Can't install Quicktime 7: ul_catalog.98cb24ad_52fb_db5f_ff1f_c8b3b9a1e18e not found in quicktime.cab?

Took a few days but I found the solution!!

Sony Vegas now allows files like .mov after this fix!

What i did on windows 10

I Downloaded Latest Version from File Hippo (QuickTime Player 7.79.80.95)

The file will be called something like this "quicktimeinstaller.exe"

make a new folder called QuickTime

put the file quicktimeinstaller.exe into QuickTime Folder

Create a text document

right click > New > Text Document

2. Rename the text document making it a batch file

"New Text Document.txt" >> "fix.bat" >> Click Yes for changing the extension

(you may need to enable view known file extensions. To do this push Win Key, type folder options and push enter.

Click "View" tab at the top > make sure "Hide Extensions For Known File Types" is NOT Checked. Click OK)

3. Right click the file "fix.bat" > select edit

4. Copy Paste this into fix.bat (Name of the file and what you put into the batch file must match)

quicktimeinstaller.exe /extract

5. Save and close fix.bat

6. Run fix.bat by double clicking

You now have 4 new files that were extracted from the installer

AppleApplicationSupport.msi

AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi

Quicktime.msi

QuickTimeInstallerAdmin.exe

This is what I did with these new files and Quicktime installed properly

Install > AppleApplicationSupport.msi > Click Finish

Install > AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi > Click Finish

Install > Quicktime.msi > Click Finish

Ignore > QuickTimeInstallerAdmin.exe

After that was done I started QuickTime to see it was working then closed it.

I restarted Sony Vegas and everything loads into Vegas perfectly

you may need to restart your computer.

I used "QuickTime Player 7.79.80.95" From File Hippo

Just solved the problem for me: The latest version of QT is not compatible with Win8. So I was told by one of my company technicians to use the win7-modus in win8 to install the exe-file. Installation with no problems. :-)

I'm having this trouble on 64-bit Windows7. Any other suggestions out there?

I used a QT 7.74 installer I had downloaded in Jan2014 and that worked fine.

This only happens when I try to hide the UI for me. Elsewhere on the internet I've found that people get this problem when trying to use the compressed MSI file inside the EXE in a batch file (in order to distribute via GPO). The problem occurs for them when they order QuickTime.msi before the AppleApplicationSupport.msi. I tried passing \qn to the EXE and it does pass this onto the MSI but unfortunately the EXE too makes this mistake and initially runs QuickTime.msi, so I get the same failure. The 'normal'/UI case works for me. In my case I think I'll just show the users the UI but it's a shame I can't do it this way without running a batch.

I've been struggling with this too, but I think I've cracked it, thanks to the clues in the last post about the order of installation, with this scripteroo:

@echo off

cls

echo Set variables

set source=\\server\share\applications\quicktime

set log=%temp%\QuickTimeInstall.log

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Start install script>%log%

:FindSource

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Find Source Folder

if /i exist %source% goto FindExe

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : %source% folder not found. Quitting>>%log%

goto eof

:FindExe

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Find executable

if /i exist %source%\QuickTimeInstaller.exe goto Main

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : %source%\QuickTimeInstaller.exe file not found (permissions?). Quitting>>%log%

goto eof

:Main

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Make directory %temp%\QuickTime

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Make directory %temp%\QuickTime>>%log%

if /i not exist %temp%\QuickTime md %temp%\QuickTime

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Copy %source%\QuickTimeInstaller.exe to %temp%>>%log%

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Copy %source%\QuickTimeInstaller.exe to %temp%

copy %source%\QuickTimeInstaller.exe %temp%\QuickTime>nul

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : CD to %temp%\QuickTime>>%log%

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : CD to %temp%\QuickTime

c:

cd %temp%\QuickTime

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Extract QuickTime MSI files>>%log%

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Extract QuickTime MSI files

QuickTimeInstaller /extract

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Run %temp%\AppleApplicationSupport.msi>>%log%

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Run %temp%\AppleApplicationSupport.msi

AppleApplicationSupport.msi /quiet /norestart /l %log%.tmp

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Copy temp log to main log file.

type %log%.tmp >>%log%

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Run %temp%\AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi>>%log%

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Run %temp%\AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi

AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi /quiet /norestart /l %log%.tmp

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Copy temp log to main log file.

type %log%.tmp >>%log%

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Run %temp%\QuickTime.msi>>%log%

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Run %temp%\QuickTime.msi

QuickTime.msi /quiet /norestart /l %log%.tmp

echo %date% %time% %~nx0 : Complete log file.

type %log%.tmp >>%log%

:eof

Just save this as a .bat (or.cmd) file, and call it from your (Computer Configuration) GPO. Although note that I've not tested it from a GPO, only as a double-click and as a Task Sequence step in SCCM. Of course the QuickTimeInstaller.exe needs to be present in the \\server\share\applications\quicktime path!

Thinking about it, you'll only want this script to run once (not on EVERY reboot!) so, add echo Done!>%SystemDrive%\QuicktimeInstalled.flg just before :eof and if /i exist %SystemDrive%\QuicktimeInstalled.flg goto eof somewhere at the top of the script (e.g. line 2). So, when the script gets to the end it'll create the .flg file, then on subsequent runs, if/when it finds this .flg file. the script will just quit out.

The usual "The script is supplied "as is" and you run it at your own risk" caveat applies.

Tks. Worked!😁

Thank you for this. Worked like a charm. (Windows 10 on 1-21-18)

Whao! dude! It worked. I learned something new thanks to you! Thanks a lot 😀
