Can't install iTunes 7.5 on vista!  Going crazy.  Can't find in forums

Hey guys. I am on my mom's computer trying to install iTunes for her, and I just can't get it to happen. I have searched the forums, but no one is having this problem...
I go to download. Everything seems to be working, but it lands on the "preparing to instal..." window, and then nothing happens. It just sits there. I left it alone for a few hours, but nothing.
I tried downloading quicktime and iTunes, but the same thing happend.
I tried downloading quicktime by itself, same thing.
Does anyone know how to fix this? There is currently no iTunes on the computer at all.

Your lucky. Everything was find until I installed iTunes 7.5 on my Vista Ultimate machine and it crashed the machine and the OS. Lost everything in iTunes including purchases, movies, games, playlists, everything and had to re-install Vista and everything else that installs. I do wonder if Apple did this deliberately. I know Vista is problematic but there is really no excuse for this kind of thing happening either from Apple, Microsoft, or Dell for that matter. Of course Apple or Microsoft could care less.

  • CAN'T INSTALL ITUNES 9 ON WINDOWS VISTA 64-BIT OS

    Hey guys!
    I'm having a reaaaallly hard time installing iTunes on my Windows Vista 64-bit OS. Everytime I think it's about to finish installing, it shows me this message:
    What does it mean?? Can someone PLEASE help me, I haven't had music on my iPhone for 4 weeks now!

    Curses ... you did everything right by providing the screenshot, thanks. But we really need to see the error message number that shows up after the "HRESULT" bit for one of those, and it's deciding not show us that.
    Okay ... people who get these error messages for iTunes installs typically are also getting Windows updates failures too. So we'll try to work out what the iTunes/Updates issue is by checking your Update history.
    Go into your Windows Update and click "Update History". Have updates been failing for you recently? If so, doubleclick on each failure to bring up a small window showing some info about the failure.
    What error message codes are you getting for the Windows Updates failures? (For example, 0x8007000B, or something else?)

  • Cannot install itunes 7.7 with Vista due to bonjour service issues

    (I do have itunes version 7.6.2.9 working fine with no issues on vista)Cannot install itunes 7.7 becoz vista doesnt let bonjour service to run, While trying to start the Bonjour service from the Windows Services console gives an other error: "Windows could not start the Bonjour service on Local Computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code -65549." Is there any way I can get Bonjour to install and run as a service? tried switching off windows defender and Norton Internet security along with norton firewall too, still it doesnt let me install ,even tried downloading the windows version of bonjour but it too doesnt get installed as the service cannot start

    Apple offer this advice which I guess is not much help to you as you have Norton:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1609?viewlocale=en_US
    I wonder if it is worth looking in the your firewall configuration>>Programs and deleting any entry for Bonjour - in the hope that you will be prompted to allow it or not when you do the install, or maybe adding it back with permit all.
    But someone came up with another possible solution at the end of this thread:

  • I cannot install itunes on my windows vista

    I try to install itunes on my windows vista, it gives me a error

    "iTunesSetup.exe não é um aplicativo Win32 válido"
    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

    itunes 11 has a specific spec that needs to be met before you can install it. Please verify from this if your pc pass the requirement from this link

    Unless otherwise specified, in C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Temp. However, if you want to know for sure for your system, download something (if you haven't already) and do a search for that specific dwnld. Then, drill down to the containing folder.

  • Why can't I install iTunes 10.5 on Vista?? Code 80073712

    Dear iTunes Team,
    yesterday, I tried to connect my iPhone 4 with iTunes, but it didn't work...so I thought I should update iTunes to 10.5 finally for making it work again.
    And suddenly after a few minutes of waiting during the installation an error occures many other iTunes-User also have:
    "During the installation of assembling "Miscrosoft.VC80.CRT,publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type"win32,version="8.0. 50727.762",processorAr chitecture="x86"" an error occures. For more information, see Help and Support."
    I think it concerns with some Windows Updates, I couldn't install without getting error code 80073712.
    I tried to install and deinstall iTunes 10.5 a few times..but it never works
    and I did everything to get rid of this problem..
    -CCleaner (cleaning registery)
    -disabling firewall/defender/anti-virus software
    -disabling windows updates with "cmd."
    -virus check
    . etc
    AND it doesn't work!
    Please Apple, solve these problems as soon as you can! I'm not the only one who's affected..
    Thanks a lot.
    PS: I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium, SP2

    It seems to be an update issue under Vista. Therefore I would try to klick right the Setup.exe-File and then install iTunes with XP-ServicePack3-Compatibility (and as Administrator).

  • CAN'T INSTALL ITUNES ON MY WINDOWS VISTA 64-BIT SYSTEM

    Hey guys,
    I'm having a hard time installing Itunes on my 64-bit Windows Vista system. Everytime I think it's about to finish installing, it shows this message.
    Someone, please help me! I haven't had music on my iPhone for 4 weeks now!

    Not Windows RT then .  When you say "I've tried both" do you mean the 32- and 64-bit installers for Windows?  In the first instance you should go to http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ - this should detect the version of Windows you are running and offer the correct installer.  It'll look like this:
    Click on Download Now - this will download the correct installer for you to run and install iTunes.
    There is, however, some anecdotal evidence that the scripts on the Apple site that are supposed to detect the version of Windows you are running may fail for some users - jumping straight to the "Thank you for downloading ..." page with the installer not having been downloaded.  As an alternative, you can go directly to the relevant downloads:
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe
    of which you'll need the second one.  See turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for more details if you're still having problems with installation; you may also need to consult HP's helpdesk as the error message you report may be symptomatic of a Windows issue, not an iTunes one.

  • Can't install iTunes or QuickTime on Vista.  Vista is killing me. HALP!

    I read through all the [million] other posts with Vista problems but mine is a bit different.
    Its a brand new Dell computer with 32bit Vista Home Premium which I have learned is a bad idea but now I'm stuck with it and without my music. I hear some people don't have problems with ITunes and Vista at all so I still have hope.
    When I try to install iTunes 8 plus QuickTime this is the error:
    "the installation of QuickTime did not complete successfully. iTunes requires QuickTime."
    When I try to install QuickTime on its own this is the error:
    "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2755."
    Thanks for any info. Peace in the new year to all!

    I am having this same problem. Has anyone found a solution?

  • Installed iTunes 10.5 on Vista.  iTunes continually launches and won't stay closed.  How can I fix this problem?

    I just installed iTunes 10.5 on my Windows Vista laptop.  Now iTunes launches itself about every 60 seconds on my computer.  I close the application and 60 seconds later it reopens.  Any ideas how to stop this?

    Had the same problem (as have a LOT of others).
    Took the following action which (knock on wood) seems to have solved it!
    Plug in iPhone; when Sync starts, click on "iPhone" under Devices; click on "Summary" page; under Options at the bottom of the page, uncheck "Sync wiyh this iPhone over ..."; click apply; exit after sync is complete......my problem disappeared!
    Note: if the box is already unchecked, try checking it; apply; uncheck; apply
    Good luck!

  • Can't install iTunes on my new Vista-PC

    I bought my Dell Notebook 2 months ago. It's with Vista Home Premium (no upgrade from XP, Vista installed from the beginning) and runs fine so far. But I've got no chance installing iTunes - seems to be simply impossible (it tells something of "VisualBasicScript is not installed" - which is probably not the problem...). Now as I saw in some discussion groups, some think that there's a problem with Vista/McAfee/iTunes. But others say there's none. Now my question:
    - is there anyone whith a similar system who had and solved this annoying problem?
    - or are there any other ideas beside of "wait until Apple publishes a new version of iTunes" (of which probably no one knows when this should happen)?

  • Windows installer won't install iTunes 10.5 Windows Vista 64

    Can't install iTunes 10.5 on my operating system. I'm running windows vista home premium 64.
      Every time I try, a window installer alert pops up. It says; This installation package could not be,
    opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor
    To verify that this is a valid windows installer package. I recently had to reinstall my operating system

    Could that be the issue ? Can anyone help ? Thanks Sam

  • Problems Installing iTunes 10 with Windows Vista

    I am running Windows Vista (32 bit) and have installed iTunes 10. Any time I try to launch iTunes I receive the following message: "iTunes needs to be repaired to work with Vista. Use the 'Programs and Features' control panel to repair iTunes."
    The bigger problem is when I open the Programs and Features control panel, iTunes is not listed as a program. All of the other iTunes components are listed(Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Software Update, Bonjour). However, I can see iTunes (version 10) in the C:>Programs Files>iTunes folder, just not in the control panel.
    I was going to attempt to uninstall and reinstall as numerous posts have suggested, however, since the program does not appear in the control panel, I have not been able to uninstall it.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
