Hi betaphase,


Mount the 10.8.5 DMG and open the OSXUpdCombo10.8.5.pkg using Pacifist.


Drill down to


Contents of OSXUpdCombo10.8.5.pkg

Contents of manual

Contents of OSXUpdCombo.10.8.5.pkg

System

Library

Frameworks


Select QTKit.framework and QuickTime.framework, click Install and follow the prompts.


You may need to rename the existing QTKit.framework and QuickTime.framework before you do the above.


Hope this helps.


Alvin
