QuickTime Unavailable Pop-Up

I have a problem with a pop-up that is titled "QuickTime Unavailable" and it goes on to say "The QuickTime Plug-in requires the QuickTime System extension version 5 or later". I don't understand this because I have downloaded QuickTime 7.2 a couple of times because I kept getting the pop-up. Anybody have any ideas? I really could use a couple of ideas besides my idea of drop kicking my computer next time I get that pop-up.
FYI: I'm running QT on a Dell Inspiron 1705 with Windows XP.
Thanks for your time,
Dan Evans

I found the fix for this here in another thread. I wish I could remember the name of it. It is simple, just need to check 2 settings. I am sorry I don't remember more. WAIT!!! I found it, the thread is: 'Foxfire Quicktime plug-in issue' by Tennisknight > Jmurphy77 > Jacumba. Jacumba's post has the info. Good luck

Quicktime Failed To Initialize (Error 2096) Quicktime unavailable!?!

I Have An Old 4th generation 40 gig ipod and a dell e521 pc. I have only recently had internet access, before I typed everything by hand onto my itunes program on my computer. I Want to buy a new ipod classic, but I'm Not sure if it would have been compatible with my outdated itunes program. So I Tried to download the newest verision of itunes and I Thought it was sucessfull, but after I Restarted my computer and attempted to open the newly downloaded itunes, I keep getting this error message that reads Quicktime Unavailable: Quicktime failed to initialize (error 2096)!?! i thought quicktime and itunes were being downloaded together. what am I Doing wrong? Thaks.

I had opened the QuickTime FOLDER Properties and the iTunes FOLDER Properties, which is why I did not see a Compatability tab. When I went into the folders, then into the files, I found that QuickTime was not set to Compatability Mode, but iTunes was set to run compatable with Windows 95. I unchecked the box. It appears that iTunes will now launch on my computer.
Thanks very much. You have brought some joy to my day.

Quicktime Unavailable Error

I was running iTunes 9 on my PC and it said there was a new version. So i went to the Apple website and downloaded the new iTunes 10 with Quicktime for Windows. I ran the setup file and it said my installation was finished. I tried to run iTunes after that but iTunes keeps showing the error "Quicktime Unavailable : Quicktime was not found. Quicktime is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again." I have tried this multiple times with the same result everytime. Please help! It was working perfectly before and now its not. Also whenever the error message showed up the first time I clicked on the Quicktime shortcut on my desktop and it ran fine.

I have same issue. Called support twice. Works after install once and then get same Quicktime Unavailable error again and again. Uninstalled and installed several times. If anyone knows a fix it would be greatly appreciated.

I am having the same issue... Please advise...
I avidly use facetime DAILY and for about 3-4 days now, whenever I try and send or receive facetime request it hangs up immediately without ever picking up. This is happening on all my devices and with everyone and doesn't matter what network/ wifi I'm connected to. This is definitely a network issue with individual profiles...

Annoying Quicktime, Dock Pop-Up and AVI problem

Hi,
If anyone can shed some light on this I'd appreciate ...
Everytime I watch an AVI file via Quicktime in Full Screen, the dock would pop up from out of nowhere and remain there whilst the movie is playing until I reduce and increase the screen size in QT. I have checked to see whether it could be triggered by mouse movements but this does not seem to be the case, so I'm a little lost as to what could be causing this and how to fix it.
Any ideas?

Sorry, I do not know the answer. However, apparently you are not alone......

"QuickTime Unavailable" message

Recently I found it impossible to access videos on various websites such as 'The Huffington Post, 'New Scientist', and so forth. When I try to access a video on these sites I get the following message:
The QuickTime Plug-in requires the Quicktime System
extension version 5 or later.
Then it directs me to acquire QuickTime through your website. To make matters worse, the message keeps reappearing periodically and continuously whether or not I am trying to access a video and regardless of what application I am in.
I have uninstalled the old version on QuickTime and downloaded and installed version 7 for Windows XP. The problem persists.
Is the QuickTime System extension version 5 something separate from QuickTime Player that I have to download separately?
Is there a fix for this problem?

The instruction at 0x10001040 referenced memory at 0x10001040. The memory could not be "read".
that one typically means you've got a broken QuickTime. if we can get your QT functional again, your itunes should launch.
just doublechecking a couple of things before proceeding.
are you getting this when you install on your Server 2003?
if so, what error message do you get if you try a standalone QT 7.1 install?
Quicktime 7.1 Standalone Installer
is the error message a 0x80040707?

I have a brand new computer and running Vista. My problem is every webpage I go to, i get a pop-up saying "Quicktime plug-in requires the quicktime system extension version 5 or later". When I click ok, it brings me to a Quicktime upgrade site from Apple Computers. I tried to delete it, I used regedit command and deleted all things saying apple or quicktime. restart the compuer and still gets the pop-up, but this time at the top of the pop-up, it says Quicktime Unavailable. I installed Quicktime and itunes, quicktime alone . I been trying to delete this a month. PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN.

THE BOX THAT WAS SUGGESTED TO BE UNCHECKED WAS ALL READY UNCHECKED, SO I TRIED UNCHECKING THE OTHER IN DIFFERENT COMBINATIONS, THE I CHANGED SO OF THE PROTOCALS TO WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER THE HAD QUICKTIME AS THE DEFAULT PROGRAM.

Multiple quicktimes on same page, same place

Hopes this makes sense but what I would like is a blank white page with multiple "text menus (hyperlinks)" on the left side of the page that when selected will activate appropriate quicktimes that will then open on the same page, but on the right side.
However, I don't want to see the quicktimes or a quicktime window until it is selected. Then, after the quicktime has played it should disappear and then if another option is chosen from the menu on the left, another quicktime will pop up in exactly the same place. I need this to happen at least 5 times per page.
I'm trying to figure out how to do this without creating a whole new identical page that would be activated and then have to load. All I want to load for each link is the QT's that would appear on that same page, in exactly the same place on the right.
Sorry this is a bit of a mouthful...

If there's to be any QuickTime on the page, the QuickTime plugin is going to load, so there's going to be that Q at some point or another. If that's ok, then look at the examples and follow the link to the tutorial on this page.

Quicktime not playing certain .mov files

I have a situation where Quicktime isn't displaying anything on a particular .mov file on the internet. The quicktime control pops up, and starts playing, but there is no image or sound. I'm using a PowerPC mac with Quicktime 7.1.2 and OS 10.4.7 on an eMac. I'm able to view other quicktime files. The same mov file works fine on another Mac in our house, which has identical software (Quicktime and OS) except that it's a newer intel Mac. Any suggestions?

Open the "QuickTime" and "Internet Plug-Ins" folder in the main Library of both computers and compare contents to see if the working platform contains additional required components or lacks any that may be causing a conflict.

Exporting video through quicktime to iPod

When I try to export a home video to my iPod using quicktime, it pops up a box asking me to purchase quicktime which I already am using. Under "file" I open the file and then when I chose "export" is when it pops up this box. Can someone please advise what I am to do.I even reinstalled quicktime hoping this would fix the issue.
