When installing apple mobile device support it says verify you have sufficient privileges?
Trying to install this program without iTunes. And it gives me this over and over.
Me too. And if someone comes back on here with the same solution of "uninstall and re-install", please provide further advice after you have done that 3 times and the program still has the same problem in addition to the "failure to load the C runtime library" R6034 issue. I have removed itunes 3 times however I do not have permission to remove the program files/apple file and the uninstall doesn't remove it.
You're not alone buddy.
Frustrated. -

My computer comes up with Service Apple Mobile Device failed to start verify you have sufficient access privileges dont know to resolve it
These are the instructions I posted to another topic with this same issue.
I had this same thing happen on 2 different laptops. I finally called Apple support and they walked me through the repair. Apparently there are compatability issues with Apple software update and Internet Explorer, so if that is your default browser, you will want to download Google Chrome, Firefox or some other web browser and set it as your default. You will still be able to use IE, if you don't uninstall it, but links from e-mail will open in your new default browser, unless you copy and paste the URL into the web address line.
These are the step-by-step instructions that the tech support person walked me through. She said that it is important that you do these steps in this order.
1. Go to your Control Panel and open Programs and Features.
2. Find and uninstall iTunes from the list.
3. Find and uninstall Apple Software Update.
4. Find Apple Mobile Device Support and REPAIR this file. This is the problem child, so you must repair it first.
5. After you have repaired it, uninstall it.
6. If Apple Mobile Device Support is not removed from your program list, restart your computer and go back into the Control Panel and Programs an Features. If the file is still there, repeat Repair and then uninstall. It should now be removed from the list.
7. Restart your computer.
8. Go back into your Control Panel and Programs and Features and then find BONJOUR. Uninstall Bonjour.
9. Find Apple Application Support and uninstall it.
10. Restart your computer.
11. Upon restart, you may receive an "AppleSyncNotifier.exe - System Error" if you have iCloud attached to your account. This is normal and will be fixed when you reinstall iTunes.
12. Using Google Chrome (or Firefox or Safari) go to www.apple.com and click on iTunes and then find the button to download iTunes. It will now install properly and be usable.
13. If for some reason you are not able/allowed to change your default browser to something other than IE, then you should uncheck the box to automatically update iTunes during the install process or you may end up having to redo this fix.
Hope this helps everyone with this problem. I have now gone through this process with two of my laptops, both of them with successful results. If this does not work, I strongly urge you to contact Apple for additional assistance. -

I am unable to instal itunes (greater than version 7) as it gives me the error,"Bonjour service failed to start, verify you have sufficient privileges" , i have checked on apple support and the only help for this error says that mcafee antivirus is blocking the services however i have never had mcafee installed on my pc. Anyone any other ideas as to what could be wrong?
Hi doywks,
The Apple Mobile Device is a component of iTunes that communicates between your computer and your iPhone or iOS device. The error message you are seeing "verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services" has to do with the Windows operating system. It's possible that you are not logged in as the administrator for your Windows PC. Or, you may have antivirus software stopping the Apple Mobile Device from running.
If you are having issues updating iTunes on your PC, follow the steps in the article below.

I was prompted to update itunes this evening. I did and in the process, it came up with the following error message: Service "apple mobile device" (apple mobile device) failed to start. Verify you have sufficient priviledges to start system services. I unistalled itunes completly and reinstalled but am still getting the same error message. If I click "ignore" the program will finish downloading but will not launch due to "not being installed correctly". Please help, I use this program alot with my first grade classroom and they're expecting their listening center in the morning.

Verify that you have sufficient privilages to start system services. I have uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it and continue to receive this message. I have untl now had no previous problems downloading iTunes.. any help would be greatly appreicated.
I tried and don't have that.
Doublechecking. Do you mean you you don't have the QTMovieWin.dll?
Did you proceed with the measures after that? (In the second box?) -

On my desk computer, I tried to download the new Itunes 11 version. I had Itunes 10. It goes thru the whole process and then says "Apple Mobilve Devide failed to start, Verify you have sufficient privileges to start service. I hit retry and then I get Installation successful followed by error 126. I can not enter Itunes at all now. If I click on the former icon it says MSVCR80.dll for error. I can't even figure out how to ask for support on this website. I have several devices linked to Itunes and need to sync.

1. Apple has posted their solution here: iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows- Unable to install or open - MSVCR80 issue.

I think i know what you are talking about. I think its just the case that you must take out your device and then plug it back in again and it should work hopefully. Hope that helps . If not im sorry
