Cannot install iTunes on windows 7 64bit

Okay, I like so many cannot install iTunes on Windows 7 64bit.
Now Orginally I got a message saying something to the effect of:
There was a problem with the install you do not have permission for something...
Through some investigating my iTunes was being installed and removing all my permissions to view and/or modify files within that folder. Even if I was logged in as admin and installed as admin all the permissions would simply block me out.
This kind of had a familar feeling as in the last few versions of iTunes I had to run as admin just to open it (this is really annoying by the way)
So I searched the net and many people were saying to uninstall everything "Apple" and try again. So I did that. Now I have this new message:
there is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
And again I scoured the internet for a way to fix this. I apparently am supposed to goto Control Pannel/Programs and Features and select Apple Software Update and select repair. The problem is that no longer exists in my programs list since I removed it in the earlier step. iTunes still refuses to install spitting out the same error forever. I tried the Microsoft "fix it" tool which is supposed to remove the Apple Software Update incomplete uninstall (which is apparently the whole problem) but it doesn't show up in the list for "fixing".
I am at a loss. Why doesn't Apple fix this. I cannot update my iPhone to the latest software in fear I may need to restore it. With no iTunes that is impossible. I cannot change any of my music or do anything until this is resolved. If/when iPhone 5 comes out I cannot get it either unless this issue is taken care of somhow.
I searched for an installer for just the Apple Software Update program But it seems to not exist as a standalone thing (it would be useful if it were though). If it were perhaps I could install it again and then successfully remove/repair it and iTunes might install finally.
Now I have had previous versions of iTunes working perfectly fine. I do not recall which version I was using before I tried to update and fell into this abyss however.

Yes b noir. I've tried running just "iTunes64.msi" from the command-line and while it didn't produce the same error "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vender." it produced a different error in bold-type "iTunes Installer Completed" then "The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured...Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified...Please run the installer again, or click Finish to exit". However, I discovered a wealth of options from the Windows Installer to try after typing "iTunes64.msi passive"...So I'll experiment some more when I have time.
P.S. I'm becoming more convinced that Apple is putting new software out there to get it debugged which was a trick that MicroSoft always seemed to do:-)

HT1926 cant install itunes on windows 7 64bit . cant run a required dll

i cant install itunes on windows 7 64bit . when i run the setup and reach the status : "performing installation checks" , it said "there is a problem with this Windows Installer Package . A Dll required for this install to complete could not be run.v..v" what should i do now ?

That's a bit rarer. It's a 1723 error message. (1721 and 1722 are more common.)
Even though the following user tip is about slightly different errors (the 1721 and 1722), perhaps try it with your one too:

Problem installing itunes on windows 8 64bit. Installation gets stuck on Status: (blank) literally blank

Problem installing itunes on windows 8 64bit. Installation gets stuck on Status: (blank) literally blank. I really need to install this since I have only 1 PC and i just bought the new iPhone 6.

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.

Can't install itunes on windows 7 64bit

I tried to reinstall itunes on windows 7 64bit but this error keeps coming out and have no idea what to do.
anyone got any solutions?

Let's try the following user tip with that one:
"There is a problem with this Windows Installer package ..." error messages when installing iTunes for Windows

Unable to install itunes on windows 7 64bit pc

The first error message I get reads:
An error occurred during the installation of assembly policy. 8.0.Microsoft.VC80.CRT. type="win32-policy".version="8.0.50727.6195".public KeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b" .processorArchitecture="x86'''. Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: Ox80070299
It will continue after I hit OK but then it rolls back the action and continues.
Then I get another message that: 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
I chose ignore since retry gets me the same message and I guess that "abort" will just stop the whole process.
The install continues and then Congratulations Itunes has successfully installed on your computer. I hit finish to start and then two error messages saying that Apple Application Support was not found and to reinstall itunes.
HELP!!!

It is an ongoing issue with installing iTunes 7 on Windows.
What often solve the problem is running installer as Administrator
and the opening iTunes as Administrator
Right click on the installer and "Run As Administrator"
Also as b noir mentioned - can you post the error message?
This would help.

The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if AAS won't install normally.

Cannot open key error while installing itunes on windows vista 64bit

I have downloaded iTunes to my desktop, disconnected from net, disabled firewall, and ran as administrator. Now I get an error saying: Could not open Key: UNKNOWN\Components\DA42BC89BF25F5BDOAF18C3B9B1AEE8\FD563AF386D2DE54F8388C8A8336 E1534 verify that you have sufficient access to that key or contact you support personnel. Any suggestions??? Have tried for several weeks, to get iTunes 9.0 to install & run, am very frustrated, please help!!!

This is caused by a permissions issue with some of the apple registry keys. You need to uninstall every apple application and fix the registry permissions. I have written up the details of this below which I am sending to Apple support:
Issues with Iphone Sync on Windows 7 64x after migration
1) Uninstall all Apple Software components in the order recommended
a. Itunes
b. Quicktime
c. Apple Software update
d. Apple mobile device Support (Note: If this does not uninstall – It could be related to Registry permissions. Make sure to do Step 4)
e. BonJour
f. Apple Application Support
2) Verify all Itunes Related components are completely uninstalled (Refer to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923)
3) Try to Reinstall Itunes
4) If you receive Error during install : Cannot Open Key: UNKNOWN Components/
a. Get into the registry Start >> Search Programs and Files >> Regedit
b. Access the following Location: HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Co mponents
c. Perform the following actions
i. Right Click on Components Folder
ii. Select Permissions
iii. Select Full Control and Read Permissions options
iv. Select Advanced Button
v. Select Owner Tab
vi. Select to Change Owner to the Administrators
vii. Check the option “Replace owner on subcontainers and objects”
viii. Select OK when prompted that it may not change all.
ix. Select Apply
x. Select Apply again
xi. Exit the Registry Editor
5) Reinstall Itunes
Good Luck

Issues after installing itunes to windows 7 64bit

This is the error I get when I plug in my phone. I have uninstalled and reinstalled three times and still get it. I installed the correct version. Please help. Its beyond fristrating.

Hey kankawaii,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It might be best to completely remove iTunes and related components, then install to 64-bit version from the direct download link below.
To remove iTunes completely (along with related components):
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
To download the 64-bit version of iTunes for Windows:
iTunes 11.0.4 for Windows 64

Thanks,

Cant install itunes on windows 7 64bit

Title says it all really, after I download the file I double click to open and nothing happens at all, no box asking me to give access just nothing. If I download 32bit this works but when I opened it it told me to install 64bit instead, so I just cancelled that install.
Any ideas???

ok so I just changed compatability to windows vista and it opened and installed so I think its cool now

Trying to install iTunes on Windows 8.1. Apple Application Support was not found. Error 2. Uniinstall iTunes and try again, does not work. Is there a fix?

Trying to install iTunes on Windows 8.1. Apple Application Support was not found. Error 2. Uniinstall iTunes and try again, does not work. Is there a fix?

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.)

Cannot install xmlp plugin for word 2007 on Windows 7 64bit

I cannot install xmlp plugin for word 2007 on Windows 7 64bit. I keep getting a "java runtime not installed" error. I have applied the latest updates to word. Is there a fix to this?

Hi,
Even if you use a 64bit OS, the office version could be either 32bit or 64bit. Which one do you use? If already installed a 64bit version Office, try to switch to a 32bit one, because it will work fine and might solve your problem too.

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.
