After multiple attempts to install Itunes 11 without problems I finally got it to work

About a month ago when updating to Itunes 11, I started getting errors that would not allow me to Install the update and then when I did the program crashed when trying to open. After multiple removing/installing all the apple software per instructions found in these communities I finally came upon a solution that worked. After getting itunes to install but getting a error when I clicked on the icon to open Itunes, below is the steps I found on another web site that actually WORKED and was able to update to new/greatest version and Itunes actually opened correctly when I clicked the icon. HERE is what worked!!....
Highlight all of the following 10 lines of text that begin with regsvr32 and then choose Copy from the Edit menu of your web browser:
regsvr32 /s softpub.dll
regsvr32 /s wintrust.dll
regsvr32 /s dssenh.dll
regsvr32 /s rsaenh.dll
regsvr32 /s gpkcsp.dll
regsvr32 /s sccbase.dll
regsvr32 /s slbcsp.dll
regsvr32 /s mssip32.dll
regsvr32 /s cryptdlg.dll
regsvr32 /s initpki.dll
Open the Notepad program by navigating to:
Start > All Programs > Accessories > Notepad
In Notepad, choose Paste from the Edit menu. Note: make sure that the text that appears in Notepad is the same as what is shown above.
From the File menu, choose Save As.
In the File name field type appleipod.bat and save the file to the Desktop.
Close Notepad and locate the appleipod.bat file.
Double-click the file and you will see a black window appear on the screen for about a minute. Wait until the window automatically disappears and proceed to the next step.
The appleipod.bat file can be deleted at this time.
Hope this helps!

Hi , There are two very informative Mac threads that you may want to refer to. There really is nothing that I can add to them.
I don't know if they are still on Page 1 but if not try Page 2.
Thanks,

I have an older iPod (2005). After years of inactivity I tried to install the cd on my PC. I get the following error message, after several attempts to install: iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please re install iTunes.

Did you follow the exact instructions in this Apple support document to remove and re-install iTunes and ALL other Apple software on your XP machine?

I have installed ios7 on my iPad 4. After installation it asked me pass code which I have never set. After multiple attempts it is disabled. I don't have backup on my iCloud or iTunes. Is there anyone who can help to enable it or to reverse iPad to ios6.

Is there anyone who can help to enable it or to reverse iPad to ios6. I asked Apple store & tech said to format it but I will lose all the data..!

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

I have attempted to install iTunes multiple times but to no avail. I have installed every file, and followed every instruction on the support pages. I click download, and it takes me directly to the "Thank You for Downloading" page without doing anything.

I have attempted to install iTunes multiple times but to no avail. I have installed every file, and followed every instruction on the support pages. I click download, and it takes me directly to the "Thank You for Downloading" page without doing anything. I am running it on FireFox, and I have tried with Internet Explorer, neither have worked. I have been trying to do this for weeks now, and I am getting majorly frustrated. Please, help.

Perhaps try downloading and saving a copy of the installer to a different PC. (If you're on a 32-bit Windows system, try to download on a different 32-bit Windows system.) Copy the iTunesSetup.exe installer to an external hard-drive, or a large-enough thumb drive or burn it to a CD-R. Carry the installer back to your PC, copy the installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install from the ExHD, thumb or CD-R.) Start the install by doubleclicking the iTunesSetup.exe file.

On every attempt to install Itunes I've recieved the error message, "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." What do?

I know there's a million threads like this, but I thought I'd record my experience. I, too, was having the original poster's error when I tried to update iTunes on Windows XP. I think I was stuck on 10.
I solved it by un-installing iTunes and every other Apple app. I discovered that Apple Software Update would not un-install as its MSI file could not be found. I used the "Windows Install Cleanup" tool from Microsoft to remove Apple Software Update from the list of installed programs. Google "kb290301" for a Microsoft page that includes a download link for it. After that, I was able to install a fresh copy of iTunes 10.5.2.
I'm not sure why this app's folder and MSI were missing from my computer. I had once used Laplink PC Mover to move everything from my old computer to this one, and perhaps it missed a bit.

My daughter has put a passcode on her dads iphone 4s and cant remember it and after multiple attempts it is now in "connect to itunes. My husband does not want to lose the photos on it. Is there a way to get photos off before restoring

If that phone has been synced in iTunes, you can restore from the backup after having restored the phone.
There is also a little mac app that can read the iPhone backups that are in iTunes,called ibackupviewer.
Then when there is no backup of the iPhone: read the following aricle:

Install itunes without bonjour or apple mobile device support

For my company having bonjour is not an option and is considered a security threat,even after uninstalling bonjour it still appears in the registry. Therefore it was nessesary to put on our company server the msi file for itunes.
To install itunes WITHOUT bonjour:
1.) Download the itunes setup exe file.
2.) Download 7-zip or winrar, and install.
3.) Right click the exe file and extract the files.
4.) Delete bonjour and or mobile device support (if you perfer not to have an iphone service running all the time)
5.) Run the extracted itunes.msi file.
Now the only service that will be installed is the ipod service, which is better than having 3 services just to put songs on your ipod.

Someone may have a brainwave at Apple and give people a choice on what iTunes installs with an optional gui installer. I'm getting fed up with installing software that constantly want to put other unnecessary products on my system.
I always try yo install using a custom install (where I can) option as opposed to "Express Setup" or "Typical Install" because invarably they come with a "very useful" toolbar or default search engine.
I do not want to install Safari an my machine, in fact I would go so far as to say I will never install it on principle. Everytime the iTunes update window comes up, the option to install Safari is automatically ticked, I find this grossly offensive and arrogant by Apple.

Attempting to install iTunes Version 10.5 and getting Invalid Signature. Can someone please help???

I am attempting to install iTunes Version 10.5. I am getting the following messages...
"Files shared by these updates" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed.
"iTunes" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed.
"Safari 5" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed.
I somehow got around this annoying "invalid signature" problem before by installing the iTunes update through the Apple site.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
When I tried that, now I get...
"The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured. Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified. Please run the installer again, or click Finish to Exit"
All this to get the latest iPhone software. And every blessed time I go to Sync my iPhone, I run into iTunes issue on my Dell PC here. I guess PC and Mac just cannot play well together.
Can someone PLEASE help me out here???
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi. I also had this problem when trying to connect a new iPhone 4S & it needed iTunes 10.5. Went to the Apple website as update section of iTunes was not getting any luck - went to downloads section of Apple website & downloaded the whole iTunes 10.5 program as though I did not have it in the first place (& also downloaded the programs for Quicktime 7.7.1 & Safari 4.0.3) ie not just the upgrades. I created a restore point in my Windows XP in case it all went pear shaped & then went ahead & installed all 3 programs. Opened iTunes at the end & all my music, apps, movies were all still there & now the new iPhone 4S works perfectly with the iTunes. Hope this helps.

How to install itunes without cd/dvd rom support?

Hi,
Everybody knows when you install iTunes to any windows device, you will have a problem with your dvdrw afterwards. Till day, every installation i made end up with losing my dvd-rom.
There is 3 solution to this problem, but those solutions never worked for me and last time i used my company notebook without it's dvdrom for over a year.
Now, i reinstall my notebook with Windows 8.1 Update 1 and i want to install iTunes for my music but i can' let iTunes do the same thing again.
Is there anyway install iTunes without cd-dvd 3rd party/usb/firmware driver support?
I search on net and i found this link but it's way too old
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA44491?viewlocale=en_US

QuickTime is required for iTunes to run. You can think of iTunes as a media manager "front end" to QuickTime which handles the actual playing of the media.
Safari was an optional install when I installed iTunes on my Windows system. I wasn't forced to install Safari. MobileMe is also no longer automatically installed, though it will update if it finds an existing installation. I didn't get it forced on me when I installed on my Vista system.

One tip: it will pay better dividends if you avoid ranting. Apple won't see your rants (except to delete them) and we, your fellow users who are with rare exceptions the only ones participating here, don't really want to be yelled at.

Copy all the content on your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes. Then go ahead and sync the iPod with your new library.

Thanks, but since iTunes will not boot, I cannot run that iTunes diagnostic. Just need to know how to reinstall iTunes (Windows XP). Do I need to remove the existing non working version of iTunes, or can I just install iTunes from Apple like I was a new user?
