How can I reinstall Quicktime X in Lion?
OK, to make a long story short, I had a new audio problem in the Quicktime X Player after installing Lion (that I oddly enough didn't have in QuickLook, QuickTime Player 7, or VLC), and I assumed a reinstallation was in order (because I also assumed I had mucked something up by trashing some "orphan" files with TrashMe). I thought I couldn't reinstall Quicktime X Player from the Lion installation package without another two-hour-plus download, so I reinstalled it from my Snow Leopard installation disc using Pacifist naively assuming Software Update would bring me back up to date. Well, that didn't work, and now I have a copy of Quicktime X Player that won't run on Lion. I tried redownloading the Lion installation package and reinstalling the correct version of Quicktime X Player with Pacifist again, but Pacifist can't handle Lion's installation package (it crashes when you try to install or extract anything). Well, I don't have a backup, so that's not an option, and I don't have any external devices large enough to back up my files and applications, so a clean install with Lion Recovery isn't an attractive option either. Is there any way I can install Quicktime X Player on my computer again without wipping my hard drive? Is it safe to let the original Lion intallation process I downloaded from the app store run again? Will it simply replace the relevant existing files no-harm-no-foul, or will I just further muck things up?
