Please Help....iTunes will not install...

error message: the installer encountered errors before iTuens could be configured.
iTuens was installed on my computer before...but when I tried to upgrade it to the newest version it did not let me do so...i tried to remove iTuens from my computer and i got an error message.
So I looked at the apple support website for answers and I followed the procedure for removing the installation files. Now I do not have Ituens on my computer and I cannot reinstall it.
Please help..

    iv been having some problems with my itunes to it cant find the .msi file or seomething
    With that one, let's try the following procedure.
    First, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. If it goes, good. If it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to iTunes.
    Next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility:
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    Now launch Windows Installer CleanUp ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"), find any iTunes and/or QuickTime entries in the list of programs in CleanUp, select those entries, and click “remove”.
    Next, we'll manually remove any leftover iTunes or QuickTime program files:
    (1) Open Local Disk (C:) in Computer or whichever disk programs are installed on.
    (2) Open the Program Files folder.
    (3) Right-click the iTunes folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion.
    (4) Right-click the QuickTime folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. (Note: This folder may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
    (5) Delete the QuickTime and QuicktimeVR files located in the C:\Windows\system32\ folder. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue. (Note: These files may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
    (6) Right-click on the Recycle Bin and on the shortcut menu, click Empty Recycle Bin.
    (7) Restart your computer.
    Now try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly now?

  • PLEASE HELP ITUNES WILL NOT LOAD

    hi thanks for looking
    iv got the latest version of itunes but when i click on it i starts to load then just stops
    cheers steve

    I have similar issues...
    Three pc's, two are identical hardware twins (one is a clone for the other as absolute backup) the other my home PC.
    One of the twins upgraded no problems. The sibling upgraded but iTunes will not come to the desktop, it loads and sits in the process list doing nothing.
    I checked all the "answers" in this forum and nothing worked on the twin pc at all except uninstalling and going back to the previous version which I had to get from the hippo site (note to Apple: at least leave the previous version available for download for those "update" moments).
    The home machine upgraded but I lost my audio drivers and software completely. Fixed it by re-installing the audio drivers and software after installing iTunes.
    Either way you look at it there are a lot of users on the pc with this problem, Apple have changed something fundamental (you never used to have to reboot after upgrading or fresh installing) and it is causing issues that they should address.
    Wasted a lot of time sorting this out for myself and not sure I want to "upgrade" to the next release, not sure I trust Apple software forward of this as I have a lot of music stored and the thought of having to really have to recreate the library because of an update issue ith no fall back...
    Rabtok.

  • Ask your question.please help itunes will not launch on my computer the icon on desktop has changed to a white folder no error message appears and it appears but then disappears in task manager when the programme will not open quick time is working

    please help i need to fix my itunes it will not launch on my computer . no error message appears it simply will not run. the icon on desktop has changed to a white folder and it still appears in programmes in start menu but will not open. it appears in task manager but disappears when the programme will not open

    You music etc should not be affected by problems with the iTunes program, nevertheless it is always a good idea to backup your data.
    You haven't said if there was any error message when you tried to start iTunes. If  there was one please give it in full.
    Also check to see if QuickTime works, iTunes can not work without it. If QuickTime doesn't work, it has to be fixed before worrying about iTunes.
    Then restart your PC and open your Task manger and select the Processes tab.
    Try to start iTunes, does iTunes.exe appear on the processes tab? If so does it disappear again or remain although the programs does not open?

  • Please help cs4 will not install

    I just got a new photoshop cs4 extended. pn#65015816 from ebay. I can't get it to load, a auto something will pop up fast and then go away and the disk stops turning.
    I called suport and they want a id# I don't know what they are talking about and when they found out I got it on ebay they won't even talk to me.

    if it came in it's own self contained cs4 box there should be a serial number on the back side towards the bottom of the dvd case i believe this is what they were asking for.
    at what point in the install does it stop loading?
    does it try to install, do you get a screen with install instructions?
    what happens step by step?

    You probably need to either uninstall and reinstall itunes or to download the apple application support by itself
    you can download the itunes http://www.apple.com/itunes/ here
    then to do a complete uninstall / reinstall follow these instructions http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    you could also use 7zip to extract the individual installer for apple application support from the itunes setup file http://www.7-zip.org

    Need to know your Mac model. If it's a PowerPC, the max OS is Leopard 10.5.x. If it's an Intel procesor, you can upgrade to Snow Leopard (for $29) & later to Lion.

    Fixed. /Users/x/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/AirKeysInputManager.bundle got corrupted by a badly installed safari extension. Deleting this, then reinstalling adobe air did the trick. I wasn't thorough enough on my first try, it was tricky to find everything associated. I had to look for files in the console log then search for them. Spotlight was missing some deep files, EasyFind worked better for me.

  • ITunes will not install on a 64 bit PC Win 7

    iTunes will not install on a 64 bit PC running Windows 7 with all updates.
    Most answers send you to a "cleaner" of somekind that check for errors in you PC and then wants to charge you to clean it.  My PC is CLEAN.
    Something is keeping iTunes from installing and running.  Tried 64 bit, 32 bit and all help desks.
    Same error message "This version is for a 32 bit computer, yours is a 64 bit!"  I know that and only install the 64 bit version!!!

    Same error message "This version is for a 32 bit computer, yours is a 64 bit!"
    Doublechecking ... by any chance did you migrate a 32-bit version of the iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Support and Bonjour programs to the 64-bit machine from a 32-bit machine using the PC Mover utility?
    (Your symptoms are consistent with that ... the installer service throws the message when trying to uninstall the 32-bit itunes and related 32-bit componentry prior to installing the new 64-bit versions.)

  • TS1702 itunes will not install

    Itunes will not install to my computer

    Can you describe what happens when you tryin to install it? Does the download start and then stall? Are you getting the dreaded "waiting" icon?
    Did you try resetting/rebooting your iPad after you restored? Sometimes that helps.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
