Quicktime uninstall error "A newer version of quicktime is already..."

We have 2 new ipods and iphone. We attempted to install the newest version of itunes but when running the install I get this message: A newer version of quicktime is already installed. This installation cannot proceed while the newer version of quicktime is installed." Sadly, my first response was to uninstall the itunes we had that was running fine (aside from a pop up message that would tell us that some of our quicktime needed updating (not exact words, but I can't replicate the error message)
Unable to uninstall quicktime via window uninstall- I get the same error message as above.
I since have manually removed the quicktime folder from my program files. I have used the search feature to look for instances of quicktime and can't find anything else. I have even, at the advice of another, gone into the registry (start, regedit) and then removed quicktime folders found under apple computer. I have run "advance system care" in hopes to clean up the registry.
I am still unable install itunes and continue to get the same message when attempting to install itunes or uninstall quicktime. I need some help! (my kids are freaking out, thus so am I)

Most likely we're looking at a damaged QuickTime.msi file stuck on your system. (That contains the installation database for the previous version of QuickTime on the system.)
Unfortunately, these sorts of msi-related troubles have gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for *at least version 3.0* of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes 9.2 again. Does the install go through properly this time?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • I can't install mcafee siteadvisor  the installer stops and says, "A newer version of SiteAdvisor is already installed on your Mac."

    I have a late 2013 Macbook pro with retina display running OS X (Mavericks) my siteadvisor had recently grayed out and was not protecting against sites so I uninstalled my acfee internet security suite (provided by Cox with my account) and the siteadvisor altogether. I then reinstalled the Mcafee internet security and went to download the siteadvisor website. Once I went to download the siteadvisor installer stops and says "A newer version of SiteAdvisor is already installed on your Mac." How do I get my siteadvisor installed and back working again.

    The download, if you mean this one :
    https://sadownload.mcafee.com/products/SA/mac/website/McAfeeSiteAdvisor.dmg
    includes the plugin, as well as other software.

  • I am trying to install a registered copy of Photoshop Lightroom that I never installed on my Apple iMac with software version 10.10.  I get the message "Adobe Lightroom 1.  Cannot be installed on this disk because a newer version of this software already

    I am trying to install a registered copy of Photoshop Lightroom that I never installed on my Apple iMac with software version 10.10.
    I get the message “Adobe Lightroom 1.  Cannot be installed on this disk because a newer version of this software already exists on this disk”
    If it is here – I cannot find it anywhere, and I don’t believe that I ever installed it.
    I have ordered the upgrade to Lightroom 5.0 and figured that I should install Lightroom 1.0 first.
    How can I solve this problem

    Actually when LR 5 starts for the first time after it is installed it will have a dialog to Buy, Try or Enter a serial number. You select Enter a serial number and enter the LR 5 serial number first and then because it is an upgrade serial number it will ask for the serial number of a Previous version. You then enter the LR 1 serial number.

  • Can't install Quicktime - Error "A newer version of quicktime already..."

    Hi, I have a Dell XPS running Windows Xp Media edition. Quicktime files would not play so I downloaded the newest version of Quicktime and an error comes up saying, "A newer version of quicktime is already installed. This installation of Quicktime can not proceed while the newer version is installed." I can't find a newer version on the computer and the application seems absent. Only suplimentary Quicktime files are found. Please help.
    Thanks,
    Eric
    Dell XPS   Windows XP  

    I'm having this exact same problem. I have a Gateway running Windows XP Media Edition.
    I can't run quicktime, it says it's not there. I've tried uninstalling using add/remove and it says the uninstall.log file is missing. I tried uninstalling using the QT uninstaller option in its folder, it says the uninstall.log is not there. I tried 'repair' option on the iTunes+QT installer that I downloaded. Still the same issue.
    I tried the stand alone QuickTime installer and it tells me "A newer version of quicktime already exists".
    I tried deleting the residual quicktime folders from my c:\program files. I tried deleting the residual QT references from my regedit. I downloaded the MS Windows Install Clean Up and looked in there--found 2 more things that could possibly be quicktime related and removed those. I tried again -- same error message.
    I'm not sure what else to do. I'd really like to get Quicktime and iTunes working by Christmas so I can sync my shiney new iPod.

  • Error:  A newer version of data type was found than one required

    Hi Experts,
    we made a changes to a table and then transported the table to the quality system. But a program which is referring to this table, results in dump with the below error message.
    Error Message>>>>>>>>>>" A newer version of data type <TABLE> was found than one required "
    The issue occures inspite of
    1. re-activated the table and send to quality system
    2. Re-activated the program
    3. Activated and adjusted database in SE14.
    Please let me know the correction to be taken to resolve the issue.
    Regards
    Suresh Kumar

    This happens when you modify your new data element, domain while another program is currently using it.
    Simply get out completely of the program, re activate the program, reactivate the table. You might need to run se14 to convert the database table but this does not happen frequently. Try first to reactivate the program

  • Error Installing new versions of iTunes

    Whenever I attempt to install a newer version of iTunes (7.2 and higher) I get an error message, "C:\ProgramFiles\iTunes\iTunes.Resouces\fi.lproj\iPodSettings.nib\classes.nib Verify that you have access to that directory."
    I don't know what it means or how to fix it. Any help would be much appreciated.

    "C:\ProgramFiles\iTunes\iTunes.Resouces\fi.lproj\iPodSettings.nib\classes.nib Verify that you have access to that directory."
    A message like that citing a file in the lproj folders (language resources ... you're having trouble with one of the Finnish ones, i believe), can often be caused by file damage or disk damage in the area of the file in question.
    So, try running a chddsk over your C drive:
    How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? if so, does an itunes install go through properly afterwards?

  • Invoice summary sheet errors in new version-

    Until recently I've used Numbers '09 for invoicing and included a 'Summary Sheet' to keep abreast of outstanding amounts.
    Screenshot shows what has worked succesfully in Numbers '09 but the same file opened in new version 3.0.1 gives me a red error triangle with the message "The formula contains an invalid reference" - can anybody help please?
    Formula from Above screenshot that works in '09 but not in v3:
    INDIRECT(A3 & "!Total::B4")

    No. Sheets shown in left hand panel are named sequentially and refer to an individual invoice number. So I may have 30+ invoices for a month. Each invoice sheet has a table named Total which has rows for discount, sub total, vat and total owed by a certain date. In this summary sheet I obviously want to refer to each sheet's 'total owed by a certain date' cell and in Numbers '09 the formula was calling each invoice sheet name successfully from column A on this same sheet and then referencing the Total table's correct cell. I'm just trying to be as lazy as poss and when I have a load of invoices to bung on the summary sheet I can just select row above and drag down to populate new rows with sequentially filled invoices numbers with the formula pre-filled.
    I've made that sound a lot longer than it probably should have!
