Can't install iTunes 6.0.2.23 and can't uninstall QuickTime

help!!! i can't uninstall quicktime 7.0.2 (tried from control panel), which was included in my pc when i bought it, in order to install the newest version of itunes/quicktime. i would try lorraine's fix but can't even manually uninstall qt. got an error message "cannot delet file: cannot read from source file or disk". old version of itunes is gone, couldn't reinstall qt 7.0.2 (to try & repair), and remove apple itunes from NIS. i'd be grateful for any help.

HELP!!! this is driving me crazy...does anybody know how to fix this problem. how do i uninstall old version of QT in order to upgrade to the stand alone QuickTime and newest version of iTunes? I've already tried to manually delete the QT files and folders but got an error message. This totally *****! Both Apple & Windows support are pointing to each other for fixes.

  • Can't Install iTunes 8.1...and i have tried everything!

    Hi Guys,
    I received my new iPod Nano this morning and was informed by iTunes that i had to install a newer version of the software (8.0 or later) to use it! I was running 7.5 before i think...
    After having several problems installing i kept getting the installsheild errors so i removed ALL apple products and re-installed Quicktime 7.5, then went to go for iTunes (as the combined package wouldn't work)!
    It got 99% of the way through and threw up the Isscript.msi error message - so i downloaded the version 8 and 11 .msi files as i was informed on another thread and tried again!
    No Luck!
    I have no idea what to do...this Isscript.msi error is just the most frustrating thing in the world!
    Any help would be appreciated guys!

  • HT2688 Can I install iTunes on an external drive and store my music there?

    I am trying to figure out the best way to manage my music.  600 cds that I need to upload somewhere.  I am thinking I put them in itunes and then bluetooth them to a wireless speaker.    My old school stereo needs to go but I am not sure where to begin?  Help?

    iTunes, like any other program installed on a computer is only installed on the main (typically C) drive.
    The media folder can be stored anywhere the user likes.
    How one connects speakers to the computer is their own business and has nothing to do with iTunes.

    (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?

  • Got new iPhone but can't install iTunes

    I purchased a new iPhone 4 yesterday and thought it would be easy to set up but for some reason I can't install iTunes on my laptop. I can down load the iTunes setup.exe but when it comes to install it, it gets about half way through and it comes up with the error 'Could not access network location %APPDATA%/'. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to overcome this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Fifi.

    it gets about half way through and it comes up with the error 'Could not access network location %APPDATA%/'.
    With that particular variety of 1606 (it's a 1606 error message even though the 1606 error message number isn't returned by the iTunes installer), the following Microsoft document is worth a try:

  • Can't install iTunes due to Quicktime failing to install

    I'm on Vista (sad face) and over the past couple months iTunes has worked on and off...working and then I get an error saying "iTunes has stopped working" and then I have to mess with everything uninstalling/installing to get it working again.
    However last week, when it happened I uninstalled iTunes and then attempted to uninstall Quicktime but it would not remove Quicktime off the list even after restarts. Then I ran the newest iTunes + Quicktime installer and it just goes until it gives me and error saying "The installer encountered errors before the requested operation for Quicktime could be compleated" and takes me to the complete box saying try again later. So the problem is with Quicktime because it won't uninstall/install and thus I can not install iTunes.
    I have tried using the stand-alone Quicktime installer and have gotten the same error. I have also tried Apple Software Updater and no dice. I am getting very frustrated nothing seems to work and I need to update my iPod! Please help!
    Thanks!

    +I finally got QuickTime uninstalled (it wouldn't give me errors uninstalling, it just wouldn't uninstall) via Windows CleanUp Utility.+
    After you used CleanUp, did you manually remove any leftover QuickTime program files?
    If not, let's run through a CleanUp routine again.
    Run CleanUp and remove the QuickTime entry.
    1. On the Start menu, click Computer.
    2. In Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx. (If “Hide filename extensions for known file types” is enabled on the PC, then those two files will appear as “QuickTime” and QuickTimeVR”.)
    7. Restart your computer.
    Next, we'll try to get a fresh copy of QuickTime into your PC by doing a repair install of itunes.
    Switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the repair install.
    Go into "Uninstall a program" in your Control Panel (assuming here that you don't have Classic View selected) and select itunes. click "Repair" up at the top of the control panel screen.
    If the repair install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching itunes again. Does it launch properly now?

  • I can't install itunes 10.5 or greater

    My old imac can't install itunes 10.5 or greater and I can't sync my iphone. 

    How old is your iMac and what version of the OS are you running? You need at least OS X version 10.5
    This is better asked in the iTunes list, I'll ask the hosts to move it.

    I pulled my brains out trying to figure this bug out and I may have a solution for you.
    All of it installed fine in my desktop, but a friend's laptop got the error you mentioned on quicktime, itunes, flash, officeXP and about anything else I tried to load for him.
    If you look in: C:\documents and settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temp there will be an iTunes install log...open it in Notepad and see if it isn't exiting with a 1619 error while running msiexec.exe
    If this is the case, this fix should work for you.
    Seems some configurations of XP (and possibly Vista) aren't allowing full administrator rights to the account you set up when you installed XP (even though User Editor says you do have those rights.)
    I read 2 MS articles and turned off simple file sharing, then gave ownership of the entire C: drive to the administrator. Logged the admin account off, logged his "admin" account in, and then gave rights to his personal directory to his account (c:\docs and settings\<username>)
    Once I did that, every install that had previously errored out performed flawlessly.
    The MS articles in question:
    http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=316309 (1619 error)
    and
    http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=308419 (how to set special permissions)
    Hope this helps!

  • Can i install itunes multiple times on one computer for multiple users?

    Can i install itunes multiple times on one computer for multiple users?

    Like most applications you only need to install it once for it to be available to all users. (That said it is possible to install an application and only make it available to the current user, but that's rarely needed.)

  • Can you install itunes on more than one computer?

    Hi all,
    I want to install the software for my first-generation ipod mini on my friend's computer, but I heard somewhere that you can only install the software on one computer and obviously I also want to be able to use it with my own computer as well. Can you install itunes software that comes with your ipod mini on as many computers as you want or only one?
    Many thanks,
    Samantha

    Sure you can. But instead of using the (more than likely) outdated CD, see the iTunes Download Page

  • Can't install itunes 10.4 on Windows 7 home premium

    I am not highly technical, so please bear with me:
    After repeatedly being unable to update itunes 10.2, I thought I should just uninstall it and install itunes 10.4. Wow, what a mistake. After many hours I now can't run my MS Office programs AND I can't load or run itunes.
    Originally, while trying to update itunes, I kept getting the message "errors occurred while installing the updates. If the problem persists, choose tools > download only and try installing manually." This confused me as I could not find "tools."
    After some reading online, I decided what I should do is download the Windows Installer clean up tool. Apparently this was the BIG mistake. I selected Apple items to remove with msicuu.exe, only to find that now my MS Office 2010 programs no longer run ("Microsoft Office not installed for this user"), and I still can't install itunes.
    I tried installing itunes 10.2 and got a message that I must install a 32-bit version of itunes.
    I used the cleanup tool once again and tried to install itunes 10.4, and got the message: could not open key: UNKNOWN\components\DA42BC89BF25F5BD0AF18C3B9B1A1EE8\6A262021B4A79884EA585F5E86D 86338. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key or contact your support personnel.
    Now when I try to run MS Office software, getting message "Preparing to install", then, Configuring Microsoft Office Professional Plus, then something about the program not being installed for this user (I'm the only user).
    I realize that this board probably can't help me with MS Office software, but can you help me with itunes?

  • Can't install itunes 9 in windows 7 "The folder iTunes cannot be found"

    I can not install itunes 9.0.3.15 in windows 7. Getting the error message "The folder iTunes cannot be found or created and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the Music folder." I see a solution has already been posted for this problem, but it is specifically for Windows XP. Anyone have a solution for the problem in Windows 7?

    Doublechecking some things before proceeding, j. Are you trying to upgrade your iTunes on the PC? Or is this the very first time iTunes has been installed on the PC?
    Are you getting the error message during the install, or when trying to launch 9.0.3.15 after the install?
