HT203345 quicktime and itunes will not install on windows 7 (64) ?

I have been trying for hours and hours to download and install Quicktime/iTunes on a PC with windows 7 (64bit).
It installs until 'Publishing Product Information' then it says congratulations its loaded. then I get :
Apple application was not found.....Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes Helper, please uninstall iTunes and the install again.
which I have over and over and over for hours and hours.
all I want to do is install Quicktime for Windows can someone please help me with what I am doing wrong ?
Regards.

Hello db133,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I understand that you're unable to open iTunes after installing it due to an error with the Apple Application Support.  I see that you've gone through and reinstalled multiple times, but there are specific steps for removing and reinstalling iTunes which I think would help resolve this issue.  Those steps are found in the article linked to below.

  • HT4759 iCloud and iTunes will not install on Windows 8

    I've had to upgrade to Windows 8 and I cannot get either iTunes or iCloud to install.
    I have tried:
    -installing as Administrator
    -installing in Compatibility Mode as Windows 7
    -installing as Administrator in Compatibility Mode
    -disabling my firewall while doing the above
    Does anyone have any more suggestions?  I really need to be able to connect my iPhone and offload photos and organize my music again.
    Thanks,
    Lisa

    Thank you for your beautiful input.
    If you wrote that it wasn't a fresh installation, I missed it.
    Of course, for removal of iTunes and its re-installation there is a comprehensive document.
    Which is quite an involved procedure and all 'Apple' components have to be removed in specified order, removal verified and then iTunes installed.

  • Itunes will not install on windows 7 home

    Any one had this issue
    Itunes will not install on windows 7 home

    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
    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.

    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • MultiMedia Center for Think Offerings for Windows XP and 2000 -- will not install on Windows 7

    MultiMedia Center for Think Offerings for Windows XP and 2000 -- will not install on Windows 7  in compatibility mode or any other way. I receive error " can not open \device\memory" and then " This program can not run on his hardware.
    Thinkcenter E series 8291-ETU --- upgraded from XP to Windows 7 yesterday.
    Any ideas on how to get this product installed in Windows 7 ?

    I recently did a clean install of Win7 Ult on my X61 7676A24, and this is the only Lenovo software that I could not find a Win 7 solution for. However,
    1. I was able to load WinDVD8 upgrade (from Lenovo's Win7 information page) after first loading the WinDVD5 version that was the last good release for Vista.
    2. The Multimedia Center for Think Offerings is basically Roxio's suite for writing cd/dvd's, drag to disc and so on.
    Since I could not load this anyway, I was forced to try out Win7's inbuilt cd/dvd writing - it works perfectly well.  Even better, Win7 natively supports an excellent ISO burning tool. So, I think if you explore these inbuilt tools, you can probably live without the Mul Cent for Think Off.

  • ITunes will not install on Windows XP machine

    I have tried to install iTunes on my Windows XP machine (Home Edition - SP2 loaded)and it keeps bombing out, I have all the symptoms as decribed in the attached Support problem
    *No error message displays, however the iTunes installation disappears from screen and does not finish and iTunes is not installed. This happens right after "Publishing product information" appears on the screen.*
    I have tried the suggested fixes, including repairing Windows.
    Any help/suggestions appreciated.
    Tx

    Tony Sheridan,
    In Windows goto control panel>add and remove and uninstall iTunes AND quicktime if there listed. Then go here and roll down to "Clean up iTunes installer files on the computer" http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
    Now scan your system for malware with ewido http://www.ewido.com
    After that disable antivirus and any security programs then goto apple.com and download/install the latest iTunes.
    If that does not work go here and install "Quicktime WITHOUT iTUnes" http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html

  • Itune will not install on windows 7

  • Itunes will not install..windows INSTALLER service not available.windows 7

    I am trying to find a fix for this...just bought a new computer with windows 7, all updates have been performed. Itunes will not install...it just stops and says "windows installer service not available" Can't find a stand alone downloadable version of installer 5.0 which is what comes with 7 from the research I have done. I have the newest version of itunes saved on desktop, tried running it from desktop, tried running as admin, tried several other ideas that I found on here and Microsoft..but nothing is working. Any advice?
    Message was edited by: ehindahl

    Same error message "This version is for a 32 bit computer, yours is a 64 bit!"
    Doublechecking ... by any chance did you migrate a 32-bit version of the iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Support and Bonjour programs to the 64-bit machine from a 32-bit machine using the PC Mover utility?
    (Your symptoms are consistent with that ... the installer service throws the message when trying to uninstall the 32-bit itunes and related 32-bit componentry prior to installing the new 64-bit versions.)

  • Quicktime  and Itunes will not launch!

    Both quicktime and itunes come up with errors whenever I try to lauch them. I have tried nearly EVERYTHING and they will not start! This is quicktime error-
    Quicktime Player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Error signature is BEX

    Interesting. In that case, the errors are probably being caused by the absence of the two files I mentioned earlier. Haven't seen one of those for a while.
    We'd better swap out your existing QuickTime. We'll take a few additional explicit precautions along the way, just in case.
    First, download and save a fresh copy of the QuickTime installer (QuickTimeInstaller.exe) to your hard drive. (Don't run the install online, and don't start the install from the downloaded installer just yet. Use the download option that doesn't mention iTunes.)
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    Now head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel. Uninstall QuickTime.
    Next we'll clear away any leftover QuickTime program files or folders.
    In "My Computer" open "Local Disk C:" or whichever drive your program files are installed on.
    Open the "Program files" folder.
    Right-click on the "QuickTime" folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
    Empty your recycle bin and restart the PC.
    After the PC restarts, do not open any applications. Disconnect from your network and/or the internet. Now switch off all your security software (firewall, antivirus, antispyware).
    Now start the reinstall by doubleclicking the QuickTimeInstaller.exe file you downloaded earlier.
    Reenable all security software prior to reconnecting to your network and/or the internet.
    Did the QuickTime install seem to go through properly? If so, are iTunes and QuickTime launching for you now?

  • Quicktime and itunes will not open error message

    I think their is suppose to be two files (QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx) in the systems 32 folder. But there is a quick.ime also in the folder, do I delete it so that my quicktime and itunes work.

    No, quick.ime is not part of Quicktime. Don't delete it.
    If Quicktime will not open, then iTunes can't work.
    Can you give the Quicktime error message in full, and also check in your Windows error logs or Problems & solutions to see if there is more information there.
    You haven't given your Windows version which helps when troubleshooting.

  • ITunes will not install in Windows XP Home

    What's the precise text of the error message, viv? (That may give us a heads up on what the issue is in this case.)

  • Quicktime and itunes will not open - buffer overrun in quicktime

    I cannot open Itunes. It says it needs quicktime. quicktime will not open. says buffer overrun. reinstalled both itunes and quicktime. both used to run prior to updates. Help.

    Quicktime was working on my Vista computer up until a short time ago. I believe one of the Microsoft updates crippled it. I have looked at several forums and read the other threads on this site and from what others have described I really believe now that Microsoft did this with one of their updates. There are many problems with Vista all due to Microsoft trying to force developers to use only their products. Unfortunately they are squeezing us customers really hard.

  • Rescue and Recovery will not install on Windows 7 upgrade

    I have a thinkpad SL500 that I upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 a week ago.  I have tried to install Thinkvantage Rescue and Recovery but get this error message during the initial install:  "Rescue and Recovery does not support installing from the operating system which upgrade from legacy preload system." 
    I did load Win 7 32 bit from a legacy Vista preload system.  I have been trying to install R&R v4.5.  Is there a workaround to get ThinkVantage R&R on this Windows 7 machine?  Thanks, John 

    Win 7 does come with it's RE environment.  On my pc I can:
    (1) boot into windows 7 (default)
    (2) PF8 boot windows into Safe mode, which will allow me to Launch the Windows recovery environment.  This is
    mostly a Repair environment, but can invoke other items, such as Windows restore.  This is NOT an restore from backup tool , per se.
    (3) PF 11 boot into RNR standalone environment.
    All 3 have Bootable software on my C drive, and entries in the BCD (boot control data). Could you document what your pc/laptop was shipped with from Lenovo.  An original windows vista or windows 7? A shipped Lenovo, with win 7,should have a Z partition and a X partition.  One has the RNR standalone, the other has the Factory install data to reset back to OBE, out of the box experience.
    Did you purchase a WIN 7 DVD upgrade disc from a retailer? Could you also post a screen shot from Disk management that shows the attributes of the D drive.  I am trying to find out if the D drive is Active
    Check under the status line,  HEALTHY(Active,primary partition). Did you try the Diskpart command?. 
    You do not need to worry about SYSPREP.  It is mainly an Administrator tool for deploying system images.
    By the button, do you mean the Thinkvantage blue button?  This just tells the BIOS to boot into the RNR standalone environment.   My original system was a Vista.  Thus I have no experience verifying the X and Z drives.  This info is just from reading other posts.
    ===
    As a side note, Does your win 7 support Bitlocker? Can you view the contents of YOUR D drive?
