HT1923 I am trying to run iTunes and have been advised that i must uninstall and install again. However, in Control Panel, I don't have the option the uninstall. HELP!!!

I am trying to run iTunes. When I do I get this message "Apple Application Support was not found. Apple Application Support required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes and install iTunes again. Error 2 (Wiindows error 2)" . However, in Control Panel, there isn't an option to remove or unistall iTunes, only an option to repair.
Now, when I dowloaded iTunes, i saved it to my flash drive so that i can have it with me whereever I go. I am not sure if the problem stems from there. I also did this so as not to save it on my work computer but still be able to run it from my flash drive.
Please HELP. I miss my music and podcast.

Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.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 AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Issue running Forms. System keeps trying to run OAJInit and install JRE 5.0

    Hi,
    Just changed to a new machine and trying to access forms from Firefox, IE and/or Netscape. When clicking on a link that should take me to forms, I am asked to download and install OAJinit.exe, with the following message:
    In order to access this application, you must install the J2SE Plugin version 1.5.0_03. To install this plugin, click here to download the oajinit.exe executable. Once the download is complete, double-click the oajinit.exe file to install the plugin. You will be prompted to restart your browser when the installation is complete.
    Installation of JRE 1.5 goes well, but when trying to run forms, I am still prompted to download OAJInit.exe... If I proceed with the installation, I get
    "you already have this version of the JRE installed. Please uninstall the product through your add/remove programs utility before reinstalling."
    Any idea what I could do wrong?
    Thanks

    I agree with Renato,
    The $OA_HTML/bin/appsweb_INSTANCE_server.cfg (or appsweb.cfg in single Apps node configuration) file is right there JINIT/Client JRE configuration is stored on a server side.
    It is advisable however to adjust an autoconfig context configuration file and then run autoconfig then instead of modifying configuration file manually.
    Plus as far as I know using Sun J2SE 5.0 on a Clint side is in Early Adopter Program and isn’t certificated for wider public.
    REF http://blogs.oracle.com/schan/newsItems/departments/release11i/2006/04/18#a23
    Replacing Oracle JInitiator with Sun's Native Plug-In
    But let me ask the following question before you will go ahead with Renato’s suggested:
    - Is this problem appeared only on that single PC?
    - If yes then which Jinitator version is used on other PSs to get connected to the particular environment?
    - Can you try in IE Tools-> Internet Options…-> Advanced -> Java (Sun) and untick Use JRE 1.5.0 ... Try to connect to the environment after that.

  • ITunes wont open because I'm missing msvcr80.dll? It said to remove iTunes and install again but it wont work, HELP?

    I just want my iTunes back I think I accidentally deleted msvcr80.dll? What should I do?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)

    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.

  • Error when trying to run itunes

    I downloaded ace codecs pack for my pc and after installing I tried to run itunes and i receive an error every time I try!
    PLZ help me I dont wanna format the pc agein

    hello the moon!
    I downloaded ace codecs pack for my pc and after installing I tried to run itunes and i receive an error every time I try!
    gaah ... are you currently getting an "itunes has encountered an error ..." message? if so, does your QuickTime currently give you an error message when you try to launch it?
    the Ace Mega Codec Packs have been breaking QT 7 and itunes lately. i think it's something to do with some versions of the codec pack containing the old QT 6.5.2.10 codecs, but i'm not precisely sure what the mechanism is.
    first, let's try a careful standalone QT 7.0.3 reinstall. download and save a copy of the the standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off all antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
    Quicktime 7.0.3 Standalone Installer
    if you get an error message on the install, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.
    if the install goes through, do QT and itunes launch properly again?
    love, b

  • I have about 14 gbs of Other on my iPad. After searching, I notice that it is mostly photos. Years and years of photos. However, when I sync, I only sync the last 6 months. I have tried deleting all photos and syncing again. No luck. Any suggestions?

    Read the User Tip that razmee209 linked for you in the post above. If nothing in there works, there May be something on your iPad that is corrupt. Backup the iPad, restore to factory settings, and them restore the backup. If that doesn't fix it, restore as new and download all of your purchased content again.

  • Tried to reinstall itunes and got apple application support not found. i have a folder on my desktop of apps removed during a refresh and all my apple stuff is in that folder.

    Im running windows 8 on my desktop. i tried to reinstall itunes and when i open it i get the following message " Apple Application Support not found, Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes". I have a folder on my desktop that has files in it that says Apps removed during refresh and  there is Apple files in there.
