So far I have experienced many problems with Quicktime. I cannot see the point in developing softwares with this buggy plugin. However, they made the softwares anyway, which are very useful, so we have to manage to get around the problems.
If you use only one of the softwares above and you encounter any error, just uninstall the current Quicktime version on your computer and install the one that is bundled with the software. If you use two or more of them, or if you are using iTunes, I would recommend that you update Quicktime to the latest version, then follow these methods to fix them.
Copy plugins folder
OALD7 does not recognize Quicktime 7, and the only solution is to replace the folder 'plugins' in 'OALD7' with the one in 'Quicktime'. Remember to exit any instance of OALD7 before you do so. Both 'OALD7' and 'Quicktime' can be found in 'Program files'. If you still do not know where the folders are, try using 'Search' function in Windows.Download a patch from the software's official website
Britannica itself does not know any Quicktime version apart from the one that comes along with it, which is a little bit too outdated. Google the keyword 'britannica quicktime error', you will find the link to its support website. Follow the instruction to download and patch your software.Turn off Directx acceleration in Quicktime
Pronunciation Power (CD version) and Britannica may pop up an error message and exit itself or become frozen forever when they are not working well with the latest version of Quicktime. I heard that Director related issues can be solved with this method, too. Now what you have to do is to go to Quicktime menu, 'Edit', 'Preferences', 'Quicktime Preferences', 'Advanced' tab, then find the options for 'Video' and select 'Safe mode (GDI only).'
Now that I have mentioned all the resolutions to Quicktime related errors that I have come across, if you have any more difficulty, just feel free to discuss here.
