Error message saying itunes wasn't properly installed

I installed iTunes on my computer but when I go to open it, I get an error message saying that iTunes wasn't properly installed. If I wish to import music or burn cds I have to reinstall it. I have removed iTunes and then reinstalled it, at least three times and I get the same error message. I also downloaded some music and I tried to sync it to my nano on a different computer and it's won't let me.

Error message saying "iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language"

When trying to launch iTunes I'm getting an error message saying "iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language. Please run the English version"? Any suggestions are much appreciated and thank you in advance!

Let's try a repair install of iTunes.
Restart the PC first.
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", and click "Change". Select "Repair" and click "Next" as per the following screenshot:
Can you launch your iTunes now?

Error message saying iTunes doesn't include software for iPhone

I get an error message saying iTunes doesn't include the software for iPhone. It says to uninstall and re-install iTunes. I have done it twice and both times I get the same error.

There is an entire iPhone forum here

I don't have one - perhaps you will be better off there, where most will?
Best of luck!

Quit iTunes, restart your computer, reset the iPad and try again.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Apple application support version 1.3 is installed, itunes requires 1.3.2 version or later. Please uninstall and re-install Itunes.

Is Apple Application Support currently showing up in your Add or Remove Programs control panel, Joseph?
If so, what happens if you try to uninstall Apple Application Support? Does it seem to uninstall properly, or do you get an error message? If you get an error message, what does the message say? (Precise text, please.)

I have been given a new ipod nano to replace my much loved but old ipod. When I plug it into my laptop to sync it I get an error message stating "itunes.exe - entry point not found. The procedure entry point AVCFAAssetCreateWithByteStreanAndOptions could not be located in the dynamic link library
AVFoundationCF.dll" I cannot acces my itunes or download a new versiona as this keeps flashing up. Any ideas? Please help, my life is meaningless without my music!!

Also I now can`t access any of my itunes library and am concerned that if I remove it from my computer I will lose everything as I have no option of accessing and therefore backing anything up. Any ideas?

Error message says Itunes on locked disk or no write permissions

I have used ITUNES recently but today when I started it up I get the following error message.
"the folder "Itunes" is on a a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this folder"
I tried to download a new version, same problem. HELP.

Hi there: I also have Windows 7. Anyways try this:
Right click on the ITunes shortcut desktop icon.
Choose "Properties"
**This will now open your tab for Itunes on the Shortcut tab. (look at the top, you'll see tabs like "Security, Details, Previous Versions" etc)
At the bottom of this page you will see 3 buttons: "Open File Location", "Choose Icon" and "Advanced".
Click on "Advanced"
Check the box that says "Run As Administrator".
I hope this works. It worked for me a couple minutes ago.

Follow these instructions to completely remove Apple software
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
Then use free Ccleaner to repeatly repair your registry until it's fixed.
http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download/standard
download iTunes again from Apple.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/
If you have 64bit Vista or Windows 7, look for the seperate download of iTunes for that further down the page.
Once installed, use the Apple Software Update under your Start Menu to fully update all Apple components.
Your content will remain on the drive in the Music > iTunes Folder, nothing is deleted.
You should be making backups of your content regularly, either through iTunes or via copying the iTunesFolder in your Music folder to a external drive.
Windows is notorious for having "other" issues that make it unstable, we as volunteers helping others can't always resolve those issues.

ITunes on my computer does not recognize my phone after 3 years. Error message says iTunes is not set up on phone. How do I rectify this?

ITunes is not recognizing my iPhone 4 after several years of using iTunes and an iPhone. I receive an error message that now says my Apple device is not set up for iTunes. Why would this stop working and what do I do to rectify the problem?

Log in to iTunes, go to "view your account info" on the itunes store, deauthorise all five, (Please Note: this can only be done Once every 12 months) and then re-authorize your current Computers one at a time.
