I am endeavouring to upgrade iTunes. The upgrade always stalls at a point where there is a need to access Apple Software Updater, which is reported as no longer being available on my network. In My Programs, I have a folder called Apple Software Updater, to which I can browse, but within which I cannot trigger any action. Instructions suggest uninstalling iTunes, then Quicktime, then Apples Software updater, at which the de-installation process stalls as it cannot be found, whilst being there. I am advised to seek Techical Support!
Any ideas, suggestions etc?

(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 Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Does it go through properly this time?

  • I run Windows 7 and the newest version (10.6) of iTunes will not install. The installer won't even begin, and when I run the Apple Software update, it tells me that iCloud and iTunes have invalid signature.

    When I run the Apple Software update, it tells me that iCloud and iTunes have invalid signature and will not be downloaded. When I DL iTunes64setup.exe, the program will not start (there's a bar that flashes but nothing actually begins). I've done everything short of reinstalling Windows to fix this (system resore, unistalling all Apple products, taking down firewall, running Windows FixIt - which either won't find the problem or gives me an error saying that the troubleshooter cannot be downloaded at this time, going into the security features to allow programs without valid signatures, trying to install earlier versions of iTunes). It all started when I downloaded the Decemberists new album on my iPhone, and it wasn't downloading it properly so I connected it to my Dell, but some songs still wouldn't DL - also, the newest OS for my iPhone still won't install via WiFi - and so I uninstalled iTunes first, but nothing is helping. And I don't have any security issues (Norton has checked). Any ideas? I'm at my wit's end after 3 days of this. Thank you.

    Ok, so after like 4 days of going through all these different issues, I figured out that several programs weren't downloading, and it was an issue with my wireless connectivity messing up the digital signatures, so if you plug in your comp to the modem and delete your temp files, it should start to work!

    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Well, then isn't there some way to induce Firefox to give Windows parameters that make it open the fershlugginer window in the *same* position, instead of an offset position?

  • HT5218 Safari 5.1.5 for Mac OS X Server v10.6 is no longer available for downloading, where I can find it?

    afari 5.1.5 for Mac OS X Server v10.6 is no longer available for downloading, where I can find it?

    FWIW, Software Update Server on OS X Server 10.6 did occasionally corrupt itself.
    If I had a case of that arise, I'd get a full backup, would shut off Software Update Server, apply the current OS X Server 10.6.8 combo update and the current and subsequent patches, then reset the Software Update Server caches and force a new download of everything, and then restart the Software Update Server.
    Alternatively — and given what I've encountering with 10.6.8-vintage hardware failures in the last few months — I'd probably look to migrate to newer hardware and newer software.  Those disks are getting old, after all.
    Software Update Server and Caching Server 2 on 10.9 have both been stable.
    The Reposado open-source implementation of Software Update Server might provide you with an alternative approach, if Software Update Server is being recalcitrant and if you can't upgrade.

    This forum is for questions about Apple Remote Desktop, Apple's software for managing networked Mac systems, and hence not the best place for your question. I'd suggest asking in the iTunes for Windows forum. You'll need to include more details, including the version of Windows you have, before anyone can do more than guess as to the problem.

    what should i do?

    Make sure that your Apple ID is up to date by going to "Apple ID" on a Apple website, answer your DOB, security questions.
    Create a new password for Apple if necessary.
    **Game Center, iCloud, iTune must have the same ID and the password.
    Then on the setting on your phone, go to "General", scroll down and make sure that "Restriction" is OFF.
    Go to Apple app.... you should be able to reload the app.
    I just followed the instructions on "support.apple.com"

  • Unable to import cds after installing iTunes latest version 10.1.0.56

    I downloaded iTunes 10.1.56 after having problems with the 10.1.0.54 version. I can only download the first 1/2 of song 1 and nothing from the rest of any cd. Under "time" for each song, my library says "Not available". When I click on it to listen it gets skipped over until a previously imported song comes up.

    There doesn't look to be any newer versions of Dell firmware for your DVD-ROM GDRH10N. It might be worth heading to Windows update and checking to see if there's a firmware update for that in your optional hardware updates.
    Otherwise, head to the following page at Dell:
    [Drivers & Downloads for Dimension E521|http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?os=WLH&catid=-1 &dateid=-1&impid=-1&osl=EN&typeid=-1&formatid=-1&servicetag=&SystemID=DIMP4E521&hidos=WW1&hidlang=en&TabIndex=&scanSupported=False&scanConsent=False]
    (It might indeed be worth entering your Service tag there, just to reduce the number of different available downloads for you to check through.
    Check in particular to see if your BIOS and the video driver for your ATI X1300 is up to date.
    There seem to be a lot of firmware updates for hard drives being listed for the E521, so also check to see if there's one for your hard drive. If so, it's probably best to update that too, just in case.
    If you were behind on anything and you update, try reimporting another of the CDs that has been importing poorly. Do you get a better import this time?

  • My imessaging doesn't work after the latest software update and was told that i will have to reset my phone will i lose my contacts if they are back up to icloud and how do i get them back from icloud?

    i need to know whether or not i will still be able to get my contacts back if i reset my phone to factory specifications

    If they are synced to iCloud and appear on icloud.com, they will reappear on your phone when you sign back into your account.  As a precaution, you could use an app like My Contacts Backup to back them up before you restore if you wish.  I would also recommend as a precaution that you import your camera roll photos and videos to your computer before restoring, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

    Ken Powers (Last update 9/25/2006):
    One additional note regarding Max Ustinov's comment:
    If you have multiple instances of SQL Server, you will need to repeat this process for each instance. For example, I have a default instance and a named instance. I must add the appropriate permissions to the bin folder of each instance. The folder for the default instance is the same one Max showed us:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.2\OLAP\bin.
    The folder for the named instance is:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.4\OLAP\bin.
    The folder requiring the permissions will be shown in the event regarding "msmdctr90.DLL".
    Max Ustinov (Last update 9/10/2006):
    I had 2 instances of this event in a row on a SQL 2005 Server. The first error stated "Resolve Partial Assembly failed for Microsoft.VC80.CRT.mui. Reference error message: Access is denied". The second error immediately after said "Generate Activation Context failed for C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.2\OLAP\bin\msmdctr90.DLL. Reference error message: Access is denied". These errors may also be accompanied by event 1008 and 1023 from source Perflib.
    I found that these errors are caused by the "Performance Logs and Alerts" service if it runs as "Network Service”, which is a member of "Performance Log Users" local user group. Although the individual DLL permissions are set, this group does not have enough permission to SQL AS bin folder. To fix this problem, for the "Performance Log Users" local user group, modify or add "List Folder Contents" permissions in the following folder:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.2\OLAP\bin.
    Mihai Andrei (Last update 8/15/2006):
    According to Microsoft, there are three possible causes:
    1.The component or manifest depends on another program or component that is not installed.
    2.The manifest contains XML content that is not valid.
    3.The user does not have the correct permissions.
    See MSW2KDB for solutions to this problem.
    This event occurs when you install SQL Server 2005 on a computer that is running the original release version of Windows XP, because SQL Server 2005 requires the GetSystemTimes function. The GetSystemTimes function is included in Windows XP Service Pack 1 (SP1) and in later Windows XP service packs. See M922669 for details on this situation.
    This problem can occur when you have version 5.2.3790.2426 or a more recent version of the Winlogon.exe program installed. See M914061 for a hotfix applicable to Microsoft Windows Server 2003.
    This problem occurs because the run-time libraries are not installed on the Microsoft Dynamics CRM server. The applications that use side-by-side libraries cannot run without the run-time libraries. See M923014 to resolve this issue.
    John Goulden (Last update 12/19/2005):
    This event occurs in conjunction with EventID 32 from source SideBySide and it is caused by an application that was not packaged with all of the necessary runtime files. In my case this was caused by the Logitech SetPoint software and was solved by getting the appropriate C++ 2005 Redistributable Package.

  • ITunes 5 Won't Install -- Hangs on Unscheduling Apple Software Update

    Windows 7 64bit
    Trying to update from last version to new version.  Install goes until it hits the part where the dialog box says "Unscheduling Apple Software Update," the green bars goes a partial way, stops, retreats.  Another dialog box appears and says "There is a problem with this Windows Installation Package.  A program required for this installation could not be run.  Contact..."
    Then it backs out and reverts to the original/last iTunes version.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanx!

    Here's the deal - 
    1.  can you install itunes via the APPLE SOFTWARE updater?
      I couldn't  so I downloaded ITUNES and tried to install it that way.   Hence  I got the same error hang as you.  Nothing worked,  (Multiple attempts at uninstall reinstall,  stopping of Services,  Reg cleaners  etc..)
    2.  If answer is NO to #1 you must fixe the APPLE SOFTWARE UPDATE Program. 
    OK  so I couldn't find a Download for this.   But:  if you have WINRAR,  open the ITUNES.EXE and extract the APPLESOFTWAREUPDATE.MSI file.  Execute the APPLESOFTWAREUPDATE.MSI separately.   And you will not be able to install it and have a similar issue as per your Itunes install.   This of course leads you to believe that the Itunes.exe  install is also installing all of these components including the applesoftwareupdate silently.   It must BOMB at that portion of the install and you are done.  
    3.  Your goal now is to get the applesoftwareupdate installed.   How do you do this.  Well -  here is what I did.
      a.  downloaded and RUN a PC  Installer FIX it tool from Microsoft.  This is a replacement for the older MSI fixer they used to use.
      http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
    b. It will list programs to attempt to fix.
      choose  AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi
    c. Once it is done,  then reinstall apple program updater using
    AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi
    Finally it should install since the Microsoft tool appraently fixed corrupted installation files in your registry for this application.
    (Please note:  that I also disabled any apple related services such as BONJOUR or IPOD DEvice RUN:  services.msc to get there -  although this man not be necesarry.)
    Hence Launch this APPLE UPDATE SOFTWARE (Click the ICON in your Start menu)  it should list ITUNES
    select ITUNES from here and it will update.
    KEY HERE is to ONLY UPDATE APPLE Stuff via the APPLE SOFTWARE UPDATE program.  If that program is not working fix it.  Then Bingo.
    I am sorry to see folks having this problem for weeks.  
    APPLE,   Spread the word.  PC's can get corruption in the registry on your product should the update be stopped or computer shut off during an update.  etc...   Please improve your software updater program to check for invalid registry upon launching the app.  This will prevent people thinking it is an APPLE issue.  It appears to be a problem on your PC's registry settings for the APPLE Software update.
