Error Message When Uninstalling Old iTunes for 7.7

When uninstalling (as a natural part of the process of installing 7.7) a message comes up saying that it cannot find iTunes.msi and asks me to find the file. I have no idea where it is. It isn't in either of the two suggested locations.
Any help is much appreciated.

a message comes up saying that it cannot find iTunes.msi and asks me to find the file.
With that one, let's try the following procedure.
First, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. If it goes, good. If it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to iTunes.
Next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
Now launch Windows Installer CleanUp ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"), find any iTunes and/or QuickTime entries in the list of programs in CleanUp, select those entries, and click “remove”.
Next, we'll manually remove any leftover iTunes or QuickTime program files:
(1) Open Local Disk (C:) in Computer or whichever disk programs are installed on.
(2) Open the Program Files folder.
(3) Right-click the iTunes folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion.
(4) Right-click the QuickTime folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. (Note: This folder may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
(5) Delete the QuickTime and QuicktimeVR files located in the C:\Windows\system32\ folder. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue. (Note: These files may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
(6) Right-click on the Recycle Bin and on the shortcut menu, click Empty Recycle Bin.
(7) Restart your computer.
Now try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly now?

  • Error message when connecting to iTunes says my new iPad 4 can't be connected as it requires version 10.7 or later. Surely a new iPad already has the latest version, and if it doesn't how do I get it?

    Not the iPad - your computer must be running iTunes 10.7 in order to sync. It has nothing to do with iTunes on the iPad.
    You can download iTunes for your computer here.

    It sounds as if your browser and some of your apps are not color-managed.  This is pretty typical.  Even IE9 is only partially color-managed.
    You can expect color-managed and non-color-managed applications to show you different things with the same images.  How different will depend upon how different your monitor color profile is from the image's color profile.
    For web publication and most general use, experts usually advise saving images with the sRGB profile.  If such images, saved through the Save for Web & Devices function, look different to you than you expect, it may be that your input images have previously been saved in another color space.
    You should really try to get your head around color-management by reading more on it.  It can seem baffling and it's difficult to understand without some background.  A quick web search turns up many overviews.  Beware, though, even people writing articles sometimes don't fully understand it.

  • Anyone else getting a timed out error message when trying to check for updates via the app store software on a desktop?

    anyone else getting a timed out error message when trying to check for updates via the app store software on a desktop?

    Hi, couple of things to try...

    Post subject: NSURLErrorDomain error -1100 in OS X 10.8
    If you check for software updates using the App Store in OS X 10.8 and get "NSURLErrorDomain error -1100" the problem may be with your Software Update preferences. This is particularly likely if you were using a custom Apple Software Update server. To solve the problem, quit the App Store, move the following two files (if present) to the trash, restart, and only then rerun App Store updates:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist.lockfile

    I was recently trying to upgrade to mountain lion through the app store.  I have unreliable Internet from a cable company whom I will not name, but we all know who they are.  My Internet dropped while downloading the upgrade.  Once I went through the notorious unplug the modem/router and plugged it back in to gain Internet connectivity again, I could not resume. No matter what I did, the app store kept displaying "an error occurred." I am hoping that those with the same issue read this first to save them hours of skimming through the Internet to find a solution.  Here are the steps to take:
    1. Make sure you have reestablished Internet connection
    2. Chances are you got frustrated when you tried to resume/unpause the download and clicked the "X" to the left.  If so, select the "Store" drop-down menu from the App Store and select "View My Account." There should be an option to unhide your purchase.  You know what to do.
    3. There is also an option to  reset all warnings for buying and downloading under "View My Account." Do this, click "Done," sign out of the App Store and quit the App Store.
    4. Open the Preferences in safari and select Privacy.  Select "Remove All Website Data."  Just do it.
    5. Launch the app store and sign in.
    6. Now, if you "Check for Unfinished Downloads" everything works peachy.
    I hope this helps.  Not much I can do for your Internet connection though.

  • HT1386 I am getting an error message that the old Itunes cannot be removed from my computer what to do??

    I tried to uninstall the old itunes as I read online if it did not recognise my Ipod that was what to do. I went in and uninstalled Itunes, Bonjour and Quicktime. Then I tried to download and install them again but it kept saying the old itunes could not be removed. Now what do I do?

    Then I tried to download and install them again but it kept saying the old itunes could not be removed.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Error message when no atachment found for the workitem while approving ?

    Hi Folks,
    I need some help in this issue please.
    Requirement is, Agent needs to attach a document to work item and then approve. To achieve this, i have put code in for complete execute condition of the step.
    This is how it works, when agent attaches doccument and approves, it completes workitem and when there is no attachment, it does not complete work item but it does not stop agent by throwing anykind of error message.
    I need a error message when there is no atachment found for the workitem and agent tries to approve it. Please suggest how i can get this done ?
    Thanks a lot in advance..

    Hi
    There a couple of different ways to accomplish this.
    If your not using standard task/methods your able to extend your method. In here just check if a document is attached, display a message with the message statement, or a FM (e.g. TH_POPUP_TO_INFORM), and then call the workflow statement "<b>Exit_Cancelled</b>", by doing this the workitem will stay in the inbox, in status in process until the document is attached.
    If your using standard task / Methods, you need to check if a document is attached in the workflow logic, preferably in a condition. Now - if no document has been attached create a loop, and within this loop create a task, for displaying the message. A easy solution here could be a simple decision task with only one Decision, or if you are able to do some ABAP development, create a small method for displaying the message.
    In order to make sure that this task/message will popup immediately, create a container element e.g. "Last_Agent", the do a binding from the decision task to the workflow container ActualAgent -> Last_Agent.  Now you Last_Agent as the agent for you "Display Message" Task

  • I keep getting a error message when I open iTunes asking me to reinstall the 64 bit version. I have reinstalled but still get the message.

    When I open iTunes I keep getting a error message asking me to reinstall iTunes 64 bit version. I have reinstalled but still get the message. Does anyone know a fix for this?

    This is obviously a problem apple! Please look at your community boards and see that a number of people have issues with the latest update and sort out.
    I have tried a number of times to install the update and have failed getting the same message as you. Tried with the 32 bit instead & no luck. Ive come on here to see if anyone else has a solution & found we all have the same problem. Someone else tried the old uninstall reinstall trick to no avail. Please sort this out apple!!

  • Error message when i start iTunes 7...HELP PLEASE!!

    whenever i start up itunes 7, i get an error message, and the details read:
    This error report includes: information regarding the condition of iTunes when the problem occurred; the operating system version and computer hardware in use; your Digital Product ID, which could be used to indentify your license; and the Internet Protocol (IP) address of your computer.
    PLEASE HELP! I JUST GOT MY iPOD TODAY AND I FEEL LIKE I'VE JUST WASTED $250!!!
      Windows XP  

    OK first we will see if the issue is on the PC side and not the iPod. Uninstall iTunes,Quicktime, and the updater from control panel>add/remove. Uninstalling iTunes will not delete any playlist, songs, ect ect.
    Then run chkdsk in windows to correct any lost or damaged system files. To do this goto "My Computer" rightclick the harddrive (Usually C Drive) Select properties>Tools tab and under "Error checking" hit check now. In the following window that appears, put a check beside "Auto fix file system errors" hit OK then hit yes in the next window. Reboot and after the check is done it will boot back into windows
    Now disable any antivirus/security/norton/mcafee products then download/install the latest iTUnes here http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ and iPOd updater here http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
    If this does not work check the system for malware (General term for adware and spyware) with Ewido, this program tends to catch alot of malware that messes with iTUne and iPod software http://www.ewido.net/en/download/
