(Software Update) The update "QuickTime can't be saved.

I have gotten the following failure repeatedly on every attempt (about 5x) of QT 7.5 update. I have successfully used Software Update to get to OS X 10.5.4 but the QT 7.5 update has not succeeded.
The Software Update status window says' Downloading 1 item Expanding and verifying QuickTime...'
The error message is 'The update "QuickTime" can't be Saved. Software Update could not expand the package correctly.'
Based on the QT discussion board i am wondering if it is even a good idea to get this 7.5. However the iTunes 7.7 says that it requires QT 7.5. I am at iTunes 7.7 now. The reason is I read that I need to be on 10.5.4 OSX and iTunes 7.7 before downloading iPhone OS 2.0.
thanks

I was using Software Update, which is supposed to know the correct version. Once, I did try to get the Leopard version off the downloads web page and the disk failed to mount. After your reply I tried again from the downloads page and this time it worked.
So problem solved, but I have no clue why...I had just rebooted... but I had rebooted before without it helping. It seems random chance combined with enough reboots did the trick.
Thanks for your help.

    Hello Bricky2013,
    The following article has some useful tips that can help stabilize your iPhone.
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

    After the update the new version can not determine downloads folder. In the eyes determine folder, however downlload files go in C / documets and settings even though I chose a different folder

    hello, there's a general regression in firefox 27 that won't allow files to download directly into a root drive. please try to create a subfolder (like ''D:\Downloads'') and set this as default location for downloads...

    Hi pholewinski!
    I have a couple of articles for you here that I believe will help you with this issue. The first is an article on advanced troubleshooting, and it can be found here:
    iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3297
    If following that article's steps doesn't take care of the issue, you can try the things listed in this article, which is about permissions issues in iTunes:

  • HT5654 Im clicking help and checking for updates, the updates come up so I click to download it and nothing happens, help me?

    Ive clicked on help to check for updates, the update I needed came up so I clicked update and nothing happened, what do I do?

    Going by your profile your Mac has v10.5.8 installed. That is the most recent version available for Leopard.
    You may be able to upgrade to v10.6 Snow Leopard >  Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard - Technical Specifications
    Snow Leopard is available for purchase from the Apple online store > Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.)
    With Snow Leopard installed, iTunes would be updated for you.

  • I have an upgrade to the Master Collection CS5 from Production Studio premium and after reinstalling the software all the updates fail.

    "There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later." In the past I had to contact Adobe because CS5 had a problem with the upgrade even though it was legal and had to press a few keys and enter a special code generated at Adobe.

  • Unstable softwares after the update to OSX 10.6.6

    Hello,
    I just uptated my OS X to 10.6.6. Trying to use my basic softwares is now very inconvenient. Safari, iTunes and firefox are subject to constant freezes, other softwares are slow.
    I don't know if it is the update's fault, but the timeframe coincides. The freezes occur so often that I have to post this from my iPhone.
    Please help

    I agree, this update better be quickly usurped by a much better one. My new laptop has not been anything near acceptable like the 2006 MacBook Pro. I'm actually booking it in for the Geniuses to make it right because I am entitled to it for the large sums of money it costs to be in the Mac club and have nice shiny things.
    I have two theories - either Snow Leopard was released way too early or my machine came with a rotten install. Either way, I want it "New like the day it came out of the box please" - total wipe, total reinstall of everything I have paid for. Nothing more, nothing less.
    Maybe then it will be like those utopian days of trouble free Mac I remember. Here's hoping.

  • I can't back up my phone, they ask me to delete the back up, but I don't want to because I lost everything after updating the iTunes, How can I get back the back up?

    Everytime I try backing up my phone, it says there's something wrong and wants me to delete the back up...But I don't want to delte the back up because I just lost everything after updating the iTunes, Is there any way I could get back everything from the back up?

    Thank you for answering my question. If I reinstall itune, is it mean that I need to install music, apps, video...everything in itune again? also intall everything in my iphone again?

  • Intune does not update the "Updates were installed" line on WU local screen

    On the main splash screen of WU, the Updates were installed line only changes when WU is run locally.  Updates via Intune do not register on this line item.  Very confusing and if you visit this screen with a client present, they might think that
    their computers are not being updated.
    Any chance this can be fixed?

    Yes, I know this is an old post, but I’m trying to clean them up. Did you solve this problem, if so what was the solution?
    For suggestions like this, I would post them to the MS Connect site. This way, someone form the Intune team will look at it and do something about it. Posting it here will NOT anything fixed.

  • Recently updated MBP and Apple Configurator. Since updating the Update iOS option for Apple Configurator forces me to update the iOS. Thoughts?

    I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)
    Processor: 2.3 Ghz Intel Core i7
    Memory: 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics: Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB
    OS: OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.1
    Apple Configurator
    Version 1.7.1 (550)
    Since upgrading both the OS and Apple Configurator I can no longer select the option to not update the iOS when I prepare a device. It is currently selected as When update is available. Also the option appears to be grayed out. Any thoughts?

    Google maps is now available in the app store and the carrier update that your refering to was for cell data usage while on wifi. It is perfectly fine to do the update. No issues that i had from that update.

  • Since the update, the update page in the app store is blank.

    Since the update to iOS6.1.1, the update page in the app store is blank and won't load.
    There is the symbol for updates to run, though.

    And weeks later, March 2nd, this is still a problem. Why hasn't Apple fixed this yet?

  • Sony Xperia T: After updating the browser, I can not open it

    Hi, i just updated my firefox in my Xperia T phone (Android version 4.3), it crashes and not able to open up the browser.
    When I tab on Firefox icon, this message appears:
    "Unfortunately, Firefox has stopped.
    press OK"
    Can you help me with this?

    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    The Firefox cache temporarily stores images, scripts, and other parts of websites while you are browsing. <br>
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies, do the following:
    #Tap the menu icon located at the top right corner. This is the icon with 3 bars. On older Android devices you'll have to press the hardware menu key and then tap More.
    #Tap '''Settings'''.
    #After that, you will be taken to the settings screen. In the settings screen, look under the section '''''Privacy & Security''''' and select '''Clear private data'''.
    #You will then be taken to a list of what can be cleared. Select the following 2 for deletion:
    #*Cookies & active logins
    #*Cache
    #After those have been selected, tap the '''Clear data''' button to actually clear the cache and cookies.
