cant install any version of itunes on windows vista, does anybody know of a fix?
Since you don't say why it won't install, here is what I have found to work on a Vista machine, 32-bit:
Download but do not install iTunes file from Apple site
Stop anti-virus and firewall
Restart computer
Login as Admin
Run iTunes installation
Turn anti-virus and firewall on
Restart and login as regular user
Vista likes to leave a lot of installers running in the background even when they finish and that interfers with the iTunes installer.

Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

When I connect my iPod nano 7th gen. to my computer and open itunes, there is a message that says the iPod could not be detected. Does anybody know how to fix this issue?
1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job.
7. Check for third-party software conflicts. -
Some weeks ago, I installed OS X Yosemite, as shown on my App Store, that was a "System Update available for my IMac 2009". Followed all the steps, normally and installed it as I did many other times ago (with the Maverick, Mountain Lion, OS X).
Just after the installation, I noticed that every single folder or program that depends on "Apple", stopped working.
Examples: Office package opens normally, so as Firefox. But, IPhoto, ITunes, Safari and App Store itself do not.
That is causing me fear, because even trying to reinstall Yosemite or return to the one I had before, using App Store became impossible. Even the "Apple Icon" on the top left corner does not work. I click, it flashes, just IF it was ready to open, but nothing happens, seams that have something stopping the "loading process" of the softwares.
Does anybody know how to fix the problem, please?
Thanks in advance. Regards.Thanks for your attention.
I Tried before, but the Mac App Store was not responding either, and worse, after 5 years, There is no free phone support
I ended up solving it by reinstaling the Yosemite pressing "comand + R"
thanks anyway

My dad has recently gotten a new phone and I got his old one. With his permission I restored it to factory settings and set up the iPhone 4 as a new phone with my apple id. Everything has downloaded fine but I have had many problems with my music. First it was where my phone didnt recognise my apple id, but I figured that out. Then it was where iTunes took one of my albums and split it so all the songs where their own albums. I fixed the album split on iTunes but its still like that on my iPhone. I have looked online everywhere and I still haven't found a solution! I'm getting super frustrated! Does anybody know how to fix this?
No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that. -
I can't delete apps on my iPad does anybody knows how to fix it. Also I can't open any iWork apps ,they open but won't show anything.
If the whole iPad freezes then something else is going on. Try this next. Close all apps in the recents tray and restart your iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. -

Why do i keep getting an error message of 2096 when installing any version of itunes
Why do I keep getting ann error of 2096 when downloading any version of itunes. It tells me to delete itunes and reinstall.
That one is often a compatibility mode problem. Try the following document, only be sure that none of the boxes in the compatibility mode tab are checked (not just the compatibility mode box itself):

I cannot burn cds from itunes. Every time I open itunes i get a message indicating i need to reinstall itunes. I have already done so but it's not working. I still cant burn cds. Does anybody know how i can fix this? My windows media player burns cds just fine.
I am having this same issue with Windows XP. The exact message that I get everytime that I open iTunes is :
The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers forimporting and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes. I have deleted and reinstalled iTunes three times. I also have a problem with iTunes randomly opening itself. -
When I go to download the software update, my computer says the old version of the software can't be removed. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Doublechecking before proceeding ... which particular program is it saying can't be removed? (Several different programs might be mentioned in this context: QuickTime, bonjour, Apple Software Update, etc.)

Repeated failure to install ANY version of iTunes...
I have two iPods, and, for the past three days, I have repeatedly failed at every turn to successfully install iTunes on a notebook with Windows Vista Home Premium. The issue began with failure to successfully download and run the latest update. I went ahead and uninstalled everything having to do with iPods and iTunes. I have repeatedly been presented with the message, "Verify that you have sufficient privileges...". I went into the command prompt and registry and zero'd out the administrator in the HKEY, per some instuctions I found elsewhere, which opened a new "Administrator" account. I have attempted to run any and all d/l versions of iTunes as the administrator. I even went back to an old CD-ROM that came with the Nano and tried to run that. Nothing. I've followed the recommendation made by Moose all over these forums and had no success.
Versions of iTunes I have attempted install and had no luck:
7.6.1.9
7.0.2.16
6.0.4.2
When I tried to install the iPod software from the CD-ROM, I got repeated messages that stated, "Couldn't Create Service".
"Service 'Apple Mobile Device' could not be installed. Verify that you have sufficient..."
"Service 'Bonjour service' could not be installed. Verify..."
"iTunes installer was interrupted before the requested operations...could be completed"
So I guess what I have now are a couple of very expensive paperweights. It is becoming increasingly difficult to not resort to violence! For the first time in six years, I've craved a cigarette!!!
Anyone?!?Can you install it using a different Windows user account?
Can you successfully install QuickTime standalone?

Itunes error 7 Unable to install new version of Itunes on Windows 7
I am stumped. Have tried to install the latest iTunes download on my PC (Windows7), have tried everything to get it to work. Uninstalled all Apple programs, disabled my anti-virus... so frustrating! Have been trying for a few hours and do not know what to do.
It looks like there is an error with the iTunesHelperFor 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 the 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.
If the advice above doesn't resolve things you could try this alternate version:
iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
Or roll back to the previous build:
iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)
