QuickTime stopped working after installing upgrading to Snow Leopard

Hi,
I am using a MacBook Pro and was running Mac OS X Leopard, and QuickTime worked perfectly. After I upgraded to Snow Leopard I can´t get QuickTime to work. When I try to reinstall QuickTime for Snow Leopard it tells me it is already installed.
How will I get it to work again?

but now I can not open QuickTime at all.
I hate to ask, but what does this mean? Are you double-clicking or "drop" opening a movie and no player is opening? Are you simply clicking on the application icon and no player is opening but the application name does display in the top-left area of you monitor? Do you get a modal message saying something is wrong or saying the application quit unexpectedly while opening? Please try to be more specific regarding what is actually taking place as this may provide additional clues as to whether the problem is in the application, the operating system, 32-bit/64-bit mode switching/access problems, missing playback components for 32-bit routines, component list ordering conflicts, etc.

    Because something is wrong.
    To fix, try the following in order, testing after each until one of these suggestions works:
    (1) Restart Mac.
    (2) Use Disk Utility to repair permissions.
    (3) OS X Mavericks: Reinstall OS X
    (4) Apple - Support - MacBook - Contact Support

  • ITunes and QuickTime stopped working after an upgrade...

    I have been pulling my hair out trying to get my iTunes working again. Here is what I have done already in order:
    1. Does not work regardless of user (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302856)
    2. Tried running with changes to MSCONFIG
    - Ran according to Apple Support Web Site (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538)
    - Ran in Diagnostics mode
    - Ran in /SAFEMODE
    3. Uninstalled and removed from any reference from registry
    4. Removed iTunes configuration files (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302386)
    5. Installed WinInspector Spy and launched iTunes to see what happened. Unfortunately I have not figured out how to copy and paste the log, but it shows the iTunes window class being created, a bunch of other stuff, then the OfficeWatson class, stuff and then the infamous "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close" message. After hitting the Send Error Report, I see the OfficeWatson window being destroyed and that is it. This leads me to believe that the problem is somehow with the outlook integration between iTunes and Windows? So I looked in my Add/Remove programs and sure enough Office and Outlook were upgraded the day after the last time i was able to use iTunes. So I tried uninstalling Office, iTunes and QuickTime. QuickTime refused to uninstalled claiming a fatal error. I then forcably removed it as described in the apple knowledge paper. Another interesting point, when I ran QuickTime, nothing happens, not even a crash message. When I run QuickTime Preferences from the system tray, the dialog shows, but when I click on the FileTypes tab, I get a RUNDLL error: "An exception occurred while trying to run "Shell32.dll, Control_RunDLL "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\QuickTime.cpl".
    I also tried running StraceNtX.exe against it, but it doesnt create the right environment for iTunes (it thinks it is Windows 2000 and does have the right service pack).
    PLEASE can someone help? This is the second time this has happened to me. The first time was on another computer that came with a "real" restore point (not the stupid one Windows has that does not work) and I solved it by simply restoring back in time. This time I do not have that option!
    ARGH - I really do not want to have to use Media Player.
    Is there a way to force a stack trace? I am a UNIX programmer and not familiar with Windoze.

    It sounds as though things have got pretty screwed up. If you couldn't clean things up properly with the MS installer cleaup, there is thread on cleaning up uninstall information in the registry.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3637190&#3637190
    I am not sure that I have anything more to offer as you appear to have done most things. Have you tried turning off all security software while doing the install, and doing the MSconfig thing with just Quicktime. Presumably your system is free of malware?
    As a matter of interst, what happens if you have the task manager running when you start Quicktime, does it start and then stop, or keep running or not start at all?
    A few people seem to have these intractable problems and the forum expert on this has been away since christmas, but you could try searching the forum for "b noir" posts about install/launch problems.

  • Autofill stopped working after installing latest OS Mountail Lion update Can anyone help? I've gone into preferences and

    Hi Eric, it is Safari but I thunk I've solved it by dragging the autofill into the safari toolbar and clicking on it when I want to use the fearture. Nothing else worked. this OS is a crock as far as I am concerned.

  • WiFi stops working after install of latest 10.8.5 update on MacBook 5,1 third time reinstall OS X

    WiFi stops working after install of latest 10.8.5 update on MacBook 5,1 third time reinstall OS.
    MB used as email and surfing tool when on vacation. Worked fine for months. Installed the latest security patch (update) and WiFi quit working. Two days later (still on vacation) WiFi started working again and worked fine for the next 2 days.
    Came home and formatted and reinstalled 10.8.5 and all was fine again. We are selling the MacBook and setup new user, everything worked fine.
    The update came up again so I decided to install it and WiFi instantly stopped working after the restart.
    Does anybody have any idea what is happening.
    Thanks

    Not really, although WiFi has been a longstanding problem for lots of people. I fix for some breaks others.
    However, if you are trying to sell it, you need to revert it back to the OS that shipped with it. You cannot sell your copy of Mountain Lion with the Mac. It is only licensed to you.
    You also need to include the system disks that came with the Mac. If it came with Leopard (10.5), and you have a Snow Leopard (10.6) disk, you can install that if you provide that disk also.

  • My camera connection kit stopped working after I upgraded to  ios5

    My camera connection kit stopped working after I upgraded to ios5. If I plug it in to my iphone I get a message saying it is not recognised, but when I plug it into the ipad it does nothing at all. I've tried resetting it, but that makes no difference.
    I have an ipad 1 which I bought because it had lots of storage. I'm going on holiday soon, and I want to be able to upload my holiday photos to my ipad while I'm away.
    Any suggestions?

    Actually this sounds the same problem I have on my iPad2.
    I use a cheap copy of the CCK which I got off eBay.
    It worked great when fitted with a 16gb SD card, but since I upgraded to 5.01 it has stopped working.
    Sorry, no solution at this point but it worked on 4.3.3 but not on 5.01.
    I'll keep on looking, was considering a proper CCK thinking the cheapmversion may be drawing too much current, but it sounds like that might not work either.

  • PS 6 beta stopped working - after installing my old tablet

    PS 6 beta stopped working - after installing my old tablet
    Just to let U know, everywhere else (GIMP,Paint etc) there is no problem,
    also tablet is fully working and operational,
    drivers are up to date,
    PS 6 beta brign an error 01 .
    Also say about contating support ...
    How can I constact support when I Dont have a license or serial number etc..
    since it ask me about it while trying to reach support.... pointless! mad!
    ? What now? should I trash my favorite tablet and buy some junk just because of this BUG?
    or will it be solved somehow?
    I do believe that nobody will even care about one human and none of programmers will update
    database of this program for older tablets,,, but JSUT TO LET U KNOW - its not working.
    and free software as GIMP is working just perfectly, and adobe **** is not even opening a program..

    oh well, as I mentioned my tablet is old, ( but i thought that new version of photoshop will contain also some parts from old ones for compability, as U said its not working like that o.o  ) is is Pentagram Duo Pen (USB)
       I uninstalled tablet drivers and adobe software and reinstalled again without tablet, now it's working so it was a driver that messed up all..
    Oh, the error code nr was : 1 
    i also was suprised but this is what I got from photoshop in error message the rest of it was about contacting adobe.com/support ..blahblahblah
    I am still not fully understanding how its possible that so well paid software is not compatble with my super old tablet while even stupid paint is..
    I am sure it is complicated, however as U see I am not able to anything else but operate with mouse.. or switch to linux and practice in gimp..
    if U wonna to take a look at the file of that driver i will post it here :
    (more files on http://download.pentagram.eu/en/drivers/graphic_tablets/duopen_usb/DuoPen_USB_Win2K_XP.zip)

  • After installing OC X Snow leopard my Mac won't go to sleep. unless I close everything out.  It wasn't like that before the "upgrade".  How do I fix it?  Thanks

    After installing OC X Snow leopard my Mac won't go to sleep. unless I close everything out.  It wasn't like that before the "upgrade".   I have looked at the Energy saving icon and everything looks OK.  How do I fix it?  Thanks

    OK I solved it.
    I followed instructions from http://superuser.com/questions/214943/what-is-preventing-my-macbook-from-sleepin g/409481/
    Go to Utilities in the Applications folder and open the "Terminal" app.
    Type pmset -g and hit Enter
    If "sleep" has 0 next to it and the words "imposed by" or "prevented by ; The number next to the imposed by is the process ID causing the problem. Copy that number.
    Type ps -e | grep <process ID here> and hit Enter. This will list all running processes that have that ID (will also include the grep process)
    For me it turned out to be Internet Sharing enabled that prevented my MBP from sleeping.

    Hi, jewlssch. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If the Mail application will not launch, I would recommend processing any available updates on your Mac Pro and test launching Mail.  If the issue persists, process a reinstall of Mavericks.
    Reinstall OS X

    I have a imac 2.4 ghz intel core 2 duo 1gb 667 mhz ddr2 sdram

  • Greetings: I have just acquired an older mini mac (2006 1.66 ghz core 2 duo) Anyway, it had Tiger 10.4 on it and the Bluetooth worked.  I upgraded to Snow Leopard and everything works fine - except Bluetooth. The Bluetooth icon isn't there. Any ideas?

    Greetings:
    I have just acquired an older mini mac (2006 1.66 ghz core 2 duo) Anyway, it had Tiger 10.4 on it and the Bluetooth worked for the wireless Apple keyboard and mouse.  I upgraded to Snow Leopard and everything works fine - everything except Bluetooth.
    The Bluetooth icon does not exist in the System Preferenc screen.
    I tried to download Bluetooth from Apple site but the message I got told me that I didn't need it. 
    Under Finder, Utilities, I found Bluetooth File Exchange but the message I got was that I had to connect a Bluetooth device to my computer.
    I have to admit that I have no idea what's going on here.  I am hoping to avert the need to try another complete re-install of Snow Leopard.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Puzzled is a polite word for it.
    Thanks Barry - I found the file and trie to send it to trash.  The response: (This item cannot be trashed as it it owned by the system).
    After dancing around with PRAM and SMC and turning on while holding the power-cntrl-option-shift and heavens knows what else, I now have the Bluetooth symbol on the top of the menu bar but it is ghoseted and has a squiggly line through it.   This, I didn't have before so I read this as some progress.  It notes that "Bluetooth is not available">
    However, the Bluetooth icon is still missing from the System Preferences window - you know, between "network" and "sharing".
    You note that you reckon the issue is not software based and you may be correct.  The reason that I wonder about that though, is that before I installed Snow Leopard, the keyboard and mouse both paired with the box under the Tiger 10.4.  That leads me to conclude that hardware is functional and that there is some screwy little bit of software that is not cooperating.
    If I could delete Bluetooth from the system and re-install a fresh version, that might help.  Or, is there a way I can use the Snow Leopard install disc and only load in Bluetooth?
    I'm stumped.
    Thanks for your time
