Apple Software Updater On 64-Bit

I run QuickTime Player and Apple Software Updater on a Windows 7 64-bit system.  My problem echoes those recent postings under the Windows topic.  Yesterday, while runing the updater, I kept getting a blank program box.  Usually it shows what is available in addition to detecting updates for what one has.  Yesterday this page was not available; so I uninstalled both QuickTime and the Updater so I could reinstall them new.  The Repair feature in Add/Remove Programs already failed to fix the problem.  The reinstallation did not work either.  The discovery of this problem is disappointing because this aspect of Apple's Windows software was efficient to the extent that sometimes it was the only way to install an update.  Still, I can use QuickTime to detect its available updates; but can we expect Apple to fix this problem?

SOLVED IT
Right click on Apple Software Update in the Start Menu and bring up the Properties Window
Select the Security tab
Select your Username (don't worry about what rights the computer Administrators group has, it does not apply here) and select Edit
After you pressed Edit, you should have a Window that shows all the computer groups (Administrators, etc.) and usernames (yours and other users (if any)) on your computer. Select yours.
Change your Rights to Full Control, press OK.
Press Apply, applying the changed settings to Apple Software Update, then press OK to close the Properties Window.
You can now run Apple Software Update and see what programs (updates) there are to download. For some reason, the latest update which came down gave the computer user (in this case, you--meaning pitiful us) no rights other than deleting. This meant that we could not see anything--no updates, nothing. What we just did through this list was give the ability back to the user.

  • BUG: Apple Software Update installs 32-bit iTunes 8 on 64-bit Systems

    Hi, all! Jon here. Just wanted to point out that when Apple Software Update updated my iTunes from 7 to 8, it installed the 32-bit version on my 64-bit OS, and so when it finished and I opened up iTunes, I got a message that it wasn't compatible with my operating system, and therefore I had to go to Apple's website and download iTunes again myself. I think ASU should check to see which operating system the user is using and download the correct program accordingly.

  • Will Apple Software Update update a 64 bit version of iTunes

    On 64 bit Windows 7, will Apple Software Update update a 64 bit installation of iTunes, Bonjour, and Apple Mobile Support to a new 64 bit version of the software when a new version comes out or will it try to install pure 32 bit versions of the software when I use Apple Software Update.
    Basically, is Apple Software Update smart enough to realize that the version of Windows 7 I am using is 64 bit and that I used the 64 bit package to install iTunes, Bonjour, and Apple Mobile Support, etc originally. I know that the software is not entirely 64 bit, but I would like to keep the parts that are.
    Thanks.

    The answer is "yes, ASU does download the 64-bit stuff on a 64-bit PC".
    I uninstalled iTunes, BonJour and Apple Mobile Device Support (all of which have at least some 64-bit componentry) on the 64-bit Vista system. Did an "iTunes + QuickTime 9.0.3" install via ASU. The 64-bit pieces were all in place after the ASU update. (AMDS program files, iTunes miniplayer stuff, iPod Service Module, 64-bit BonJour namespace provider, and so forth.)

  • I can't uninstall Apple Software Update.

    In trying to uninstall ITunes, I was given a checklist from Apple Support to uninstall certain programs in a specific order. I need to reinstall ITunes, and they said that I needed to remove it first. I am running a Windows 7, 64 bit HP laptop. No program is removing this and it very specifically says to not remove them out of order.
    Below are the instructions sent to me. (I tried to copy and paste. However, it doesn't look good, so I will include the link that Apple sent to me.)
    Can someone please help?

    If you're running Windows XP, see Removing and Reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows XP.
    Media you've bought from the iTunes Store or songs you've imported from CDs are saved in your My Music folder by default. They won't be deleted by removing iTunes. Although it's highly unlikely that you'll lose any of your iTunes Library when following the steps below, first make sure that your iTunes library is backed up. See iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive for more information.
    If you have issues installing iTunes, try the options outlined in Issues installing iTunes for Windows.

    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 the 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.
    If the advice above doesn't resolve things you could try this alternate version:
    iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
    which is a 64-bit installer for the 32-bit version of the core application, similar to previous 64-bit releases. Or roll back to the previous build:
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)

  • Okay since last apple software update my safari will not open youtube,yahoo or google

    Okay since last apple software update my safari will not open youtube,yahoo or google, an error message comes up saying safari cannot connect to the server.  Can anyone help me with this please?

    Hi Joshua ..
    Check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode  is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    If that wasn't the issue, try using OpenDNS.
    Use OpenDNS for better speed, more security, prevents the, "can't connect to server" issue, includes anti phishing filters, prevents browser re directs, and it's free.
    Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.

  • IPod only recognized as digital camera / Apple Software Update unable to be uninstalled

    This may sound like a common problem, but I've done a LOT of work trying to fix it based on online searches. With no avail, I think this problem can't be easily fixed.
    As the question states, the initial problem is that my iPod Touch (1st gen I think, maybe 2nd gen, iOS 3.1.3) wasn't recognized by iTunes as an iPod, but only as a digital camera (Windows 7, 64-bit). At first I was content because I didn't have extra songs I wanted to add. But then when I cleared the RAM one day, the iPod restarted with the USB/Connect to iTunes screen. Finally, I had no choice but to try to fix the iTunes problem. So, as most people suggest first, I tried to update iTunes.
    Unfortunately iTunes was unable to update. There was a rolling back error, that I traced to Apple Mobile Device Software by using the Command Prompt and logging the install log. Apparently, iTunes didn't have sufficient permission by Windows to delete the necessary files. I even uninstalled iTunes to try to reinstall it, but it didn't reinstall, leaving me with no iTunes at all.
    Then I extracted AMDS installer from the iTunes installation package and logged that installation process to find errors. According to an online source, the driver was blank, so I first tried using pnputil.exe in cmd to remove the Apple driver package. This failed, so I manually went into C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository to find the driver to delete it so it could reinstall. Unfortunately, it still wouldn't install.
    In addition, I changed the ownership of ProgramData, Program Files, and Program Files (x86) in the C:\ disk to Administrator instead of SYSTEM and gave full permission to myself (the administrator) and "TrustedInstaller." A risky move, I know, but I was desperate. I had hoped that this would give permission to iTunes to modify what it needed to modify, but this still didn't work.
    Thus, I tried to remove all traces of Apple software that related to iTunes manually. This involved the Apple files in ProgramData, Program Files\Common Files, and Program Files (x86)\Common Files. Then I tried to uninstall the list of programs related to iTunes (Bonjour, QuickTime, etc). However, Apple Software Update refused to uninstall and gave an error "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program reuired for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor." I fear in my deletion of files, I might have deleted something necessary for this uninstall.
    I downloaded multiple forced uninstallers, but none of them worked - the same message showed up constantly. I went into the registry key to see if I could manually uninstall Apple Software Update, but this didn't seem to work either. I was too afraid to delete anymore files...
    So here I am again, having walked in a complete circle in this extremely complicated situation. The files I deleted in my first attempt at a solution ended up hindering a possible actual solution. Any ideas to uninstall Apple Software Update, or to solve iTunes rolling back error, or to remove the connect to iTunes screen from my iPod would be greatly greatly greatly appreciated. I can live without iTunes, but my iPod is very important to me. If anyone has a solution to remove the screen without connected to iTunes, or connecting to a different computer's iTunes, I would be willing to take that course of action too.
    Thanks!

  • Can't install iTunes or uninstall Apple software updater.

    When trying to upgrace iTunes on my Windows 7, 32-bit machine, I receive the following error message: “There is a problem with the Windows Installer package. A program required for this install could not be run.” I tried uninstalling all appple products (in the correct order), but the Apple software updater won't uninstall; when trying ot uninstall it I get the same message I get when trying ot upgrade iTunes. Any ideas?

    Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
    http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
    Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.

  • Cannot install iTunes 10.7 on Windows 7. Getting "a program required for this install could not be run"--Apple Software Update is not installed, so updating it is not a possible solution.

    I was following the process of unistalling all Apple software and reinstalling iTunes. But I am getting an error that says "a program required for this install could not be run."
    Other threads recommend updating the Apple Software Update module, but that was uninstalled. So if it's part of the problem, updating it is not a solution.
    Windows 7, 64-bit, SP 1 installed.

    For what it's worth, at the point the installation fails, Bonjour, Apple Application Support, and Apple Mobile Device Support all show as installed on Control Panel. Apple Software Update has a link on the Start Menu but does NOT show as installed on Control Panel. Is there a way to install this separately from iTunes?

  • TA24326 How do you repair Apple Software Update in Windows 7?

    When I open iTunes it says a new version (10.6.3) is available, and I click on "download" but nothing happens.  I then go to Apple Software Update and no updates are found.

    After a month of waiting & having same problem as you, today when I turned on my computer an Apple Software Update appeared right on my desktop telling me to download the new update.  I did & it downloaded just fine.  I assume it should be coming to your computer soon also.
    Yeah ... it's a bit "patchy" though, Sassy. It can come right for some people and yet not for others ... and there's been a few reports in some of the bigger threads of it coming right for some folks and then going silly again (for the same folks).
    A good rule of thumb with this one is that if you do get a "window" where ASU seems to work fine, get as many updates done as you can (just in case the window closes again).

  • Same updates repeatedly offered by Apple Software Update in Windows 7

  • Iphoto and Itunes not responding after an Apple Software Update

    Hi
    Afew days ago I did the Apple Software Update and since then I haven't been able to get onto my Itunes or Iphoto, both of which I use quite often. Itunes just doesn't load at all and Iphoto starts to open the page but then that multicoloured ball appears and it doesn't respond. I am just wondering why this is happening and whether it's happened to anyone else at all? Ideally I'd like to get rid of this new update but don't know how to go about it. I'm a bit of a computer dunce so if you could offer any solution in a straightforward way I would be so grateful. Thanks!

    created a new user account and the same problem arose there as well.
    Then you need to re-install iPhoto:
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applcations Folder to the trash)
    2. Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only...’
    This process will not affect your Library of photos. However: Always back up before an operation like this.
