Possible conflict with multiple jquery plugins
You can run two separate versions of jQuery, which is what your situation seems to require.

This module offers hope to an easy resolution . https://drupal.org/project/jqmulti

Otherwise this document offers more clarity: https://drupal.org/node/1058168

Generally speaking, you only need a single instance of jQuery installed on the server, which might be called from many different scripts scattered all over the place. However sometimes you'll have a requirement for jQuery more recent than your current stock-Drupal installation. This is when you want to run multiple jQuery versions (because you don't want to simply upgrade your single instance, which would break standard Drupal jQuery stuff like the admin-menu).

(function($){ 
    // your code here, using jQuery 1.7.1 setup w/ jqmulti module
    alert("jQuery version = " + $().jquery); //proves jquery version being used
})(jq171)
