Error Message 2755 w Quicktime itunes install

HI,
I have itunes version 6 and quicktime 7.3.1 on an HP PC running Windows XP Pro SP2 I wanted to download some things from NPR.com and the site seems to think I do NOT have itunes or quicktime. So it sends me to the download pages.
When I try to download itunes and quicktime together, I get an error message that says "The installation of quicktime did not complete successfully. itunes requires quicktime " (no error code)
When I tried installing JUST quicktime i get the message "the installer has encountered an unexpected error - this may indicate a problem with the package - The error code is 2755.
Any advice is most gratefully appreciated. Thanks!

Make sure your media is backed up to someplace safe and that you have all your account info, then go nuke your iTunes install.
*You have to get everything* and yes this will cost you your play list, counts, etc.
Empty the recycle bin and dump any temp files.
Now download a fresh copy of iTunes and install from that download.

    Did you follow the exact instructions in this Apple support document to remove and re-install iTunes and ALL other Apple software on your XP machine?

  • Error message -50 ever since I installed new version of iTunes... weird!

    A few days ago I installed the new/updated version of iTunes from the 'automatic prompt' which informed me there was a newer version of the software available.
    Now, ever since I've been using iTunes upon start-up I get this weird thing happening:
    1- ITunes opens, no problem
    2- Progress bar appears on screen saying "Updating iTunes library" (which never happened before I installed the new version on iTunes)
    3- An Error message appears saying "the iTunes Library files cannot be saved. An unknown error occurred (-50). Do not warn me again"
    Well, my iPod seems to be sync-ing fine and I've not lost any music, so I'm confused as to what this error message actually means.
    If anyone can shed any light on this or what I've done wrong I would be most grateful.
    I don't fancy losing all my podcasts and music! Ouch...
    Thanks!

    I would check macfixit.com . there are several articles about fixing the -50 error. The latest article is free, the others require a subscription. This is from their very helpful site:
    Another option for recreating the library to resolve -50 errors We previously reported that a full library deletion and restore may be required to eliminate -50 errors that occur while iTunes 7.3 is launching. The process we mentioned involves backing up the music library to another location, then deleting the original library and finally re-importing. However, you can also simply backup then create a new library at launch and re-import, as follows:
    1. Quit iTunes
    2. Backup your iTunes library (the folder ~/Music/iTunes) to a separate location (can be on the same volume)
    3. Launch iTunes while holding down the option key and follow the steps to create a new library
    4. In iTunes, choose Import from the FIle menu
    5. Select the backed up ~/Music/iTunes as a source folder
    6. Restore any deleted preferences

  • HT4623 Unable to update applications installed.Error message "unable to connet iTunes" appears after installation icon hanging

    Since last two weeks I am unable to update my applications installed in iPad with iOS 6. Also no new app is getting installed. Installation icon appears but after some time error message "unable to connect iTunes " appears.Can some one guide me to solve this problem please?

    I've had similar problems. Whenever I try and update apps on the iPhone, the app would apparently download ok, but then not install. This didn't happen with new apps - only ones I was updating.
    I got around the issue by downloading the update in iTunes on my Mac, then deleting the app from the phone, then syncing. The problem with this method is that certain apps had saved settings which are lost when following this method.
    However... I seem to have fixed the issue after 2 months of trying.
    I followed the advice of this page:
    http://www.iphoneatlas.com/2008/09/10/itunes-8-workaround-for-5002-unknown-error -when-trying-to-update-apps/
    Then I repaired disk permissions and finally I completely erased and restored my iPhone BEFORE I synced it after the moving of the Mobile Applications folder.
    It's all working perfectly now and made my life much easier (especially with Aurora Feint updates), so I hope that this method works for some others.
    Good luck.

    I downloaded the latest iTunes version and now get the following error message: "This copy of iTunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly. Please re-install iTunes." Can anyone provide suggestions on what I should do next?

    Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
    Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    Can you launch your iTunes now?

  • Itunes won't update.  I download the updates, but then get an error message that they failed to install.

    For many weeks now, my iTunes has failed to update.  I download the updates and they go through the installation process, but then I get an error message that they failed to install.  How can I update?

    Wild guess but if your WinXP system has formatted your drive(s) as FAT32 then the maximum file size is 4GB.  Could be that the download in 1080p is >4GB?  (if formatted NTFS then this should not be a problem).
    Again just a guess with iTunes on WinXP but something easy to check first.

  • I am trying to update itunes software to 10.5 but I get an error message saying to try manually installing and I try that and it still doesn't work, Help!!

    I am trying to update itunes software to 10.5 but I get an error message saying to try manually installing, HELP!!!

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

    You got it downloaded and I assume you mean it is installed as well.  It was buggy for me.
    I had to close and restarted iTunes before I could use it properly.
    Then, I had to unplug and replug in my phone before it recognises it.
    Just had to try everything.  As final choice, update over the air.  I try to avoid it as it tends to have more problems than a tethered update.

    It worked before.

    Open Disk Utility via Spotlight or in the Applications folder stored within the Utilities folder. Close all applications and 3rd party software and choose "Repair Disk Permissions." Reboot the computer when finished, and test to see if the issue is resolved.

    Hello mvguillet,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with installing the latest iTunes update.  I recommend following the steps below:
    Resolution
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    I understand that you have already uninstalled iTunes, but when you get to this step, it is important to uninstall iTunes and the related components in the order listed in the link for that step.
