is not our computers, it's a bug in the new release of itunes and/or quicktime.

  • No Sound, No Audio after QuickTime & Safari Update

    I am stumped. Ran repair permission prior to an install of the new quick time and Safari. Ran it after. Checked my very limited "sound" preferences, volume is up. And not evidently a hardware issue since I have two drives and the original one where I very seldom venture, the sound works fine if I change my start up disc and revisit the ancient world of 10.3.6.
    I may or may not have reset the PRAM (but with no audio, there are no chimes). My main disc is running 10.3.9 with all recent security updates. And sound disappeared after getting the new Safari and Quick Time updates.
    Obviously, Quick Time is the most likely culprit. But-- how do I uninstall it? If that is the answer? Or is there some other fix? I haven't checked the Tiger posts. Perhaps this isn't a 10.3.9 issue alone. Anyone know?
    VERY much obliged for help.

    A return to an earlier version of Quicktime did the trick.

  • White balance issues after ProKit Update 5.1

    After the new ProKit 5.1 update I get a new reprocess block. When I reprocess the image the white balance gets messed up. The Tint sliders go to 50. The white balance presets are all off too. Is anyone else having issue?

    This is frustrating me too. Some things I've discovered:
    Reprocessing photos tagged with the 1.0 to 1.1 which required reprocessing caused most of the issues. The auto-converted photos would go from 5200K temp, -1 tint or similar to having a wierd tint. However, using a tint around 90 (off the range the tint slider can be adjusted to. Similarly, using the dropper to select a whitepoint results in these out of range tints. However, the tint looked OK, it's just out of the range you can slide it to.
    I tried the deletion of the Raw decode plist and that didn't fix things.
    Also of note, I have a selection of images with each of my camera's whitepoint settings (a Canon 30d as it happens). If I reprocess each, select the whitepoint brick to enable it and press reset, I get back the whitepoint which was interpretted from the RAW (and hence the cameras whitepoint setting). These also leap from say ~5200K daylight -1 tint (if I recall correctly) to having offscale tints. This suggests there's a new range at play for RAW 3?
    Incredibly frustrating. If anyone has any reasonable fixes, I'd love to hear about them, or preferably could we have an update from Apple which resolves the issue.
    I understand that reprocessing can cause small shifts, but my photos which have not been heavily adjusted look totally wrong when reprocessed. For now I will not be reprocessing anything until there's a fix.
    Also of note, it looks like way back I locked my default raw processor to 1.0 or 1.1. That may have caused issues. I have since reset the camera defaults to the reset RAW processing defaults for 3. I'll try importing some stuff from camera tonight and see what it does.

  • Unable to Install Quicktime 7 Update

    I've tried several times to update the current version of Quicktime but each time I get the message that the current version can not be uninstalled. I've tried Add/Remove in XP as well as a stand-alone uninstaller but neither can remove Quicktime. I would appreciate any suggestions as to how to resolve this problem. I could use the brute force method of just deleting the Quicktime folder but that would leave stuff in the registry and would be a bad idea all around I think.

    Hi Joanne,
    If you haven't seen it already, there's a solution to some of the QuickTime 7.1 uninstall problems. See "cannot uninstall Quicktime" posted on page 2 of this forum by 'shaidul'. Not sure if it will solve your problem but I followed the advice given there by another member and it worked for me. I was able to finally remove Quicktime. Read the message and then go to this URL to download Windows Installer CleanUp Utility:

    The program is free from MIcrosoft. Hope it works for you.
