Quicktime update stopped monitor display?

I came to my computer and noticed Apple had pushed an update, I believe to Quicktime. The software installed and wanted a reboot. After completing my work I rebooted, but the display never came back on.
I wouldn't suspect the Quicktime update, except it for the timing. We coincidentally experienced the same symptoms on two other computers this week, one while we were trying to get iTunes set up. Is it possible the update did something to the graphics card? Replacing the graphics card didn't help with the other two.
The monitor still seems to work and sends a "no signal" message when the computer is turned off, and when the computer is turned back on the "no signal" message goes away, but the display never comes up. It looks like maybe the monitor is having trouble syncing up, as there seems to be movement behind the black curtain of the display.
Is anyone aware of this problem with Quicktime, or maybe it was iTunes? Any suggestions?

After A LOT more searching, I came across this article:
http://daringfireball.net/2007/10/bluein_theface
And I managed to FIX IT!
Turns out, it was actually Application Enhancer that was causing the problem (I've not rebooted my MacBook in about 2 weeks, so it could have actually been a number of things).
Anyway, I couldn't get it to boot into safeboot, so I chuck the Leopard disk in, booted holding C to boot from the the disk, then opened up the Terminal (from the Utilities menu) and deleted Application Enhancer:
rm -rf /System/Library/SystemConfiguration/ApplicationEnhancer.bundle
The actual path I had to use was in fact:
rm -rf /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD/System/Library/SystemConfiguration/ApplicationEnhancer.bundle
Hope that helps someone else out there.

    when i try to update itunes and quicktime, it stops me and says " The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" please help.

    Before trying the update again, use Microsoft's Fix it solution at http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall. Use it to uninstall iTunes and Quicktime. It bypasses this not uncommon problem. When the solution finishes, the selected program will be uninstalled. It can take several minutes and I have seen as much as half an hour.
    After iTunes & Quicktime are uninstalled, try the update again.

  • Macbook pro had coffee spilled on it 2 weeks ago, all works fine except monitor display.

    Macbook pro had coffee spilled on it two weeks ago; all working fine now except for the monitor, display is dim and photos not appearing properly. Any suggestions? Apple said would cost too much to repair, anyone had any luck with outside repair facilities? thanks.

    I would check with HP. Your scanner may need a firmware update and updated HP software. Start here:

  • After installing latest quicktime update CPU lags/freezes

    After just installing the latest quicktime update through my apple software my cpu has had extra strain - hearing the fan going on constantly... it started freezing and getting ridiculous. I uninstalled quicktime and it is perfectly fine, this doesnt fix the problem however as I can't run itunes without quicktime... anyone else having this problem or have a way to get around it?

    *An update*
    I have found an ad hoc solution to this problem. I found that I did not calibrate my battery for a long time. Coconut battery showed my current battery capacity to be at 88%. So, I calibrated my battery. After a restart, I found that the battery capacity had increased to 91% and the fan noise had stopped.
    The machine is running for over two hours after the calibration and I haven't yet heard that noise. I shall run the machine for few more hours and see whether the sound reappears.
    Clearly, if this is a solution, it is ad hoc. If somebody can come up with an analytic solution, that will be great. My hunch was that the fan speed is somewhat tied with the battery capacity in some indirect manner.

  • Loginwindow (Not Responding) after iTunes & Quicktime update

    In order to activate my new iPhone this morning I needed to upgrade to iTunes 7.5 and the corresponding Quicktime update. After a reboot and logging in I was presented with the desktop, the dock and a spinning beachball . . . which still hadn't gone away after 10 minutes.
    After a while I tried a few things and noticed that the dock was working, until I ctrl clicked on the finder icon that is. After that the dock froze and I rebooted with a long power button press. After logging again I had the same problem, desktop, working dock and spinning beachball.
    This time I hit one of my dock stacks and launched the Activity Monitor, only to discover that a process called 'loginwindow' was Not Responding. On force quitting this everything went away and I was back to the login prompt. I logged in again and found the same thing - I can use all the applications I can get to through the dock but have no finder . . .
    Any ideas?? HELP!!

    OK, here's /var/log/system.log from boot. Are the following two lines significant??

    It is a Remote Desktop Client Update 3.7.1
    Thank you for answering. I apologize it has taken me so long to get back in here.
    I just realized that I wrote that I installed from app store originally, but I must correct that statement. I never paid for the app so it must have come preinstalled on my 2011 iMac. I was confused since the update is through the store so I assumed I downloaded it. Sorry for any miscommunication.
    So to be clear, even though I have never remotely administered / accessed my computer and I no longer have ARD on my computer, it is normal to have the client update appear in my App Store. Is that correct?
    I appreciate your assistance.

  • IMovie '06 will not open - says a Quicktime update is required

    iMovie '06 will not open for me. I get a message saying that, "QuickTime update required - iMovie requires QuickTime version 7.5.0 or later, which can be downloaded from www.apple.com/quicktime." And the only button displayed is "Quit".
    The problem is, my QuickTime Player is already at Version 7.5 (149.5) (and beneath that it says 'QuickTime Version 7.5.0 (861)').
    Any idea how I can get iMovie '06 to realise that I do in fact have the up-to-date version of QuickTime?

    Hi Michael and welcome to the forums!
    Did you restart and repair permissions after updating Quicktime?
    Repairing permissions is an important part of regular maintenance, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
    Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
    In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
    This only takes a minute or two.
    Background information here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751
    and here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302672
    If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
    Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

    The boogers are back. Power Supply was not the culprit.
    However I had resolved Issue #2:
    Another Issue is that so far, a few times when starting the computer in the morning the monitor will not come on. Instead, the white power light flickers in sequences of three. The third flicker stays on the longest.
    Resolution:
    According to the monitor manual, the white flickers are a code. For two short flashes followed by a longer one, is indicative of a backlight issue on the display.
    So Apple will need to replace or fix the display for the backlight issue.
    As for the other issue I've noticed a few others have had similar issues with "The Blue Fuzzies", at the threads below:

    To update my original post, hovering the mouse over the affected areas does not produce a trailing effect anymore.
    To temporarily fix either issue involves shutting down the monitor, and unplugging and replugging-in that odd connector on that small white power box that comes with the monitor, (the "DC" cable). (Which originally led me to believe the power supply was at fault.)
    Though the monitor and the computer sits on a solid oak desk, I have recently discovered that when "The Blue Fuzzies" are occuring, a very slight bump on the table increases the amount of Fuzzies, or changes the pattern of which they are running. I discovered this when I sneezed.
    So where I'm at now is querying anyone with a ati1900 card with a similar issue with "The Blue Fuzzies", as the other (white flickers code) will require replacing/fixing the monitor.
    If the x1900 card is stable (none of TBF), I'd rather just get that when the monitor gets replaced.

  • Telling quicktime to stop playing if switched to another tab or browser?

    Hey Everyone
    Ok say i have a movie on a web page which is playing, and the user switches to another tab or browser window, is there anyway to tell quicktime to stop playing if this happens?
    Thanks for any help

    No.
    Unless the browser has that feature.

  • Videos take a long time to open after the last quicktime update

    Hey guys
    Since I've downloaded the latest quicktime update videos are taking a very long time to open. They used to open instantly and now they take about 40 seconds (negligable difference if quicktime is already open or not).
    This is with a Powermac G4 1.25Ghz with 2GB RAM running 10.4.10 and all latest updates.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    I'd suggest tracing system activity when this long runtime issue occurs, so you could know where this time is spent (db access ? etc) ... a plain SM50 call in parallel could do the trick if runtime is long enough !

  • Quicktime update fixes arrange

    when expanding the arrange the playhead didn't stay at the same place.
    i was working and in the meantime updating quicktime, after the restart the problem that is around since logic 8 is fixed.
    now the playhead stays where it belongs.
    great!!

    that is freakin hilarious man,
    actually after running updates on my machine, it shows as a macpro quad core with 3 TB hd space, and I noticed a emergence of Apogee Symphony rack in the corner of my room
    just kiddin with you guys, I hope that you are right, but I doubt that the quicktime update has anything to do with anything.
    cheers

  • How to stop to display the main report page header in the subreport!

    Hello all,
    I have an existed report that display the CR page header on every page of the report. Now I added another subreport into report footer without using link. How do I stop to display the main report page header and display the subreport in the new page with subreport header only? I really appreciate your time to help me out on this issue. Thanks.

    Hi,
    I tried to supress the page header with (onlastrecord and TotalpageCount > 1) condition, but the last page of main report without page header. I still like the page header display on last record, but not on the subreport only. How do I get it? Thanks in advance.

    During update my ATV2 displayed icon to connect to iTunes. Now I have nothing -- can't even get to menu to do restart and ATV2 doesn't show up in iTunes menu to do restart from there. Help!

    The update didn't apply correctly.
    Did you follow the steps exactly in order to restore? disconnect all cables, open iTunes, then connect micro usb

    Make sure to connect directly to computer, not a keyboard port or USB hub. Try a different cable.
