Cannot update to iTunes 8.2 - get error message, please help???

I have Windows Vista. When I try to update to iTunes 8.2 (which I need for the new iPhone 3Gs I bought yesterday), I get this error message:
"Errors Occurred while installing the updates. If the problem persists, choose 'Tools > Download Only' and try installing manually"
I've read a lot of the posts and tried 'repairing' the Apple Software Updater, and that doesn't work.
Can someone point me in the right direction?? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I am in the same boat.
I originally had the same error. So I tried the following unsuccessfully:
- Download Only, several times and on 2 different computers, one with XP and one with Vista o/s
- Downloading from the Apple site, several times over the last 3-4 days and each time it gets to a different % downloaded and then stops and after a while returns an error.
- I've tried uninstalling iTunes and Quicktime
- I've tried clear the cache, delete all cookies etc.
I upgraded my phone using a friends computer and now I can't connect to iTunes at all as it is not compatible (and the computer I uninstalled it from I can't download it to reinstall.
Not sure what else to try. A friend warned me that iTunes was problematic and frustrating to use, but I bought an iPhone anyway and now understand what they mean!

  • I have updated to the latest OIS on my IPad but cannot install the update for ITunes.  I get error messages that I must log on as administrator (don't know how) and I can't use my ITunes now. Help please

    I have updated to the lastest OS on my IPad3. No problem there. Then found I could no longer access my Itunes as there was a message 'Cannot be used as it requires version 10.6.3 or later. Go to ... and download'.  I have tried four times and it won't work.  I get another message saying I must sign in as administrator or contact my system administrator.  I am the only one who uses this PC and have no idea what my administrator password is.  Now I cannot use ITunes. Please help if you can.  Thank you.  Eileen Frost

    Many thanks diesel.  I cannot remember ever having an administrator password. Looks like I shall have to do a restore on my PC and not bother with the updates.  Or maybe I could find my password from somewhere ? When I went into control panel I found a box with administrator and my name and it said password protected so I must have had one at some time. Any ideas on how I could find it ? Many thanks anyway. I always use a password to sign on but obviously that is not it.  Eileen

  • Can't download itunes - security zone policy error message - please help!

    Hi there,
    I have had an ipod for a while now but can't use it as everytime i try to download itunes I just get the following error message;
    This download has been blocked by your security zone policy - edgesuite.net.
    I am using firefox on a windows vista with norton security protection. If you have any suggestions on how I can resolve this I would really appreciate it!

    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.

  • I can't update itunes. I get error message can't find "itunes.msi". What can I do?

    What can I do to download updated itunes. I get error message can't locate "itunes.msi." folder.

    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. 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 iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Keep getting the error message "cannot connect to iTunes..." error message (-3212)??, keep getting the error message "cannot connect to iTunes..." error message (-3212)??

    I keep trying to upgrade my iPad using iTunes..The error message "cannot attach to iTunes store...error message (-3212).  Suggestions?

    I get that problem once in a while and I will not be able to connect to the Internet with any of the 5 or 6 (or 7 or 8 ) web browsers that I use on my iPad. The one thing that I do that has never failed to work for me is to close all apps on my iPad and reset the device. I can't guarantee that it will work for you, but this works for me every time I get the server failed to load/can't connect to the Internet message.... Or whatever the exact message is.
    If you have a ton of apps in the multitasking display, it can take a while to close them all, so you could just trey resetting the iPad first and that might be all that you need to do.
    Closing apps in iOS 7 works like this. Drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    i cannot get my phone out of recovery mode, when I tried to restore on itune it gives me error 1608. please help me

    While YOU may not have attempted to jailbreak the phone, SOMEONE ELSE did.  Error 1015 occurs by attempting to restore a previously jailbroken phone. 
    It's very likely you may NEVER get your phone out of recovery mode and your phone may be rendered permanently bricked.
    Terms of Use of this forum prohibit the discussion of jailbroken phones.  You'll have to scour the internet for a solution to your problem, if indeed one exists.

  • Trying to download Itunes and am getting error messages 7 and R6034

    Trying to download Itunes and am getting error messages 7 and R6034?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

    Cannot sign into Elements 9. Get Error message 400-photoshop services unavailable

    They're not available because photoshop.com is dead and gone, and any photos there are moved to revel, which you can't access through PSE versions prior to PSE 11. You should have received a bunch of emails about this back when it was happening.

  • I can't install itunes for windows get error message 5

    i can't install itunes for windows get error message 5

    I've been having the same issues for the past year and a half. I've spent 6-8months trying to figure it out. Went to various Itunes stores with pictures on my Iphone per each step so I could relay all information that I'd come across and the personnel were less than helpful, after conversations that would sometimes last an hour between myself, employees and managers they always came back to "simply uninstall then reinstall" when I told them for the thousanth time that I've done that multiple times and my errors are happening while trying to reinstall it they act stumped and say "well then I'm not sure, I'll give you a call if I figure it out" and disappear. I've been very disatisfied at the lack of support from Apple and if Android to piece together a reletively reliable phone I'd switch to them in a heartbeat. I'll follow this question incase someone can answer this, but I don't have much faith.
    BTW, wifey has Windows 7 running on the laptop and my phone syncs just fine to that and no trouble with itunes, just mine (desktop).

  • Trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings

    trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings. What am I to do?

    The storage you purchased is in the cloud, and doesn't do anything with your pad.  Your problem is simply that you have too much content on your pad.   Go to settings, general, usage, and it will show you how much space you have avaliable on your pad.  If you let the screen sit for a while, all the apps will be displayed, and you can see how much stuff you have associated with each.
    You have to no option but to delete some of the content on your pad.  Videos, comics, pitcures and some music files use a lot of space.   The cloud allows you to leave stuff there, so you can get it when you need it.
