Quicktime Windows 7 64bit folder permission problem

Hi!
I am trying to install quicktime (actually just need iTunes..but then iTunes needs qt), but it fails. There seems to be a problem with the folder C:\Program Files(x86)\QuickTime\ - Quick Time wants to write the file QTTask.exe, but complains that it does not have permission to do so. Same thing happens with \PropertyPanels\PanelHelperBase.qpa
I have tried deleting all Apple programs (in the order suggested in the support forum) and also tried to delete the temp folder. That did not work.
I have tried to manually adjust the permissions of the QuickTime folder - no effect.
I have run the installation file with admin rights and with different compatibility modes to no effect.
I consider myself to be an experienced user - able to solve most problems - but now I am stuck. I need some input / fresh ideas on how to tackle the problem.
This is very annoying as I cannot sync iPhone/iPad/iPod while iTunes is not running - due to the stupid (sorry) idea of only have your device linked to one library.
Please help.
Thanks!

That's consistent with disk/file damage.
Let's first try running a chkdsk over your C drive. There's Windows 7 instructions in the following document. Select both "automatically fix file system errors" and "scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors" or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you choose to go about things). You should be prompted to schedule the scan to run on restart. That sort of scan of the C drive should take a long time ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan:

Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, does an itunes install go through properly this time?

  • File /folder permission problem

    Hi,
    I have a share on server 2012 R2 with FULL ACCESS. Now I have problem to write in it when I mounted the network share on a PC booted with WinPE. Even I mounted the share with Administrator Account.
    Effective permissions and ownership details seems to look fine.
    Have deleted the user and created a new user account , still same problem ,,, isn't it odd? Has someone faced same?
    N.A.Malik

    Hello,
    When you try to write in this folder, did you get any error message?
    I want to confirm the administrator account is a domain accout or local account.
    Personally, I think it is still a permission issue.
    For test, give everyone full confrol for both share permission and NTFS permission.

  • Windows 7 64bit Bridge CS3 problem.

    I just purchased a new PC. I am running Windows 7 64 bit Pro. I have installed Adobe Photoshop CS3. One minor annoyance is that whenever I exit Photoshop it won't simply close. It hangs until it says "not responding" and then if I exit again at that time it does close.
    The BIG problem though is that I can't even open Bridge CS3. I have no idea why or how. I need help on this asap. Without Bridge I'm in trouble.
    Thank you,
    Tom K.

    Did you run CS3 as admin the first time you started it?
    Did you update CS3 to 10.0.1?
    Hope this makes sense:
    You have selected CS3 to run as admin but your not running it (closed): if you try to open bridge by itself with cs3 closed bridge won't open unless you run bridge as admin.
    If CS3 is run as admin and you open bridge from CS3 it will open.
    Ya, i know it is weird but CS4 did the same under windows 7 64 bit for me so I figured this may help you.

  • Icacls Folder Permission Problem

    Hi,
    I am using icacls within a VBScrpt specifically to change permissions to a folder.
    My attempts so far only seems to change the security of only the files within the folder and subfolders, which is only half of what I need.
    I wonder if there is a parameter or anything that I'm missing that will change the security of the subfolders?
    I am using this:
    icacls "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\RKYV" /grant "Users":f /t /q
    Any illumination would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks.

    ... I was expecting to see a tick within the Full Control category and didn't expect to change the Special Permission category (I don't even know what the Special Permissions category is ...
    Hi,
    As Forest has explained, Special Permission refers to a combination of permission (usually deviate from standard) and will become visible when you clicked the
    Advanced button.
    In your case, your command line has treated the folders and files separately. For folders, it grants
    Full Control to This folder only as shown above.
    You have mentioned that you expected a tick within the Full Control category. Yes, it can be achieved by changing the command line as follows:
              icacls "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\RKYV" /grant "Users":(OI)(CI)f /t /q
    where CI = Container Inherit, and OI = Object Inherit.
    Hope that helps. I have learnt this command because you asked :)

  • Why am i unable to sync ipad2 with latest itunes64 on Windows 7 64bit

    Hello community,
    I've used my Iphone 3GS with the latest ITunes64 on Windows 7 64bit with no problems. Sync works beautifully.
    However, when I connect my recently purchased Ipad2, the Ipad is not detected, and hence sync is not possible.
    Why would it fail to connect when my IPhone connects fine? I'm using the supplied hardware that came with the Ipad2 (running 4.3.3) to connect to no avail.
    Your assistance will be much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Joe
    PS: My ITunes installation is under C:\Program Files (x86)\. Should this be a point of concern considering I used the Itunes64 installer, and my computer is 64bit?

    Depending on the application you are printing from, you may need to press the Show Details button in the print dialog to see all of the additional driver menus.
    The image below is for the extended print dialog of TextEdit and for a Canon MP990 printer. The Show Details button is on the bottom of the print dialog and will change to Hide Details when selected. And with the menu changed to Quality & Media, you have paper options and print quality settings.

  • Looking for a way to solve permission problem in windows 7

    one of the biggest problems i have with this windows that even that i'm an administrator and the owner of the computer i always have permission problems folders i get a no access errors with files and folders even thoughe i should have full permisions i belive system restore doesn't work for me because permissions problem and i don't know what to do anymore i'v used uac i'v disable uac i downloaded a registry file to take owernship on files and folders and still problems so what can i do to solve all this problems?
    and to be honest i really don't like the way windows 7 behave with permisions this is my computer and i am an administrator why do i have to fight to access folders like System Volume Information,Recovery,Documents and Settings why do i get the lock icon when i take owenership and i'm on the users list but when i add users everyting is fine?
    10x in advance.:)

    Hello,
    This is by design. You cannot access the folder or files are protected by operation system even if your current user account is Administrator.
    System Volume Information is a hidden and protected system folder that the System Restore tools uses to store it information and restore points.
    In Recovery folder, there are two files: Winre.wim and boot.sdi. With these two files, you are able to boot the system to Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) and do a repair without inserting a Windows 7 installation disc.
    If you want to access the protected folders like “System Volume Information”, use the following method, but I do not recommend you do this. It may cause some potential problems:
    1. Right click the System Volume Information folder and choose Properties.
    2. In Security tab, click Edit and then click Add. Type in “everyone”(without quote) and click Ok.
    3. Then “Everyone“ will be listed under ” Group or user names”, click Everyone, and check “allow” full control option.
    As BurrWalnut said, the “Documents and Settings”, it is a junction. A junction point is also a protected operating system folder that points to another folder. The junction point is an important part of application compatibility and does not contain any data or other files. In Windows Vista and Windows 7, the “Documents and Settings” folder has been replaced with “Users” folder. All of your user profiles are saved in C:\Users\User name folder.

  • Browsers do not see Quicktime in Windows 7 64bit

    I have Quicktime 7.6.6 installed on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. However, none of the browser recognize it. When I go to web page with Quicktime, it asks me to download Quicktime as if it is not installed. I did uninstall and reinstall it, nothing change.
    If anyone know this issue, please advise. Thank you.

    Hello
    I, like all owners of Windows 7 64bit, the inability to properly use QuickTime Player. I work in computer graphics and 3D with Softimage is Windows 64bit. Not being able to start working properly annoy not only professionals but also clients ...
    Browsing through the forum it appears that the problem is not new and that the answer to our problems is totally void ... Therefore you will certainly be pleased to learn that I advise my clients competitors and video formats that the Mac is no longer be welcome in my space.
    If you want to sell this way the Mac, in my environment totally missed it!

  • Lenovo D20, Type 4155-21G With 5x1.5tb Raid 5, Windows 7 64bit install problem.

    H
    Id like to just document a current machine and works and see if any thing is glaringly wrong..
    Above spec machine has an onboard marrvel 66xx raid card, a raid 5 volume has been created, total useable space is around 5.5TB.
    The software in play here is the following..
    Orignal Lenovo recovery disk set, this is Rescue and recovery boot disk 1, then the OS which is Vista 32 Business, the disk label is actual 64bit but its not 64bit its 32bit.
    The machine finally has to leave with Windows 7 64bit ultimate.
    I have looked into the upgrade paths and so on and basicly you need vista 64bit ultimate in theory, certain hacks are possible such as renaming the os level or name via the registery, but this is dirverting from my post.
    Here is what has been done and what has happend.
    20th Jan.
    Start of day.
    Raid 5 volume created.
    Factory recovery completed windows vista business 32bit.
    Attempt to upgrade Windows vista business to Windows 7 ultimate from with in windows, windows 7 alerts this is not a compatable system etc.
    At this stage since the 64bit upgrade is not possible from the known good lenovo state (lenovo vista business factory desktop etc) the second disks in the "Windows 7 32bit + 64bit any time upgrade package was ran.
    The 32bit version of the Windows 7 ultimate was ran, this did complete sucessfully.
    The 64bit version of the windows 7 was attempted once more from with in the newly installed Windows 7 32 bit but again this upgrade route is not supported.
    At this stage a custom install was completed (which means a fresh install which wipes the drive) / fresh install, of the windows 7 64bit any time upgrade disk.
    For some reason the Windows 7 64bit any time upgrade key failed to be accepted.
    At this stage a second engineer repeated all steps completed to verify and on the second go around the FRESH install of Windows 64bit any time upgrade (stand alone install / custom etc) the key worked!..
    This is were it gets interesting.
    Lets recap, we have a D20 with 5x1.5tb sata hard drives in raid 5, all on the onboard marvel raid card.
    Windows 7 64bit has been sucessfully installed, and of course the next step is to install the lenovo system update tool. (version for windows 7, I understand this is fully 64bit compatable..)
    This was completed and pc doctor and one other misc application install, the system requested to restart and then ....
    The raid BIOS of the marvel card reported that the raid had become degraded..!!
    An inspection of the onboard raid information results that the disk 0 of the 5 disks, was no longer assigned to the RAID 5, with teh remaining several disks still "assigned".
    At this stage the only option is to delete the raid five array and recreate it.
    This has been done and the factory recovery process has once again been restarted and an attempt will be made to perform the custom install with hopefully the windows 7 64bit any time upgrade install detecting the previous version although I would say that it would not need to detect anything since this is now longer an upgrade but a custom fresh install.
    Further information.
    There is a System bios update from the 5th of Jan 2010, this has been burnt to cd and will be applyed against the machine shortly.
    We have had some conversation about just how it is that a disk can fatally pop out from the raid five volume like this, was it a coincidence that it coninsided with the power cycle process dirrectly after the system update installation?
    Tommorow a Windows 64bit OEM package will be applied against this machine and since we have the relivant driver file for the onboard raid card (sourced from the drivers and applications lenovo recovery disk set), there should be less of a problem in key acceptance.
    Kind of a werid situation, what looks like a possible hardware problem and a stupid microsoft upgrade qulification problem.
    Is there any thing stupid I have over looked?
    Thanks, sorry for the long post but this is the story in full.
    Note from Moderator:  Fixed formatting issue.

    21st Jan..
    The D20 has sucessfully had vista business factory reinstalled and then Windows 7 64bit installed.
    Dirrectly after the Windows 7 installation and power cycle, one of the five 1.5tb hard drives have dropped out of the raid, visable as "DEGRADED", uppon further inspection via control m, the middle drive (not drive 0 as before) drive 2 (0,1,2,3,4,5) has dropped out and is not marked as assigned, it is marked with no label or free.
    This is high strangeness, it is my understanding that the RAID technologies are transparent to the OS so it should not be in any way the Windows 7 install triggering this, the last occurance was also during a Windows 7 power cycle but dirrectly after the system update tool being installed.
    At this stage it would appear that Windows 7 64-bit used in conjunction with the supplment driver disk marked as (drivers and apps, windows xp vista, windows 7) is not able to complete and remain stable.
    I suspect a possible driver issue but if this was the case surely the windows 7 install would not progress past the first installation point where the driver disks is required to actually use and see the array via the controler.
    I will update this thread with more information as it becomes available.
    Machine delivery eta to customer is tommorow so this is not good.

    No problems about the further questions.
    The term EHCI roughly means "USB 2.0 host controller". So pretty much any modern nVidia chipset will have one of those. So the issue ends up boiling down to whether or not you've got an nVidia chipset, I think.
    I went searching through the HP Support forums, and I found a user-supplied FAQ that suggests that you do have an nVidia chipset. See Daniel's second post in this thread (the one on chipset drivers):
    [Windows7 Upgrade Guide for dv6000/dv9000 models|http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Operating-systems-and-software/Windows7-Upg rade-Guide-for-dv6000-dv9000-models/td-p/179816]
    ... but "suggests" isn't quite the same thing as "confirms".
    I'm thinking it might be worth posting over at the HP Support forums and asking if you have one of the HP models that requires the update for Windows 7 described in the following post. (The update in question is actually the same as the Microsoft hotfix I linked you to earlier.)
    [Driver update for Win7 USB issue on nVidia chipset systems now available|http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Lockups-Freezes-Hangs/Driver-update-for- Win7-USB-issue-on-nVidia-chipset-systems-now/m-p/188193]
    (Not trying to get rid of you here ... I just want to get you on the radar screens of people with a bit more specific knowledge about the chipset on your particular HP model. I figure the HP forums would be a useful place to go for that.)

  • Problems (bugs) with Project Explorer LV8.5.1 Windows Vista 64bit

    Helo all,
    I am using Windows Vista 64bit with all updates and service packs on an ASUS G1 dual core 4gig memory.  After writing code for a while I find that I cannot execute my top level vi from the project explorer.  I can run the vi from outside the project no problem.  If I try to create a new project and load the vi into it the LV hangs and the windows task manager cannot kill either the vi or the new project explorer, I have to reboot the computer to recover.  I have attached the vi.

  • Solution Center problem with HP Office Jet J4550 and windows 7 (64bit)

    Hello All,
    I have a problem. I have the Solution Center and a HP Office Jet J4550 and windows 7 (64bit). When ever I open the solution center, the solution center says " HP office jet J4550 series disconnected" When I open HP document manager, I can access the printer.  Additionally, when I run the HP Print Diagnostic Utility 4.0, it sees the printer, no issues. I can print test pages. No issues. I downloaded the latest driver from the HP site (OJJ4500_Full_13, 299,359KB) Your insight is appreciated.
    Thank you
    Roy B

    I have a similar problem with the J4580 and my new Windows 7 64-bit laptop.  HP Solution Center says that the printer is disconnected.  Furthermore, it can print some documents (short ones), but it was unable to print a 1-page 5MB pdf file.  The printer truncated the page after printing just the top 10%.   The printer is OK with my wife's Windows 7 32-bit laptop.
    I've seen many other people complain about similar problems in this and other forums.  Apparently the driver for J4500 printers is not compatible with Windows 7 64-bit.  Can HP please provide an updated driver or patch?

  • Windows 7 64bit iTunes 11.1.4 Up Next Drag and Drop Problem

    OS: Windows 7 64bit
    iTunes version; 11.1.4
    Problem: In the normal iTunes window dragging and dropping songs in the Up Next menu gives no real-time feedback of items being moved or the list being scrolled. If I attempt to drag and drop then the window updates itself as if it had scrolled, but I get no visual feedback during this process.
    I can confirm that Up Next operates as expected while using the Mini Player (either reduced or expanded), but the main window does not.

    Doublechecking. Do you still get that particular issue if you update to iTunes version 11.1.5.5.

  • Problem installing itunes on windows 8 64bit. Installation gets stuck on Status: (blank) literally blank

    Problem installing itunes on windows 8 64bit. Installation gets stuck on Status: (blank) literally blank. I really need to install this since I have only 1 PC and i just bought the new iPhone 6.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
