I don’t know about anyone else, but ever since I updated to the latest version of iTunes I’ve been having a really wonky Quicktime experience. It started out with Firefox crashes, but pretty soon if I tried to view a movie in the standalone player, it would freeze if you tried to pause/play or do a video scrub.
Through trial and error the following fix worked for me (Windows XP, SP2).
- • Install the latest version of iTunes
- • Uninstall just Quicktime
- • Download the Quicktime 7.0.3 player (7.04 is buggy, 7.0.2 isn’t compatible with the newest iTunes).
So for now iTunes is happy and Quicktime isn’t crashing.
This is why you should just listen to vinyl, forget all this crazy technology nonsense.
Thank you sooooo much for this advice!! I have spent days trying to sort out this problem and followed many procedures advised on quicktime, itunes, apple websites etc and finally I found your post and it works! I am so grateful – it was driving me nuts!
Many thanks
