Steely Dan Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Quicktime stopped working and I tried to reinstall it and to patch it and everything else and it didn't work. By reverting to 2.0 It's solved the problem. If anyone else is having this problem that seems to be the fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Here's my advice: Uninstall Firefox and Quicktime and then run something like CCleaner run the cleaner, run the registry cleaner/fixer as well, and fix all problems. (It will offer you an opportunity to back up the Reg before fixing the problems, say yes and save the back up file somewhere.) The, reinstall Firefox 3 and install Quicktime Alternative. Unless you use Quicktime for anything other than playing playing the occasional quicktime file while surfing, it's better to keep that bulky piece of crap off your computer. Same with Real player.

Dante Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I can't stand Quick Time. I hate that it installs with ITunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, it's working fine now and I like 2.0 better anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I'm growing to hate Itunes as well. Problem is I bought a $400 dock/speaker deal that is only for Ipods so I'm kinda locked into it. Eventually I'm going back to mp3 based setup where I call my own shots as far as moving mp3s around and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
