HowTo: iTunes+Quicktime on Windows Vista x86

This was fun. Some of you may have noticed that the iTunes + Quicktime installer may not work on Windows Vista Beta 2 (x86). Well, there's an easy work around:
Install Quicktime 7 Standalone first, then install iTunes.
Problem solved -- iPod works.
'Nuff said.

You may need to register vbscript.dll as in the following article:

This problem seems to have cropped up quite often for vista users.

    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

  • Cant download itunes 10 using windows vista error installation of assembly policy 8.0 microsoft VC80.CRT

    cant download itunes 10 using windows vista erroe about installation of assembly

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)

    The article says that I should upgrade to the latest iTunes. I am on the latest iTunes version.
    If you could read just a tiny little bit further, under the "Additional Information" section immediately after that, it says:
    If you are still experiencing this issue when syncing, or have not installed Xcode 4 and get this alert:
    Follow the troubleshooting steps in Mac OS X v10.5, v10.6: Resetting the SyncServices folder.
    If the issue is still unresolved, follow steps in Sync Services: Advanced troubleshooting for contact and calendar syncing.
    Have you tried those measures?

  • I cannot install itunes on my windows vista

    I try to install itunes on my windows vista, it gives me a error

    "iTunesSetup.exe não é um aplicativo Win32 válido"
    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • CAN'T INSTALL ITUNES 9 ON WINDOWS VISTA 64-BIT OS

    Hey guys!
    I'm having a reaaaallly hard time installing iTunes on my Windows Vista 64-bit OS. Everytime I think it's about to finish installing, it shows me this message:
    What does it mean?? Can someone PLEASE help me, I haven't had music on my iPhone for 4 weeks now!

    Curses ... you did everything right by providing the screenshot, thanks. But we really need to see the error message number that shows up after the "HRESULT" bit for one of those, and it's deciding not show us that.
    Okay ... people who get these error messages for iTunes installs typically are also getting Windows updates failures too. So we'll try to work out what the iTunes/Updates issue is by checking your Update history.
    Go into your Windows Update and click "Update History". Have updates been failing for you recently? If so, doubleclick on each failure to bring up a small window showing some info about the failure.
    What error message codes are you getting for the Windows Updates failures? (For example, 0x8007000B, or something else?)

    I'm running iTunes on Windows 7 and never gotten that message.

  • Recently downloaded iTunes on my windows Vista PC and its incomplete.

    Recently downloaded iTunes on my windows Vista PC everything comes up on the screen except there is no Edit, View, Controls etc., no tabs for Music, Movies, TV Shows etc., no viewing for their sub-categories in the drop down, no three lights in the upper left corner and I cannot type in the search box.  What's missing or wrong with this download?  Really hard to make a purchase.

    Hi ...thanks for trying to help.
    When I plug my ipod in via USB it attempts to find and install the driver software.  It always fails and I get the message "Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device.  Windows found driver softtware for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it - Apple mobile device USB driver.  The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request"
