All the time is correct( in the meaning of "always" and also "a particular period of time"
Quantity is a noun that can be countable and uncountable in the meaning of large amount of smth. Ex.We sell these goods in small quantities. We sell a large quantity of cotton.
And uncountable only implying the measurement of something by saying how much of it there is. |

. In other words, if you say "all the times" you are referring to "all of the instances that something specific happened". It would most likely be used to refer to the past.
