Finding an alternate path
I keep getting this error when trying to download iTunes 10.7. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that's unavailable.
Then it tells me to find a path that is available.

My itunes wont update it says i need to find a alternate path to install package but the package is not there
Which particular .msi file does the message say cannot be found? (Several different .msi files might be mentioned in this context: itunes.msi, bonjour.msi, AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi, etc.)

when I try to upload the latest version of iTunes, it tells me to enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package iTunes.msi. What does this mean as I can't seem to find any such folder and now I cannot uninstall Itunes either
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 page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Never had issues with itunes. However, currently unable to up-date to 10.4 version. It tells me to enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'tunes.msi' in the box below. Can't find this. Should I remove itunes and re-install all together? thanks
I have already had to remove Bonjour with the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility due to another common error when running the install
You're already well on track, then. Launch CleanUp again and remove any iTunes entries this time. Quit CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. -

I try to point iTunes to the .msi file on my c drive but then it gives me a message says "the file location is not a valid installation packaage for the product iTuness. Try to find the installation package 'itunes.msi' in a folder from which you can install iTunes". Any help, insight, guidance would be greatly appreciated!!
"The feature you are trying to use in on a network resource that is unavailable. Enter alternate path to a folder containing the installation package itunes64.msi".
Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time? -

That doesn't work either. What to do?

How can i remove iTunes 10.1.0.54 saying the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource...enter an alternate path to a folder contaning the installation package 'iTunes.msi'?
< Edited by Host >Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.

hi guys i got problem apple software Update
i got masage
.The feature you trying use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
Click OK to try again,or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package i Tunes.msi' in the box below
and i cant find anything please helpThis forum is for questions about Apple Remote Desktop, Apple's software for managing networked Mac systems, and hence not the best place for your question. I'd suggest asking in the iTunes for Windows forum. You'll need to include more details, including the version of Windows you have, before anyone can do more than guess as to the problem.

Attempting to update from 10.1 to 10.4 I get this msg:
"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package “iTunes.msi”. ?
I locate the file in "Program Files\iTunes" and change the path. I then get this:
"The file ’C:\Program Files\iTunes is not a valid installation package for the product iTunes. Try to find the installation package ‘ iTunes.msi ’ in a folder from which you can install iTunes."

Problem with Java keystore and certificates (unable to find valid cert path
Our program is made so that when a certificate is not signed by a trusted Certification Authority, it will ask the user if he/her wishes to trust the certificate or not. If they decide to trust the certificate, it will accept the self signed certificate and import it into the keystore and then use that certificate to log the user in. This works fine. It will import the certificate into the keystore and use the specified ip address to establish a connection with the LDAP server (Active Directory in our case) and authenticate properly. However, the problem arises when we then try and connect to a different ip address (without restarting tomcat, if we restart tomcat, it works fine...). It imports the certificate into the keystore fine, but always gives the exception
"Root exception is javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target"
and does not authenticate with our LDAP server (which is Active Directory). The problem seems to be that it is no longer looking at the System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", myTrustStore);
I have tried multiple times to just reset this property and try and "force" it to read from my specified trust file when this error happens. I have also imported the certificates directly into the <java_home>/jre/lib/security/cacerts and <java_home>/jre/lib/security/jssecacerts directories as the java documentation says that it will look at those directories first to see if it can find a trusted certificate. However, this does not work either. The only way that I can get this to work is by restarting tomcat all together.
If both of the certificates are already in the keystore before tomcat is started up, everything will work perfect. Again, the only problem is after first connecting to an IP address using TLS and importing the certificate, and then trying to connect to another IP address with a different certificate and import it into the keystore.
One of the interesting features of this is that after the second IP address has failed, I can change the IP address back to the first one that authenticated successfully and authenticate successfully again (ie
I use ip 1.1.1.1, import self signed certificate, authenticates successfully
login with ip 2.2.2.2 import self signed certificate, FAILS
login again with 1.1.1.1 (doesn't import certificate because it is already in keystore) successfully authenticates
Also, I am using java 1.5.0_03.
Any help is greatly appreciated as I've been trying to figure this out for over a week now.

After trying to run the iTunes automatic update, I got this box on my pc "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes.msi" in the box below.. I ran a search for the file, and entered that into the box, to no avail. Then I launched iTunes and clicked on 'check for updates', and was told I had the latest version 11.0.1 I think it is.

my itunes won't work so i tried reinstalling and when it starts an error pops up that says:
"the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. click ok to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'Itunes.msi' in the box below
please help, its frustratingfirst, 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 revo uninstaller http://http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html. use it to clear any existing itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information from the PC.
next download itunes. it worked for me hope this is helpful!!
oonce you get into the revo uninstallergo thru to delete itunes hit uninstall on the itunes icon then you will go thru to it will tell u the same nmessage about the feature and network hit cancell then go thru and hit scan (make sure bthe advance scan button is pushed) this will take awhile but go thru the list and hit everything associated with itunes. hit delete then install itunes again. it worked for me hope it works for you!
