Can't uninstall/reinstall itunes on ipod.
Hi, Can anyone help me?
My iPod got left in the sun at the weekend and now wont turn on - it goes to the apple logo and then to the "folder + exclamation mark" screen that directs you to the support pages.
I followed the instructions I found there - I tried to reinstall everything but it wont let me. I tried to run updater but its just hanging!?
Can anyone help?
I can't uninstall or delete iPod service so that I can reinstall the whole lot It keeps telling me that it cannot delete iPod service: it is being used by another person or program. Close any programs that might be using the file and try again.

I have windows 7 64 bit but the new itunes will not install because it can't find itunes64.msi. I have searched evertwhere on my pc. In addition, I can't uninstall the itunes and reinstall for the same reason. I can't upgrade for my icloud account.
Try the following steps:
1. Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:
it may be necessary to remove all traces of iTunes, QuickTime, and related software components from your computer before reinstalling iTunes.
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Follow the instructions from Apple article listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 to remove all components
3. Reboot your computer. Next, download iTunes from here:http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ and install from scratch -
Can i reinstall Bonjour,after accidental removal, without uninstall/reinstalling itunes?
Uninstalling and then reinstalling your iTunes should also get your Bonjour reinstalled.
For the reinstall, use an installer downloaded from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
... or you could get it back via your Apple Software Update for Windows.
If you'd prefer not to uninstall iTunes, try the following procedure.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the Bonjour.msi (or Bonjour64.msi) to do a standalone Bonjour install. -

At my PC startup, I get an error message "AppleSyncNotifier.exe--Entry Point Not Found" My iPhone now doesn't show up as a Device in either iTunes or My Computer on my PC. I've uninstalled/ reinstalled iTunes & run diagnostics-no luck. Ideas?
I think my problem is fixed now.
For the fun of it, I reinstalled iTunes 9.2.1 today (using the exact same installer as I did yesterday), but this time I didn't uninstall iTunes first. As expected, iTunes recognized my iPhone (as I expected it to, until my next reboot).
A few minutes later, Software Update showed up and among the updates is "iPhone SDK Compatibility Update". The description indicates that installing this should fix an issue where iPhones and iPod touches aren't recognized by iTunes. Isn't that interesting?
I installed that update and most of the others waiting for me (including Java, Safari 5.0.1, and a few others - not 10.6.4 though, due to the issues with nVidia graphics cards). After the reboot, I started iTunes, and it saw my iPhone!
So, if you're having this same problem, I'd recommend tracking down this update and see if that does the trick for you. Hopefully it will. -
Is it possible to uninstall & reinstall iTunes and not have to redo all of my playlists etc.?
I updated iTunes and the installation failed and now I cannot open iTunes. The fix is to unistall and reinstall iTunes but I don't want to have to redo all of my playlists and things.Do not worry all your Data including Playlist, etc. will remain as it is.
Do the following:
Uninstall from Windows the following five programs: iTunes, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour and Apple Application Support. You do this from an applet in Control Panel called Programs & Features (in Windows 8, 7, or Vista) or Add or Remove Programs (in Windows XP).
Download the latest version of iTunes from Apple and note the location you're saving it to so you can find it once it's done.
Run the iTunes installation as an administrator, just Right click iTunes installer and Run as Administrator.
Note : If you are unable to Remove Apple Mobile Device Support you can skip that. -

Please, help meMy appologies. It's been a while since ive used a support forum. Im using Windows XP Pro SP 3. 3GHz P4, 512 RAM
No, I can not see anything on the disc. I cant even see the discs for that matter. I have tried all three discs in both drives of my computer and it just shows the drive label. When I double click, it says "please insert a disc in to drive." But again, the discs work on othere computers, and other discs work in these drives.
I guess I should also say that I have tried the Add/Remove programs. On the CS2 Tryout I get the error stated in the original message. When I try to uninstall CS3 I get a brief popup flash on my screen and then it disappears. Nothing more happens.

Trying to uninstall & reinstall iTunes?
Itunes would not open. Got a message on my windows 7 computer to uninstall/ reinstall iTunes. Followed the Apple recommended instructions for Uninstall. I cannot get Apple Mobile Device Support to uninstall. Even went to Microsoft Fixit program to Force the uninstall & it is still there. Itunes will not open when reinstalled. Still get error message
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Unable to update or reinstall iTunes or iPod software
I hope someone very knowledgable can help me with my dilema-
it appears that the driver for my iPod has become corrupted,
since all my songs no longer will display on it. I've attempted to
update and reinstall both the iTunes and iPod software, but each time
results in "1607: Unable to install the InstallShield Scripting Runtime."
I went to InstallShield's site and the Microsoft knowledgebase,
but nothing attempted so far seems to correct the problem(s).
Does anyone have any solutions? Please help!
