Posted at 12:21 PM ET, 03/12/2007 QuickTime Security Update Taxes Some Mac Users

Some computer users running Apple Mac OS X are having a bit of a taxing time with the TurboTax software after installing a recent security update for Apple's QuickTime media player. The QuickTime update, released last week, effectively prevents a number of programs from launching.

The problem appears to be limited to users of Mac OS X 10.3.9 and earlier versions, but the interference caused by the QuickTime update is not limited to TurboTax. The update is reportedly causing problems with games such as World of Warcraft, Age of Empires III, Full Tilt Poker and Snake, according to numerous threads at the online user forums of both Apple and TurboTax.

It looks like TurboTax parent Intuit plans to release an update on Monday to try and work around Apple's patch. The company even posted a link where users can leave their contact information to be alerted when a fix is available. ...

Moderator: This has been posted because it is informative to Apple-based TurboTax users and may be useful to practitioners. The non tax-related remainder was snipped in case of copyright issues.
