Downloading itunes9

Question

I tried to this and ever since I did an error message keeps coming up saying "the software required for communicating with ipods and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want itunes to try and repair this for you" I answer "yes" but the error message just keeps popping up again. I have tried uninstalling itunes and reinstalling about 4 times

Answer 1

Okay. The 64-bit instructions in that document still aren't quite accurate for 64-bit versions of Vista and 7 ... so it's worth running through them again, with the exception that when you get to *step 9* of the *Verify iTunes and related components are completely uninstalled* section, proceed with the following modified instructions instead:
(9) Right-click the Apple folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
Note: If you have a 64-bit version of the Windows OS, continue with step #10. Otherwise, skip to step #17.
(10) Open the Program Files (x86) folder.
(11) Right-click the iTunes folder (if it still exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion.
(12) Right-click the iPod folder, choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(13) Right-click the QuickTime folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(14) Right-click the Bonjour folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(15) Open the Common Files folder.
(16) Right-click the Apple folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(17) Open Local Disk (C:) located in Computer or whichever hard disk your operating system is installed on.
(18) Open the Windows folder.
(19) For 32-bit versions of Windows: Open the System32 folder.
For 64-bit versions of Windows: Open the Syswow64 folder.
(20) Right-click the QuickTime file (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(21) Right-click the QuickTimeVR file (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(22) Right-click the Recycle Bin and choose Empty Recycle Bin.
... any better luck with the modified instructions?
