ITunes wont install or uninstall!!

I have an ipod touch 2nd gen and an ipod shuffle 2nd gen. But i am unable to use them with itunes. I then went to uninstall itunes but it doesnt work.
the problem seems to be related to the CD Configuration folder located in the program files part of itunes. the error message always has something to do with that folder in it saying "an error occoured while attempting to create the directory..." i am also unable to fully delete the itunes folder in program files as it says i do not have permission to delete the CD Config. folder. Thus meaning that when i go to reinstall itunes it has trouble removing sed folder.
I am logged in as an admin. and have full ownership of the Cdrive and its contents...
Any help??
Thanks in advance.

Try taking ownership and full control again. You shouldn't be getting that message.

You might also turn off UAC for the install, then turn it back on again.

TS5376 iTunes wont install. It says " The program can't start because MediaAccessibility.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." I have uninstalled iTunes 5 times and reinstalled it, and nothing has worked.

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.

10.5 iTunes wont install on my computer

10.5 iTunes wont install on my computer I have XP with service pack 3, intel 1.6 GHz, and 1.99 GB of RAM (sorry I really have no clue what that all means, i just know/hope it met the requirements to ride this rollercoaster), I do not get any error codes, when i hit run or save on the install wizard, it just vanishes, it does nothing, i followed the advice of the online support stuff i found on apple.com (BIG Mistake) and uninstalled all apple stuff, i still have nothing! so now I have no iTunes, and believe i have lost all my music and pictures... at least on my computer, theyre still on my old iphone please HELP!!!

itunes wont install, runtime error R6034 also 'apple mobile device' wont start! help!

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.

Ok, Below is what worked for me somewhat.
Okay ... try downloading and saving a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe to your PC from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Now download a trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/download.php
Open the iTunesSetup.exe with WinRAR, and try to run the standalone install of Apple Application Support from the AppleApplicationSupport.msi you find in there.
It works now BUT there are still problems. It is not allowing or recognizing my Cd/DVD player and i CANT burn. Looking still for this fix.

Hi itunes wont install windows error 2 keep popping up what do i do?

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.

Itunes wont install on my laptop?

itunes wont install on my windows 7 (64 bit) laptop i have tried about a 100 times and not working

That's a rarer variation on this sort of problem.
(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 Mobile Device Support 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?

Hello Karl,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with installing the latest iTunes update. I recommend following the steps below as an administrator:
Resolution
Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
Check for .dll files
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
Reboot your computer.
Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.

Itunes wont install, please help

I know this issue has been raised several times and I have read most of the posts and still cant fix the issue. I have updated Itunes today and since trying to update it I can now longer load it. I have tried uninstalling everything about 10 times now and then reistalling but it dont work. If I click on the Itunes logo it comes up with the message itunes.exe is missing and the apple software update wont install either. To top it all off I needed to restore factory settins on my iphone but because of the itunes crash and the fact that I cant reinstal anyting I cannot do this so am without a phone now. I am now at the end of my tether after spending about 7 hours trying to rectify the issue so I could really do with some advice? I have tried the repair function but this has done nothing either!

This morning I have uninstalled everything again and tried to individually install all the parts, quicktime and itunes comes up with the warning fatal error during installation or someting similar and the apple softwareupdate still does not install.

Hi HelpAimee!
It sounds like you may need to uninstall your version of iTunes and then reinstall the newest version:

http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
There are certain components of iTunes that need to be uninstalled in order, so make sure you follow the uninstall steps in the above article. You can then visit the following link to get the latest version of iTunes and install it:
