Apple Application Support Installation Error
So, while trying install iTunes, Apple Application Support wouldnt install. Then I tried to install by itself and it still didnt work.
The error code was:An error occured during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,type="win32",version="8.0.50727.6195",publicKeyToken="1fc8b 3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="X86"". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x80073712
Any suggestions to help me install it?
Hi
You are looking in the right place for solutions to this, b noir has been most involved.
There seem to be two main issues - failure of Windows Updates and the Visual C++ 2005 redistributable issue.
If you search the forum for redistributable limited to the user name b noir, you should find helpful material.
If your Windows updates are failing, you can search the Microsoft site for the error number, here is an example:

Apple Application Support Installation Error "8.0.microsoft.vc80.CRT"
When I tried to upgrade to the latest iTunes on my Vista system, I get the following: "error occurred during installation of assembly policy 8.0.microsoft.vc80.CRT." I have tried several suggestions on various threads here, including this one: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2251840&tstart=0&messageID=107 35122#10735122 all with no success.
I have used WinRar to open the iTunes installer to check each .msi, and it appears the culprit is Apple Application Support.
Looking at some of the other threads on this problem, it seems like the folooiwng information is needed: I am running Vista Ultimate (64-bit). The only update I've had fail recently and consistently is Update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 KB973688 with error code 643, but error code 80070003 when I downloaded it separately and tried to install. I currently have a copy of Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable and Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable (x64) on my installed programs list. Can provide more details, if needed.
I would appreciate any help. I am getting pretty close to thinking I need to go nuclear and re-install my OS.Hi

I have downloaded ITunes numerous times on my PC so I can sync with my Ipad and Iphone. I get "congratulations" you have downloaded ITunes followed by a message stating that apple application support is missing. Is there a way to download this as a stand alone?
Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
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/
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 AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -
Error in installing Apple Application Support preventing installation of iTunes, please help
I am trying to install iTunes for Windows (64 bit) but have been unsuccessful because I receive the following error message: "Microsoft.VC80.CRT,type+"win32",version="8.0.50727.6195"publicKeyToken="1fc8b3 b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="x86". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x80070BC9.
After receiving this error message the installation continues, but iTunes is never able to launch because it says that Apple Application Support is not installed. I have tried separately installing Apple Application Support only to receive the same error message as above. Please advise on how I can install iTunes properly or what this error message means.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 Apple Application Support won't install normally.

Have downloaded i Tunes 10.5.1.42 but get an error message on installation saying unable to write to CFNetwork.dll. This file is present in Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support which is where it should be....any ideas??
Is a copy of the CFNetwork file available for download if mine is corrupted?
Thanksget an error message on installation saying unable to write to CFNetwork.dll. This file is present in Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support which is where it should be....any ideas??
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards? -

Ok so I went to update my itunes 9 to itunes 10.5 and now I get and error message "Apple application support was not found" error 2 (windows error 2) when ever I try to run itunes and iv been trying to fix this for like a month and let me tell you iTunes for windows is **** and I really want Icloud for my iphone 4 and yes iv tried uninstalling everything by apple in the correct order and reinstalling them after restart atleast honestly 20 - 30 times but nothing worked so if anyone can please help me I have windows 7 and a hp intel pentium computer
Install 7-Zip (free), or a free trial of WinRAR, and use one of them to extract the contents of the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe installer file, then try installing AppleApplicationSupport.msi as a standalone component. Even if it won't install you may get a more useful error message as to why not.

I have instlled and uninstalled iTunes on multiple occasions but iTunes fails to start with message "Apple Application support is required to run iTunes .......... Error 2 (Windows error 2)". Most most frustrating. Can anyone help, pleeeeeeease!!
iTunes "Apple Application Support is required... Error 2" and possible fix.
Hi Redgilly (and others).
I just resolved this on Win Vista (should apply equally for Win7 too). Please uninstall iTunes before proceeding though. I'll walk you through the process I followed, if you like you can jump straight to the Solution section.
Problems:
The initial error during the installation of iTunes was:
An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.50727.4053",type="win32",publicKeyToken='1fc8b 3b9a1e18e3b",processorarchitecture="x86". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x8007054F
The error (after installing iTunes) when trying to run iTunes was:
Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again. Error 2 (Windows error 2).
After trying various fixes around the forums I came across this MSKB article, which relates to the first installation error:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2688946
This lead me to trying to install MS Visual C++ but I received the following error trying to install that:
Error 1935.An error occurred during the installation of assembly ‘Microsoft.VC80.ATL,type=”win32”,version=”8.0.50727.762”,publicKeyToken=”1fc8b3 b9a1e18e3b”,processorArchitecture=”amd64”’. Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x80070BC9. Assembly interface: IassemblyCacheItem, function: Commit, component: {837BF1EB-D770-94EB-A01F-C8B3B9A1E18E}
Note: The installation of VC++ rolls back when it fails.
Solution:
Through this error I found this MSKB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946414
The Automated MS "Fix It" msi package didn’t work.
Note: Please backup your registry first (see the above MSKB article for instructions).
I opened the registry and (as instructed in the MSKB article) deleted the following keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMPONENTS\
PendingXmlIdentifier

Reboot and reinstall iTunes.
I hope this helps. -
It says this when I try to open iTunes:
Apple Application Support was not found.
Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again.
Error 2
I've tried uninstalling it and installing it several times. I've tried to download Apple Application Support separately but it just says:
An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.50727.4... Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x800736FDYou have missing information in your Windows programming.
You need to repair your computer so it can run iTunes. If you plug those error codes into your browser you may get an answer. -
