How to remove or upgrade itunes on windows 7

I cannot download and install iTunes64 bit or 32 bit on Windows 7. I get a permissions problem.

I solved my problem by removing all Apple software from the PC and using Microsoft Fixit whenever the control panel uninstall didn't work, I also rebooted after each removal. Then I removed any folders named Apple.
The files removed were: iTunes, Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Software Uupdate, Bonjour and Quicktime. Next I installed iTunes and all is now fine.
Apple needs to improve their upgrade process for PCs.

  • Error upgrading iTunes for Windows 7, 64 bit

    I am receiving the following error and I'm not sure what to do next. If someone can offer a solution or tell me how to remove the upgrade and go back to my previous version, I'd appreciate it!!
    Error writing to file: c:\program files (x86)\itunes resources\pl.lproj\rentedmoviesplacard.nib\objects.xib. Veriufy that you have access to that directory.
    Thanks! Lezlie

    S'okay. Good to know about this now rather than later on down the track. I'll reply in two ways: first with some "big picture" advice about the disk damage, and then secondly with another technique for getting the iTunes install to go through (even though we can't get the disk damage fixed).
    I am very concerned now because CHKDSK found 13 file sectors unreadable but freezes before it gets them fixed. My computer is only about 2 months old! I'm not sure what to do now.
    (1) Okay, it's best to keep your data well backed up. I'd try another chkdsk every few days to check to see if the problem is evolving. If it looks like it's getting worse, send the PC in for warranty repair. Prior to doing that, be sure to deauthorise the PC for iTunes, because otherwise replacement of the hard drive may convince the PC it's a completely different one from the one you've got authorised, and you may end up with two different authorisations on the same PC.
    (2) In the meantime, let's have another go at getting your iTunes installed. The problem here is that your iTunes is getting stuck trying to delete the damaged file/folder and replace it with a new one. So we'll try convincing it that the existing damaged files/folders don't exist ... that way it will creat a new one from scratch.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    Open the C drive.
    Open the "Program files (x86)" folder.
    Open the "iTunes" folder.
    Open the "iTunes.Resources" folder.
    Open the "pl.lproj" folder.
    Rename the "rentedmoviesplacard.nib" folder "rentedmoviesplacard.nibOLD".
    Now try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    How to remove black "blocked plug-in" window that opens with iPhoto. It covers iPhoto and everything under it. I've right and left clicked the black window, restarting the computer, shutting down the computer, but the window always appears when I open iPhoto and it will not move or go away. It stays on my screen (covering my desktop icons) even after I quit iPhoto. How can I get it off my screen?

    Which version if iPhoto and MacOS X do you have?
    Do you have any iPhoto plug-ins  installed?
    Open the folder /Library/Application Support/iPhoto/Plugins/
    To navigate to that folder, open the folder "Library" directly on your Macintosh HD, then inside the Library folder go to Application Support, then iPhoto.  Is there anything installed?

    How to remove remainer of iTunes money?

    I dont believe you can get a return on the iTunes balance. Once you have submitted an amount to the store then it is there for good. Apple has outlined this in its iTunes Store terms and conditions: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/us/terms.html
    However, there may be some special circumstances, so if you feel you should get your money back then the best thing would be to contact Apple support directly.

  • How to delete duplicate songs itunes for windows?

    How to delete multple duplicates of songs on Itunes for windows?

    Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
    The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to. There are other ways to deal with deal links alone, but those won't preserve that information.

  • How can I get my iTunes from windows to mac

    I just bought this macbook pro, which I love, but I don't want my iphone to erase during sync, how do I get my Itunes Windows stuff onto my Itunes Mac??

    From your Old Computer... Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..
    An Added Bonus is that you will then have a Backup of iTunes...

  • How to install update for iTunes on windows vista

    I Just got an iPhone 5s and when I pulled my phone into my computer it's says I have to update my iTunes in order to get to my iphone through iTunes and the update comes up for iturns 12.0.1 but everytime its goes to update it says there was an error. Please help I don't want to have to delete iTunes and reinstall it because I'm afraid of losing all my content.

    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.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • I am unable to upgrade iTunes in Windows XP, please advise

    I attempt to upgrade ITunes on my PC and I never receive the exe file on my desktop I need to do the upgrade. Please advise.  Thanks.

    There is some anecdotal evidence that the scripts on the Apple site that are supposed to detect the version of Windows you are running may fail for some users - jumping straight to the "Thank you for downloading ..." page with the installer not having been downloaded.  As an alternative, you can go directly to the relevant downloads:
    iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (32-bit) - itunessetup.exe
    iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit) - itunes6464setup.exe
    There is an alternative downloader for 64-bit editions of Windows here:
    iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
    that seems to address the playback issues that some users have been reporting with the full 64-bit version (the alternative installer here is the same architecture as most previous "64-bit" versions of iTunes, i.e., a 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer).  The "for older video cards" reference does not seem to fully define the scope of systems for which this alternative works better.
    See turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for more details if you're still having problems with installation.

  • Upgrade iTunes for Windows

    I am trying to upgrade iTunes to (11.1?) on my Windows 7 PC. I'm thanked for  downloading but the .exe file is nowhere to be found. No installation  takes place and version 11.0 is still installed. Where do I go fro here?

    Check your browser for download prompts. It is possible security or ad-block settings are preventing the download. Try Apple Software Update from your start menu instead.
