Hi; Attempting to upgrade to version 10.5.x, but I keep on getting an error - "There is a problem with the Windows Installer Package". I'm installing as Administrator, and have done an uninstall of the earlier version. Any ideas??
Needing to upgrade to allow connection of a 4S iPhone to the Laptop.
Thanks!! - Tim.

Repair your Apple Software Update.
Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install
If you can't find ASU in all program, you can do it in CONTROL PANEL, ADD N REMOVE PROGRAMS.

    I am trying to install iTunes on my PC (using Windows 8.1), but I get this error: "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package.

    Just in case, let's try a standalone AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi install.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe, and select "Extract to iTunesSetup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup".
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi to do a standalone ASU install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If not, what error message do you get? (Precise text, please.)

  • ITunes 10.5 will not install on 32 bit Vista. Error: 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. Any ideas?

    I've tried multiple times, cleaned temp files, updated windows and still cannot complete the install. I've noticed other problems with 10.5 and windows though it downloaded into my other PC fine. This is a clean install, iTunes has never been on this PC before. Any help is appreciated.

    All - Thanks for the information.
    I am receiving the same error, "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor." Thought I found the answer in your replies above. However, I cannot find the "Apple Software Update" program either from Start -> All Programs or the Control Panel.  I am running Windows XP, Service Pack 3. I would appreciate any additional guidance you have.

  • ITunes 10.5 Upgrade fails to Install. The Error Message is: "There is a Problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."

    When Upgrading on my laptop from iTunes 10.2.11 to 10.5.0 the message I get is: "There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package.  Aprogram run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or pacakge vendor.

    After reading all these posts, one by one did not resolve my problem until I got the very end.  Regardless of what step would resolve your problem, these are the steps I would recomment to everyone for a what seems to be a safe and fool-proof upgrade to iTunes 10.5.
    1. Stand alone upgrade to the latest Quicktime version
    2. Go to control panel and "change" then select repair to the following applications in the order specified by the post on Oct 27. (Notice I skipped Quicktime because it had been upgrade manually,and Bonjour did not have a "repair" option)
    iTunes; Apple Software Update: Mobile Device Support; Apple Applications Support
    Some of these applications may not appear if they do not apply to your configuration (no iPhone, or no iPad, or other apple devices).
    Once all updated, I did not need to restart nor launch any applications, I simply went straight into the 10.5 upgrade, and where it normally got stuck, this time the installation continued for a while longer until it completed successfully.
    Great work everyone who contributed!  Thank you very much!

    I keep getting the following error message when I try to update my itunes, "There is a problem with this windows installer package. Aprogram run as part of the set up did not finish as expected.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor."

    Yes, I had found a similar solution also.  I'm running XP Pro, SP3.  I went Control Panels/ Add-Remove programmes/apple software update/ change/ repair.  Then run the 10.5 exe.
    While the programme updated from version 8 of iTunes, my new iTunes is now a mess.  Not all of my music was in the same folder previously but it all showed up on iTunes.  Now many albums have been left out, some have only a few tracks and some have two copies of some tracks as well as having other tracks missing.  I haven't begun to work on that.
