QTKitServer Safari Web Content

These hangs constantly return and they DO have an impact on the machine. The fan runs like nuts and Safari becomes like molasses. Going into the monitor every other hour and delete the crashed processes does not look Apple-like to me. It is more of an XP-feeling...

I also have a hard time understanding that there is nothing to be found from Apple as to how and when this is going to be fixed.

So far, Mavericks runs like a charm. However, this is starting to ge annoying.

>> I wonder if people with a clean install have the same bug?

Yes, although it doesn't seem to cause any noticeable problem here.

Yes, I tried to did clean install and I had this problem. When I saw this bug, I did restore from backup on Mavericks over 10.8.5

If this is any help I have been having look in my console and discovered this:

06/11/2013 17:43:33.043 com.apple.launchd[1]: (com.apple.qtkitserver[349]) Could not terminate job: 3: No such process

I too have been having the same problem. Qutting safari cleared the error out of the activity monitor.

Hurry Up Apple with 10.9.1! Please! 🙂

Carolyn, I trashed DefaultBrowser.plugin under /Library/Internet Plug-ins to get rid of my QTKitServer crash problem, too. However, deleting this file won't cause any damage will it? I already deleted it, and everything seems to be running fine, but if I need to get it back, can I get it back, and where should I go to get it? Sorry! I'm just paranoid. I know you have a lot of points on this forum. Just worried you might not know what you're talking about and yet I still ended up following your advice. 🙂

I read that mess, Dezmond! I've been using Apple products since the 1980s. I've always been pleased. I can't tell you how many Apple computers I've owned, so Apple needs to fix this QtKitServer Safari Web Content problem in Mavericks. This is not Apple-like at all. I hope they have a 10.9.1 update for Mavericks soon. Other than this problem, I love Mavericks. It runs fine for me.
