Can't Sync Ipad 2 with Computer b/c Itunes 11.1 installation fails

Hello! I have a question in regards to my ipad 2 and syncing it to my computer. I recently installed IOS 7 onto my Ipad 2, but when I went to sync it with my computer, Itunes gave me an error saying that I needed to download and install itunes 11.1 for compatibility reasons with IOS 7. So, I was able to successfully download the new versions of itunes directly from the itunes website, but the issue came when the installation process began. The installation ran and had finished in a short amount of time and then I received this message:
"Errors occured during the installation before iTunes could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To complete the installation, run the installer again. Click finish to exit the installer."
So I went ahead and downloaded the software multiple times (5 times) and attempted to install it multiple times and I constantly receive the same error that is displayed above. If anyone has any clue on how to fix this I'd GREATLY appreciate anyone's suggestions. I generally can fix these problems myself but this problem seems to be persistent and many other people are having similar issues.

I have to say this would only happen on a windows PC,   Why it doesn't prompt you to close all windows baffle me still!
The install gets hung up because of an open window.   You must close all windows before installation.
Open downloads and delete the downloads you did so far.
To get the install back on track:
Scary, but it will be the cleanest install.  Uninstall iTunes using the control center.  Directions can be found here:

Note...you must close all windows during install.   After the download, open download window, close all other windows.
Click on install.

  • I am continually getting error -69 when syncing iPad Air with latest iOS and iTunes versions. Any suggestions?

    Try Googling "sync without iTunes".
    There are free alternatives and there are not so free alternatives.
    Btw, to check if AVG is causing the problem, you should uninstall AVG and not just "turn it off".
    Also, can you describe how you go about uninstalling a program? For example, how did you "delete" iTunes?

  • Hi I can't sync my ipod with new version of itunes after losing old pc

    Hi my old pc crashed and burned taking with it my entire itunes library.  thought i'd backed up onto external hard drive but can't find anything.  Atleast i still have a full ipod.  However i've downloaded itunes onto my new laptop and when i try to sync with my ipod to put those tunes into the libray it says 'this ipod is synced with another itunes library.  do you want to erase this ipos and sync with this itunes library'.  If i do that i have nothing left.  How can i 'un sync' the old computer that is no longer in existence. Hope someone can help, would be a shame to lose everything! Thanks Mary

    Apple Mobile Device Support is part of the itunes install package. To install it by itself would require downloading itunes to your desktop then using something like WinRar to extract it. Quite frankly, trying to go this route can create more problems than you have right now. Something in your system is preventing AMDS from being installed. Your USB drivers up to date? Install any webcams lately? When you try to reinstall itunes, are your firwalls. ant-virus, ant-malware disabled? If I were you, I'd look at this stuff first. If you want to try & install AMDS separately, I've told you how, but I don't recommend it.

  • Can i sync my iphone with more than one itunes library without erasing content?

    So i just got a replacement iphone yesterday, and restored from a backup all my contacts and stuff.
    I dont have my own laptop so when it comes to music i get all of my mine from other computers...this has never been a problem with my phone or ipods, but i guess it is now...when i click on manually manage it says:
    "An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library."
    so i cannot go to a second device and take songs from them without erasing the ones from the previous comp.
    they used to be able to authorized on up to 5 comps right? is this a new strict setting, or is there a way around it??
    thanks

    No. An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library.
    Basically you'd want to get the music to the library first, then sync it to the phone after you get it set up in your library.  iTunes will not transfer songs off the phone that were not purchased through the iTunes store, so they need to be in your library beforehand. You might consult with the googles if there are other third party ways to do that.
    The 5 compy authorization is for iTunes account authorization, which means transfering music bought through itunes, apps, etc.

  • Can't sync Verizon V3 with computer

    Very frustrating. I finally found a phone I like, that takes the place of my long-lost Startac, and the iSync website specifically says it can sync addressbook and calendar with the V3. But not Verizon's, I guess.
    Verizon just brought out their V3. It is identical to anybody else's, except instead of quad-band, I guess it's CDMA. It doesn't use a SIM card.
    Now, either my Titanium doesn't have bluetooth, or the bluetooth 1.0 spec that it does support is useless. I went out and bought a $40 BT 2.0 dongle. Well, the computer at least recognizes there's a phone sitting next to it and pairs with it, but when asked what I want to do with the device, I get ONLY the checkbox for using it as an internet modem. No option for syncing calendar and contacts.
    In iSync, I can also get the computer to recognize that there is a device, but then it states that the device is not supported. No ifs, ands, or buts. That's as far as I can get. No device appears between the .mac and sync icons.
    My phone didn't come with a USB cable. Am I going to have to buy a special one? I tried a standard USB cable off a printer and it won't charge the phone, even.
    So am I doing something wrong, or do I just need to go back to using my Kyocera palm-os brick?

    You make good points about Apple's software needing an update; but I can't sit and wait an untold amount of time before the update happens. I'm curious as to WHY iSync can't communicate with all V3's; the fact that it can't points to hardware changes with the V3c's (which I can confirm from inspection) as well as possible software problems on Verizon's side. I am always suspicious of the fact that their phones have to be "programmed" over the air - I suspect that last-minute encoding actually reduces functionality.
    As for the look and feel -- I didn't like their unworkable red-bars interface and the Verizon version of the V3 lacks the "menu" key in between the left and right softkeys.
    The only strength Verizon still has over competitors is signal coverage and consistency. But Cingular is rapidly catching up (and Sprint rents their lines from Verizon!). Anywhere I need to go is always a major metro area; and my parents, who live in a motorhome and travel extensively, have moved to Cingular with no signal problems - at least along interstates and such. The backwoods of Wisconsin, I don't know about.
    Apple's iSync compatibility list has many Motorla phones listed - only ONE non-V3 is carried by Verizon that I can see. And obviously there's problems with the new V3c. This almost non-existent relationship between Apple and Verizon is unacceptable - I chose to go the easy route and have been rewarded with a phone that has MORE functionality and customizability. I can't put a price on that.

  • Can't sync ipad calinder with imac 10.6.8

    I can't get the ipad calendar to sync with the calendar on my imac running 10.6.8. I put an event on the ipad, it never appears on the imac! it does appear on the icloud calendar. I've tried itunes sync plugged in to the imac too. What can I try?

    I´m having the same problem. From the info I have gathered online, you need to upgrade the Mac OSX to 10.7 or 10.8 which costs $19.99. Is there a free way to do this?

  • Can't sync iPad mini with iTunes after iOS 8

    iPad is just junk after iOS 8. I was  going to purchase a Mac book air this week, but now I don't know. can someone help me?
    I have tried re syncing several times. i backed up my iPad. The music synced, but most  photos & iBooks haven't. They are in my iTunes i just can't get to them.
    thanks,
    eileen

    Waiting for items to copy generally means there's some corrupted file that's gumming up the works. Often if you be patient and just let it sit and let iTunes do its thing, often it resolves itself.
    I had an issue with the music on my iPod. It took me about half an hour waiting and it resolved itself.
    Or you can try to sync your photos and books a few at a time and see if you can find the file that there's an issue with.

  • Can't sync iPad after iOS upgrade to7.0.2 - repeated authorisation prompt - using admin profile, file SC info does not exist

    Hello,
    After I upgraded to iOS 7.0.2 I can't sync iPad mini with PC (on Windows XP). I keep getting the folowing message: "The iPad could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchase items on this iPad". I tried everything:
    1) De-authorizing and rebooting (about 100 times);
    2) De-installing and reinstalling itunes;
    3) Deactivating the firewall;
    4) Run Diagnostics (result - all works fine including sync);
    5) Tried to look for the "SC info" directory or file everyone is referring to in the Computer (Hidden files) of the iTunes directory - nothing;
    6) Ticking and unticking the |Sync over Wi-Fi" option;
    7) Changing backup from iCloud to this Computer and back.
    I am using the admin account on my PC - doesn't help.
    I cannot sync anything at all.
    BTW - on the PC and on the iPad - everything that is there plays OK. I can get stuff from iStore both from iPad and from the PC - but I can't sync the two.
    It looks like an iOS 7 bug to me - any ideas or advice?
    Thanks.

    No I have tried multiple connections, at home, at work, and even at my church but to no avail.  For example I have recently purchased a CD from Itunes using my computer, but my ipad will only play it from the cloud.  I've tried to download straight from my Ipad and that too does not work.  When ever I try to plug the Ipad into the computer a window pops up and says that the sync has failed.  If I try to drag the file to the Ipad it will say it's loading than just quit before it transfers.  hmmm.  I hope they get this bug fixed some.  would really like to have that CD to isten to on the go.   Another issue I am no having is the apps are having trouble updating.  I have tried to turn off auto update and do it manually and that too is failing.

  • After syncing iPad Air with iTunes the Info Page no longer shows up.  Doesn't matter if I sync via wi-fi or try another computer.  Without the Info Page how do I sync my calander/contacts/mail ??

    I think there's a big ol' discussion in the Mavericks forum about this - some folks have suggested setting up your own CalDAV server so you can continue syncing without having to route things through iCloud.
    It may be simpler to go back to Mountain Lion or Lion (assuming you were on either of those). My syncing computer is on Lion and can't go higher so I didn't realize until recently that USB syncing over contacts & calendars was no longer available!

  • How can I sync iPad with Outlook?

    How can I sync iPad with Outlook?

    Connect your iPad to your computer and open iTunes. Look under 'info' and you may need to scroll down. The option will be there to sync your outlook calendar (or more) with the iPad. Choose what you want and sync to 'save' the settings.

  • HT1386 How many different computers can I sync my iPod with?  My laptop crashed and was completely wiped clean and this was the machine that my iPod synced with so I don't know if it will be counted as a "new" computer.

    How many different computers can I sync my iPod with?  My laptop crashed and was completely wiped clean and this was the machine that my iPod synced with so I don't know if it will be counted as a "new" computer when I sync my iPod.

    You can sync with onee at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content.
    Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.
