Hi Roy B
The 7.1 just would not install at all, giving the error message above every time. 7.0 was still on my system.
I did a disk clean up (someone said there might be fragments of my attempts to download 7.1 in temp folder that needed to be removed). I then ran a spyware scan and a full Norton system scan (just to be sure that I was 'clean' before attempting again). Then ran the registry mechanic that I just purchased and allowed this to 'fix' anything it found.
Finally I then went back to apple.com and tried another install from scratch - which worked! So...one of the above things worked - can't be certain which, but my guess is that it might have been the reg. mech.
7.1 has been working for a couple of days now... but dreading 7.2 etc...!
Good luck sorting out your probs...

  • Windows reports that iTunesSetup.exe is not a "valid Win32 application

    Every time I try to download iTunes, I receive the following error message: iTunes: Windows reports that iTunesSetup.exe is not a "valid Win32 application."
    I have followed the instructions on the support website (uninstalled all versions of iTunes and QuickTime then reinstalled QuickTime without iTunes and then tried to install iTunes again). I continue to get this message and it has not been resolved. Please help!!

    It might help to clear out Internet Explorer's temporary files then try downloading the iTunes software again.

  • It says 'iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application.'?

    The way my company has set up software installs means we have to save any application to the hard drive and then run it from there.  It's supposed to keep unwanted stuff from being loaded onto computers by less than tech savvy users, but it makes it hard to load even innocuous things like iTunes.
    When I 'save' instead of 'run' from the applet, I get a very brief download (comparatively) and then when I try and manually run the .exe file, I get the above statement in an error message.  If I select 'run' from the intital download popup, it takes much longer to download, but then can't load because it's not been run with admin privledges (which you do get if you download an application file first and then manually 'run' the install).  I suspect the two options don't give you access to the same files, but how can I download the actual install program to run it manually?

  • Trouble installing itunes -itunessetup.exe is not a valid win32 application

    I have trouble installing itunes. The following message appears: C:\Documents and Setting\Owner\My Documents\ itunsSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application. I tried the following but I still have problems: remove previous version of itunes, remove quicktime, install again quicktime as a standalone, delete temporary files, restart computer, delete all itunes related files.

    Finally an answer from Apple:
    Dear Stefanie,
    I understand that you're receiving an error when trying to open the iTunes
    installer that you downloaded. I'd like to try to help you resolve this issue.
    It appears that your web browser may be truncating your download of the iTunes
    software. I urge you to try using a different web browser to download iTunes. If
    this is not possible, you can also try using a different computer to download
    iTunes, and then transfer the iTunes installer file (iTunesSetup.exe) to your
    original computer and open it from there.
    Some transfer options would include using your iPod to transfer the file via
    hard disk mode, using a local network, burning a CD, using an external hard disk
    or a USB drive, or even sending the file to yourself via email or over an
    instant messaging network.
    I hope this information helps to resolve your iTunes installation issue. If it
    does not and you still need assistance from Apple, you will need to call Apple
    technical support (there may be a fee associated with the call). To find the
    appropriate phone number, please visit:

  • Loading itunes on computer that is does not have interenet access. have itunes setup on jump drive.  tried to run on computer and get the following error - "itunes64setup.exe is not a valid Win32 application"

    "itunes64setup.exe is not a valid WIN32 application"

    That suggests the installer got damaged when being downloaded to the computer that did have internet access.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser (on the computer with internet access):
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • Unable to open itunes, "itunessetup(1).exe is not a valid Win32 application

    Forgive me if I'm an idiot. I bought my husband an Ipod Shuffle for Xmas. I spent hours downloading the latest itunes only to have an error message pop up at the end that itunessetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application.
    I read another post about people having better luck with older versions of itunes and downloaded 6.0 with no problem, saved a cd on it, and then when i plugged in the Shuffle it gave me an error message that said it would only work with the newest version of itunes. The apple website recognizes that I have already downloaded the new version, but nothing will happen other than the error message. Husband is already saying I should just sell his new shuffle, and I'm feeling stupid that I can't figure it out...can anyone help please? Thank you.

    THis is a common problem for people downloading itunes on dail up and/or with corrupt versions in there temp folders.
    If you are on dail up, you need to first download and install whats called a "Download manager". These programs will usually make sure the download goes correctly, will start the download where it stops should the connection be lost, and can usually be set to re dail to your internet provider if the connection is lost (Handy for late nights when you goto bed and leave a big download going). Theres quite afew different ones out there usually free, Id recommend looking around on the net and get the one you feel comfortable with using.
    THen you can try the download again.
    Also try emptying your temp folder in your browser

  • 'mymusic/itunes.exe is not a valid win32 application' **help needed** !!

    As i double click on the desktop shortcut to open itunes, i get an error message which is the following: 'mymusic/itunes.exe is not a valid win32 application'. I now cannot access itunes or any of my media/music!
    Background... I updated to the latest version of itunes, downloaded a few apps and music and re-synced my iPod touch. I then clicked on itunes store, and itunes just closed down and would then not reopen and now repeats the error message everytime.
    I have attempted to repair itunes by downloading the setup software again, i have also tried removing itunes from my pc with the intention to re-install all over again, however it wont let me uninstall itunes either!!
    Anybody have any suggestions?

    Can you open iTunes if you go to Program Files\iTunes and double click on iTunes.exe.
    If so, you can create a new short cut by right clicking on iTunes.exe and selecting Send to>>Desk top(create short cut)

    Regards,

    You'd have to find out how and why that file became 0KB in size.
    If one file is 0KB in size, what assurance do you have that other files aren't
    also corrupted ?
    It could have been a virus-scanner wrongly attempting to quarantine the file,
    it could have been a backup-restore session that copied the file back as 0KB,
    it could have been some command that you executed in attempting the upgrade.

    Windows 8.1 ADK comes with a newer version of USMT (NOT 5.0) and crashes. I learned this today the hard way. I hope Windows 8.0 ADK's loadstate.exe works for restoring to a 8.1 machine.
    Yesterday i used Windows Easy Transfer to move from XP to 7, and then re-did the backup in 7 so it would be compatible with 8.1, and it only restores files, not settings.
    So i will test USMT 5.0 in this same scenario, because i have 30 machines to change to newer machines with 8.1
