Simply play a video via quicktime and it should start up by itself. If not, remove QT from your PC and the reinstall it.

You can use Quicktime Alternative if you don't like using Quicktime to view .mov files.

Also reccomend VLC Player. I think it'll play .mov files, I know it'll play other Apple formats (.mp4, m4v).

VLC Player: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

Quicktime Alternative: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/QuickTime_Alternative.htm

You have registry entry most likely in these spots to look for them and clear them out. This has been an on going thing with apple dating back 6 years now. Have fun

[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\image/tiff]

Do you have Itunes installed? I have seen this error in the past and had uninstall Itunes and re-install Itunes with quicktime together.
