1607:Unable to install InstallShield scripting runtime

I can't install iTunes, I get the error message saying:
1607:Unable to install InstallShield scripting runtime.
Need help... PLEASEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

Hi iFriend,
try this, it worked for me:
1) first of all, uninstall QuickTime and older versions of iTunes from your PC, using the "remove" button in the "install applications" tool that you find in the windows control panel.
2) reboot the system
3) turn off the windows firewall application; go into the windows control panel, double click on windows firewall and disable the firewall option
4) if you have one, disable your Anti-Virus application; i mean its real-time protection.
5) probably it's not necessary, but for being sure... download and launch the standalone installer of QuickTime (latest version)
6) download and launch the iTunes + QuickTime installer from this web address
7) as an option, i suggest you to download and install also iTunes Art Importer. It's a nice application, that allows you to import from the internet directly into iTunes the album ArtWorks of the selected tracks in iTunes. I installed it, and it works very well with iTunes 6.
8) after all the installations, remember to enable both firewall and anti-virus previously disabled!
as i said, probably the 5th passage is not necessary, but i did it and it worked!
if you have any questions or feedbacks, just relpy to this topic. stay iTuned!
bye, bye,

Issue with DI API : 1607 unable to install installshield Scripting Runtime

Hello,
I'm trying to reinstall my DI API but it fails due to this error message.
Any idea ?
Thanks
Stéphane

Steph,
I solved that by downloading the latest MSI from window and re-installing my Microsoft Installer. I admit it was not linked to the DI installation at that time but...
Check http://support.microsoft.com/kb/888019 maybe it can help as well?
Cheers

"1607: Unable to install InstallShiled Scripting Runtime"

i had iTunes 5 for awhile because the newer version had bugs in it. I tried to update to iTunes 6 and installation froze while downloading the Quicktime portion. I tried installing iTunes 6 again but the error "1607: Unable to install InstallShiled Scripting Runtime" came up. I tried to uninstall iTunes completely but i could not find it on add/remove programs. Now I cant use iTunes or update my iPod.

hi indolence!
"iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
ouch. by any chance did you do a System restore "over top" of the date of a fresh itunes install, without uninstalling itunes/QT first? that's a known cause of that error message ... what the system restore does is strip out some of the installation registry entries for the recent install. here's a good reference on what system restore does and doesn't do for you:
(MS) Frequently Asked Questions Regarding System Restore in Windows XP
it would probably also be a good idea to head to Windows update if you did a system restore, to make sure you're still thoroughly up to date in that regard. (the restore may have stripped out recent updates.)
Microsoft Windows Update
the "hang" during the QT install has sometimes been caused by having Cygwin running during the install:
iTunes 5 and QuickTime 7 for Windows: Installation won't work if Cygwin is running
... but other packages have also been implicated in this sort of thing. so prior to any installs, uninstalls or upgrades, it would be prudent in your case to switch off all background applications (including "terminate-and-stay-resident" applications):
Close Applications Running in the Background
to set up for the next attempt at an itunes install, it would be best to first uninstall your existing itunes/QT. use the complete uninstall instructions given here:
Troubleshooting iTunes, iPod Software, and QuickTime installation on Windows
if you run into trouble on the uninstall, try using the Windows Installer Cleanup utility:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
once you've got everything stripped out, try downloading and saving the itunes installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.)
iTunes 6.0.1.3 Installer
if you run into the the 1607, try the general and 1607-specific advice given in this document:
Troubleshooting iTunes, iPod Software, and QuickTime installation on Windows
... and if the problem persists, try augmenting that advice with the InstallShield Tips and Pointers:

Hi!
What you did is correct,
To install odbc you just have to copy the files inside instantclient-odbc-windows.x64-11.2.0.3.0.zip to C:\OracleClient64 as you already did.
When you run odbc_install.exe it popup a cmd prompt for very short period of time. It´s fine.
What it does is to create the values you saw in the registry, an thats why if you run it a second time it said that already exist. With that, you have installed odbc, now you can test it following this link:

Hope it helps

Unable to install apps... help me overcome these obstacles:

I live in Japan.
I got an Original iPad 1.
I want to choose an English-only environment (OS, apps, messages), so I set the device language as well as tehe preferred language of my new created Apple ID to "English".
Now when I try to install apps, the following obstacles are holding me back:
1.
Wen I tap the "Store" icon, I land in a japanese store environment.
Question: How can I get to an English language app store environment, where I can get free English language apps, or purchase English language apps provided by developers who don't oppose to sell their English apps to a person whonlives in Japan and whose credit card is based in Japan?
2.
When I try to install some very simple app from the japanese app store (f. ex. a simple crossword game) I am requested to sign in with my Apple ID.
But when I enter my ID and Password, I am faced with the following procedure:
A first message (in Japanese!) states that something is "missing" (as far as I can understand it), and my only two options are: (1.)abort the procedure or (2)tap on a button labeled "review" (in Japanese).
NAturally, I choose the second option, and tap on the button labelled "review". But then I am faced with a message stating something in Japanese. As far as I can understand it, it states that I have to update the iOS. Again, my only choices are "Update" or abort the procedure, so I choose "Update". But after tapping the "Update" button, I am sent back to the description of the app I was trying to install. When I try again tapping the button labelled "Free" (in Japanese), I am asked to sign in again, and the same loop repeats.
(By the way, my device's iOS is updated to version 5.1.1 and cannot be further updated, according to a message in the Settings Menu.)
Question: Is it possible to install some apps with English User Interface to my device (free apps and/or pay apps)? -And, if positive... How?
Thankful for any help!

Unable to install Leopard... help?

It's my 4th time trying to install Leopard on my Imac G5.
When i put the DVD in and choose the restart option as stated, the computer restars but i never get to see the intall screen. It stays on the apple grey screen and nothing happens...
I have to restart and hold the eject key to be able to get the DVD out...
Once the DVD is out, my computer works just fine, but as soon as i start the installation process again, the same problems happen.
Anyone had the same problem?
thanks

I understand your need to preserve your applications and files. Formatting always takes up so much time. However, when troubleshooting, it does eliminate your pre-installed stuff as a source of the problem.
Another alternative would be to do an archive and install. That will at least keep your applications and files. Needless to say, you should have a backup of everything, so you should be prepared for everything on your boot drive.

Adobe flash 10.3 unable to install on mozilla please help

having problem to install on mozilla browser adobe flash player 10.3. Please send me instructions.

This page should show your current exact version number, and if it doesn't match the latest available, you can use the Player Download Center link on the second paragraph:

Adobe's site will always try to offer the player for your current browser, but you can use the "Different operating system or browser?" link if necessary to get one that is for Firefox ("other browsers").

Installation error 1607: InstallSheet Scripting Runtime cannot be insalled

I was installing the upgrade 6.0.5 and it got stuck when installing the quicktime part so that I had to terminate the process. When I try to install again I get the error message: Installation error 1607: InstallSheet Scripting Runtime cannot be insalled. What can I do ?

Thanks for your suggestions; they helped me get further along in the resolution of my problem, but did not get me completely there.
I, too, have experienced the same problem tonight the OP had. Earlier tonight (before viewing this thread), I tried installing the latest update to Quick Time and was unable to complete it due to a problem, apparently, with InstallShield. The error message read "1607: Unable to install InstallShield scripting runtime." I found this thread and did as you suggested. I de-activated my firewall (Zone Alarm) and anti-virus (AVG) programs and installed the update, through the address you posted, to my desktop. When I opened the install, the install progressed somewhat further than earlier installs tonight, but then got hung up and the same message appeared. I would greatly appreciate any other suggestions or advice you or anyone else may have so I can resolve this problem. Thanks!

Itunes 6.01, unable to install

Just got a prompt to update to itunes 6.01. I was hoping it was the patch for all the problems we've been having, but when I downloaded it, I got the following message:
Error 1607: Unable to install InstallShield Scripting Runtime.
Anybody else get this. Any idea what it means?

Tanya, I'm not sure about the error 1607 message but I do know I had problems downloading any iPod or iTunes software until I changed the Microsoft Explorer security setting. You need to add the download site to your safe sites for your browser.

Help installing itunes Scripts?

hi all..
Can anyone help me installing itunes scripts to help with bulk duplicates removal?
Thanks,
Brook

hiya!
When i click on itunes to install it, it says that there is insufficient space in the system drive to install it. also says it requires 100gb to do it.
that's ultrakinky. itunes program file sizes total somewhere in the tens of megabytes ranges.
let's try getting a installer log to the Discussions Hosts, so they can throw it over the fence so an Apple engineer can have a look at it.
Start menu -> Run... In the text field of the dialog that comes up, type in "cmd" and hit return.
In the command prompt dialog that comes up, find the iTunes installer on your desktop and drag it to this window. Then on the same line type in a space and then the following:
/Verbose"c:\log.txt" /V"ENABLE_QTLOGGING=TRUE"
There is no space between the e in Verbose and the double quote ("). There is no space between the V"Enable...
Hit return.
The installer will create two log files:
C:\log.txt and C:\qt.log
Find those files and send them to a Discussions Host Put the URL to this discussion thread into the email, so that whoever gets it has some context. Let them know the version of itunes you’re trying to install, too … in general, give as much info as you can.
