How can I remove Apple Software update from Programs in Control Panel. I grt a message that there is an error in Windows Installer Package?

I get this message: "A program required for this install to complete could not be run.
There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package". OS, Windows 7-64

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.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • I'm getting a message that there is an error in the installer file for the 30 day trial of Acrobat Pro - Can that be fixed?

    I just tried to download - 3 times - 2 from I.E. 11 and 1 from Chrome - all get the same result that there is an error in the installer file.
    I'm not seeing any way to contact Adobe directly, only forums and this one seems closest to what might be helpful.  Thanks for any advice you can provide.

    use a different (wired) internet connection and/or a download manager.  you can also try dl'g from prodsigntools.com
    to dl from prodesign.com, go here:  http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html
    if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com). 
    failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

  • HT1338 How can I start a software update from scratch?  error states that it was corrupted during transfer but when it starts over later, it still give the same error

    Software updates tells me it needs to download and install a new version of itunes.  When this notice first appeared the download started but stopped after about 34 MB and said the download was corrupted.  Later (after many restarts), the notice appears again but the download starts where it left off and immediately gives me the message that it is corrupted.  How do I force the download to start over from scratch?

    Check the version you're being offered, and go to Apple Support Downloads.
    Read the info on the update and decide if you actually need it. (if your OS version is 10.6.4 as shown in your info, I doubt that you will need it at all).
    The latest update I can find for iTunes is here; http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1426

  • How can i remove Apple TV ads from youtube? It's really annoying! I want my old apple TV youtube BACK!

    Can I return Apple TV beaucouse the reason i bought it was youtube without ads and now is not!

    I Too find this very annoying. why is it, that each new update tends to make things worse? Do they not to any end user testing?
    Besides the annoying ads (yeah I know wait for a few seconds, then skip it. But why should I have to?), they restructured the layout after you've watched a video. You used to see a list related videos. And, because it was in single column you could see more than the new graphics. Maybe I will get used to it?
    The most annoying new f'eature' is what happens when you press the Pause button. A large chunk graphic with 'Resume' on it overlaying the image. Well guess why I pause videos? It's either because I want to study the current frame, or as in the case just now, some text was scrolling by so fast I couldn't read it. So I press Pause and now most of the text is covered up!
    Really Apple?
    If there's a way of fixing this, it would be great.  in the meantime I guess I'd better turn off auto updates.
    in a previous post about my disappointment with the IOS8 udpdate I commenTed I should get me a Samsung tablet. Well i did. The new 8.4" model very nice.  Time to start shopping for an ATV replacement. Too bad, because of all the ones I've tried, I've always preferred the ATV.

  • How can I remove the background sound from the headphone jack for my MacBoo

    for my MacBook Air problem adding music intensifier (Panasonic ST-HT1000) to give it an unpleasant sound background that sounds like a whiz, it's not so loud, but it is an unpleasant .. after a short time can get used to, but the fizz does not pass, however, believe that it is a big problem.
    Further I notice that when MacBookAir disconnected from the charger, it remains quieter sound.
    At first thought that the headphone jack (3.5 mm Headphone:
    Connection: 1/8-Inch Jack) or wiere have problem, but tried 3 different cables, but that does change enything, the problem remains.
    When I added iPhonu3GS playing - the background sound were not, then everything is OK!

    There is no way to bring that up unless you have it typed in a document. You can use My Support Profile to find a list of serial numbers that have been purchased or registered with your Apple ID.

    How can i remove my credit card from my apple id

    Here's some more detail:
    You have to do this from ITunes on your computer.  You can't do it from itunes.com.
    First start ITunes.  On the left side of the screen, go to Store and then ITunes Store.  From the Quicklinks on the right side of the screen, go to Account.  After you sign in, you will see your account and payment information.  Click on Edit next to Payment Type.  Click None, next to Visa MasterCard Amex Discover.  It will then remove your credit card from your ITunes Account.

  • Can i remove any software updates..?!

    Is there any differences between phone language while installing software updates.
    With your Nokia 303, no.
    Moron wrote:
    Is the language affect on software update quality, like english is best or any other languages?
    Not applicable as per answer above. Everything depends on your Nokia Product Code.
    Moron wrote:
    Is there any languages will be removed after updates?
    If that happens, something more severe is wrong right now, like a Nokia Product Code mismatch of the hardware/software. That is unnormal, therefore, loosing languages is not normal either. Just check the 7-letter code of the label of your phone, whether it matches the one displayed in the Nokia Software Recovery Tool. If they match, you are not going to loose languages.

    You should ask in that thread which matches your target firmware version and model number. Then, somebody with your phone can answer that question directly:
    A) 14.87 …
    B) 14.76 …

    You should make a backup with the PC Suite, the Nokia Suite and via the Menu » Settings » Sync and Backup » Create Backup (microSD required). Then, you can choose which backup worked best.

  • HT3702 how can i remove the authorization hold from my card...

    how can i remove the authorization hold from my card

    You can try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store
    How much was the amount ? A 'normal' holding charge is a small amount (e.g. equivalent to about $1), and usually happens after you add or change credit card details on your account. Here in the UK it can take a few working days for it to disappear (so a weekend can extend the elapsed time).
    Edit : I don't know what a non-liability certificate is and/or whether Apple can do one.
