Cannot update or install latest version of iTunes 10.5.2

I have iTunes running on Windows XP.
I try to update to the latest version of iTunes 10.5.2, by using the menu Help / Check for update. It found the latest version 10.5.2 and download it. During the installation, it says it cannot remove the previous version.
So i download the iTunesSetup.exe manually and install it. During the installation it looks for the file iTunes.msi in this folder but cannot find it so it stops: C:\ Documents and Settings\NetworkService\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple\Apple Software Update\
Help.

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

2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:

Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:
iTunes

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

I cannot update to the latest version of iTunes. Why not? My OS is Windows 7.

This is a new computer. It is 64 bits and I did get a note that said something about needing to change the installer to 64 bits. How do I do that?

See TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5.

This is a copy of ONEof the keys in the registry I changed as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so I downloaded the software and installed again.
Sorry, just this minute went to insert image and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content is not allowed?.
The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr SiRem GEARAspiWDN.
The GEARsoftware info about manually deleting GEAR drive is from:

PLEASE HELP!! Cannot install latest version of iTunes!

I know there are loads of questions on a similar theme but I am completely NOT technical and I find them really hard to follow. I use Windows 7 and until now I have had no problems with iTunes. I was bought a new iPod Nano and I couldn't use it until I had updated to the latest version of iTunes. When I tried to do this it wouldn't let me, I just got an error message. I have subsequently backed up my iTunes library, uninstalled iTunes and tried to install the latest version, I get the same error message:
An error message occurred during the installation of assembly ‘Microsoft. VC80.CRT.type=”win32”.version=”8.0.50727.6195”.publicKeyToken=”1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b ”.processorArchitecture=”x86’”. Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x80070002
I'm completely stuck now, can't even use my old iPod as I have no iTunes. I'm sure you're going to tell me to look in Windows Update - I did this but didn't have a clue what to do with that I found there! This is SO frustrating, I wish I'd just stuck with my old iPod.
Please help!

Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour and QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Installed latest version of iTunes, now I cannot play music through my Airport express. I'm seeing the message "An error occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device "living room". The network connection failed.

I have the same problem - did you solve it?

Cannot install latest version of iTunes 10.6.

Running 64 bit Windows Vista Home . Failed to install latest version of iTunes 10.6 with error message "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.......click OK , or enter an alternative path to a folder containing the installation package iTunes64msi"
After using this source in the box below and clicking OK it comes up with another error reading: "the file C:\Users|My name\AppData\Local\Apple Software Update\iTunes64msi' is not a valid installation package for iTunes. Try to find installation package 'iTunes64.msi" in a folder from which you can install iTunes".
As I could not find this file I then uninstalled iTunes, Bonjour, Apple Software Update, Apple mobile device support, and Quicktime and all related files as instructed from iTunes support page and tried to re-install all again. Unfortunately they all installed except iTunes which came up with the same error messages again.
Is this an Apple or Windows problem?...........HELP!

"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.......click OK , or enter an alternative path to a folder containing the installation package iTunes64msi"
(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the 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?

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

I just updated to the latest version of itunes, now when i plug in iphone it says "apple mobile device service is not started" what do I do??

I just updated to the latest version of itunes, n ow when I plug in my iphone, it says it cannot sync because "apple mobile device service is not started" this never happen before, what do I do??

The Apple Mobile Device Service is a part of sever programs that "help" iTunes on Windows. It may have been disabled in the Microsoft program, msconfig, or using a third party utility, such as CCleaner.
I would suggest trying to find and enable the service. To do so, click on the start button, click "run", and then type "msconfig" look for the iTunes Helper entry and make sure that it's enabled.
Additionally, there may be another service which you will have to enable. You can type something like "service.msc", (I'm not sure exactly) to see the "Services" control panel and look for it there.
If you can't find either, feel free to post here again.

Can't install latest version of itunes. "Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified." Help?

Can't install latest version of itunes. "Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified." Help?

I had this, and after a large number of fruitless attempts, I had to reload Windows, which solved it. This was of course a real pain, but I had to do it since updating iTunes was necessary in order to get the new iOS version. But before doing such a drastic thing, you could try to restore Windows to a previous point in time by picking a restore point. This of course presumes that you really have some issues with your Windows (which I had) and that you can make a decent guess on when the system was ok (which I couldn't), i.e that you can decide a good date to restore to.
