I'm trying to re-install itunes on my laptop & I am getting a message that has stopped the re-install & it says: "Service 'Apple Mobile Device" (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."  The diaglogue box gives me the options to abort, retry, or ignore; when I tried retry and ignore the re-install process stays stalled & the dialogue box comes back & I don't want to abort & start this all over to probably end up with the same issue; what does this mean & what do I do?

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)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.

  • When I try to download the update to iTunes, I get an error message "Verify that you have sufficient privileges to stat system services",

    When I try to download theupdate to iTunes, it goes through all the steps until the final one, then I get an error message "Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services", then the download stops. Any ideas on how to rectify this?

    Hello Skeandhu,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with updating iTunes.  You may want try downloading the latest iTunes update directly from the Apple site.  When you are installing it, be sure you are logged in as an administrator:
    iTunes - Download
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you continue to see the same error, I recommend the steps in the following article:

  • Getting an error message when trying to reinstall iTunes - 'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start the system services.

    After a recent iTunes update my iTunes failed to start. I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it again, but during installation an error message pops up saying: 'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start the system services. The three option buttons which can be clicked are 'Abort', 'Retry' and 'Ignore'. I tried pressing ignore, which allowed iTunes to install. However, it seemed that not all parts off the programme installed, as it wouldn't allow me to open iTunes again. Whenever I press retry it just makes the same message pop up again. How can I show that I have 'sufficient privileges'?

  • Message: Services (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services'.

    When trying to download the new version of ITunes, I kept encountering a dialog box that said there was a problem with the APS Daemon.exe. Having read a few threads about the problem, I uninstalled ITunes and tried downloading the new version. Now, I'm getting a message saying: Service Apple Mobile Device (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
    I'm the only ITunes user on my laptop. I have no idea how to verify this. I've tried a few suggestions from other discussion threads, but none of them work. Beyond frustrating.
    Any solutions? Thanks.

    Work through the discussion in the user tip: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6562 and see if that helps.

  • TS1609 Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

    I recently purchased an Iphone 3gs, and already have an itunes account...Itunes wont recognize my iphone...I have uninstalled and installed itunes 2 times and keep getting this error message.
    Service ‘Apple Mobile Device’ (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
    How do I correct?

           I had the same problem but managed to fix it with Amy ; the apple advisor. Here are the steps!
    First of all, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed. You can download it from here. These instructions will NOT work for iTunes 8, 9 or 10 anymore. If you’re unsure, just uninstall iTunes then re-install with the latest files.
    Next, you need to manually copy the Mobile Device Support directory from a working machine to your Windows 7 computer. Luckily, I have conveniently provided these files for you. You can download them here:
    64-Bit iTunes 11.0.2: Please click here to download this directory for 64-bit Windows.
    32-Bit iTunes 11.0.2: Please click here to download this directory for 32-bit Windows.
    Once you download that file, you need to Unzip it to this directory. IMPORTANT: Make sure you unzip the CONTENTS of the zip file, don’t just copy over the zip file:
    32-Bit: Unzip to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple
    64-Bit: Unzip to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple
    There are a large number of files in that directory, so it may take a little time, please be patient.
    So, after unzipping, you should have a new folder “Mobile Device Support” in the Apple folder
    64-BIT ONLY STEP: If you have 32-bit Windows, skip this step. It seems that Apple has put the “Drivers” in a separate location (don’t know why). You will need to download the drivers separately. Please click here to download the files for 64-bit Windows.
    Once downloaded, you need to Unzip it to this directory. IMPORTANT: Make sure you unzip the CONTENTS of the zip file, don’t just copy over the zip file:
    Unzip to: C:\Program FIles\Common Files\Apple
    So, after unzipping, you should have a new folder “Mobile Device Support” in the Apple folder
    Next, we have to merge the registry entries that will install the Apple Mobile Device service.
    First, download the registry entries that I have provided for you here:
    64-bit iTunes 11.0.2: Click here to download the registry entries for 64-bit Windows.
    32-bit iTunes 11.0.2: Click here to download the registry entries for 32-bit Windows.
    After you download the registry entries ZIP file, unzip it to your desktop and double-click each to install it. Say “Yes” to any prompts or confirmations about adding it to the registry. There are 2 entries, make sure you click BOTH and add BOTH to the registry.
    Now, we need to install the correct driver for your iPhone / iTouch. Windows 7 incorrectly identifies the device  as a digital camera. To fix this:
    - Plug in your iPhone / iTouch (don’t have iTunes loaded at this time)
    - Go to Device Manager (Click Start, right-click Computer,  then click Properties. In the window that appears choose “Device Manager” on the left)
    - Scroll down and find “Apple iPod” or “Apple iPhone” or “Apple iTouch”. It will likely be under the “Portable Devices” category.IMPORTANT NOTE: If your device is already listed under “Universal serial Bus Controllers” and not Portable Devices, you can skip these steps and go to Step 7.
    -  Right-click the Apple device and choose “Update Driver Software…”
    - Choose “Browse my computer for driver software” in the window that appears
    -  It will ask you for a location; you want to Browse to this folder (location is the same in 32 and 64 bit Windows):
    32-bit and 64-bit: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
    - Click Next
    - It should find the driver for your device; let it install that driver
    Once you complete these steps, reboot your computer. Once you reboot everything should work exactly as expected!
