Quicktime wont install..help!

My itunes wont work and seen in other threads that this is due to my quicktime not been installed properly. I have tried uninstalling current versions, reinstalling seperately and as with itunes and every way possible but the exe. install file just crashed halfway through and throws up a questionmark balloon? I dont think that the previous versions have uninstalled properly as there are still files showing if I do a file search but its not showing on the install/unistall control panel - please help - I just dont know what to do??

good gracious ... from your other post, i'm assuming that you had one of those strange ones where there were permissions for some accounts missing on the QuickTime keys? (i've seen that also associated with HKey errors on the installs.)
at any rate, i'm glad you're up and running again.

Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATION" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you 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", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC. Now try another QuickTime install. Does it go through properly this time?

Itunes and Quicktime wont install

When I tried to update my iTunes and Quicktime recently, it succesfully downloaded, began installing, and once the progress hit Quicktime, and error showed "an older version of quicktime cannot be removed." Now the issue is, that before this happened, the update had already removed the older version of iTunes. However, it was unable to install the newest version due to this quicktime issue. So here I sit. Help?
-D

once the progress hit Quicktime, and error showed "an older version of quicktime cannot be removed."
Most probably that's an issue with the installation database in the QuickTime.msi file.
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. First we need to hunt down a copy of the utility.
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.)

Quicktime wont install

We purchased two Nano Ipods for Xmas, my older son has an older classic Ipod for which we have an older version of Itunes.
We have tried to down load the new version of Itunes but keeps coming up with an error with Quicktime. The error message is something like 2250. We have deleted and retried, we have tried to download Quicktime by itself but then it just says unable to install dur to error try later.
We are getting frustrated.
Any ideas?

Go here -> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
download and run the MS Installer cleanup utility to clean up QT, then reinstall QT.
Download the QT installer here -> http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktime715forwindows.html

ITunes 7.0.2. wont install because Quicktime wont install

I've been trying to install iTunes 7.0.2 on my computer for WEEKS but the installation always encountered a problem: the programme always stopped just as it was computing Sapce requirements for Quicktime. An error message saying "Invalid drive: U:/" appeared and then "Cannot install QuickTime. ITunes requires Quicktime" or something like that. And then the installation aborted. There isnt a drive U: on my computer and I didn't understand why this was occuring.
My brother had been suffering from a similar problem, whereby installation always failed under the same circumstances only asking for a (valid) network path on another computer of his (it asked for //Computer/My Documents instead of U:) He managed to solve the error by connecting to the network path and re-running the installer.
The solution to my problem was much the same. I got a USB flashdrive, plugged it in an using the Disk Manager
(Start>Settings>Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Computer Management>Disk Manager Right click on the USB disk and select Change Drive letter) created a disk U:
Problem solved.

I'm trying to figure out if this was a problem with my computer or something to do with the iTunes 7.0.2 installer.
My computer met all the system requirements (256RAM, 500MHz processor - I actually installed extra RAM to see if it would solve the problem!) when the problem was occuring. Has anyone else encountered a similar problem?

.Apps files wont install (HELP)

Hi, I download a few apps from the net, go to download folder try to install the app but it performs a flash then dose notting. It happening to all the .app files i download and try to install. Any suggestions please let me know
Thanks You
PS my console message says -
4/02/2014 9:43:00.580 pm Finder[261]: 8837325: Attempting to SIGCONT to pid #2100 failed, with errno=#3, or the process failed to actually start

If it is a .(DOT)APP file you don't need to install it. It is a Stand Alone Application. Just double click on it and it should run, launch, open.
If these .APP files are for iOS (That is the operating system that run on Apple "i" Devices, phone, pad and pod) then they won't work on Mac computers running OS X. Two Totally different Operating Systems.
You'll need to be more specific on what these APPs are.

Creative cloud wont install - help

I have an old pc working well with windows 7 prof and cannot get the exe file for CC to install the app. It starts and then ends with no messages.
Jack DeMember

I am interested in what is going on, not what it could be. The processor is AMD Athlon XP 2600 2.17GHz. It is working fine with a solid state drive and windows 7 prof. If it rejects this processor then there ought to be some message somewhere. There is nothing.

New Laptop , I Tunes wont install

Downloaded intunes and it wont install because quicktime wont install
HELP plz ?

Yeah, you're pointing in the wrong direction when you blame the issue on your iPod. Reference the KB article mentioned above, http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302335 and then check your windows user settings in the Windows Control Panel and then ensure that you are an Administrator of the computer. If not, login as one and uninstall/reinstall.
If that fails, check to ensure that the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) service is running by typing "services.msc" (without quotes) in the Run menu (Start/Run/services.msc).
Lastly, try running the iTunes installer file after you have disconnected from the internet (physically un-plug the network cable from your computer if you're on DSL/Cable/LAN) then disabled your anti-virus software.
If these steps work for you, please let us know here on the forums. If not, we'll still try, but remember, this is an Apple forum, so to expect a lot of Windows answers may be like going to your barber for advice about your overbite.
Hope this helps.
