Error - The software required for the ipod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall itunes to install the required sotware
When trying to load music from ITunes to my ipod I receive the error "The software required for the ipod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall itunes to install the required sotware"
What should I do to correct the error?
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies. The notes below the box include tips on removing troublesome components.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

After multiple installations of iTunes it can be frustrating when the issue isnt resolved. I was able to locate the following knowledge base article that specifically addresses the "Error 7" you are recieving.
iTunes for Windows: "Error 7" message when opening iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3074
The Resolution section has different steps depending on what version of the Windows Operating System you're using. Since it can be a bad installation of these Windows files, pay close attention to the instructions on repairing if the file already exhists.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities with your question.

Software required is not installed correctly, please reinstall Itunes
I've been at my Dad's house helping build some tables in the past couple of months. I've turned on my pc last sunday and had 15 updates from windows update., so i let it download and install them as i was unpacking.
I started up iTunes and it said there was an update, so I installed the new version, along with the new firmware.
Since then, I get the erro:
"The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iYunes to install the iPid's software."
I've gone through all the 5 R's, http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716, but I can stil see it on my pc, but not iTunes or the Updater.
I've ended the iPodservice.exe, restart, use iTunes/updater, but the iPodservice.exe is running before I use them, but is gone when I use either iTunes or the updater. I can't find anything in the event viewer stating anthing wrong.
I've read other threads, a bit annoyed of how the forum has the posts set left and right and not in exact order of date and time of post, but that's my opinion. But yet I have not found a explanation of why this is happening, and a most accurate way to fix this.
If anyone needs to know, I'm using a 5gen 30gig iPod. I never had this problem before or any problem before either.
Only thing I can assume is window's current updates messed it up just to make the Windows visa look good when it comes out.First, for the forum view issue. Go to My Settings (on the right) and in General Settings change the Topic Page View to Flat. Click Save. Posts should show up in the order they were written.
Have you seen this?
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93764
Also, since you said that you've gone through the 5 Rs, I would assume that you used the iPod Updater to restore (since there is no other way of doing it and you don't "run" the 5 Rs).
When you restored, did you use the latest updater?
You may also want to try formatting the iPod through Windows. Connect it to the computer and when it appears in My Computer right click it and go to format. Does anything happen? Can you format the iPod through Windows?

After an iTunes update failed to install, iTunes won't open and I get the following two windows. Program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer, and iTunes not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (windows error 126) When I reinstall I get the same messages and ITunes won't open.
Click here and follow the instructions.

Ituneshelper was not installed correctly, please reinstall itunes Error 7
Have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and related programs (ad infinitum) per advice offered in this forum. So far a complete waste of time.
Running Windows 7, 64 bit, Home Premium. Have repaired windows installation as well, to no effect. Considering switching to Android phone since Apple obviously does not what PC users to using iPhones or iPods. Any ideas?
Honestly, I have been trying to overcome this setback for two weeks now and am getting discouraged.It's being unusually cryptic for an Error 7.
Usually if the .NET framework is up to snuff, an error 7 indicates trouble with the Apple Application Support installation. But in those cases, usually there's a preceding message about one of the Apple Application Support program files.
On rare occasions (had it happen to me once myself while installing and uninstalling stuff by way of troubleshooting experimentation), the 7 can indicate trouble with one of the other associated programs (like QuickTime, perhaps BonJour). So, perhaps the sensible way forward for us under the circumstances is a complete uninstall and reinstall of all iTunes and related componentry, as per:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
If you get any error messages with any of the uninstalls, deletions or reinstall, let us know what they say.
If, however, the process seems to go through swimmingly, does your iTunes start launching without the 7? -

i tried to update itunes and keep getting the above message. ive tried to uninstall everything itunes and reinstall several times and the same message pops up everytime. someone help!
Doublechecking. For the uninstall/reinstall, were you using the instructions from the following document?
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
If so, perhaps next check on your .NET framework as per the following document:
