[This upgrade of Quicktime 7.6 is a disaster for operating system of Tiger 10.4.11. The Finder quits and restarts about every two minutes, closing any open directory windows in the finder.]
Mine are every 90 seconds and the computer jumps out of the application I am in and back into the finder once it recovers. This is ridiculous! I need to find a way to revert back!! Only 1 star because of this.

Finder Crashes every 90 secs...*update* - vee_zee
As an update information has been posted elsewhere that Stuffit AVR is the issue as it conflicts with QT. It should be turned off in system preferences or login items (in accounts). This first suggestion solved the issue for me.Thursday, January 22 2009 @ 06:16 PM PST

To revert back, just go to the backup you made before installing. You did make a backup, right?Thursday, January 22 2009 @ 08:47 PM PST

Before this update I had the exact same problem when updating my wife's Powerbook to 10.4.11 just last week.Exactly the same annoying issue (but unrelated to this QT 7.6 update.)
One more thing to add to the list of fixes is open up your Stuffit Installer and Un-Install the Stuffit AVR using the uninstall tab. Only check that.
Fixed in a heartbeat . . .

I've read on other sites that this problem may be related to an incompatibility with a Stuffit AVR module, that should be disabled in System Preferences as a work-around.Reply to This
