I am working on a Win 7 Machine and I have disabled all Firewall and Antivirus Tasks as this caused problems on an other update.

Well - I synced before - that was successful - but I am a bit scared to ignore this error and just to continue? You think I should ignore that?

When dowloading itunes, constantly get error message 'Apple Mobile Device -could not be installed- Verify you have sufficient privileges to install system services.

When downloading itunes to my pc, get error message 'Apple mobile device could not be installed - verify you have sufficient privileges to install system services'
i am forced to abort/cancel. Can anyone help please?

Me too. And if someone comes back on here with the same solution of "uninstall and re-install", please provide further advice after you have done that 3 times and the program still has the same problem in addition to the "failure to load the C runtime library" R6034 issue. I have removed itunes 3 times however I do not have permission to remove the program files/apple file and the uninstall doesn't remove it.
You're not alone buddy.
Frustrated.

When I try to download theupdate to iTunes, it goes through all the steps until the final one, then I get an error message "Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services", then the download stops. Any ideas on how to rectify this?

Hello Skeandhu,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with updating iTunes. You may want try downloading the latest iTunes update directly from the Apple site. When you are installing it, be sure you are logged in as an administrator:
iTunes - Download
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you continue to see the same error, I recommend the steps in the following article:

HT5654 update 11.1.4 has caused my computer to crash. i know longer have acess to my itunes and i get a repeated message telling me"apple mobile device failed to start. verify that you have sufficiant privilages to start system services.

I attempted to install the latest update. I have recieved multiple failures. I tried to repair itunes, uninstall and reinstall. i now have no access to my itunes and continually get "apple mobile device failed to start.verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

Go into Programs and Features
Uninstall:
iTunes
Bonjour*
Apple Software Update
Apple Application Support
Quicktime*
iCloud*
Apple Mobile Device Support
* I didn't have to uninstall Bonjour, iCloud or Quicktime to fix my issue but it won't hurt anything to uninstall them.
Reboot. Download a fresh copy of iTunes. Right click on the exe file and select Run as Administrator if you have the option if not just Run it. Should fix the issue.

TS2972 apple tv can't sign in to iTunes Store until the network time has been set. this is an Apple generated message. what does it mean? how can i fix it? very very very simple questions but there is no reasonable answer from Apple anywhere on the intern

this is an apple generated message. simple!
what does it mean? so far no one at apple has a clue.
how do i fix it? nothing even begins to address this issue so far. generalities about system setup show a lack of respect for customers. yes my system is plugged in and i have reset and rebooted and rechecked everything. i need help because this a real problem that needs a real solution, not more platitudes.
help please, not more wasting of my time. i have spent an entire afternoon on this already.

this is exactly the kind of response i expected, almost begged support to please not do this to me and yet there it is another meaningless, non helpful, standard template response to restart my apple tv.
this does NOT work which is why i am contacting you. i have tried all suggestions about unplugging and restarting and nothing works.
i live in an apartment and logon to the provided wifi wireless. so i do not have access to a router. however, management says they have talked with their provider and have been assured that the required ports are available.
remember all the jokes about how bad windows was because the solution was always to re boot. funny huh? how is apple any different.
i have been to the local apple care store and they are clueless, too.
should we just end it here and you admit that i will not be getting any support from apple on this one? i got the ipad because my kids were such big fans. it is difficult for me to share their enthusiasm.
at this point i am just curious about how you say you cannot support your own product so i can complete my file on this contact.
thanks...sorry it was you who got this problem..

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.

good translation! i recognised that one instantly.
okay, in this context, that usually indicates a broken existing QT setup where the QT installation configuration information has been compromised.
here's what we'll try first.
