Safari and QTCF.dll - Not fatal but really annoying

Hello everyone. I have Safari + QuickTime + iTunes installed on my Windows 7 x64 box since a long time, but only recently I've found some problems...
Every time I open Safari (5.0.2) its only matter of seconds after an alert pops up saying that QTCF.dll isn't found and that it won't allow the execution of Safari. However, after I dismiss that popup, Safari continues working... Until about an hour or two later shows the same popup. It also happens if I close and reopen Safari.
As I've said, isn't fatal, but its really annoying having to close that popup every time.
I've found that file, and is on QuickTime folder. Moved it to both system32 and sysWOW64 and still shows that popup. Also I've read something about that dll where the answers were "reinstall QuickTime". Well... I've tried to uninstall it to install it again, but it throws me an error about some file that couldn't be removed (I think is that QTCF.dll file).
What do you think? DLL ****? Registry corruption? Thanks in advance
I also have a problem with Top Sites after doing a clean install of Safari 5. It always shows me the same sites, it doesn't change constantly (and those sites aren't pinned). Also, if I delete those sites from it, it won't add any new one. Any ideas?

Moved it to both system32 and sysWOW64 and still shows that popup.
Best to move it out of there. Having an old version in there tends to cause a different kind of startup error for iTunes and QuickTime (if the version of QuickTime proper on the PC is updated).
By any chance, have you ever had a version of QuickTime Lite or QuickTime Alternative installed on the PC? Last time I checked, they used to install a copy of QTCF.dll to the system32 directory (on 32-bit systems). Since they use the QuickTime registry entries, your Registry may currently be looking in the wrong place for the QTCF.dll.
Well... I've tried to uninstall it to install it again, but it throws me an error about some file that couldn't be removed (I think is that QTCF.dll file).
Could you try another uninstall and post back with the full filename and filepath of that file, please? (I'd like to see where your system thinks your QTCF.dll is installed just at the moment.)

Audition CS 5.5 new computer QTCF.DLL not found but its there

I have Adobe Audition CS 5.5 and the latest Quicktime installed on both my old Windows 7 laptop and the new Windows 8.1 laptop that I'm working on setting up right now.
On the old laptop I am able to open an MP4 video file (downloaded from youtube) and get the audio.
On the new laptop I get a message that QTCF.dll is not installed and it won't let me open audio from the mp4 file.
I used Winmerge to compare the various program files directories of both Audition and Quicktime and they are identical! And the directory that has QTCF.dll is on the PATH.
So why am I getting this error and how do I fix it?

Hi srothkin,
It sounds like there may be an issue with the installation of iTunes and it's related software. Try running through the removal and reinstallation steps in the article linked below on your new Windows 8 laptop.

Safari and iTunes will not open on my Macbook Air after Migration Assistant

I did the Migration Assistant via wireless (from Macbook Pro TO Macbook Air) last night and it did work. However, my Safari and iTunes will not open on my Macbook Air now. The error messages are as follows:
Safari: "Safari quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple."
- I tried reopening the app, restarting, and shutting down the computer. Nothing has worked.
iTunes: "The file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. Would you like to download iTunes now?"
- I clicked "Download iTunes" but then another message comes up that all my software is up to date.
Any help is very appreciated.

Safari and Mail will not open.

Just opened Pwer Mac G4 with 10.4.11 but Safari and Mail will not open. Have all software updates. Firefox open and browses. What could be wrong?

Hi-
Try booting in Safe mode and see if the applications work there.
Hold Shift while starting to boot to Safe mode.
If things work, reboot normally and see if the issue is resolved.
If not, download and install the 10.4.11 Combo Update and install (again is not a problem).
This should correct any issues due to absent files.

Both Safari and Firefox will not load webpage

This is an issue in both Safari and Firefox (I use Firefox as my default, but since it's happening in Safari too, I figured I could post the problem here). I frequently visit Crate & Barrel's website and cb2.com, and as of recent I have not been able to load the site. I've tried on both my eMac (Safari and Firefox) and on my new iMac. I was able to load the page on a windows computer in my house. I'm not sure if I ever viewed their website on my iMac since it's new as of last month. On the eMac I visited the site often. Why all of the sudden would I not be able to load the website? Any help is greatly appreciated!

You have to love when Customer Service reps don't actually read your message:
To Crate & Barrel:
"I recently have not been able to access the Crate&Barrel
website on either my Apple eMac or my new iMac. However, I can access
the site on a Windows computer. I am using Firefox, so it can't be an
issue with the browser. I try to access the site using Safari and that
does not work either. I used to visit the site often on my eMac and
never had any issues loading the page. Any ideas as to what the problem
may be? And why all of the sudden? Any help is appreciated."
Crate & Barrel's Response:

Are you serious? Did I not mention that I was using both Safari and Firefox?

Safari and Firefox do not open search engines

I have an IMac 8.1, with OS 10.5.8. Recently, our internet browser programs (safari and firefox) will not open any search engine (google, bing or yahoo). However, I am able to navigate to web-sites that I manually type in (e.g., www.cnn.com). Does anyone know what the cause, and fix, to this issue? Also, this behavior did coincide with a recent update to our Intego Antivirus software, but I think this is unrelated.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,

Maybe not. Most, if not almost all, anti-virus software interferes with OS X and is not required.
Try installing Glims:
If you want to fix your Google search to a specific Google location, I recommend that you download and install the free plug-in Glims:
http://www.machangout.com/
which not only does that but much more equally useful stuff! Such as enabling Safari to run full-screen, and more.)
(It adds items to Safari Preferences).
Not only does it already list a number of search engines and regions, but you can also add any other search engine not already listed in Glims by using the method described here:
http://www.machangout.com/tutorials/addsearchengine
Just enter the name you give the search engine in the name field, and the URL for it in the Query URL field.

The website may not run properly on a mobile device. You can try another browser (search the App Store) but it may be hard-coded into the website itself.

I am using chat-r wireless and facetime is not working but when i put rogers fido or any other carrier sim in it work. Anyone know what the problem?

I'm guessing it's a compatibility problem similar to that that T-Mobile in the US has. I'm not familiar with chat-r wireless, but I'm guessing it's not a supported carrier for the iPhone. If they can't tell you how to fix it, I'm guessing it's just plain not going to work.

Hey kristiac,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, you have no service on the iPhone. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

I have installed LR 6 for windows (win7) and LR will not start but hangs up

I have installed LR 6 for windows (win7) and LR will not start but hangs up. I have uninstalled the software and re-installed it, Tried to open it as Administrator and it still hangs up with the Adobe banner (the picture) being displayed. Nothing happens. When I click on anything I get the message that Lightroom is not responding. I have asked to have a new catalog created for Lightroom 6............Please help.
Thank you. Leo

hbereth,,
It is Ideal to install Creative Cloud app , if you are using Adobe apps.
Creative Cloud is nothing but an updated version of Adobe Application manager. Adobe Application Manager is required for different purposes like Activation, Update.process and installation processes.etc
Adobe application manager must be up to date , that brings to Creative Cloud application which is the updated version .
No need to Sign in and all , just keep it install, if you are not okay with installing Creative Cloud app. it's okay , you can still have Adobe Application Manager only.
