Help, I've have unistalled itunes and now can't reinstall. I keep getting error 1606, couldn't find network location and then error 1603 fatal error during installation. I have tried to empty my temp directory and restart, downloaded latest windows updates, cleaned up itunes installer. Any ideas on what to do now?
Thanks, dt

I keep getting error 1606, couldn't find network location and then error 1603 fatal error during installation.
hi Dianne!
hmmm. we treat that chain by dealing with the 1606. i think you might have already found the general advice given here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
... but also follow up on the specific link to the Installshield advice on the 1606 in that document.
keep us posted on your progress.

Want to buy QT 7, but cant get free version to install Errors 1714 and 1603

Hi all,
I was trying to install QT 7.x on this XP Pro machine and it failed and now after uninstalling QT and iTunes, I get errors 1714 and 1603 when trying to re-install iTunes.
I tried the QT installer by itself, will not install
http://www.freetochoosemedia.org/Itunesinstallerror.jpg
I went thru regedt32 and deleted all registries for items and QT and also all files, still no go.
And the above error message is pointing to a file that is right where the error says, so its not missing.
I have spent about 2 days trying to resolve this and WANT to BUY QT 7 pro, but not if it is never going to run onthis machine.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

I'm getting the same error messages when trying to install the latest version of Quicktime along with the message 'unable to locate file c:\windows\downloaded installations\{59C4F14F-7590-45FC-BE9F-A67AB3590709}\iTunes.msi
I'm also being instructed to contact my technical support group (whoever and wherever they are).
I tried running the program that Jacumba recommends to no avail.
I wouldn't mind being permanently without iTunes, or Quicktime come to think of it, but unfortunately I need Quicktime to use a training program that I've bought, and there doesn't seem to be an alternative.

HELP!!! getting errors 1335 and 1603

I've tried forever to install itunes 5 but I can't! Right before the installation ends, I get an error message that says:
Error 1335. The cabinet file 'iTunes.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-ROM, or a problem with this package.
Once I click cancel on the the error (There is a button for retry on the error but it still doesn't work) it asks if I want to quit and then I click yes and then another error pops up that says:
Error:-1603 Fatal error during installation.
Consult Windows Installer Help (Msi.chm) or MSDN for more information.
Ive tried so many times to install itunes and i get the same results. They dont give out an older version of itunes so i am basically screwed with no itunes a the moment. Also when it asks for me to consult to the Windows Installer Help, where can i look at that. Somebady please help me with my problem so i can get itunes back!
Daniel

okay, so choice of drive doesn't seem to be a factor.
I just went hunting on the web and found an alternate cause of this described for a different software package:
b quote
This error message can also occur under the following circumstances:
A. If you have an anti-virus application enabled during installation
B. If you are running Windows XP and have Norton Firewall on during the download and/or installation
The solution to (A) is to disable the anti-virus application during the installation of the program. That is, leave the anti-virus application on during the download of the LifeJournal demo, but disable the anti-virus program during the installation of the demo.
The solution to (B) is to disable the Norton Firewall during the download and the installation.
b end quote
b are
you running an antivirus or Norton Firewall during your installations? if so, i guess it can't hurt to download a copy of the installer to your hard drive, shut the antivirus and firewall down, and try the installation one more time.
love, b

Error 1402 and 1603 thinking of shooting myself

I have just purchased an ipod 30gb and have spent the last few days struggling to install quick time. I have tried everything in the troubleshooting guides on the forum
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.htlm?artnum=93865
nothing works still get the same error any suggestions or should I just return the ipod

You have removed QT by way of the add/remove programs control panel and did a search and deleted all left over components, that is very good and the way to remove a program. Now I believe you need to remove QT from the registry as well where the new QT installer cannot write into it, it could be permissions, but I think corruption.
HKEYLOCALMACHINESoftware+Microsoft+Windows+CurrentVersion
Uninstall- in there you want to delete the QuickTime uninstall key. With QT 6 it was unvise32qt. In QT 7 it will be a series of numbers that will look like this{3868A8EE-5051-4DB0-8DF6-4F4B8A98D083} for iTunes{872653C6-5DDC-488B-B7C2-CF9E4D0335E5}
Click once on a series of numbers to highlight, on the right it will show if it belongs to Apple Computer.
Delete the key and then run windows installer clean up utility, then try installing QT.

Hi! Need help! I downloaded Reader 9.1 and now it won't install Get error message "Error 1606. Could no access network location %APPDATA%\. I'm about ready to trash my computer! Thanks!

Hi! Need help desperately! I downloaded Reader 9.1 and it won't install. Get the error message "Error 1606. Could not access network location %APPDATA%\. Thanks!

Hello again:
I don't mean to step on any toes here but it seems that the root of the problem is being ignored. I offered before that the problems you are experiencing are due to inconsistencies in the Windows registry. While I could speculate on the various methods of how this came to be, I don't have that kind of time nor is there a need. More than likely it is some type of malware that has infected the system but that should be explored on more suited forums such as MajorGeeks.com or BleepingComputer.com. The way I see it, you have a few paths you can take, all of which will lead you to the same place: no more error 1606 and a functional Reader:
Option 1: Run the Windows Live OneCare free safety scanner to resolve any broken registry links it can find.
Option 2: Manually fix the "broken" registry entries in the Windows registry. While I understand Pat's hesitation to do so, the truth of the matter is it will resolve the immediate issue. Once the APPDATA path is corrected, you should then be able to install Reader.
Option 3: Restore Windows to a previous date using System Restore located in Help & Support of the Start menu.
Option 4: [SLEDGE HAMMER] Reinstall Windows over the top of the current installation (NO FORMAT). Use this option only if you have no other recourse. The potential to lose all personal data and settings is high if this option is not performed correctly. If this option is chosen, be certain to use a "setup" profile (username) different than your current username. If you only have a manufacturer's system restore disk rather than a Windows CD/DVD, you may not have the option NOT to format which WILL result in the loss of personal data. This option should only be performed by someone who has previous knowledge of such or is willing to learn even at the expense of data loss/time/effort.
I HIGHLY recommend that any and all personal data is backed up to an external location such as a USB key, CD/DVD, or external hard drive prior to performing option 2 or 4 above. If you would like any of the options explained in greater detail, feel free to ask and I will oblige.
Best of success!
Michael

Error 1606 on download of adobe reader 9.0

Could someone please help in answering this question for me. Trying to download adobe reader 9.0 getting error 1606 and it will not download. Do not know what to try??? Please help!!!!

I am running windows vista as OS. Cannot get adobe reader to download error 1606. Can someone please help.....

Acrobat X Pro and Error 1606

I am not able to install an update for Acrobat X Pro due to the Error 1606 problem. I have tried the Fix-It Wizard on the Microsoft webpage that's been recommended, to no effect.
I was able to install the update on a Win7 computer, but I can't install it on a machine running Win7 SP1.
Is there a solution? Can SP1 somehow be preventing the update from installing?
Perhaps a solution is to rollback SP1 and then try to install the Acrobat update, but even if it works, I don't want to have to do it each time Adobe releases a security patch or update to X Pro.

Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK.
Locate and then click the following registry key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ User Shell Folders
In the right pane of Registry Editor, double-click Common Administrative Tools.
In the Value data box , type the following line, and then click OK:%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools
On the File menu, click Exit to quit Registry Editor.
Restart the computer.
Thanks for these instructions.
I don't have Norton AV installed.
I've located the User Shell Folders as directed, but I don't have an entry in right-pane labeled Common Administrative Tools.
Should I create it, and then follow the rest of your instructions?
I'm using Win7 SP1. Please make sure your instructions pertain to that OS.
Much appreciated.

Error 1606 when installing i-tunes and i-pod updater

Have searched for answers to this problem with no luck so apologies if this is a repeat. I have tried down loading latest version of I Tunes and I pod updater. Neither would install and came up with the following error - error 1606.could not access network location %userprofile%\begin menu\program\startup".
I followed the instructions on the link to the Installer Web site for this Error and edited the registry (states that all entries (as listed) should refer to the correct drive i.e C: but did not show any examples.
All but one registry key was correct. I ammended a string of keys that all had %userprofile%\ as the start.
This allowed me to install ITunes however it would not add the several thousand songs that were alreday on the computer no matter what i did. So I changed the registry back and hey presto there was 4.9 with all my songs.
However I still can not intstal ipod updater either from the disc that came with shuffle or from the download.
Can any one please help??? Either tell me what to cahnge the registry keys to or explian how this has happened anyway.
I have purchased 5 pods of one type or another for various people on three different computers. Updated all software regularly and never had this problem.
Thanks
Paul

Yes ...followed the link and all instructions on it but not very confident about editing registy keys. Have also checked Microsoft but all that gave was more info on Registry editing.
I have managed to by pass this problem by logging in as another user and installing software. Worked without problem but I have compared the registry entries and all seem the same!
Very Strange.
