Hello, Edward.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I think the best option would be to completely uninstall all components of iTunes in the order specified of the article below. Once this is done attempt to install iTunes again.
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

itunes won't install. I get a message stating "apple mobile device failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient priveleges to start system services. I had itunes on this laptop and an urgrade came. Now nothing. Windows7, 64 bit
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

I couldn't open my itunes so after trying to do a fix that didn't work I uninstalled itunes then tried to install it again. I get to the start service portion of the download and get the Device failed message. I don't have a mobile device associated with itunes for this to even come up. Can anyone help?

My iTunes became corrupted. I tried to upgrade to a new version, but things only got worse. Some of the error messages I received:
APSDaemon - Unable to locate component
This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dl was not found. Rinstalling the application may fix this problem.
So, I deleted my downloads and past attempts and any .dl files I had and tried again. Now I get this message:

Cannot install itunes Keep getting this message:An error occured during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft .VC80.CRT .type="win32" ,version="8.0.50727.6195".publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b".processorArchitectu re="x86"'. Please refer to Help and sup
These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.) -

If you end up having to remove and reinstall iTunes, make sure you follow all of the steps in this link:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
This section contains information that might help your situation, as the order and manner which you uninstall has an effect on the outcome:
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
Let us know if following that article and uninstalling those components in that order helped the situation.

i'M TRYING TO UPDATE MY VERSION OF ITUNES. i GET A MESSAGE THAT MSVCR80.DLL IS MISSING AND THAT I NEED TO REINSTALL. wHEN I DO THAT, I GET A MESAGE THAT APPLE MOBILE DEVICE FAILED TO START AND IT WON'T LET ME OPEN ITUNES. WHAT DO I DO?
Check out the user tip below.

i tray to reinstall i tunes in my pc after having error 7, but wyle in the instalation this mesage appear said service apple mobile device failed to star. verefy that you have suficient privileges to star system services.
Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, does an iTunes install go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -

I have tried everything but I can't connect my iphone to my laptop. It says that apple mobile device failed to be installed. I have read everything on the internet and did everything but still am facing the same problem. Can you please help me.
Again without stating the trouble shooting steps you have taken, its hard to direct you with any information.
Try a different port on the computer.
Does the iphone beep when u plug it up. ?
Plug iphone into computer and give it 3 to 4 minutes to see if it connects and is running slow.,
Delete the apple mobile device from your computer.
Upgrade itunes to newest version.
Is you USB cord defective ?
Any USB 3.0 on your system ? .
Delete or Disable any antivirus program on your computer ?
I will tell u the problem is your computer not the phone.
We could do this for hours. -
