I'm trying to download the latest version of iTunes.  I get an "SoftwareUpdate.exe - Entry Point Not Found error".  Any idea what might cause this?

THe error box says procedure entry point not found....then a string of code that "could not be located in the SoftwareUpdateFiles.dll".
I'm try to update my software so I can sync my iPhone with my current iTunes library.
any help greatly appreciated.

Let's first try a repair install of your Apple Software Update.
In your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select Apple Software Update, click "Change" and then click "Repair".
Does the repair go through okay? If so, try another iTunes update. Does it install properly this time?

  • After installing the current version of iTunes, I get an AppleSyncNotifier.exe - Entry Point Not Found error. It says "The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll."

    After installing the current version of iTunes, I get an AppleSyncNotifier.exe - Entry Point Not Found error. It says "The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll." Kindly advice a process to get rid of this error, without losing my files on the iTunes.

    Hi, I get the same error EVERY time iTunes updates.
    I have to do the fix that is suggested in this topic (cut and paste the sqlite3.dll)
    My Question:
    Since this happens every time iTunes updates...... Do I have to remove SQlite3.dll from the "apple application support" folder....... so that the sqlite3.dll is only located in the "mobile device support" folder?????
    It is getting really annoying to have to do the "cut and paste" fix every time iTunes updates.
    Thank You,

  • HT1926 I tried to download the latest version of iTunes but now seem to have lost everything and can not access my library at all. Instead i keep on receiving the message 'Application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. I cannot access

    I tried to download the latest version of iTunes but failed half way through. It suggested that i reinstall we I tried. However, i now get this message which states "Application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem"
    I have tried this but with no success. I have therefore found that I cannot access my iTunes library at all now.
    What should I do.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

    When trying to download the latest version of iTunes, I receive the following error "Apple Application Support was not found", any suggestions?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component, such as Apple Application Support, won't install normally.

  • I am trying to download the latest version of iTunes to my PC (windows XP) and I keep getting an error message or two. One is that it can't uninstall the previous itunes version, the other is that it can't find itunes.msi.

    I am trying to download the latest version of iTunes to my PC (windows XP) and I keep getting an error message or two. One is that it can't uninstall the previous itunes version, the other is that it can't find itunes.msi. I have tried removing  the old version in add/remove programs, but it says the same error. I tried deleting every thing that has itunes in the file/folder/etc and it didn't help.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Why do I get an "invalid signature" message when trying to download the latest version of iTunes?

    Why do I get an "invalid signature" message when trying to download the latest version of iTunes?  Apple Support is the lamest excuse for support I have EVER seen.

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • When trying to download the latest version of iTunes, I got 2 errors:  MSVCR80.dll missing and then Error 7 (Windows error 126)  HELP!

    When trying to downlead the latest version of iTunes, I got 2 errors:
    1.  MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
    Service "Apple Mobile Device" failed to start.  Verify your admin ......
    2.  iTunes was not installed correctly.  Error 7 (Windows error 126)
    Please help!

    Do you have Windows XP Pro?
    see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5840089?tstart=0
    there is a stupid checkbox you must uncheck, saying "protect my computer and data from unauthorized program activity"
    You see this screen when you right-click on the ItunesSetup.exe in your Downloads folder.
    downloads>ItunesSetup.exe  (right-click)>yourself as admin & UNCHECK THAT BOX!>  conntinue with new installation and even find your old playlists still  intact!!
    This is apparently a Windows XP fix alone. MSVCR80.dll is (probably) reinstalled by Itunes under a partnership aggreement with Microsoft.
    Using the Microsoft "Fix It" utility at http://support.microsoft.com/mats/program_install_and_uninstall/en does NOT fix anything. Abandon All Hope Ye Who Run This Utility More Than Once

    When attempting to download the latest version of iTunes I receive a message that there is no installation package found (iTunes.msi).  Searching my computer, I cannot locate a file with the msi designation.

  • When I start my computer I get a "AppleSyncNotifier.exe Entry Point Not Found message.  I also get an error message when trying to sync with iTunes that a backup session cannot be started.  How do I fix this?

    In the last few days when I start my computer, I get a box that opens with "AppleSyncNotifier.exe" Entry Point Not Found in the title.
    It says:  "The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQlite3.dll.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and still get an error message when trying to sync my phone with iTunes
    "iTunes could not back up iPhone ####, because a session could not be started with the iPhone."
    The last time I tried to sync my phone (iPhone 3G S) with iTunes, everything seemed to freeze up at Stage 4 of the sync process. 
    Any advice????

    With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
    Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
    Reboot and see if all is well
    In case that your OS is Windows 7 (64 bit)
    1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
    3. Open new windows explorer, to to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
    4. Paste file "SQLite3.dll" to the location.
    5. Reboot your computer, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
    Good Luck
