Having a problem installing Quicktime/itunes software can't control where it's going to download

so i'm trying to load quicktime/itunes software on my Win7 laptop. had it on the same laptop but with vista. i can not control where the software is being downloaded too. Trying to send to my external drive labeled originally F: somehow it got changed to I:. The package doesn't recognize the label F: and says there's not enough space. I have 410gbs free! The package doesn't give me the option to change where i want to send it. Can't DL bonjour for the same reason. Safari 5 wasn't a problem. So what's the verdict, y'all? I can't update my itouch, which i'm sure sorely needs it.
Thanks in advance
Nagoosh

ok so after days of trying I finally got it to work...
here's what I did.
1. Uninstall old versions of iTunes. Reboot.
2. Uninstall old versions of Quicktime. Reboot.
3. go in and remove any left over traces of QT or iTunes from hard drive
4. Remove temp files related to itunes or quicktime. Reboot.
5. Uninstall audio driver for audigy 2 (WDM)
6. Install new version of iTunes
7. reinstall drivers for audio
8. reboot
9. check audio drivers (for some reasons even though I reinstalled it didn't come back as the right one after the restart and was listed as disabled) update the driver.
10. Reboot again
11. now things should work again.
2 quick notes... Make sure to save a backup copy of your itunes library.itl and your itunes music library.xml so you can system restore back and have the old version work, just in case.
now I Can't be sure... but I assume something like step 9 was happening and not showing up that way in my drivers... although that doesn't explain why uninstalling and fresh installing after installation didn't fix it earlier. but it works now and I'm thrilled.

  • I am having a problem installing the JDK Software. Please Help

    Please help I am Having trouble installing my JDK software. I tried to make a simple program saying Hello World and the program fails to work because it can not find my class.

    Is their any other problem like a conflict of some sort that could be causing this problem?
    Could the problem be anything besides the ClassPath and Path Settings?

    Hi all,
    Sylonious, did you manage to sort this problem out? I have been experiencing similar problems. I think my problem was because I had many different versions of JDKs. I have done a complete re-install. I would be really grateful to you (and anyone else) for help with this problem.
    I have re-installed JSDK1.4.2_03, set the "path" variable to "C:\JSDK1.4.2_03".
    When I compile using "javac" I get an error saying "javac" is not recognised.
    When I compile using "C:\j2sdk1.4.2_03\bin\javac Freq.java" no error is thrown.
    Every time I try to run a java file, I always get the NoClassDefFound error. When run with the -verbose option, files are loaded from C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_03\bin - is this correct?
    I have removed all previous references to java in the registry editor.
    Please help !

  • Many problems installing Quicktime+iTunes

    (Keep in mind I have windows 7 64 bit)
    I need the firmware update for my iPhone 3g, which normally I avoid because I always seem to have a problem with quicktime installing properly. But since a couple up my apps needed to work, I gave in.
    When I tried to run the update through iTunes, it installs everything correctly. When I went back into iTunes, I got an error saying iTunes needs Quicktime to run properly. So I uninstalled both iTunes and Quicktime. I ran the Apple Update utility and it did the same thing. So I went to the web site and installed them separately. Again, iTunes 1, Quicktime 0. Now I get an error that I don't have the right file path for the .msi file.
    I looked on the forum for this solution and found that I needed the Windows Installer Utility (to remove installer files that failed?) Removed Quicktime.
    Attempted to reinstall again, since I can't get in iTunes, which I really need.
    Now, a different set of problems occur. Now all of my icons that are shortcuts are Quicktime icons, and I cannot get into them without finding the original file in my directory. At this point Quicktime is not even on my computer any longer. When I try to install it, I get an error saying "Could not open key Unknown\components\(A bunch of numbers) Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel." I am on the only account on this PC, but to be fair, I did right click the install file and choose "run as administrator."
    Please help!!

    It's unlikely taking permissions of the registry key will solve install problems for QT when the initial post referred to a msi file.
    This is a rare(ish) variation on a problem involving error messages mentioning missing .msi files that mostly affects 64-bit systems. Although the initial symptom for most people is the missing .msi message, if they use CleanUp, the underlying problem with the registry keys relating to the the Side-by-Side configuration of installed componentry for QuickTime (or Apple Application Support) will come to light.
    That's what happened to poor Felix here. (Note in his first post that he's said he's already tried using CleanUp to address the .msi message ... so now the registry key issue has come to light.)
    If permissions are just not set properly for the keys, regedit can get us through. But if there's underlying trouble with the ACLs (for example, some people get blank permissions on keys, which are impossible to manipulate via regedit) or other exotica going on, things get messy.

  • I'm having a problem updating the iTunes software. Receiving "invalid signature". Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hi Everyone,
    I have been trying to update iTunes, Safari, and Quicktime. Keep receiving "invalid signature" and then it removes the attempted download. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I have had this happen as well. What I had to do was sync the iPod to remove the album and the resync the album back to the Classic. I've had this happen with my iPhones as well. Must be a bug in either the current OS or iTunes versions.

    Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
    Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
    If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?

  • I cannot install the latest version of iTunes on laptop (windows xp). I receive a windows installer error message. Not having any issues installing any other software.  Was having no issue syncing w iPhone. Made the mistake of uninstalling prior version.

    I cannot install the latest version of iTunes on my laptop (windows xp). I receive a windows installer error. Am not having any problem installing other software or syncing w iPhone.  Made the mistake today of uninstalling my older version and not cannot install new.  Need new version in order to sync w new iPad.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Apparently, security programs like Macafee and Norton view Itunes updates as new programs and block then from access. If you add Itunes to the list of exemptions, it solves the problem.

  • I am having a problem installing the updated version 10.3.1.55 on my laptop.

    I am having a problem installing the updated version of Itunes 10.3.1.55 on my laptop which uses Windows XP operating system. I have download the software from Apple's website and have successfully installed it. However, when I launch Itunes I get an error message "Itunes was not installed correctly" "error 7 (windows error 999)". I have uninstalled the software, deleted all associated files, and reinstalled the software, but I am still having the same problem. I did not have any issues with the older version of Itunes. Does any one have a work around for this problem, or how can I download the old version I was using?

  • I am having a problem w/ my itunes working correctly due to accidentally running Itunes through my troubleshooting, running programs made for previous versions of windows!! How do I turn it off?!??

    I am having a problem w/ my Itunes working correctly, after accidentally running Itunes through my  troubleshooter  to, Run Programs Made For PreviousVersions of Windows. It keeps popping up that the Compatibility  Version is on, to make sure it's off before opening my Itunes Account. I've looked everywhere, Please, Please, How Do I Make This Right??!??

    It sounds like either your hard drive or the SATA cable that connects it to the motherboard are failing. This could be heat related in your case, which is why you see it after it runs awhile. You can take it to the Genius Bar for a free evaluation. If you decide to test it yourself, I usually suggest moving the hard drive to an external enclosure. If it works there for awhile, the cable is probably the issue.

    I don't know what to tell you. I get the same crap. I have been into computers for about 25 years now and it really ticks me off that after all these years these companys can not put out something that works. It seems like they put it out then expect the buyer to fix there screw ups. Why should we have to do there jobs and have to pay for it too?
