Quicktime\firefox problem!!! Help!

Geminiwave · Nov 29, 2004, 10:35 PM

thats what i get now since upgrading to the new quicktime. I cant seem to fix it. I tried installing the old quicktime. No good. I tried installing quicktime-alternative. no good. I tried updating flash player. no good. I tried messing with the QT settings. No good. I cant see Firefox being the problem here since it USE to work. But I dunno.

can anyone help me please?

edit: btw that pic you see is what I see on every flash clip save for the one on the top page of DH. It is also in about half of the forum pics but not all. I've also noticed that since updating QT, Firefox takes up about twice the amount of system memory now, which REALLY sucks and anything with a picture loads through quicktime(which is alot slower).

upgrade your plugins....you probably have flash player 6 nd quicktime 6.4(6.5 is out now i think)

as I said...I just updated the plugins. Quicktime and flash player. Then I tried going back to the older ones that always worked flawlessly...same problem...so I upgraded AGAIN to be all the way up to date.

this is where i am now.

I even tried reinstalling firefox and starting from scratch with the new updated plugins. no good.

k-lite should do it - or just get quicktime alternative

Geminiwave · Nov 30, 2004, 05:38 AM

I tried that. Also said that in my post. Used quicktime alternative.

IT didnt work. UHHHGGGGGARRAHDFHSADHSADSA I'm about to throw this monitor through the window.

hahah okay not really.

The point is that I'm so mad at Apple right now for making my computer fubared.

pr0digal jenius · Nov 30, 2004, 05:58 PM

it's not all apple...it's probably apple and microsoft secretly duking it out inside your machine

but on a more serious note...I don't know what to tell you short of to format and pray at this point

Geminiwave · Nov 30, 2004, 10:07 PM

Blahhhhhhhh format no good. I hate that sollution.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I'll have to think of something to fix this.

hmm, that top bit on newgrounds should be flash, try redownloading shockwave flash, failing that check your file associations for .swf files

Geminiwave · Nov 30, 2004, 10:34 PM

Already did. For some reason QT keeps taking this over. I even went into the settings and removed QT from managing flash programs...no good.

HOWEVER I finally fixed the problem(sortof).

I deleted quicktime completely and now all webpages work! HOORAYYYYY!!! Course I dont have quicktime now. We'll see how far I get without it.

well i personally never use quicktime, i think its utter rubbish, but the QT-alternative is just a plugin for media player classic, so that shouldnt take anything over
