Update them to what?
Are they not correct as purchased from iTunes?

Itunes wont update, uninstall or reinstall

so everything was fine, i had my iphone 4s and my sony vaoi laptop and then one day it tells me to update my itunes. so thats what i did, it was running the install and then a error came up saying that 'The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that it unavailable' then underneath it gave me the option to go browse for where it was. it seemed to have disappeared only when the installation came about because when i quit it i found it in the exact same place that i looked when it gave me the option to 'browse'. for a month this was going on and i tried to fix it every time it offered me the installation but then it said my iphone couldnt connect to itunes anymore because itunes is not updated but how the heck do they expect me to upddate it when it just disappears?! i havent been able to update music on my phone anymore which is very annoying because that is one of the main reasons i got my iphone4s. then i looked up my problem on the internet and this person gave me a link and said uninstall itunes and reinstall it. it was called 'revo pro uninstaller' i thought it was going to work because it said it had uninstall everything to do with apple so i shut down my laptop to leave it rest. i opened it up the following day and there apple was again. for days i tried to uninstall everything to do with apple but it just wont go away. the same message as 'The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that it unavailable' then underneath it gave me the option to go browse for where it was' and then it said 'the older version of itunes wont uninstall please contact your technical support group' when i tried to uninstall it or reinstall it on my laptop. to be honest apple, samsung are looking alot of a heck better. i have never been so annoyed with a company in my life. please get your act together.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

ITunes wont update.

It worked perfectly fine, then problems started to arise. I tried to use the icon to open it and it said; This action is only valid for products that are currently installed. So i went to start, run, and typed in iTunes and it opened fine. If i go to update it, It starts to install and then encounters a problem; 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. i hit ok, it rolls back and it starts something else. The status goes to Removing applications then says; The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in the box below.
If i try to uninstall it it says that its not installed and if i try to install it it says that i have to uninstall it first.
I just recently got the new ipod nano (an upgrade from the old one) and i need to update my itunes before i can sync it up. Please help i miss my music =[

With that complex of symptoms, let's try the following procedure.
First, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. If it goes, good. If it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to iTunes.
Next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
Now launch Windows Installer CleanUp ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"), find any iTunes and/or QuickTime entries in the list of programs in CleanUp, select those entries, and click “remove”.
Next, we'll manually remove any leftover iTunes or QuickTime program files:
(1) Open Local Disk (C:) in Computer or whichever disk programs are installed on.
(2) Open the Program Files folder.
(3) Right-click the iTunes folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion.
(4) Right-click the QuickTime folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. (Note: This folder may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
(5) Delete the QuickTime and QuicktimeVR files located in the C:\Windows\system32\ folder. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue. (Note: These files may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
(6) Right-click on the Recycle Bin and on the shortcut menu, click Empty Recycle Bin.
(7) Restart your computer.
Now try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly now?

After transferring my music from one PC to another ITunes wont let me add music to my iPhone, why?

iTunes wants to delete all my music on my iPhone and replace it. That includes playlists I have created. I have authorized my iPhone 4 for use on the new computer. Why is this process so painful? how can I stop this process from occurring and why can't after authorization can I not just carry on as I did on my old PC? Thank you for any assistance.

May be asking the obvious here - but on your new pc, whenyou have installed iTunes - do you have the exact same playlist in your new pc iTunes library? It may simply be that your iphone is synched with "another" iTunes Library and doesnt recognise the new pc iTunes library - ...if you have the exact same library and playlist in the new pc this should not be a problem. However, if you want to extract all your playlists/ music etc from your phone to be loaded into your new library - or even as a backup just in case, use free software from www.getshareipod.com - its absolutely brilliant for ripping your content out of a phone/ ipod for you to copy to other devices or import back into a new iTunes library...have used it to extract 2Gb of music out of an old iPod for consolidation into my new iTunes library....Good luck!!
