System extension v.5 required ?
I updated my quicktime but when I try to use it it gives a pop up that says\I need a quicktime system extension version 5 or higher and gives me the www.apple.com/quicktime site to get it but can't figure out what I need or how to install it
HELP
Does this happen when opening QT, or while surfing websites? What version of QT was on the computer before updating and what version did it update to?

Error Message: Plug in requires system extension
In the last few days, When I try to access my web site, http://www.stephiebaer.com, using the Mozilla Firefox browser,I get this message:
Quick time Plugin requires the Quicktime system extension version 5 or later. Quicktime is available from http://www.apple.com/quicktime.
the sounds which are coded into the site do not play. I have twice downloaded and installed Quicktime 7 from this site, but the problem persists.
This problem does not occur, when I use Internet Explorer.Please help!Your page code has some errors (and some outdated code).
You've failed to close the embed tag (</embed) and not many browsers use the bgsound code any longer.
You've also failed to set height and width (minimum 2X2 pixels even when hidden).

I received this error message: The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/ACard6280ATA.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling ... . What is this about? What is ACard6280ATA.kext?
I'm still with you, just having a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that you reinstalled OS X, which is like shooting a mosquito with a cruise missile, yet the problem remains.
Here is the KB article for your review: Reinstalling Mac OS X
Admittedly there is not much to it, but it should have eradicated the problem.
I would guess that the 17 "hp_" messages have something to do with Hewlett-Packard and in fact I do use an HP printer with the computer. I uninstalled the printer software and reinstalled it. The printer seems to work fine, but the kernel extension error messages still keep appearing. I'm inclined just to delete these 17 kernel extensions and then, if the printer doesn't work correctly, unintall and reinstall the printer software again. Sound sensible?
It certainly does. The only thing I can think of is that the OS reinstallation did not recognize those kernel extensions and left them untouched, AND the HP uninstaller did not remove them, AND the HP installer did not perform correctly. Having suffered through several HP botched software attempts I tend to believe that remains a posssibility.
If you are so inclined, I would remove the troublesome .kext files as you say, then reboot. Be prepared for the printer to stop working, but once you remove them try the printer again anyway. The vast majority of printers do not require any specific downloads since their drivers are already built into OS X.
As a last resort try reinstalling OS X again (I know...) and run Software Update to bring everything up to date. Apple released some new printer drivers a few weeks ago.
Finally, if this doesn't work post the same question as a new topic since I am out of ideas. A new topic will get more attention than unresolved questions with responses. -
Quick time system extension needed???
daily error message
QuickTime plug-in requires QuickTime System extension version 5 or later
Couple months ago upgraded to QT7 began getting error message
Yes,many times I deleted and reinstalled QT, then was told if I loaded Itunes it would correct problem.
It did not! Don't know if I truly have a problem or an error message than won't quit.
Any ideas would be appreciated. I am using xp #3 os. thxWhen I start Encore I always receive a warning that I do not have Quicktime installed
Since I do not use QT in any way, I ignore the warning and Encore works just fine
I also do not use menus from AE, so there MAY be something to look at
Does Encore work properly if you use one of the built-in menus? -

HP Laser Printer message saying "System Extension Cannot Be Used"
I am trying to install a laserjet printer but while it was installing, a message came up which read, "'System Extension Cannot Be Used' The system extension, "/System/Library/Extensions/AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext' was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update." We tried the printer out and it seems to work, however, the scanner does not work.
When I got this Mac Book Pro, 4 or 5 years ago, I had a HP inkjet printer which I can never use the scanning feature because it did not work. I don't remember what the error message was, but it never worked when I tried to use it. I wonder if the problems with scanning have to do with this particular file that is supposedly installed wrongly.
We tested the printer out and it worked fine. But no scanning. It can't find the scanner.
My computer is Mac OS X - 10.6.8. The printer is HP Laserjet Pro 200 color MFP.
Anyone have any idea what I should do to fix this error? Thanks.Open the Script Editor in the /Applications/AppleScript/ folder, copy and paste the entire following line into it, and press the Run button:
do shell script "chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext" with administrator privileges
If it doesn’t work, choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, provide /System/Library/Extensions/ as the path, throw the AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext item away, and reinstall iTunes.

System extension cannot be used --can anyone help ?
so i spotted that the system library as well as the home library had permissions blocked for the administrator, so i unlocked all enclosed items permissions.
i already had issues being brought to senior advisor attention over 1,5 years now, about hangs and freezes. mostly hangs.
no one so far has been able to fix them.
well now spotting these warnings, after i allowed all permissions inside both libraries, have warnings show up.
i gather these are not prepperly installed softwares, but i cant figure out what softwares they could be, so i can take care of it.
so 4 warnings shows up :
System extension cannot be used

In Get Info, they should be
system read & write
wheel read Only
everyone read only
The posix permissions, owner, and group should be
rwxr-xr-x root wheel
with ACE "group:everyone deny delete"
You may be able to recover by repairing permissions in Disk Utility, but you may have to reinstall the OS. -

Is there an jdev ARCS (appl. revision control system) extension available ?
Is there an ARCS ( application revision control system ) extension available for Jdeveloper ?
Googling took me to OAF developer guide which said -
"With the ARCS (Applications Revision Control System) Extension for JDeveloper, you can perform most
source control tasks without leaving JDeveloper. For additional information about enabling and using this tool,
see the E-Business Suite Application Development Services ARCS Extension for JDeveloper web page."
Can someone point me where to look for this page ? ( I am in Oracle Intranet, so it is accessible for me even if it is an internal page )
ThanksHi,
source code control is through Subversion (recommended). For more read up about Team Productivity Center - http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/tpc/overview/index.html

It appears as a window with the following text, "System extension cannot be used. The system extension “/Library/Frameworks/PrivateTunnel.framework/Versions/Current/Extensions/tap.ke xt” was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update."
I close it by clicking "Ok", and it doesn't seem to affect the system performance in any way, but it's annoying knowing that it's there. The problem is quite old, and has persisted through several OSX updates.hello,
I have the same problem. does anyone have any ideas on what's going on and or how to fix it.
Thanks!!

I keep getting an error message re: System Extensions
Almost every time that I run Software Update or when Norton runs its automatically scheduled scan, I keep getting an error message saying, "System extension cannot be used. The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/IomegaSAM.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update." I've also been having problems with Safari, in that when I've had a browser window open for a while and use it to go to different websites, etc., after I've gone to 2 or 3 websites it will then act like it's "stuck" and it won't do anything else until I close the window, quit out of Safari, and start it up again. Then it will be fine and work for a while, until it does the same thing...again.
Are these items somehow related, and how do I fix this?Hello Valerie Anderson,

I have had my MBP for some time now and the other day it went into a kernel panic and after having to go through all the processes to recover it including restoring from the time capsule so that it doesn't take over 10 mins to start up an error message came up saying;
"*System extension cannot be used*"
"the system extension '/System/Library/Extensions/IO80211Family.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleAirPortBrc m4311.kext' was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update"
Now i cant use my airport card at all, it says that there is no airport card installed and I have spent hours on the phone to apple, done the option + command + r + p thing and had to restore my whole system off my TC with the backup disks and all.
Plz plz plz plz help, i just want it back the way it was, this is so annoying
Message was edited by: TBlankI had the same problem. It happened to me after I updated to 10.5.6. I didn't notice the problem until I rebooted a few days later. I reinstalled the system from disk and then realized that even though it took almost an hour it didn't really install anything. So I deleted the whole /System/Library/Extensions/IO80211Family.kext and reinstalled the system again. This time it worked
