Can't run iTunes

has anyone gotten the message C:\documents and settings\name\desktop\itunes setup.exe is not a valid Win 32 application? I have been trying to run this for my daughter since christmas and have had no luck!

Go to www.apple.com/itunes, redownload iTunes, then when prompted click Repair, then restart the computer. It should work after that.

  • HT1199 Can  I run iTunes and Apps on my Windows 7 computer or do I need an ipad or iphone ?

    Can I run ITunes and Apps on my Windows7 computer. So  far the one App I have downloaded just won't run. Do I need an iPad or IPhone to run these programmes?

    There is an iTunes on the idevices, just a Store effectvily.
    There is an iTunes on a PC and Mac, which is the Library handler, and connects to the iDevices for sync and backup.
    The Apps that you download for iDevices are downloaded with "Appstore" on that iDevice itself, or downloaded on the Mac or PC with iTunes for transferring to the iDevice.
    That apps will only run on the iDevice.
    For Window s7 and Windows 8 there has just been released a new iTunes version 11.

  • My PowerBook G4 can't run iTunes 10.5.3. It says I need QuickTime 7.5.5, which I can't download. I'm running OS 10.5.8.

    My PowerBook G4 can't run iTunes 10.5.3. It says I need QuickTime 7.5.5, which I can't download. I'm running OS 10.5.8.

    I had the same problem but I resolve the issue by reloading quicktime. There is a quicktime 7.5.5 for os 10.5.8, I download it from apple and install it. After it was installed, itune launched by itself with no problems. Hope it works for you.

  • Can we run itunes as a service on windows

    Can we run itunes as a service? If not we really need the dev team to step up and fix it.
    With the new option for sync over wifi we really need a service that runs in the background of our home pc's for the sync. As you know this takes place everytime you apply power, or when you hit the sync now button. So, unless we run itunes in its fullest all the time we can't count on the wifi sync to do what it is designed for. Running itunes eats up computer resources that some people need when doing school work, job work, and other important things. So please build a new version of itunes that allows it to run in the background and serve as a sync service.
    Anyway this might be the wrong place for a suggestion but hopefully someone will get it to the right people.

    Take a look at something called java service wrapper ,
    http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.org/doc/english/introduct
    on.htmlNot seen that one before. Ta.
    Alexandria software used to support a simpler app called JavaService... google for that maybe if the above is too much.

  • Can't run iTunes, Apple Application Support program missing.

    Can't run iTunes, Apple Application Support program missing.  It's a brand new computer, never had iTunes installed.  I've attempted 16 installs, each time uninstalling the previous install and verifying no Apple software installed before trying again; I've also been using different browsers, still no luck.  Windows 7, 64 bit.

    Try downloading 7-Zip (free), or a free trial of WinRAR, and unpack the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe file into its components then try installing them individually in alphabetical order (don't try to install SetupAdmin.exe or iCloud.msi). AAS might not install right now, but you may get a more useful error message as to why not, or it might install once the other components have been installed.

    Sorry Glen, but there is not. And you don't have to upgrade to 10.6 (Snow Leopard).  You need at a minimum of 10.5.8 (Leopard).

  • Can't run iTunes unless ipod connected

    I'm running itunes version 7.3.2.6. Until recently I only used ITunes to put a few CD's onto iIpod. I now find that I can't run ITunes unless the ipod is connected. Is this normal?
    If I try to run iTunes without the ipod connected I get error message "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed".
    Tried upgrading to V7.5 but it won't install and I receive error message "The older version of Apple Software Update cannot be removed".
    Tried uninstalling manually but no joy there.
    Tried using the Windows Installer CleanUp utility but that leaves lots of files in the iTunes and QuickTime folders and some can't be deleted as they are apparently in use by another program.
    Can anyone help?

    +"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.+
    Okay. That's consistent with the other messages.
    Given that there's been a problem with both the itunes and Apple Software Update msi's, there may also be an issue with the QuickTime msi (which hasn't had the opportunity to surface yet).
    So let's try the following procedure with that one.
    launch Windows Installer CleanUp ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"), find any iTunes and/or QuickTime entries in the list of programs in CleanUp, select those entries, and click “remove”.
    Next, we'll manually remove any leftover iTunes or QuickTime program files:
    (1) Open Local Disk (C:) in Computer or whichever disk programs are installed on.
    (2) Open the Program Files folder.
    (3) Right-click the iTunes folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion.
    (4) Right-click the QuickTime folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. (Note: This folder may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
    (5) Delete the QuickTime and QuicktimeVR files located in the C:\Windows\system32\ folder. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue. (Note: These files may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
    (6) Right-click on the Recycle Bin and on the shortcut menu, click Empty Recycle Bin.
    (7) Restart your computer.
    Does an itunes install go through now?
    *If things don't go well ...*
    ... another couple of questions:
    If you get an error message when trying to remove a folder, can let us know precisely what it says? (Mention the file it cites.)
    If there were no iTunes or QuickTime entries showing in CleanUp, were there any mysterious blank lines in the entries (or lines containing just version numbers, not names of software)?

  • Can"t run iTunes after update of OSX 10.9.3

    Just updated my OS to OSX10.9.3 and my Safari browser to 7.0.4 and now I can't run iTunes!  Keep getting notice that it needs 64 bit to run and to uncheck the 32 bit box.  Problem is, the 32 bit box is not checked.  Never had problem with older system.  What can I do to be able to play iTunes?

    I suggest you install iTunes 11.2.2, the latest version. If you have just installed Mavericks, then open App Store and login with your Apple ID. Click on the Upgrades icon in the toolbar. The new iTunes should show up. Click on the Update button.

  • Can't run iTunes off-network

    I have my laptop hooked into my company's network. When I remove my laptop from the network, iTunes won't open, saying it cannot find the iTunes folder. I can only run iTunes when I am hooked into my network settings. It would not even install on my laptop unless I was on the network. How do I configure iTunes so that it is self-contained on my laptop? Can anyone help me?

    Having similar problem with iTunes.msi.
    Error 1316. A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file C:\WINDOWS\Installer\iTunes.msi
    May or May not be related but I have a hunch it is. This has been around on my Laptop for about a year every since a botched iTunes Quicktime install. Never have been able to get iTunes to run, or update Quicktime from an early version 6. Finally got Quicktime updated and installed through apple updater today. It errored similar to the error you posted except it suggested using tools, download only and manual install from the Apple Updater Menu. Quicktime worked, iTunes didn't so I figured I'm tired of blowing it off and see what the fine people here at Support can offer-up.
    Still have the following Error:

    Once you get a complete iTunes folder on the external drive, start iTunes with the option/alt key held down and select the iTunes Library.itl file on the external drive.  You will also need to do this with your main computer or the libraries will become unsynchronized.
    Alternatively you can make a separate library using the same media on the second computer. Start as you have been doing, let iTunes create a new, blank library file which will be on hte internal drive, set the media folder location in preferences to be the one on the external drive, then add the files to the new iTunes library. Unless you are a super-organized individual, or you don't care if your libraries do not have the same content, you are better off using a single library file that is on the external, not setting up separate library files.

  • I can't run itunes on windows 7 after upgraded it

    I had installed Itunes working properly until last week, with my Ipod Touch. Recently I tried to upgrade the Itunes and after that I can't run it. Supposedsly Itunes was installed but don't run.
    Please help me to fix this problem.

    I've been having the same issues for the past year and a half. I've spent 6-8months trying to figure it out. Went to various Itunes stores with pictures on my Iphone per each step so I could relay all information that I'd come across and the personnel were less than helpful, after conversations that would sometimes last an hour between myself, employees and managers they always came back to "simply uninstall then reinstall" when I told them for the thousanth time that I've done that multiple times and my errors are happening while trying to reinstall it they act stumped and say "well then I'm not sure, I'll give you a call if I figure it out" and disappear. I've been very disatisfied at the lack of support from Apple and if Android to piece together a reletively reliable phone I'd switch to them in a heartbeat. I'll follow this question incase someone can answer this, but I don't have much faith.
    BTW, wifey has Windows 7 running on the laptop and my phone syncs just fine to that and no trouble with itunes, just mine (desktop).

  • How can I run iTunes to manage my iPod music and still manage my iPhone / iPad?

    Help!  I ditched iTunes 11 on my desktop PC a year ago or so, and reverted to 10.7, because of the crazy decision Apple made to remove "Composer" as a category, thereby making iTunes useless for anyone with a classical music collection.
    That is painful, because 10.7 doesn't allow me to upgrade my iPhone Apps.  But at least I have my music...
    However, last week I bought an iPad Air.  When I connected it to my iTunes 10.7 I was given short shrift.  IOS 7 will only talk to iTunes 11.
    I hit on what I thought was an ingenious solution.  I loaded iTunes 11 onto my laptop PC.  I thought I would then be able to transfer my iPhone's affections (and apps) to the laptop, and then connect the iPad to the laptop too.  OK, so I had no option but to "upgrade" my iPhone to IOS 7.
    So now I find that my desktop (iTunes 10.7) can talk to neither my iPhone nor my iPad.
    My iPhone will connect to the laptop, but cannot establish any app linkage.  My iPad remains unused.
    One of the things I used to love about Apple products was that everything just WORKED.  Please can someone suggest a way forward for me.  Has iTunes 11 been fixed to deal with Composers, so I can upgrade to it?  I can't copy my entire music database to my laptop because the disk is not big enough.  Solutions eagerly awaited!

    Thanks for the reply, but I need a way forward.  Here are the options I can envisage and I would find it really helpful to have their feasibility commented on - or better options suggested.
    1) My ideal solution.  I sever my iPhone's connection to my desktop system so that I can run iTunes 11 on my laptop and sync iPhone and iPad to that.  Problem: I don't know how to sync the iPhone to the laptop.
    2) Upgrade my desktop to iTunes 11, completely destroying my classical music collection's backup on my 120GB iPod classic.  This is OK so long as I never need to reload the iPod.
    3) is there a way I can somehow freeze my iTunes 10.7 on my desktop and then upgrade to iTunes 11?  That would also be an ideal outcome, because I don't add new music to my iPod because it's full.
    Any suggestions warmly welcomed!
