Cannot download newest version of iTunes, Updater has damaged iTunes install

I ran iTunes a few days ago and it told me there was a new version.  So, I started to download it via the Apple updater software.  Well, it failed.  And failed.  I then went to the iTuens website to just manually grab the installer.  And it says it's trying, but I never get the notice that the file is downloading.  And now, iTunes will not start.  I think I have an old installer somewhere, but it will do this again the moment I start iTunes.  Is this a know issue currently?  Is there a fix for now, or do we just have to wait?

It is known here on the forums, but there is no official "fix". However there is an effective user tip by tt2 that will help you here: Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates

    Another Vista Victory!!!  Try uninstalling iTunes, then download and install it again.  Make sure Vista is up to date.

    I keep getting an msvcr80.dll error when trying to download newest version of iTunes.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Hi, i have a lot of problems, artwork muddled and losing tracks, cannot download latest version of itunes, unable to burn onto disc.Can anyone help, i am not great with these things!!

    Hi lots going wrong with my music library, artwork is muddled up and also losing tracks because of this, also unable to download latest version of itunes and finally i cannot burn my music to disc. i have an external hard drive and a fairly large library, around 30,000 on it. Any suggestions!!

    Log in to the Developer forum. You will find instructions on how to install the lastest beta. Your problem is the beta you have installed has expired. All of them did on October 5; you will find hundreds of threads discussing this. If you have a beta it is assumed that you will continue as a beta tester, so a simple update using iTunes will not work.
    If you no longer want to be a beta tester install the GM 7.0.2 by restoring from iTunes using DFU mode.

  • Unable to download newest version of ITunes and sync IPad

    I have an old computer that we have used to sync our devices.  After the IOS update I tried to sync my IPad2 to the computer however it wants me to update ITunes.  This comuter has fallen into disrepair and will not allow me to download the newest version of ITunes.  We are going to start using a new computer however there is data on the old computer that is not on the device and we need to sync it before disposing of this computer and moving our data to another computer.
    Any ideas on what I can do?

    I am pretty sure that you can still but Leopard - maybe even search the online Apple Store.
    If it were feasible and affordable, the ideal situation would be to upgrade your Mac - buy a new one with Snoe Leopard on it. That's easier said than done with you having just bought an iPad. But Leopard will be as high as you can go on the Power PC and soon Lion will be here.
    I recently (3 months ago) upgraded my Leopard MacBook to Snow Leopard in anticipation of Lion. I love Macs and Apple products, but at some point, as with other tech devices, you have to upgrade to keep up with the technology.
    Good luck!

  • IPad says I need iTunes 10.1 or later, but I can't download on my G4 'cause I have 10.4.11 and need 10.5 or later to download newest version of iTunes. Get around?

    Just got an iPad. I have a PowerPC G4 OS X 10.4.11 at home (Tiger). I tried to sync with my iTunes but it says I need iTunes 10.1 or later. I tried to download the newest version of iTunes and it says I need OS X 10.5 (Leopard) or later. How do I use my iPad without having to upgrade my home G4 to a Leopard?
    If anyone can help me get around this, I really appreciate it!

  • Computer crash after downloading newest version of iTunes

    I downloaded and installed the newest version of iTunes a couple of days ago and now the music is not showing up on my 30 gig ipod. I can tell the music is on there because the capacity on my ipod shows the same as before. Upon realizing this problem, I re-connected my ipod and re-started itunes. Itunes showed that my ipod was synking for a long time and It eventually locked up my computer. Now when I start it is is extremely slow (5 minutes to open up the control pannel)and basically locks up anytime I try to open a web page or uninstall itunes.
    Can you help?

    Does anyone know of a support phone # I could call?

  • Cannot download newer version of itunes - older version of bonjour cannot be removed and to contact tech. support group pls. help

    Why am I not able to download the newer verion of iTunes? ......when downloading it is interrupted by"""older version of Bonjour cannot be removed-contact Tech. Supprt Group""  What am I suppost to do??  Can anyone help me with this issue.

    (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 Bonjour 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?

  • Cannot download new version or uninstall Itunes

    I cannot download new version of Itunes or uninstall my old one. It says I am missing itunes.msi file. Can anyone help? I am stuck in Itunes limbo.

    When you get that msi message, you need to do an installer cleanup.
    I will give you a method for full removal and cleanup of iTunes and related programs followed by install. You may be able to get way with just removing and cleaning up iTunes itself, but I have given the whole method in case you need it.
    Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program.
    To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install Cleanup
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
    Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
    XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Vista
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    *If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
    When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
    Restart your PC.
    Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
    Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
    If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
    restart your PC
    Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
    If it does, install iTunes.
