PLEASE HELP!
I have quicktime 6.5 fow windows (XP). I downloaded a game from a gamesite that requires QT 6.3 or earlier. I found downloads of 6.0 and 6.3 (and some earliers) on a few different websites, including apple. I download them, start the install, get almost to the end of the install when i get a message that says a newer install is available and this install will now stop, the newer install will then begin.......then it automatically installs 6.5 again. I cant stop it from doing that!
ANY IDEAS?????
i have been trying this for days!
I thank you in advance for any help you can provide!
take care,

if you are still looking for older versions of quicktime try this. go to www.oldversion.com. you should be able to find the version you need. hope this helps you out.

I have tried QT alternative. It mirrors QT 7, the new QT, and doesnt work.
Thanks for the idea.
Any more ideas???

i have already tried disconnecting from the internet before the update....doesnt work...tells me that i need an internet connection to continue....i dont think ctrl+alt+del will work because the install of the early program never completes before it switches over to the newer version. but hey...i will try anything at this point....
thanks for the suggestions.....please, if there are more, i will take them!
thanks again for everyones ideas and thoughts on this....keep 'em coming

Hi,
Use the little red triangle to 'report' your post and ask the moderators/admin to reduce your request to one post in the right forum.

You might want to try quicktime alternative. It is much smaller than quicktime and works just as well. You can find it here:

nope...that didnt work either....thanks again
any more ideas???

Have you uninstalled 6.5?

i already tried the versions from that site...they also switch over to 6.5 towards the end of the install.
