Cannot install or remove itunes or quicktime from computer.

I'm trying to upgrade my iTunes and keep getting message that it resides is a network resource and is unavailable, then get message that
Quicktime.msi is invalid and I'm unable to locate a valid version on my system, Quicktime.msi does exist in the directory
I'm using for the installation. Attempts to remove iTunes or Quicktime using control panel and remove program results in
same error.
My iTunes is nonfunctional and has been since I first received this error. 
I'd appreciate any assistance in resolving this as I'd really like to use iTunes.

your problem is with XP and your system and integrity of your drive.
never used XP
Run %TEMP% and delete everything there
do chkdsk

not only uninstall but then after restart look and see if all the progams are realy gone
run ccleaner and include registry clean
microsoft cleanup utility was very useful with such problems

  • Cannot Install or remove iTunes

    Error message stating:
    cannot find iTunes.msi, please check that you have access to this file.
    Can anyone help. iTunes does not have any support for this topic.

    cannot find iTunes.msi, please check that you have access to this file.
    With that one, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp from Microsoft:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
    Now run the utility ("Start > All programs > Windows Installer Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • When ipad connected to windows computer for sync I cannot install or remove an app. Screen does not react. Also lost my app store app from the ipad screen

    when ipad connected to windows computer for sync I cannot install or remove an app. Screen does not react. Also lost my app store app from the ipad screen. IPad is ipad 2 and op system is 8.1.1. Just tried full restore and still the situation is the same.

    For the missing App Store issue, if you swiped fro screen to screen to look in other folders and didn't find it, and did a spotlight search to see which folder it is in and had no success with that, Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that you didn't disable it.
    You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.
    For the syncing issue, which screen does not react, the computer and iTunes or the iPad?

  • Cannot install on iPhone 5 several Apps from the store, BUY/FREE blue button disappeared

    Cannot install on iPhone 5 several Apps from the store, BUY/FREE blue button disappeared.
    Already tried to restore to factory settings, no luck. Same Apps on another iphone can be installed without problems.
    Any idea what is causing it?

    Try this, press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own. If they don't download at least the timer should stop.

  • I cannot find out how to upload pictures from computer to ipad on updated version of itunes.

    I cannot find out how to upload pictures from computer to ipad on updated itunes.

    I've gone through this one. The new version of itunes I have doesn't list the devices on the left side but across the top and there is no place about photos. Also noticed If trying to move docunments from numbers it's no longer at the bottom of the app page as in the past and I have to email docs between computer and ipad.

  • HT5022 i cannot install airport utility 5.6 onto my computer although i need it to configure an older airport express and base station

    i cannot install airport utility 5.6 onto my computer although i need it to configure an older airport express and base station

    Here is my method.. the software is free that is required.. always a good point.
    How to load 5.6 into ML.
    1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
    2. Download and install unpkg.
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Run unpkg on the desktop.. it is very simple.. drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. drill down.. applications utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
    You cannot uninstall 6.1 so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. so just ignore the toyland version.. the plastic hammer.. and start using 5.6.. a real tool.
    For screen shots see this post.

  • Got new ATV and all set up. It keeps loosing connection with iTunes on laptop and have tried everything suggested in set up guide. It works fine for a while then the iTunes account vanishes from 'computer' menu TV screen.  Full Wifi signal on both devices

    Got new ATV and all set up. It keeps loosing connection with iTunes on laptop and have tried everything suggested in set up guide. It works fine for a while then the iTunes account vanishes from 'computer' menu TV screen.  Full Wifi signal on both devices so can't think what could be causing it to happen. Any suggestions please?

    Sorry, I updated another thread I was a part of but didn't update my own thread.....ughhh!
    I updated all of my ATV 2's and 3's to the latest firmware when it was released and have been problem free since. I do believe the major issue of not being able to connect after a period of inactivity has been corrected with the latest ATV firmware.
    I can look at my network connection table using "netstat -an" in a CMD window and I do not see the massive number of connections I saw before the update.
    Here is a link to the other thread I was referring to above:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19952545#19952545
    Have you applied the latest firmware updates to your ATV 3's?

  • I cannot install or remove old itunes, install is looking for an msi

    Then use free Ccleaner to repeatly repair your registry until it's fixed.

    download iTunes again from Apple.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    If you have 64bit Vista or Windows 7, look for the seperate download of iTunes for that further down the page.
    Once installed, use the Apple Software Update under your Start Menu to fully update all Apple components.
    Your content will remain on the drive in the Music > iTunes Folder, nothing is deleted.
    You  should be making backups of your content regularly, either through  iTunes or via copying the iTunesFolder in your Music folder to a  external drive.
    Windows  is notorious for having "other" issues that make it unstable, we as  volunteers helping others can't always resolve those issues.
    After doing the steps above, stand by and others may be able to assist you.
