Can't uninstall itunes on windows xp. Please help.

I am running windows xp and cannot get itunes to uninstal using add/ remove programs. Please help.
The error I am getting is.......The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Enter an alternative path to a folder containing the installation package iTunes.msi

(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?

Can't download latest iTunes on Windows 7, please help?

Hi,
I'm having trouble downloading the lastest version of iTunes from the apple website.
I clicked download iTunes etc and then got the itunessetup thingy, so I tried installing it but within seconds the wizard does to the end page and says:
'ITunes installer completed.
The installer encountered errors before itunes could be configured. Errors occured during installation. Your system has not been modified.
Please run the installer again, or click finish to exit.'
I have tried installing it several times and keep getting the same issue. I also uninstalled everything I have from Apple on my laptop and tried installing iTunes again then with no luck.
It's really frustrating me now and i have no idea what to do. I've tried searching this issue but other people have posted about different problems to this one so I dont know how to fix it. Help please?
Thanks

new to Windows 8, please help me.
Coming from Windows 7? It is quite analogous, especially if you were a keyboard user. Ctrl-Esc (or press and release Win) shows you the equivalent of the Start Menu, which is now called the Start Screen. In W7 once you brought up the
Start Menu you may have been aware that you could either click on pinned items, click on pinned Taskbar buttons, click on Desktop shortcuts, OR... do some typing to bring something up from your installed applications. Well, in W8 we could do the first
and the last completely the same and now in W8.1.1 we can do all of those things. There are also new options which can keep you mostly oblivious of the Start Screen if you would prefer to do that.
But to answer your specific example, after you see the Start Screen (or All apps view of it) just start typing P O

Can't install iTunes on Windows Vista. Help?

I just got the iPhone 4S and it would not sync up because I needed the latest version of iTunes. I tried to update but it would not, so I look at some forums. I have uninstalled iTunes and all Apple related programs from my computer (Dell Inspiron 1720, Windows Vista) and restarted my computer. Now, when I download iTunesSetup, it will not even open. Help?

It can have different causes. Read this ...

Can't Unistall iTunes or Quicktime! Please HELP!

We have used iTunes for a couple of years now and haven't had any problems until I bought my daughter an iPod Nano. The iPod requires iTunes 7 which I downloaded and tried to install but an error keeps coming up that I don't have sufficient privileges to "iPod Services" so I thought I would try to uninstall iTunes and Quicktime and then reinstall them, but when I go into the Add/Remove feature from the Control Panel and click on remove, it does nothing! And Quicktime isn't even listed in the Add/Remove section so I went to Quicktime in the "all programs" menu and tried to uninstall Quicktime from there and it tells me that Quicktime isn't installed, which is weird because it's listed in the "all programs" menu. Can anyone help me. My daughter is totally bummed because she hasn't been able to do anything with the ONLY present that she wanted for Christmas. I am running Windows XP Service Pack 2. Any help would truly be appreciated. THANK YOU!!
Windows XP

I have a similar problem, no ones seems to understand how iTunes 7 works when you had previous versions installed. Surprised you don't get them uninstalled, my XP control panel function did that part OK. I guess you can always manually delete the files but this may leave registry issues behind.

Can't download itunes on netbook. someone please help!!!

every time i click download itunes a little window appears and then it says internet explorer has stopped working then i close the program and then it just goes to another page that says thank you for downloading itunes. even though it didn't download anything. can someone please help me with this problem.

i have the same exact problem

I can't install Itunes 11.0.4. please help!

The automatic updater threw an error when I tried to update iTunes and Quick Time today.
It said: "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable." about both a "iTunes 64.msi" file and a "Quick Time.msi" file.
Solutions to this problem after google searching were to completely uninstall and reinstall iTunes and Quick Time using Microsoft Fix-it (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3704). I tried this and Microsoft Fix-it just loaded forever and wouldn't stop so I tried using Windows Installer Cleanup which was mentioned in a discussion (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4753469?start=0&tstart=0). I was able to uninstall iTunes with this program but Quick Time didn't show up.
Now after trying to reinstall iTunes from the apple website it says "Could not open key: UNKNOWN/Components/[string of letters&numbers]/[string of letters&numbers] Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel."
What is this and how do I fix it?
I just want to get iTunes and Quick Time back to normal...
I just wanted to update them like usual.....

Hello KB92,
Thank you for providing all the information about the steps you have taken so far and the issue you are experiencing with iTunes. It sounds like you finally got iTunes uninstalled, but you are not able to install it now. I recommend following the steps in this articleto help with that:

Ever since I donwloaded the latest itunes version I haven't been able to open my itunes. I've tired safe mode and still nothing, I've also tried dleting itunes and re-installing, no help, And finally I removed itunes genius folder from itunes and still nothing. CAn someone give me some advice? Thanks.

Okay.
In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?
iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues

Error code 2330 wen installing itunes to windows vista. please help

ok so i have tried everything from repairing to uninstalling manually and still itunes refuses to uninstall or install itself. can anyone help me?

Interesting.
Okay, let's try some general principles troubleshooting with this one, then.
(1) Do you currently have a copy of the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package installed on that PC? If so, try downloading the following security update:
[Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update|http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=766a6af7-ec73-4 0ff-b072-9112bab119c2&displaylang=en#filelist]
Does iTunes install for you after applying that update?
(2) If no joy there, head into your Windows Update and click on the Update History. Have a lot of Updates also been failing for you recently? If so, doubleclick on the entries for the failed updates to bring up more information on each. What error codes appear for you for the failed updates? (Precise spelling, please.)

I get this error message when i try to install iTunes on windows 7.PLEASE HELP...

there is a problem with this windows installer package.a program required for this install to complete could not be run.contact your support personnel or package vendor
can't seem to find an answer for this anywhere.

id just like to add to this again.after spending the last 5 hours trying to solve this and getting no acurate help from either the apple website or microsoft website i was given the answer not by one of the many computer geeks on the internet who tell you to delete this,delete that,download this or that etc etc but by someone in the same boat as me who stumbled on it by chance.
Solution...simply click START - ALL PROGRAMES - APPLE SOFTWARE UPDATE
this will prompt you to update a file that makes your installer more compatible.click yes.once this is done a list will appear with a number of apple programes available for download.iTunes is on the list click that and it will install the latest version for you,job done.It really is that easy at last!!!

I also have WinPro x64 and encounter the same problems as yours. Have you tried iTunes 7.0.1, if so, please let me know. Thanks.

Can't open Itunes on my pc, Please help me!

HI, i was updating itunes around 2 weeks ago. After i tried to start itunes but i won't start. I have tried to reinstall the program, but it didn't work either.

1. First check if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
2. If that fails, refer to following article to remove SC Info.lib file:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
3. If that fails, repair or reinstall your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REAPIR.

Can't use itunes anymore... please help me!

Every time I try launchin iTunes, I get an error message telling me I have quicktime version "7.0d0" installed and that I need version 7.0.3.
I reinstalled quicktime, now it's version 7.1, reinstalled itunes twice, nothing works..
does anybody know what to do? support won't help me as I bought my ipod over 90 days ago...
thanks

let's try another careful QT 7.1 reinstall, this time taking a few additional explicit precautions.
download and save a copy of the QT 7.1 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
Quicktime 7.1 Installers … get the one that doesn’t mention itunes 6
if that install goes through okay, does your itunes launch properly again?
(if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)
