Quicktime won't work...
 

So, when I went to see the X3 trailer at SpikedHumor, it showed the little Quicktime thing torn in half. I tried a few more videos, and none of them worked either. I didn't know how to fix anything that would be wrong with Quicktime itself, so I decided to just reinstall it.

So I did. But I had to install iTunes with it. I uninstalled that as soon I was done.

I tried the video again, and now I get the Quicktime Q with a ? in it.

Help?

Ha, don't install the quicktime with iTunes, es crap. I just snagged a copy of the program of torrentspy, it runs great now. I had the same problem as you.

I think it's SpikedHumor's fault because it didn't work on our PC either. Just download it directly from the link they provide right below:

that doesnt make a difference, its fine for if you dont want to install itunes with it, but unless that quicktime is a older version then its the same quicktime.
the problem is plugin related, not the program itself.


altho on that note, they really should offer quicktime as a seperate download for thoes who dont want itunes with it.

Re: Quicktime won't work...
 

No, its not just SpikedHumor. Nothing that uses Quicktime is working... Not even just videos... The big...things on IGN's frontpages all are showing the Q symbol... :(

So, uh, does anybody know how to fix it...?

you dont give us the chance to help, you keep walking away and shrugging like you dont even care.

:p

Should IGN be showing those? I remember when Flash was being told to open in Quicktime instead of Flash Player and for all flash animations the broken Quicktime would arrise.

Doesn't SpikedHumor use Flash to display their videos?

Wha!?!? iTunes is the best program in the world, what are you talking about.

Re: Quicktime won't work...
 

I didn't want iTunes for the longest time so I held off on updating quicktime, but upon gettiing my Mac I learned that iTunes is fantastic. You should be getting it anyways, it really is the best program for music out there.

Re: Quicktime won't work...
 

i have a feeling he was joking about that. :p

but i like itunes, it is a usefull program to have, a lot of nice feature, but not the best program for music out there. its a pretty bad one for encoding music, it only does a very basic mp3 or thier aac format, which honestly, pretty much the same as mp3, just cant use it with as many things as mp3's can.


But i agree for what it gives you, most people would be better off having it on thier pc then without.

but for the original comment, i really wish they'd offer both thoes as seperate downloads.

Me have no ipod, me more than content with no itunes

That's the main reason I torrented quicktime, I wanted to get it seperate from itunes.

So, it works on Internet Explorer, but not FireFox O_o

Re: Quicktime won't work...
 

Yeah, for all the YouTube, SpikedHumor, etc. links, I always have to view them in IE. It never bothered me enough to ask anyone how to make that stuff viewable in Firefox.
