Another one with iTune 9.2 issues

So I went to update my iPhone tonight, and received word from iTunes I needed to update to 9.2.1. Okay, easy right? HA! I have spent the last couple of hours trying to make it work, but as I've found here, I'm having issues like so many others.
The installation starts off fine until it gets to the end, then it 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 patch to a folder containing the installation package'iTunes.msi' in the box below."
I click on the arrow by the box and here are the two directory options:
C:\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple\Apple Software Update\
or
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple Computer\Installer Cache\iTunes 9.0.2.25
I looked in both of the listed options, and there's no iTunes.msi in either. Did a search on my computer and found:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application data\Apple Computer\Installer Cache\iTunes 9.0.3.15\iTunes.msi
So I click on that pathway, hit OK, and this comes up:
"The file is not a valid installation package for the produce iTunes. try to find the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in a folder from which you can install iTunes."
So I tried the 9.0.2.25 pathway option, and it says that doesn't exist. I look in the folder, and there's every other previous update folder in there, but not 9.0.2.25 at all.
I then try to remove iTunes completely, starting in the Control Panel, and it does the same thing, so I can't remove it that way. I tried the advice on the iTunes Support website, and it didn't work.
Do I have a missing file that I need in order to make this all work? Is it something else? Or is this whole 9.2.1 update screwed?
Any help would be appreciated!

The fix for years on this error used to be using the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility as mentioned in this older thread
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1184144
Unfortunately MS has pulled it from their website. So unless you are lucky enough to have downloaded that tool before it was pulled, you need a new plan.
Other folks have mentioned using a program named Revo Uninstaller with success, to do the same thing the MS tool was doing.
I wonder - can you browse in windows Explorer to this path and just double-click the itunes.msi file?
Don't go through the Apple Software Update, in other words. Run the MSI file directly.

  • I burned a playlist to a data CD using itunes 11 but what is best way to get it import it into another computer with itunes running?

    I burned a playlist to a data CD using itunes 11 but what is best way to get it import it into another computer with itunes running?  I get an "X" when trying to copy to the "automatically add to itunes" folder on the 2nd computer.

    ok... so i i just made sure all my music is all together in 1 folder and i am going to trash my old music folder that is in the itunes folder... and follow your directions - let itunes start w/new library and bring my music in. Well, last little hurdle/question. I noticed that the place where my itunes library is - on an external drive doesnt have much space left on it. The place where i gathered all my music together in order to start fresh - is a different external drive and has LOTS of free space on it.
    SO... i now would like to just keep all that freshly compiled clean music right where it is but in advanced preferences I want to point to that new folder on the drive that has so much more space. So... should i delete the old music then go into itunes with a blank library and change the folder in preferences - quit and go back in and then follow your steps to loading my music? If i change the setting of where itunes looks for the music - that doesn't wipe out the old stuff... it just mixes it all up together right? I dont want that!!
    i promise this is the last question - i would love to fix this problem tonight and just be DONE!
    Thanks in advance for your patience and knowledge!!

  • Just sent in daughter's Ipod touch 5th generation to be fixed....They sent me a new one....is there anyway to get the contents of her old one onto the new one?  I synced the old one with Itunes before I sent it in and backed it up on my computer.

    Sure, as soon as you open iTunes with the new iPod connected, it will have a "Welcome to your New iPod" screen. Just choose Restore from backup.

    If it's not too late, see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. As long as you have a backup of the device when the device still held your photos you should stand a chance of recovering them using a tool such as iPhone Backup Extractor.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you have been previously using iCloud with your old phone, then when you login to your iCloud account with your new phone all the data from the services you were using will be added to your new phone.

  • Using another computer with iTunes to charge iPod

    I have an 8gb 2nd gen ipod nano formatted for windows. Can I connect it to another windows computer and not have it automatically try to update and just charge it instead? Same goes for a mac? My music is on my desktop (PC) which is where I sync the ipod, but I also have a macbook and a sony laptop and I don't want my ipod to update with the music on the laptops. I just need to charge my ipod using the laptops.
    Thanks

    You can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes 7.3 installed hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys. On a Mac hold down the Option and Command (⌥ and ⌘ Apple) keys. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer: iTunes 7.3 Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows
    However the safest thing to do if you want to connect to multiple computers regularly is to change the update preference to "Manually manage music and videos":
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Managing content manually on iPod
    iPod 101: Fill 'er Up
    Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device. In that case use Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray on your desktop or check this link: Safely Disconnect IPod

  • What problems arise when syncing the iPad with another laptop with iTunes.

    I have to use another laptop to sync with iTunes for my iPad. What problems arise ie. do I lose my music?

    Sync with "new" computer
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/11527071#11527071
    1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.
    That should do it.

  • HT1391 How to move my media files to another drive with Itunes 11

    I am using Itunes 11 on a Windows 7 PC.  My C Drive is full and I am trying to move all my media files to D drive.  While previous versions of Itunes seem  to allow this, the instructions for doing so with Itunes 11 state that files already on the drive will stay where they are even if you change the location of the media file.  Only new files will move to the new location.

    About the iTunes library files
    Your iTunes library files track the media you add to iTunes, how you've organized it, and other information such as playlists. By default, these two files are in your iTunes folder:
    Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music/iTunes/
    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
    Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\
    Windows 7: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
    Windows 8: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\

  • Is there a way to un-sync my iPod from one computer and then sync it to another computer with iTunes without losing all my data or downloading software?

    Hi, I'm selling my current computer that my iPod is synced to and want to un-sync (I think the correct term of phase is) my iPod from my current computer, so i can then sync it to my new computer without downloading any software or deleting all my data. Is this possible? If so, please tell me how. As usual, any help would be helpful.

    Do this:
    - iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive
    - Then import into your new computer
    - Copy any synced photos to the new computer
    - Backup the ipd to the new computer
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup. The link directly above says how.

  • Another guy with jerky video dragging issues...

    I'm a longtime Premiere user but I'm new to Premiere Pro 2.0 so I'm sure that there's a million things I'm doing wrong with this version.
    I just finished working on a wedding for a friend and now that I've exported the video and burned it to DVD it appears like the TV can't keep up with the video.  If the camera/video is stationary then it's fine.  But if the video moves or pans to track something the picture drags badly.  The audio is just fine.
    The footage came from a Sony PD-150 (I know, I know... non-HD, but a prosumer grade camera... back in the day it was amazing) and a Canon DX20 (HD consumer-grade camera)
    My machine is fairly new (upgraded within the last 6 months) but is definitely not a blazing editting machine.  I'm also not really in the wedding video business anymore (as I'm sure you can tell by my camera selection) so I'm not really looking to spend a ton of money on hardware solutions.
    I'm just looking to figure out if this is something I can fix using what I have.  If it's impossible then I'll look for another solution.  I'm just such a big fan of Premiere 6 that I figured I'd give Premiere Pro 2.0 a try for those times that a friend would con me into videoing their wedding... that and Premiere 6 seemed to refuse to work with the footage from the Canon, even though it wasn't HD footage (wanted the Sony and Canon footage to look somewhat similar.)
    I'm taking a shot at fixing it by just exporting it with a higher FPS, although I know that's a shot in the dark.  I'd pull the specs on my computer, but it's currently chugging away and I don't really want to make the 12 hours 40 min 17 seconds that it's got left take any long than necessary.
    If you need any piece of information to offer any advice just let me know.  And if you want to tell me I'm a noobie or something along those lines then feel free.  I've been flamed enough times in enough online forums that it doesn't bother me anymore.
    Thanks in advance!

    My tests were run with PE4 (up to PE7 now) Projects, and PrPro2 Projects. PrPro2 will Open PE4 Projects, with some glitches. These were involving treatmensts, that did not appear in PrPro2. Still, they Opened. Trying to go the other way did not work. When trying to Open PrPro2 Project files in PE4, I got the error, "This project was created in Premiere Pro 2.0. Use that program to Open this project. What kind of fool are you?" [OK, that last line was added by me, but that was the tone of the message.]
    You can go one way (with some limitations), but not the other.
    Good luck,

  • Another one with broadband at dial-up speeds

    When I first connected to BT Broadband on Tuesday, all was well. Fast connection, good streaming.
    Now it is down to dial-up speeds:
    The results from BT Speedtest:
    Download speed achieved during the test was - 0.1 Mbps
    For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 0.05 Mbps-0.25 Mbps.
    Additional Information:
    Your DSL Connection Rate :3.97 Mbps(DOWN-STREAM), 0.45 Mbps(UP-STREAM)
    IP Profile for your line is - 0.14 Mbps
    Details from Router log:
    04:48:55, 26 Oct.    (60193.730000) DSL is up
    04:48:54, 26 Oct.    (60192.780000) DSL noise margin: 22.00 dB upstream, 8.80 dB downstream
    04:48:54, 26 Oct.    (60192.710000) DSL line rate: 448 Kbps upstream, 3968 Kbps downstream
    Running the "Silent LIne" test shows just that, silence.
    This is in a house with three phone sockets, none of them a master. (All old style BT sockets, all with a filter.)
    By contrast, I have another line running on the same cables from the same exchange that currently connects to the exchange at 7.87 and has an IP Profile of 6.5.
    How do I get BT to investigate this? How long before I need to cancel the contract on the grounds that it is not delivering its promised speed?
    I should add that the fast connection was made with an old Netgear router/modem, before the Home Hub arrived. I would swap that back in but the IP Profile is so low that it won't make any immediate difference.

    Nope. Too rural for LLU.
    SamKnows - Broadband Availability - Handcross (SDHNDCR) Exchange
    Look at all those lovely red crosses. Last time anyone opened the door there to add anything seems to have been back in 2006.
    Not rural enough, though, for any of those government sponsored broadband programmes.
    Actually, I am amazed that TalkTalk can deliver a connection that is usually rock solid at speeds of up to 6 Mbps. The only problem is that when more than two people are on line, it slows to a crawl. That is one reason why I wanted to take up BT's seemingly generous offer.
    But thanks all the same for the feedback and for the depressing news that BT is even worse than TalkTalk at dealing with customers. Guess I will just have to sit on my hands for another five days.
