Bâshrat the Sneaky Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 Hi,I've been searching this for 2 days now: how can I install iTunes without installing the QuickTime crap? I'm using QuickTimeAlternative anyway!Google came up with nothing but crap... Trying switches didn't help either. And documentation about it... none at all!Any ideas?Greetz,Bâshrat the Sneaky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peach Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 iTunes depends on QuickTime, so you have to install it. The best you can do is to not let QuickTime play your movie files..As far as I've heard.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nologic Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Well if you have the option of not installing it, when your manually installing the application...then it would be possible through the use of AutoIt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best you can do is to not let QuickTime play your movie files..As far as I've heard..I was hoping there was a hidden option to only install the core of QuickTime or something...Bâshrat the Sneaky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkreifus Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 Quicktime is excellent. I used to hate it, but I use the full registered version, and it's great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumpy Dooby Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Last time I used Quicktime, it had a Java GUI. That's just retarded. It ran so slow. That's when I decided that Quicktime is a pile of trash and I've used QTAlt ever since... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erik_demon Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 (edited) @mc134I believe this isn't what Bâshrat is looking for, he wants to install Itunes without QuicktimeBâshrat, maybe this post can come in handy. It has a vbs script to uninstall quicktime.EDIT:I know that this isn't what you are really looking for (a switch or something), just a workaround. I believe there is no switch available for this.

Dumpy Dooby Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 QTAlt 1.44 (newest one) has decent iTunes support ... from what I've read, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
posix Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Bâshrat the Sneakyi have your problem exactly. using quicktime alternative myself and i don't want to install quicktime. i found an itunes v6.0.0.18 on google were fans managed to take out the quicktime component. i'm using it and it works fine for me.however, the newest version of itunes is, as i'm positive you know, v6.0.1 and i could not find that one without quicktime either in case you're interested in v6.0.0.18, you can get it from me, of course.

Fr33m4n Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 (edited) couldn't you use a free file sharing host like:www.yousendit.comyou don't even have to sign up to use it.just provide a fake email address and post the link that it spits out afterwards here.??

Fr33m4n Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 thanks posix. I know their service sometimes are buggy but I don't have an ftp at my disposal. All I need for this to work is quicktime alternative right? or do I need that even? Regardless, this is so sweet. thx again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
