How do i get itunes back on my computer?

So, i got a new iPhone 4 as a hand me down, and it required me to update iTunes, when i tried, it said "There is a problem with this windows installer package, a program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your personnel package vendor. ” And somewhere on the apple forums it told me to delete everything iTunes related and then re- download itunes, so i did , and i got the same message, and now i dont even have itunes on my computer at all.

Just in case, let's try a standalone AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi install.
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, and select "Extract to iTunesSetup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup".
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi to do a standalone ASU install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If not, what error message do you get? (Precise text, please.)

How do I get itune back on my computer

I recently had computer problems, and during the process I lost itunes. How do I download it onto my computer without having to pay for it all over again? Can I get apple to send me the file in an email? Or do I just have to pay for it all over again?
Thanks.

Have you failed to back up your music?
Itunes is a free program. You can download it for free.
The music is not free and is your responsibility to keep up with.

I have been using itunes all day and then it wanted me to install a newer version. When I did it said I can't because it's missing mdsvr80 or something so i downloaded that now it has another error. How do I get itunes back the way it was or to work?

I already tried reloading ITunes and it still doesn't startup.

You didn't mention but are you still running a version of iPhoto older than iPhoto 11?
If yes, then go to the App Store and purchase the iP 11 app and install it. Back up your photo library first.
Once iP 11 is installed and has imported all your photos do a restart of the Mac.
This should resolve most issues with iTunes 10.6 and you should be able to run iTunes and sync up your iOS devices.

this is what has come up:
"DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES" = "/Users/Shared/.USBSafelyRemove.so";
Sigh You are infected with one of the strains of the Flasback trojan. You are not the first, and unfortunately not going to be the last. So I don't have to retype all the instructions, here's some from MadMacs0 for another user where I've modified it for your case:
Select "Go to Folder" from the "Go" menu of the Finder (or type Command-Shift-G).
In the window copy and paste the following:
     ~/.MacOSX/ and hit return.
Make note of the date the file "environment.plist" was created / modified then drag it to the trash.
Open the Terminal app (found in /Applications/Utilities/)
Copy and paste the following commands into a Terminal window after the "$ " prompt, followed by the return key:
     rm -rf "~/Library/Application Support/.USBSafelyRemove.so"
     rm -rf ~/Library/Logs/vmlog
     rm -rf /Users/Shared/.USBSafelyRemove.so
     rm -rf /Users/Shared/.svcdmp
You will not receive confirmation of deletion, but you may be told that some of the files do not exist as not all have been found by all users.
Holding down the option key, select "Empty Trash" from the Finder menu, then restart your computer. All the visible signs of the Trojan should be gone at this point.
Again I want to emphasize that we do not know enough about this Trojan to be confident all the damage has been repaired. You are still advised to make certain you have a solid backup of your data and using the original installation disks, install and upate OS X and all your applications from a trusted source. Then restore your data files from backup. Or use TimeMachine to take you back to the date you were infected.
And lastly, Intego has discovered that the Trojan attempts to sniff out usernames and passwords that you enter into many popular sites (like banking sites, Google, PayPal, and others), presumably so that the malfeasants behind the software can exploit that information in other nefarious ways, and sends them back via Twitter. You should assume that happened and change the passwords for all such accounts that you have visited since being infected along with any other accounts that use the same password.

I've lost my iTunes library -not the music, just the stars,etc., But that is still on my iPod. How do I get it back into my computer??

I've lost my favorites info, stars, etc. from iTunes. The music is ok, just not the personal info. All that IS on my iPod. How do I sync it back into my computer without loosing from the iPod, too?

See Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash.
If there is no hope of recovering the old library then you can use my scripts ImportDevice Playlists and SyncStats to recover ratings, play/skip counts/dates, and playlists.

How do i get itunes to scan my computer for mp3 files

Hello,
I just got a new computer and I have all my old mp3 files on my disc. How do I get itunes to scan my drive and import all my 10,000 songs at one time?

When you first install iTunes, it offers to do a one-time scan of your hard drive.
If you miss that opportunity, you can add music at any time using the command File > Add Folder to Library. That command brings up a dialog where you can navigate to the folder you want to add, e.g. My Music.

How Do I Get iTunes Back On My Macbook?

I was downloading something from Acquisition this morning and my iTunes went haywire. Next thing I know my entire iTunes library was damaged and iTunes would not respond. After a number of tries, I dragged iTunes into the trash and figured I'd download a new one.
However, when I downloaded it from Apple I got a message that verification failed and then when I double-clicked the iTunes 6.0.5.dmg on my desktop I got the following message -- "the following disk images failed to mount (reason codec overrun)".
Help...Any ideas what happened and any idea how I can get back to normal?

Okay... but then there's nothing there? It just says "There are no purchased movies to be downloaded" (roughly translated from Danish)...
