Hey,

I'm not sure if this kind of post is allowed here, but nobody at my windows tech forum has any solutions.

I installed the new version of Quicktime 7 (for Windows XP) from Apple's website so I could view some movies a friend of mine made on his powerbook featuring OS X's capabilities. When done I began surfing the web and realized that nothing else on the internet supported it for some reason. I then uninstalled it and installed 6.5 from the website. Now whenever I open firefox I get an error box which says I lack quicktime plug - extensions which can be found in quicktime version 5. It then redirects me to apple.com/quicktime if I click ok. What should I do? I have reinstalled both quicktime and firefox, but nothing seems to work. I did not delete any cache files in firefox for uninstalling / installing it though, so could that be the problem?

Thank you, and again if this kind of post is not allowed then please delete it.

Just kidding. Of course your post is *allowed* here. Whether you'll get any helpful responses is a different story. Good luck.

Those were the magic words .... [sorry, I've no idea, don't use Firefox on Macs or Windows now]

I experienced this on my work PC. Firefox/QuickTime went goony. Nothing would work to get it back to normal. It's still that way because the giant brains in our IT department said that re-installing Windows might fix the problem. I'm not, nor should I have to, re-install Windows because a plug-in got borked.

So what I'm saying is, I can't help you. I guess just try deleting everything associated with Firefox and QuickTime and then try re-installing them.

I fixed it. I reinstalled both firefox and quicktime and emptied firefox's cache and everything is working again. I liked the responses.

That was an amazingly dumb problem.

Glad to hear it worked out.
