HT1923 I can't uninstall iTunes from the control panel on a Windows Vista machine. .

I need to uninstall iTunes so I can upgrade my Windows Vista machine to Windows 7 Home Premium. When I try to uninstall it tells me I can't because I don't have administrator privleges. I am the only user account on the machine and I have full administrator priveleges. Any idea how I can get iTunes to uninstall?

Hi,
If it was installed as a Firefox extension you can try to '''Remove''' it in Firefox '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''' > '''Extensions'''.

On the other hand, if it was installed as a Windows application or Internet Explorer application, you may have to uninstall it via the Windows OS Control Panel, or via the browsers concerned. The [http://answers.microsoft.com/ Windows support] would be helpful.

Hi, Dee5858
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
As you are receiving the network resource is unavailable message, completely uninstall iTunes and all of it's components in the order specified in the article below. Once this is done, download and install iTunes.

The article below will walk you through the steps to correct the network resource error. This will need to be done on each application that gives you that error.

How do i remove itunes from the control panel?

Hi all,
i have spent the past few weeks browsing these forums and others trying to find a solution to my problem. I am trying to remove all traces of the itunes program off my computer so that i can download the new copy. I have tried uninstalling itunes, bonjour, apple mobile support, quicktime, apple software update and apple application support and all but the itunes successfully uninstalled, i deleted the program files off my (C:) drive including the itunes program files but itunes still comes up in my control panel and when i click uninstall the uninstaller window pops up and says "preparing to remove" but then nothing happens, and when i click repair it says "preparing to install" but once again nothing happens, i have tried disabling all firewalls and antivirus and running the iTunesSetup.exe as an administrator but the same window pops up and says "errors occured during installation before itunes could be configured."
Someone please help me to solve this?

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 the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

Help - I can't uninstall CS2 throught the Control Panel Add/Remove Programs in Windows XP

I recently installed a solid state drive and when I went to use CS2 it wanted me to reactivate.

Can't uninstall Firefox using the Control Panel

No really good reason, but I'll install it back someday

You can manually remove Firefox by deleting its files and folders, for details see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox

I can not sign in to iCloud from the control panel on my PC

I just purchased the New iPad and decided to do the iCloud sync. I have installed the iCloud control panel to my Windows 7 Pro computer, but when I try to sign in from the control panel it doesn't log-in. I have waited for an hour to see if anything would happen and it does not. I have even tried to reinstall. Does anyone have any ideas?

I was having same issue here (using windows 7 64-bit). iCloud control panel used to work fine for me before this last update, but then it stopped letting me sign in. After entering apple id and password, just hangs with the spinning progress wheel forever..
I tried uninstalling, rebooting, and then reinstalling the control panel, but still did the same thing. I also tried changing my iCloud password; new password worked fine for signing onto icloud.com and from my iPhone 4S but still not from the control panel. The strange part was let it would let me log into it with my wife's apple id ??
That got me experimenting some more and I realized that the control panel worked fine from a different user profile on my windows computer! After experimenting and nosing around in my profiles 'AppData' folder, I managed to get it to work again:
If you have iCloud control panel log in window open, close it
Copy this path to your clipboard: C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Preferences
Goto start -> run
Paste the path and hit enter
From the folder that is opened, rename 'MobileMeAccounts.plist' out of the way (or you can delete it if want..)
Restart iCloud control panel and try logging on again. MobileMeAccounts.plist is regenerated the next time you sign out from control panel.
I'm guessing that somehow my (our) original MobileMeAccounts.plist has some sort of corruption in it, or maybe some log in attempt got hosed somehow and its preventing it from even trying? Who knows...
Hope it works out for you too!! ~~Corey

How do I uninstall Mozilla. when I try from the control panel, it doesn't do anything.

I deleted the maintenance section from the control panel section first, and now when I try to delete Mozilla, it sits there and does nothing.

Are you trying to uninstall Firefox because you are stopping using it, or to try to fix a problem?
Also, don't remove the maintenance service first, when you uninstall Firefox the maintenance service is also removed.

Hello Bradley,
sometimes the "opm.db file" is the culprit. In this case you should delete it.
But as much as I regret it and as strange as it may seem I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.
Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
I quote: ... helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
If necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html or http://helpx.adobe.com/de/contact.html and if "open" please use chat, I had the best experiences.
Good luck!

I strongly recommend that you install iTunes to the default C: paths. You can change the perferences to keep the actual music files on your D: partition.
Here is a place to start with the installer errors:

Unless you deliberately downgraded iTunes this may be a sign of a corrupt library. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash.

How can I uninstall iTunes from my PC and update my iPhone software?

I've been trying to update my iPhone 4 from iOS 4.1 to the newest version but I've encountered problem after problem.
First when I tried to update it through iTunes it said 'it cannot be restored at this time because the iPhone software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable at this time'.
Now when I connect my iPhone to my laptop it says 'iTunes requires a newer version of Apple Mobile Device Support. Please uninstall both Apple Mobile Device Support and iTunes, then install iTunes again.'
So when I got to the control panel to uninstall iTunes it says 'the Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact your personnel for assistance.'
I've been looking for a solution for hours and cannot find anything, I tried one solution which involved Regedit but it didn't work.
Can someone please please help me? I'm beginning to loose my mind!

HT1925 Can't Uninstall iTunes from my Window XP machine

The iTunes update site said nothing about uninstalling in a particular order. So I uninstalled the first component I came to in Control Panel which was "Apple Mobil Device Support". Now I can't uninstall iTunes. It tells me it is located in a network device which is not available to me, but it is on my "C" drive. How do I uninstall iTunes now? I can't install the new version till I get rid of the old. Help?

Now I can't uninstall iTunes. It tells me it is located in a network device which is not available to me,
(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
