QuickTime Player

I have Catalina. QuickTime Player was working, now it crashes and won't open at all. It asks if I want ignore, report, or reopen. I have tried them all. How do I fix this? Thanks!

iMac 27", macOS 10.15

Quicktime won't open in Catalina I have QuickTime 10.5 running on a Mac Mini with Catalina. When I try to open it it immediately crashes, triggering a crash report. The crash report mentions EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV) and a million other things, none of which I understand. Everything else seems to be working normally. The Activity Monitor doesn't register any opening of QuickTime before it crashes.

quicktime 10.5 catalina does not launch QuickTime 10.5 Catalina will not launch on iMac (Late 2013 21.5 in). The file blinks as if it's opening, but does nothing. Then an error message: QuickTime Player quit unexpectedly.

Quicktime hangs when playing any video I have recently encountered a problem with Quicktime running under OSX 10.14.6. I hangs with any video file (MOV, MP4) including FCPX output and other sources. The only option is to force quit. Luckily I have always retained the superior Quicktime 7 app. Has anyone else encountered this problem and is there any fix. I am unable to upgrade to Catalina as I have critical apps which are not supported on 64bit.
