Downloaded itunes 7 update but it cannot find the installation file

I have had itunes installed and being used for about 3 years. I have the apple update utility loaded so i get notifaction of the lastest versions as the become available.
Following the most recent upgrade my itunes failed to load as it is telling me it cannot find the installation package as it is located on a network drive. (this is a standalone pc).
I cant open the version that was installed as it tells me i can only open installed items. To add insult to injury i cant remove it or install an earlier version.
Basically i cant use my ipod as i cant open, remove or re-install itunes. To say i am annoyed by this is an understatement.
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Following the most recent upgrade my itunes failed to load as it is telling me it cannot find the installation package as it is located on a network drive. (this is a standalone pc).
with one of those, let's try the following procedure.
first, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. if it goes, good. if it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to itunes.
next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. use it to clear any existing itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information from the PC.
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
next, use the the following document as a guide for manual removal of leftover itunes and quicktime program files:
Removing iTunes and QuickTime for Windows
now try another itunes install. does it go through properly this time?

  • The debugger has finished stepping, but it cannot find the source file

    Hi guys, has anyone seen this message while debugging? I've just installed 1.5 and I'm getting it all the time. SQLDeveloper doesn't show on the screen the anonymous block that handles the debugging, even though it seems to be working with it. Tks in advance for your kind advice.

    Hi, I get it during the debugging. In the former version, debugging starts by calling the original function or procedure, and then it goes to an anonymous block, the test block that calls the function/procedure being debugged (usually two anonymous functions.) And the debugger goes step-by-step in the anonymous block.
    But in the new version the debugger works only for the original function and then there is the error of the title, and when you tell the debugger to go ahead anyway (ignore the file,) it goes step-by-step through the anonymous blocks, but nothing is shown on the screen... I am puzzled... I am trying to test it in another PC to see what happens (it seems to be an installation problem)

  • TS3988 cannot find the photo files in iCloud

    I've been a Mac nut for 20 years, so I feel puzzled. But i cannot find the photo files in iCloud in order to download a few I want onto my macbook air. ideas?

    The only way to sync photos between mac and devices is to use Photo Stream, but you cannot view photo files in icloud.com.  Do a search (or google search) on photo stream to get all the info on this service.
    BTW, if you had a MobileMe account and are trying to find photos in the gallery, there is no such service in icloud.  All the mobileme galleries are deleted by now.
