Hi
I've got a similar problem. iTunes v10.2 worked fine, but when I tried to update it to 10.5 I got a 'Bonjour' error. I eventually solved that but I still couldn't upgrade to 10.5, so I deleted every single Apple, Quicktime, iTunes, etc file on my PC using Revo Unistaller (because the normal Windows Add/Delete programs wouldn't work) but now, when I install the latest iTunes version from scratch (on XP SP3), it says: "the installer encountered errors before it could be configured.... your system has not been modified"
Any ideas?
Rick

When I try to download iTunes 10.5, I keep getting the message "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected." Therefore I can't update my iTunes to the new version. How can I solve this? I don't want to pay for technical support as this seems to be a problem with the iTunes package Apple is providing itself by that message.
Hello, hartadrian.
I would recommend attempting to repair the Apple Software Update via the steps below. Once processed attempt to download, update or install iTunes 11.

I have been unable to "update all" apps through my iphone and ipad. all my software is up todate, i have been to see numerous apple genious's and i even traveled to Cupertino to try and solve this issue. i am able to buy single songs, single apps, etc. the only Clue i can give that might have a relation to the issue is before the problem started, I was signing up for icloud and my itunes username totally disappeared from my devices. i was able to "resecure " the same username, but i think that somehow itunes to differentiating the two identical user names i had??? but as i said, i can still buy single apps, music, etc.

The details are listed in the question. However when I try to send an email message I get a message that says mail can't be sent but when I look in my sent file it shows the message sent.
yes it should be covered using 1 year warranty. You cant get refund unless you have some customer protection program. So call applecare, I dont know the number in the UK.

I have have an early 2008 imac 8,1 It has been a good machine no problems. UNTIL we downloaded Mt Lion. We can no longer use facetime. We click on the icon it comes up, tries to connect then it disappears with the message that there was a problem with the C_L Kernel Plugin. We can go on line without difficulty, everything else seems to be working. Searching the internet shows that others have had the same problem with Mt Lion. But so far I haven't found a solution. We have wiped the drive reloaded snow leopard then downloaded Mt Lion again. We put in a NEW hard drive and reloaded snow leopard then Mt Lion. We have changed out ram using apple ram. But we still get the same result. Everything works except for Facetime. Is there some patch we have missed? Facetime DOES work on our ipads without a hitch so I doubt it's the internet connection. We've tried the imac both wirelessly as the ipads run and hardwired and get no where fast. So any help at all would be appreciated. We live in the boonies, the nearest mac repair is over 150 miles away so this is pretty nuch a do it myself affair. We know the machine is old by most standards today. But we pretty much run our machines until they can't power up. So we'd like to get this one back on its perch so to speak with its face time working.
Thank you ahead of time for any advise help given.A log may help determine what the issue is ...

I was downloading the software update for ipod touch 2gen and after it was done downloading it showed that there was an error with my ipod and when i saw it was on the lockscreen loading. its been like this for 4 hours already
What did the error message say?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

When I try to update my apps, I keep getting the message that there is a problem with my billing information even though this is the billing information I have always used in purchasing my apps. What do I do?

I cancelled the update and my phone is fne. Has anyone else experience this? What is the cause/solution?
Yhanks!DON'T DO IT! Read the threads ... there is a MAJOR problem with updating iPhones 3GS/4 to iOS 5.
Take it to the Apple store and ask them to do it.
I repeat: DON'T DO IT YOURSELF.
