How do I install  iTunes+QuickTime on Vista

When I try to install the latest version of iTunes+Quicktime, everything works until the very end when QuickTime is installing, the I get an error box saying "This Installer Cannot Upgrade QuickTime 7 For Windows Public Preview, Please Uninstall First". I uninstalled existing QuickTime, but the dialog box pops up every time. I don't see any references to QuickTime in Program Files or Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel. I assume there is a reference somewhere in the Registry.
Any ideas?

  • Fix for VBScript Error When Installing iTunes/Quicktime on Vista

    With GREAT THANKS to http://www.keathmilligan.net. I was able to fix this problem by performing the following steps:
    The iTunes/QuickTime installer will fail with a "VBScript not installed" error on some installations of Vista. I'm not sure exactly what leads to this situation as it does not seem to affect all Vista users, but there is a relatively simple fix:
    Click Start, All Programs, Accessories then RIGHT click on Command Prompt and select "Run as Administrator"
    change directory to your windows\system32 directory
    enter the following command:
    regsvr32 vbscript.dll
    This will re-register VBScript and allow the iTunes installer to run.
    After almost pulling my hair out for a month, this worked like a charm and I was able to install iTunes/quicktime with the latest version and get to hear my music again after a month of trying everything. THANKS KEATH

  • Trying to install itunes on windows vista and get the following error message:

    Trying to install itunes on windows vista and get the following error message: An error occurred during the installation of assembly "Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.50727.4053",type="win32",publicKey Token="1fc8b3b9a1e3b",process orArchitecture="x86"". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x80070424.

    A broken Windows Modules Installer then. It's a bit of an involved fix getting past it, but we've had success here with it in the past.
    First, I'd strongly suggest setting up a system restore point.
    Now try the Scenario III treatment from the following document:
    Windows Update Error 80070424 in Vista
    Head back into Windows Update and attempt to get updates again. If they still fail, this time with an 8000FFFF error code, try the following Microsoft document:
    Windows Update error 8000FFFF
    If you get Windows Updates flowing again, stock up on any you're behind on (restarting the PC when requested to do so). This may take some time and may have to be done in several batches, depending on how far you've fallen behind. Basically, keep going back to Windows Update until it stops offering you new updates.
    After the updates have been installed, restart the PC one more time (in order to ensure that any pending installs requiring a restart have been resolved).
    Now try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the 0x80070424 this time?

  • Cabinet file error while trying to instal itunes 9 on vista

    So I have been trying multiple times and doing a variety of things to try and install itunes 9 on vista. While it is copying new files I always get the same error at the same place. The error reads, "The cabinet file 'AppleMobileDeviceSupport.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-Rom, or problem with this package." I tried downloading the installer from firefox, IE, and Google chrome all with no avail. I also removed every Apple related product from my computer in hopes of a clean install. If there are any tips on what to do, it would be greatly appreciated. I also get the same errors when I try to install Quicktime except it has a different cabinet file that doesn't work. It's really aggravating.
    Thanks

    Yea, I'm Having the same problem on my Windos 7 OS. Any answers to this problem?

  • Error 0x800736FD when installing iTunes + QuickTime

    Well, I finally caved. I bought my first digital portable media player. The people on the street were throwing things at me, and my doctor said he might have to operate my shoulder. The boombox had to go!
    So, I'm trying to install iTunes. My Dell machine came with an "Apple Software Update" program installed. It's been bugging me to install iTunes since I got it, so this time I clicked OK and let do its thing.
    The automatic updater "Apple Software Update" is trying to install "iTunes + QuickTime" version 7.4.3. It goes through the download phase OK, then starts the installation. After about 10 minutes (wherein the installation has not progressed in the last 9 minutes), an error message appears in a separate window:
    iTunes + QuickTime
    (X) An error has occured during the installation of Microsoft.VC80.CRT,publicKeyToken="1fc...",type="win32",version="8.0.50727.762" ,processorArchitecture="x86". Refer to Help for more information. HRESULT: 0x800736FD.
    Has anyone seen this before or know how I can get around it? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Have you tried downloading iTunes yourself and installing it manually?
    You can download the iTunes installer from here:

  • Why can't I install Itunes on windows vista 64 bit?

    Why can't I install Itunes on windows vista 64 bit? I have removed all apple software and repeated the reinstall many times but it fails.  I get this complicated error mesage and then the installer rolls back and fails.

    I get this complicated error mesage and then the installer rolls back and fails.
    I'd like to have a closer look at that error message please.
    Generate the error message again. While the error message box is open, hold down the Alt key and hit the PrtSc key. Paste the screenshot into an image file (using a program like Paint), and save the file.
    Start a reply here and click the wee camera icon at the top of the reply window. Click "Choose file", browse to the image file, select the file and click "Open". Now click "Insert file" to insert the screenshot into the reply.

  • How do I install iTunes on my iPod?

    I just bought a new 5th Gen iPod (80 gig, Black model). It doesn't come with an install cd. I hook it up to an iMac at school that already has itunes installed. The iPod appears on the desk top, but not in iTunes, and I get a dialog box that says the iPod "iPod" can not be used because it requires iTunes 7.0 or later .
    When going through the iTunes install the select destination dialog box, if I select the iPod it says that I can't install iTunes on this volume. This software may only be installed onto the start up volume. I can't install it on the computer because of it needs an administrator's name and password but I can't get it since this is a university.
    I've reset the iPod, and set itto disk mode. So how do I install iTunes on my iPod?

    Jeff, he was refering to the school computer, in which he does not had admin rights. Then he said his OWN computer.
    If you were able to install itunes, I don't understand how or why you can't get the correct itunes version. If you said you went to the apple website and downloaded it, it should be the current version, here it is again anyway:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    once installed, you can plug in the iPod and it should work now.

  • How do I install iTunes version 10.0?

    I don't like the latest version of iTunes.  How do I install iTunes version 10.0?

    The main differences between iTunes 11 and earlier versions are the loss of coverflow and ability to have multiple windows open.
    In Windows, you can restore much of the look & feel of iTunes 10.7 with these shortcuts:
    ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
    CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
    CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
    CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
    If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album (Grid) view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
    With iTunes 11.0.3 and later you can enable artwork in the Songs view from View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) making it more like the old Album List view
    View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) also contains options to change the sorting of grid based views
    N.b. iOS 7 requires iTunes 11.1 or later. Do not downgrade iTunes if you have already upgraded your iOS devices...
    If you feel the need to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

  • How do I install itunes with Windows 7?

    how do I install itunes with Windows 7?  I always get a Windows Installer error or administrator error __

    Have tried: download but do not install iTunes, then turn off virus protection and firewall, restart computer, login as admin, then run the iTunes insallation.  After it installs, restart virus protection and firewall and logout and back in as standard user.
    Windows leaves installers running or still resident which conflict with the iTunes installer.

  • How do i install itunes on an external drive

    How can i install iTunes on an external hard drive?

    Thanks, but I'm not referring to the music library, I'm referring to the actual iTunes application.  I've read other threads saying that it can only be installed on the C: drive, so guess i'm out of luck.
    Thanks anyway!

  • Problem installing iTunes + QuickTime

    So, I uninstalled QuickTime (last week) and then installed QuickTime Alternative, because it's smaller in size and I don't use QuickTime at all. That's probably what's caused my problem, and here it is.
    So today I double clicked on the iTunes shortcut and I got a pop-up saying 'iTunes needs QuickTime in order to run. Please uninstall & install iTunes + QuickTime'-or something like that. So I uninstalled iTunes but now I can't install it. It freezes during the installation at 'Copying New Files'. What do I do?

    hi RockDad!
    let's try enlisting some additional technical help with this one.
    let's try getting a installer log to someone who can interpret installer logs.
    Start menu -> Run... In the text field of the dialog that comes up, type in "cmd" and hit return.
    In the command prompt dialog that comes up, find the iTunes installer on your desktop and drag it to this window. Then on the same line type in a space and then the following:
    /Verbose"c:\log.txt" /V"ENABLE_QTLOGGING=TRUE"
    There is no space between the e in Verbose and the double quote ("). There is no space between the V"Enable...
    Hit return.
    The installer will create two log files:
    C:\log.txt and C:\qt.log
    Find those files and send them to this email address Put the URL to this discussion thread into the email, so that the person who gets it has some context. Let them know the version of itunes you’re trying to install, too … in general, give as much info as you can.
    love, b
