  • Several errors: missing MSVCR80.dll, "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start", Error 7

    I have been trying all morning to re-install iTunes, but continually receive the following errors:
    "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."
    "iTunes was not installed correctly,  Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 126)"
    "iTunesHelper.exe - System Error: The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
    I have found a solution on iTunes support for the Error 7 message and followed the instructions, but the problem was not resolved.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes several times (I am doing all of this through the administrator sign on on my Windows 7 PC), and still receive these errors.  I have purchased a registry cleaning tool to try to fix the .dll error and it was not resolved.  I can't even get iTunes to install properly on my computer and have lost all use of the program.  I am at a loss as to what to do!!  Can anyone help!!

  • Service Apple Mobile Device failed to start (Error 7- windows error 14001)

    I've tried downloading Itunes onto my laptop (Windows 7). Each time its almost downloaded it fails with a box entitled 'Service Apple Mobile Failed to Start. Verify you have priveleges to start system services, I've tried pressing 'retry' and 'ignore' that doesn't help as also unistalling the entire Itunes software and reinstalling again.

    Hi rochd,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  I recommend following this particular method of uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, to see if that helps:

    I am having this same problem. I took Kappy advice on restarting the Apple Mobile Device Service, however that did not work. I got this message in a pop up window that came up immediately.
    Windows could not start the Apple Mobil Device Service on local computer.
    Error 1053  The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
    I have already uninstalled itunes, all the related programs and I cannot reinstall, this Apple Mobil Device message stops the install.
    Can anyone please help?

  • Tried to update ITunes, but keep getting error: Service "Apple Mobile Device" failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services". How do I get my ITunes back?

    Tried to update ITunes, but keep getting error: Service "Apple Mobile Device failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."
    So how do I get my ITunes back? 

    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.

  • TS3212 I receive a massage that a new version of ITunes was available (11.1.4). I proceeded to update, the download went ok but when installing the Message "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start, verify that you have sufficient Privileges to start

    I receive a massage that a new version of ITunes was available (11.1.4). I proceeded to update, the download went ok but when installing the Message “Service ’Apple Mobile Device’ failed to start, verify that you have sufficient Privileges to start system Services”
    On pressing retry I got the same message.
    On pressing Ignore, I got the message “ITunes was not installed correctly, please reinstall ITunes – Error 7 – (windows error 126)
    I reinstalled with the same error messages and the same results.
    I uninstalled existing and reinstalled from scratch and the same error messages again.
    I try to repair and at the end it said it had installed correctly – but when it tried to start I got the message “This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem” I now get the same message when I first start the computer but when I press ok I receive ““ITunes was not installed correctly; please reinstall ITunes – Error 7 – (windows error 126)” again.
    It appears the update has not only corrupted the operating system (Xp Pro SP3) of my computer but I have no backups to my IPhone, my wife’s IPhone or the three others phones that use my computer.
    I hope you can advise me how to recover my backups
