ITunes installer for v.9.0.2.25 refuses to run om my system

When I try to update/install to v. 9.0.2.25 on Windows XP I repeatedly get the following error message:'There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this installer to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.' I click OK then the install rolls back and the following appears: The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To retry these operations at a later time, please run the installer again.
Based on other posts I tried the following:
1. Uninstalled previous version of iTunes.
2. Downloaded installer from various sources in case it is corrupted
3. Turned all firewall/antiviral software off
NOTHING HELPS!!!!
Now I am without iTunes.
Also the reason for trying to update was to fix another problem that started a few days ago. Simply could not connect to the iTunes store anymore. Error code 11556 I think. There's a mention of this in another post but nothing they suggested works.

When I tried to uninstall the Apple Software Update, I got the error message 'There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.'
With that one, Barb, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from Microsoft:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
Now run the utility ("Start > All programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any *Apple Software Update* entries and click "Remove". Quit out of CleanUp.
Are you able to continue with the rest of the uninstalls now?

  • Where can I find the iTunes installer for Windows XP 64 bit?

    I am using windows XP SP3, 64 bit but cant find the iTunes 10.5 installer for the same? The iTunes64Setup.exe says that its only supported for Vista. Any way to get this working?
    Appreciate the help.

    I wonder if you can use the regular 32-bit installer. Even on 64-bit machines the iTunes application is still 32-bit so there is no real difference in what gets installed.
    System requirements:
    Windows Software
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, or 32-bit editions of Windows 7
    64-bit editions of Windows Vista or Windows 7 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
    Note it doesn't make a distinction between 32-bit and 64-bit versions of XP, simply states SP2 or later.

  • ITunes Installer for Vista PC

    I downloaded iTunes 10.6 for installation on a Vista PC.  When installing I got error saying I needed a 64 bit installer.  I don't see an installation option for 64 bit installer.  Can anyone help?

    HRESULT:0X80072712
    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? Are they also 80072712, or some other number? (If they're another number, what number are you getting?)

  • ITunes installation for 11.1.4 failed, tried multiple other ways to install/repair...still not working (cannot open)

    I got an error message after trying to upgrade to the latest version of iTunes. I have tried installing via Apple Download (originally did this and it didn't work either of the times I tried), manually tried installing/repairing (gave error message that it couldn't open when it finished), from the apple site (tried repairing and gave exact same error message as manual update), and uninstalled and then reinstalled (took a long time on installing the startup section of the reparing...pretty sure that's where the error is in the update) followed with a restart of my computer...still same error message. If anyone knows how to fix this or if Apple could fix this, that would be great. Error messages displayed:

    I updated tonight and ran into two very similar errors.
    The first error is your same 127 error and the other error looks like this -
    I'm on Windows 8.1
    As for what I did, I uninstalled then reinstalled. Same thing. Then I uninstalled everything Apple related on my PC then reinstalled Quicktime then iTunes. Same thing. Then I uninstalled everyting Apple related again then installed iTunes. Same thing.
    Hopefully it will be patched soon.

  • ITunes Installation for iPhone

    Perhaps someone else has run into this issue. I had to deinstall my iTunes application and now that I have successfully reinstalled iTunes, it doesn't recognize the iPhone. I get a pop-up message that tells me to deinstall and reinstall iTunes...which I have done twice now to now avail. In the past, all I had to do was connect my iPhone for it to be recognized, but something must have changed in the latest version of iTunes. Can anyone steer me in the right direction?

    when you uninatall itunes there are some other programs you also have to uninstall before you can reinstall a new copy of itunes - they have to be done in a specific order

  • 64 bit itunes installer

    Hi I'm trying to install Itunes on my new computer and it will not allow me to install until I install the 64 bit itunes installer. Where do I get this?

    I have just instaled a fresh copy of windows xp 64bit
    There is no iTunes installer for XP64.
    You will need to find instructions on the internet (not at Apple) to find out how to install the Vista 64 bit version of iTunes on XP64.

  • After rebooting my Windows Vista 64 bit system, could not access iTunes; after uninstalling I tried reinstalling, but it has been running for more than 24 hrs. Should I cancel installation?

    I had been updating my Windows Vista 64 bit system and as a result of a problem, had to reboot my system. Afterwards, I was no longer able to access iTunes.  I got a message stating that there was a problem with some of the files associated with the application.  A phone rep at Apple's Customer Service provided me with emails linking instructions on completely uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. I did the uninstall, then checked for lingering iTunes files and couldn't completely remove some, but tried intalling the latest version of iTunes. It has been running for roughly 24 hours.  The status bar is green all the way across, and when I try to cancel, I get the following message: "Are you sure you want to cancel iTunes installation?"  I keep hitting "no," but am staring to wonder if there is a problem with the install.  Should it take this long if I have roughly 134 gigs of music?  I can still see the music in my computer's C drive, so I am worried that there is an error, perhpas because I didn't clear out all the lingering C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and all the lingering C:\Program Files\iTunes\.  Any thoughts?

    It is not just the HP. I have 3 HP computes and 2 Dell computers. 2 of the HP and 1 Dell suffer the iTunes internet block. Took me a while to figure it out also. But, the one thing that is different on the Dell, is that I can leave iTunes installed and not open it and everything works. As soon as I open it, internet access goes down. BUT secure sites (https:) works fine.

  • I am trying to upload itunes 10.5, but get a message "There is a problem with this Window Installer Pkg. A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor".  What is it I need to do?

    I am trying to install itunes 10.5, but during the download I get the following message, "There is a problem with this Window Installer Package.  A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your support personanal or package vendor."  If this is my personal computer and was able to upgrade to the previous version (pre 10.5), why not now?  What is my "package vendor"? And what is it I need to do to fix this?  The message is unclear.  Unfortunately, I deleted my itunes program, thinking that in doing so, 10.5 would finally load.  Now I have no itunes on my computer and unable to sync my iphone.  Help!
    Thanks - Rick

    Hi Rick,
    by "repair" I mean I went to the control panel, option - programs and features, and in the list of all my installed programs I selected "Apple Software Update". On top of the screen you find the options Uinstall, Change and Repair. I clicked the repair button and that did the trick. After the repair I could uninstall the program. I also uninstalled iTunes, Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support en Bonjour, thus all Apple programs. Then I installed iTunes 10.5 again and everything went fine.
    Success,

  • I'm not able to download Itunes.  I keep getting this Apple Software Update message that states "There is a problem with this Windows installer package.  A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your package vendor"

    Not able to access Itunes store anymore.  Just quit working for no reason.  I've tried deleting Itunes and related components from the Control Panel, but when I try to remove Apple Software Update, I get a message that states "There is a problem with this Windows installer package.  A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor".  Not sure what this message means.  Am I suppose to contact Apple ?  What is meant by package vendor ?

    Apparently it's an itunes issue. I just tried to update and got the same issue. Called att to activate my iphone 4s and they say they can do the swap but apple is telling them itunes is down atm.  So will have to wait
