Error-1603 when installing Itunes on PC

Hi
I just got a Ipod Nano, and installing Ipod updater went fine, but in the middle of Itunes installing it stop and an error came up.
hkeylocalmachine\software\classes\.cdda\openWithProgids
Error 1603
and installment stoped.
any help would be nice
thx

hi Sofie!

okay, even though you didn't get a 1402 or a 1406 with that message, i think you should start with this document:
Error 1406 or 1402 appears when you install iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
i've noticed that for some folks with european localisations of Windows, they don't get the error message numbers with those messages referencing registry keys. but problems with those keys generally are 1402s or 1406s on other localisations of Windows.
(generally we only attack the 1603 directly if folks get it as a standalone error. if it shows up at the end of a chain of error messages like this, we should try to deal to the first error in the chain. if we can fix that, the 1603 should go away of its own accord.)

I get an Error 7 (Windows error 126) when installing itunes to my laptop. Got this after last upgrade attempt. Uninstalled and tried reinstalling, but get same message

If that particular Error 7 message is preceeded by a different error message titled "iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found", try the following user tip:

Yes, this is a known defect: CSCue69477 - CTI Route Port Synch Issue with CUCM. As per the bug:
"This issue will occur if the "SUBSCRIBE Calling Search Space" under Protocol Specific Information in the Template for the CTI Route Ports is configured. To work around this, the "Owner User ID" under Device Information for the Template needs to be configured."

Error 1603 when Installing JMS

Hi, I am doing a training period and i just tried to install JMS Standalone 3 2005Q1, on Windows Server 2003 R2 SP1.
When launching setup.bat, an error 1603 occurs, saying that a file cannot be modified because it's in used but the installation goes on.
The first time, the installation goes right and i could test JMS and the helloworld message.
Back from week end, nothing, imqadmin occurs an error. I re install, still an error, actually nothing at all.
According to Microsoft's web site, error 1603 are due to limite access. I've ADMIN access, so could you give me a hand please.
i tried to be the most exhaustive on my problem, in the best english i could
thx

Okay, I really need this to be fixed. I've already tried the "ultraclean" install and a bunch of other crap, but iTunes and the iPod Updater refuse to come off my computer. In Add/Remove Programs, like I said before, there are 4 iPod Updaters, with 2 of them without a button, and the two that have the button to remove, it doesn't work. There are also 2 iTunes.
Oh, and the QuickTime standalone works, but I uninstalled it in hopes I could get iTunes to work again. Also, when I run the iTunes installer, where it's supposed to show the destination folder, it's blank, and I have to type it in manually.

Error 1603 when installing

Okay, when I tried to install iTunes 6 (and previous versions of iTunes), I got the error 1603.
Now, on the installshield support site, I've tried everything there, and the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility doesn't work on my computer. Now, when I go to the Control Panel, there are instances of iPod and iTunes on there, but there's no uninstall button.

My computer wasn't running in safe mode and ive gotten this message many times when i have tried to redownload it so it must be an ongoing problem. What should i do?

Invalid Drive Error 1326 When Installing iTunes for Windows

I used to have an external usb 2.0 portable drive. It since has been uninstalled and trashed. When I tried to log into iTunes it said that some of the files are missing and to uninstall. I uninstalled from Control Panel - itunes, quicktime, ipod- then deleted the files that the support site said to. When I tried to re-install, i get the error that Drive G is invalid- error 1326. Any ideas????
By the way- I couldn't find the files in C:- Windows- System 32 to delete- they weren't there-
Thanks!

Error 2 - when installing iTunes

Please help me. Not sure when/how this happened or what led to it, however :-
My I-tunes stopped working, so it advised I should un-install and re-install the program. I've read all the help avail on I-tunes and M'soft. I've un-installed all related programs, installed the M'soft install cleanup wizard, I am positive I've removed all installation files that may be hidden.
It STILL says, once I re-download the 64 (and/or the 32bit) version, that:
"Apple Application Support was not found.
Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again. Error 2."
Please help.
What do I do?
Thanks in advance,
IT-hopeless
(PS I just watched True Blood for the first time and i'm hanging to buy some more episodes, if some1 could reply.. that would be great!!!)

I've read all the help avail on I-tunes and M'soft. I've un-installed all related programs
Hmmmm. Unfortunately, at the time that I write this post, the Apple documentation on "verifying that iTunes and related componentry is uninstalled" *is inaccurate for 64-bit systems.* The program files are in different locations than on 32-bit systems.
So, just to be sure, we'll try going over the uninstall/reinstall of iTunes and Apple Application Support one more time, with accurate instructions on checking that program files have been completely removed. We'll take a few other explicit precautions along the way, too.
Preliminaries
Download and save a fresh 64-bit iTunes installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install on line and don't start the iTunes install just yet.)
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL925
Now, quit QuickTime (if you have that open) and Safari 4.0.4 (if you have that installed and open). Both applications use Apple Application Support, and they will interfere with the uninstall if you have them open.
*Uninstall phase*
Head into your "Uninstall a Program" control panel. Uninstall iTunes. Uninstall Apple Application Support (if an entry exists in there for that).
(From this point on until we reinstall Apple Application Support, neither QuickTime nor Safari 4.0.4 will be able to run.)
Next we'll remove any leftover program files and folders.
(1) Open "Local Disk (C:)" or whichever drive your program files are stored on.
(2) Open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
(3) Right-click on the iTunes folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
(4) *Staying in Program files (x86),* find and open the "Common files" folder.
(5) Open the "Apple" folder.
(6) Right-click on the Apple Application Support folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
(7) Go back to "Local Disk (C:)" or whichever drive your program files are stored on.
(8) Open the "Program Files" folder.
(9) Right-click on the iTunes folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
Now empty your Recycle Bin and restart the PC.
*Reinstall Phase*
After the PC restarts, do not open any other applications. Disconnect from your network and/or the internet. Switch off all your security software (firewall, antivirus and antispyware).
Now start the install by doubleclicking the iTunes64Setup.exe file you downloaded earlier.
Reenable all security software prior to reconnecting to your network and/or the internet.
Did the install seem to go through okay? If so, does iTunes start launching properly again?

Micorsoft Error Report when installing itunes need!!!

I installed itunes the first time and everything ran smoothly. Then, my disc drive ceased to work and i could intsall, import or play nothing on my pc. This annoyed me somewhat so i attempted to fix it by using XP system restore to the point after i installed itunes. This all went to plan excpet my disc drive still didn't work. Increasingly unhappy i used system restore again but this time to a point before itunes was installed. This fixed my disc drive but when i attempted to install intunes again i got a microsoft error report after the ipod driver had installed and just before Quicktime starts. After constant system restoring it's still the same. I tried deleting everyfile to do with itunes and quicktime but some wouldn't delete i tried anyway and it didn't install again.
The error reports says it will take one file, this is the end of the file:
\LOCALS~1\Temp\3a27_appcompat.txt
I don't know if thats any use but i really need some tips.

NO, this seems to be seen only in the Packard Bells, which leads me to believe its some sort of Packard Bell issue. Here is how to resolve it...
To resolve this behavior, follow these steps:
Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
Locate the UpperFilters value under the following key in the registry:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
Locate the LowerFilters value under the same key in the registry:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
This is to get your CD drives working again btw. Looks like you have done all this uninstalling which can lead to other errors.
