Deleting itunes errors

I'm trying to upgrade to the new itunes but it wouldn't let me so I had to delete my old itunes, but didn't know you have to delete everything that has to do with itunes in a specific order, so now my itunes wont play any of my bought music & now when i try to delete itunes it says error "invalid drive: E:\" i don't have a E drive and im sooo dang frustrated with this itunes!!!

Plug some USB device into your PC so there is an E: drive.
USB memory stick, digital camera SD card, printer, whatever you've got...once something is listed under drive E: in WIndows Explorer, try the itunes upgrade again.

Deleted itunes by accident and now can't reinstall it due to error message

I deleted Itunes on my Windows 7 computer by accident and when I went to reinstall it, I got an error message saying "There is a problem with this windows installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact you support personnel or package vendor." What do I do now?!

How do I manually delete iTunes when I want to re-install the latest program? Error says I have no permission so how can I get permission?

How do I manually delete iTunes and all its bits prior to re-installing the version 11 when I get a message saying I don't have permission.
I am the sole owner of my p.c. and nobody else uses it. How do I "get permission" from my own p.c.?
The p.c. is a Dell Vostro running windows 7 (64 bit) After giving up and exiting iTunes there was an error notification saying msvcr 80 is missing from your computer...Also, when I went (blindly) to administrators etc there was a red question mark against a gobbledegook long line apart from David pc which is me. Would this be some malevelant thing? Help!

Hi David,
Open the start menu, then select Control Panel in the right hand column. Open the Programs and Features section, type Apple in the search box at top right. You need to uninstall the components in the order suggested in the user tip.
Once all have been uninstalled reboot and use Windows Explorer to locate the named folders and delete them. Then reinstall.

This helped me.
Go to Start -- Accessories -- Command Prompt, make right click and choose run as administrator
Type this command : netsh winsock reset
then restart your computer, everything should be ok after this. Good Luck.

How can I reinstall iTunes to my iPad2? It was deleted in error by my grandson and now my app store does not work at all.

my app store does not work at all.
Try resetting:
Hold both the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.

I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet "

iTunes told me to delete my backup folder when I was having problems syncing my phone to my computer. After that it wouldn't work at all. After trying and trying I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet ". What the **** itunes? Nothing is working!!
I wanted to update my iTunes so I could sync my phone to my computer and update my phones software so I can use the latest apps that need a 4.2 or higher.
This is not fun for me so if anyone knows what I can do to fix this please help. Is it possible to download the "cabinent file" with the lastest iTunes?
Thank you.

My phone is the iPhone4 and my computer is a Windows Vista

I doubt that corrupt files are the problem. It is more likely a space or permissions issue. Is the hard-drive on which iTunes is stored close to capacity? Do you (or the particular user profile you have logged on with) have the requisite permissions to save to that drive?
Otherwise, do you get an error code? This might point us in the right direction.

ITunes error message -39

Hi,
I'm running an eMac 10.3.9, iTunes 6.0.4 and an iPod 30gb photo.
I started having problems a few days before the latest iTunes update came out earlier this week, with iTunes not quitting and it not being able to find the library.
Now with the iTunes update, I get the error message
"the iPod cannot be updated. An unknown error occurred (-39)"
I have run Disk Warrior 3.0.3 over the disk and the iPod with no change.
I have run Onyx and Yasu to reset permissions, cron etc etc. with no change.
There is no reference to iPod/iTunes error -39 on the Apple website nor in this forum.
I have changed USB ports with no change.
The iPod appears in the iTunes menu and the battery charges. I can also open the iPod disk and work with the contents.
I have reset the iPod with no change. I used the 'hold the central button and Menu at the same time' trick, so could go one step further and delete everything from the iPod and start again.
But that is assuming the problem is with the iPod. If the problem is with iTunes I won't be able to reload all my songs onto the iPod.
Any hints appreciated.
Tim
eMac 1.25gHz Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Problem resolved by restoring iPod to factory settings and reloading all the songs.
Prior to this I deleted iTunes and downloaded a new version from the Apple site. This did not resolve the error -39 message.
Then I took the plunge and restored the iPod. Works fine now.
I'm posting the fix to help anyone into the future with the same problem.

HT1926 Have the same problem as many other users: tried to update iTunes on Windows 7 today; first message "unable to locate component- MSVCR80.dll was not found" then "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes - Error 7 (Windows error 1

I have the same problem as many other users: updated iTunes on Windows 7 on Jan 26, 2014 and iTunes does not open. First message "unable to locate component- MSVCR80.dll was not found" then "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes - Error 7 (Windows error 126)". When will Apple fix this? Don’t feel like uninstalling all Apple software and then re-installing it as suggested, as I am on a terribly slow internet connection while travelling in the DR Congo.

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 press on)
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.

I'm trying to delete itunes so i can eventually reinstall

I have been trying to download the newest version of itunes, but an error message kept occurring and I haven't been able to complete the download. So to fix this problem, I decided to delete itunes and all of its components and start fresh. I am able to delete all of the components such as apple support and bonjour. but when i have tried to delete itunes, a message appears saying the resource i'm trying to access is on a network that is unavailable and i can't delete it.

(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
Here's a screenshot showing the particular links on the page that you should be clicking:
After clicking one of the circled links, you should be taken to another page, and after a few seconds you should see a download dialog appear for the msicuu2.exe file. Here's a screenshot of what it looks like for me in Firefox:
Choose to Save the file. If the dialog box does not appear for you, click the link on the page that says "CLICK HERE IF IT DOES NOT". Here's a screenshot of the page with the relevant link circled:
When the dialog appears, choose to save the file.
(2) Go to the Downloads area for your Web browser. 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?

Itunes error on start up

When i open itunes, you just see the outline and then it says an error occured and closes. Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling about 20 times. Whats gooooing ooooooonnnnnnnnnn?

hi Sinnful Dayz!
okay, i think we're still probably on the right
track. it's a little disconcerting that QT refused to
launch without an error message for you. but
when you did the standalone reinstall:
"Error Number: 0x80040707
Description: DLL function call crashed:
QTInstallCode.QuicktimeUnInstallProc
... in this context, that usually indicates a broken
existing QT where the QT installation configuration
information has been compromised in some way. so
we'll keep proceeding under the assumption that your
itunes error message is being caused by a
broken QT.
we'll try applying the standard tactic for getting
past the 0x80040707.
Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp
utility. use it to remove any existing
QuickTime installation configuration on the
PC:
Descrip
tion of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
... then use the QuickTime component of the
complete uninstall instructions in the following
document as a guide to a manual removal of leftover
QuickTime program files and folders:
Trouble installing iPod, iTunes, or QuickTime
software in Windows
once we've scraped away all the old QT, let's try
another careful standalone QT reinstall.
does the QT reinstall go through okay this time? if
it does, does your itunes launch again?
love, b
Got this far with same exact problem, b, but I can't scrape away the old QT. I get a access denied error when I try to delete the QT folder, specifically the qttask.exe file. I also can't stop the process in the Task Manager, same reason.
I am logged in as the admin, I can't think of anything else?!
