64 bit itunes installer
Hi I'm trying to install Itunes on my new computer and it will not allow me to install until I install the 64 bit itunes installer. Where do I get this?
I have just instaled a fresh copy of windows xp 64bit
There is no iTunes installer for XP64.
You will need to find instructions on the internet (not at Apple) to find out how to install the Vista 64 bit version of iTunes on XP64.

While installing latest version of iTunes error "This iTunes installer is intended for 32-bit versions of Windows. Please download and install the 64-bit iTunes installer instead" how to deal with it ?
Doublechecking. What's the filename of the installer you've been downloading? (The 32-bit installer is called iTunesSetup.exe, and the 64-bit installer is called iTunes64Setup.exe.)

How to reinstall 64 bit over 32 bit iTunes installation
Best as I can tell, Apple Software Update installed the wrong iTunes update on my system. I've been running the 64 bit version of iTunes since I got this system up and running (Win7 x64, Intel Core2Quad, etc).
Today, I elected to go ahead and let iTunes update. No worries, except now I've got iTunes running in 32 bit mode (and slowly at that).
Because my library is in excess of 90K songs, I'd sure like to get the little boost that running in 64 bit mode offered.No worries, except now I've got iTunes running in 32 bit mode (and slowly at that).
This is by design.
There is no "true" 64-bit version of the ITunes.exe - but this should not be a problem, my library is about 40K songs and ITunes is usually using not more than 150M of memory. As the adress space limit for a 32-bit process on a 64-bit system is 3 GB, this should give you plenty of headroom ...
What the 64-bit version adds are 64-bit device drivers. These are required as you cannot run 32-bit drivers on a 64-bit system.

When I try to download iTunes, I get error message indicating that the download program is for 32-bit, whereas I have 64-bit. How can I download 64-bit iTunes installer?
What version of windows do you have ? 64 bit only exists for Vista and Windows 7, not for XP (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1047)

Has anyone not been able to get the iTunes installer to load properly and get a message like this: This iTunes installer is intended for 32 bit versions of windows. Please download and install 64 bit iTunes installer instead. I have tried repeatedly to get this to load, I have uninstalled iTunes completely and reinstalled and still get the same message. I have windows XP and a brand new ipod touch which I am trying to load.
Yes, it's come up a number of times. If you look to the right under "more like this", you'll find threads that may offer useful suggestions.

I have been using iTunes 64-bit installer successfully since I first installed iTunes a year ago. However, since then I have been using the Apple Software Update program to install subsequent iTunes upgrade versions. Does this automatically detect my 64-bit iTunes install and download the correct 64-bit version of iTunes or do I need to manually select the 64-bit iTunes installer every time a new version of iTunes is released?
Thanks!The fix listed elsewhere on this community works - create another account - download itunes in that account and it works. Just have to navigate to the media folder so your music goes in.
Hope this helps -
I'm not sure if the error message is related but smart friend was using my computer started deleting Quicktime & Safari and told me that they shouldn't be on my computer as they are not windows product & I can't use them on my laptop. With trepidation but acknowledging I don't know any of the stuff they were talking about, I allowed them to raid my laptop thinking it could be for the best. Now I'm not sure if it is related or not but depsite me having the most recent Itunes updates on both my Ipod 4TH GT, I am getting the following message everytime I connect my Ipod to the computer...and the timing would be about right too:
this ipod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the Itunes installer to remove Itunes, then install the 64-bit version of Itunes.
If it helps I am running the 10.7.0.21 on the Sony Vaio & remember checking last week I do have the latest update on the Ipod but it is a different version from the Itunes on the laptop (which may be normal, I wouldn't know) but as I am away from home & Wifi I can't tell u the version on that though.
My problem is I cannot find an apple installer on the laptop to uninstall & I have searched Apple & Google for help and have seen others posts with the same issue but alot of the answers unfortunately I can't follow. I would greatly appreciate it if you can you answer any of these questions for me?
*Will add & remove totally uninstall Itunes so that I can reinstall?
*Will I lose my apps, music & data?
*If the apps, music & data is recoverable, how do I do that?
Sadly I can't find the installer & would love to add my new Mumford & Sons cd to my Ipod collection but don't know how to fix this. I love my Ipod & google but I have spent hours tryign updates, downloads, searches & feedback to Apple. A few months ago I had an Itunes billing problem & there was a webpage where you could email an apple support worker & rhe replied to my credit card problem within a day or 2 but I can't find that help for this problem..I couldn't express my graditude enough if you could help me with this, but thank you.dorygirl2009 wrote:

This "smart friend" really sounds like a collosal moron.
Follow the instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 to remove and reinstall all Apple products on your computer.
Once you get everything working, the next time your "smart friend" wants to touch your computer, tell them firmly NOT A CHANCE IN ****!
None of your data (media, podcasts, apps) will be affected by removing and reinstalling iTunes. -
I have a problem with connecting my iPhone to iTunes. I uninstalled one of the computer program and restart my laptop. After restart my laptop and a message said that iTunes might not working because one of the component is missing and request to reinstall the iTunes. Hence I remove iTunes from my laptop and I reinstall iTunes to my laptop but still not working.
Before this the iTunes will automatically launch when I plug in my iPhone. But after I reinstall iTunes, it's not working. When I try to plug in my iPhone after iTunes launched and message "This iPhone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes." popped out. I did this twice but it's not working as well.
Please advise what should I do to fix this.First make sue you are installing the 64 bit version of iTunes.
Second make sure it is iTunes 10.7 or later.
I would download a fresh copy of the 64 bit version of iTunes 11. After installation reboot your computer.
Before connecting your phone reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem. -
I have seen others post this same question but the answers provided does not resolve my problem. My iPad Air is running iOS 7.1.2. I have been using this same computer for three years. It has Windows 7 home premium, service pack 1, 64-bit Operating System, Intel 3.4GHZ computer and 16.0 GB . I used this same computer with my iPad2 for several years. I purchased an iPad Air a year ago. I never had a problem with either iPad using iTunes. About a week ago, my computer would no longer recognize the iPad Air. I thought it must be a driver problem or iTunes somehow became corrupted. I uninstalled all of the Apple products except for iCloud and deleted any Apple software left in my Program Files and Program Files (x86). I then downloaded from Apple, iTunes64Setup.exe which is a 110,833 KB program. I installed the program without a problem. It installed Bonjour, Apple Software Update, Apple Application Support and iTunes. These programs I had previously uninstalled. I then brought up iTunes. I now plugged in my iPad Air and a popup message appeared "This iPad cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes then install the 64-bit version of iTunes". OK, I did as instructed. I used the iTunes installer to remove iTunes then ran iTunes64Setup.exe. I brought up iTunes and got the same message. "This iPad cannot be used because the required software is nt installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes then install the 64-bit version of iTunes" In general, I have found the Apple software to be robust and reliable. This situation however is very disappointing. I am hoping that someone has an answer that I can use to resolve my problem.
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.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component, such as Apple Mobile Device Support, won't install normally.
In your case I suggest you start with a clean download of the setup file using the direct link. If reinstalling AMDS alone doesn't work try tearing everything down again.

I have the latest 64-bit version of iTunes on Windows 7 Ultimate. Everything was fine until recently. Now when I connect my iPod Touch to the USB to sync with iTunes, I get the following message: "This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes" I have removed, repaired, and installed the 64-bit version numerous times as well as disabled all antivirus / adware utilities. Same message appears when I plug in my iPod. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did you try removing and reinstalling all the Apple software using these instructions:

Hi. How come iTunes keeps saying:"this iPod can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64 bit version of iTunes?" Wth...i am using the 64 bit version of itunes. Why does it keep saying that? Will someone Help me please!? This is is getting frustrating. I already had done a full removal of everything! I even removed and deleted my library...then had to put all 500 songs back on one by one. So, i don't have to remove everything again, just to get my ipod to work on here. You, know before the itunes update, my ipod and itunes were working just fine.
wow, that was a quick reply. lol. but i have removed everything. I wasn't even able to get iTunes on my computer for a little while. i kept getting errors on that. Now it's saying that the required software isn't installed. Hmm, could it be referring to Apple Mobile Device Support? That is supposed to be installed with when iTunes gets installed right? I only ask, because that didn't get installed with the itunes setup.

I have a new iPod Touch 5th gen. My computer works on Windows 7. Latest ITunes gives me this message: "this ipod can't be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes then install the 64 bit version of iTunes." I have already removed and reinstalled a couple of times--making sure to remove all the related applications as well--Bonjour, Apple Software update, Apple Application Support. Help!
(apologies for barging in, lllass.)
Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
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/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS 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 AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, does your device connect without that message now? -
I received this errir msg when I wants to sync my 3gs iPhone. And I already update my iTunes to 64-bit. "This iPhone cannot be used because the required software is not installed.Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version itunes".
First make sue you are installing the 64 bit version of iTunes.

Run the Itunes installer to remove itunes, than install the 64-bit version of itines.) This just started a few weeks ago. I've done a system restore on my computer, deleated and reinstalled the 64-bit itunes several times, did a registery clean, rebooted. Nothing seems to work it will not pick up my phone.
