Itunes 10.5 will not download on windows 64bit

im seeing lots of this. 10.5 will not download onto my comp. i have 64bit windows 7. tryed everything. keep getting same error message,
There is a problem with the windows installer package. A program for this install to complete could not be run.
I uninstalled itunes from computer, tryed again. and nothing. same thing.
had to re-download 10.4.1 which downloaded with no problem.
what is goin on with this new update?

I saw it in the forum yesterday!  I had to dig to find it... but then I come here today and I see so many people having the same issue... so I made a thread that has the solution as the first post and replied to some other peoples' threads.
I don't really know why iTunes 10.5 has this problem, but this fix seems to always do the trick!
Hopefully Apple can find the root of the problem so people don't have to do this in a future iTunes release.  It must have something to do with the push notification system they added to iTunes.  (In iTunes 10.5, your computer connects to Apple's Push Notification System so that it can know when your iPhone is on the Wi-Fi network and also to advertise when the computer itself is on the network.  It also receives requests to sync via Wi-Fi this way as well...)

  • Itunes 10.1 will not download because I can't get old apple application support off my computer windows xp

    itunes 10.1 will not download because I can't get old apple application support off my windows XP. 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 Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Next, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:

    Does it go through properly this time?

  • I tunes will not download on windows 8.1

    i tunes will not download with windows 8.1

    i dont get any message,  its just gets stuck while downloading, and will not finish.
    Many thanks.
    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?
    If you still can't get a working installer from the standard download page, try the following direct download links for 11.1.5.5:
    iTunes 11.1.5 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-02-25)
    iTunes 11.1.5 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-02-25)

  • TS1412 i purchased a movie from itunes and it will not download! why?

    i am on vacation and wanted to relax with a nice long movie so i purchased the film scarface for 9.99 on itunes and it will not download and through all of my effort to make it download i have learned about converters and all kinds of mumbo jumbo how do i just watch the movie that i purchased? i do not want to get a refund for the movie....

    this is the iMovie board - about the editing software delivered free with any Mac.
    purchased movies can only be playbacked in iTunes.
    any mumbo jambo probably gets better explained in the 'iTunes for Windows'-section of this board:

    NNeed help....my itune store will not download on mi iphone 4 since the latest download

    Neither will mine. I have restored the iphone 4s and that doesn't help. I upgraded on my iPad also, and that works fine. I just can't get in the store on my phone.  Checked my password, that is correct. Did a chat last night with a guy from Apple, and nothing he told me worked. Have an appt with at store with genius, maybe the can come up with something.

  • ITunes 11.1 will not download!!!

    Trying to update my iPhone from ios 6.1.3 to 7.0 and when I click the update button in iTunes it says:
    "A new iPhone software version (7.0) is available, but requires iTunes 11.1. Would you like to download iTunes 11.1 now?"
    I click the Download iTune Now button and App Store opens and looks like it's thinking and then I get the"Your Software Is Up To Date" message but iTunes 11.1 DID NOT DOWNLOAD!!!!!
    Awesome QA Apple!! NOT.
    Suckage

  • One imac, two iphones. one account has current itunes, other side will not download current itunes. Downloaded from apple website, did not help. help?

    We have one imac, two iphones, two imac/iphone user accounts. My account updated itunes and the phone quite easily. The other side will not update itunes  - it shows there is an update available, then says there is not. I tried installing from the apple store. It installed, but did not change the version of itunes active on the computer (we even turned it off and on, a la Windows).  SO we synced his phone with my side - it updated the OS, but otherwise restored the phone to factory settings. (he is not happy). So I tried to restore it from a backup on his side just to see what would happen, and of course it can't because the phone's software is more current that his itunes.
    So we're in a maddening loop.  Factory settings, no updated itunes, no access to the backups.

    The feed is fine. The problem lies with the URL for the media files. I checked the latest episode; the file will play in a browser, and as you say on the iTunes Store; but when subscribing there is an error message that the file requires authentication.
    This would happen if you had password-protected it, but that would also appear when playing in a browser. The use of PHP or similar to serve the files is asking for trouble - sometimes it works, sometimes it upsets either the Store or subscribing or both. In this case it would seem that either the scripting is throwing iTunes and leading it to believe that a password is required (though it's not bringing up the pane asking for one), or your server is reacting differently to requests from the iTunes application to the way it reacts to requests from the Store or a browser, where the protocol is different.
    It's not an iTunes problem. Strictly you should be putting the actual URL of the file in the feed, not a script; and you may need to check your server settings top make sure it allows downloading in iTunes as well as playing elsewhere.

  • Itunes version 11 will not open with windows 8 pro, itunes version 11 will not open with windows 8 pro

    I install the new itunes version 11 .The program will not open. What is the problem . I have windows 8 pro.

    I can't even get it to install. The installation process stalls at a certain point and nothing happens. I try to cancel and that doesn't work either.

  • ITunes 64 bit will not install on Windows 7 (64-Bit)

    I downloaded the 64bit version if iTunes (itunes64setup.exe), and when I went to install it, it went through most of the installation procedure and it stated that I should "download the 64 bit version of the iTunes software" (which as I said before, I already did).
    I did the "delete the temp folder" bit, and that did not help. I would like to be able to just update my iPhone from anything other than my Netbook. So what should I do. A nice set of "step by step" instructions would help.
    I already searched the "Support" section, and I could not find ANYTHING on the 64 bit version of iTunes. So I followed every instruction on "problems with installing iTunes" that related to the 32 bit just to make sure.
    So basically, the "64 bit software" is reading like it is the "32 bit software" and I have downloaded the software and re-downloaded it 3 more times. Same problem each time.

    Same problem for me. iTunes 64bits instlls well up to 80% of the process.
    then it says that some software components are missing.
    I was never able of completing my iTunes installation (on my new computer).
    earlier versions are no longer available and the iTunes for 32bits isn't accepted by Windows 7 64 bits.
    Can anyone at Apple explain what this is ?
    Has anyone experienced the same problem ?

  • Itunes 6.0 will not open in windows

    The new version of itunes will not open but in the windows task manager it shows that itunes is running. I want to know how to fix this problem, see if norton anti virus is causing the problem, or will apple release a new version of itunes that fixes this problem.

    hi Gregory!
    I want to know how to fix this problem, see if norton anti virus is causing the problem,
    are you running Norton Internet Security 2005? if so, that's been causing this to people on installs/upgrades since 4.8.
    if it's just itunes processes being blocked, you can fix it using these techniques:
    b noir, "itunes wont open" #6, 02:11pm Oct 3, 2005 CDT
    ... but if that doesn't work, you're probably getting QT processes blocked too, and you should try "Lorraine":

    keep us posted.

  • ITunes latest version will not launch in Windows 7

    iTunes will not lauch regardless of what I do.  I have tried re-installing with no luck.  I have tried holding down ctrl-shift keys when attempting to launch, that didn't work either.  I just get a window that Apple wants to make changes to my computer and I respond yes, but still nothing happens.  When I try to launch iTunes nothing happens, no error message or anything.  I am at a loss as to what to try next.  Please someone HELP!

    Now nothing happens when launching iTunes.  No messages appear.
    Could you check something further for me, please? Is your QuickTime Player also currently failing to launch (with or without an error message)?
