I can't download the iTunes upgrade. The message says download did not complete , Widonws Installer Package did not run and part of the setup did not finish.

This forum was so helpful with my last issue so let's try this mystery....
My son has an iPod (probably 1-2 yrs old). Somehow when I set it up it transferred all of my photos to a library on the iPod. I can't figure out how to delete the photos and he can't buy any apps....no room.
Can anyone tell me how to get that darn photo library off the iPod?
Thanks!!!

If you're syncing photos from a folder, if you set up your photo syncing to sync to an empty folder, that should remove the photos from the iPod.
If you're syncing from Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements, there's advice in the following document on how to remove photos from the device:

Yes, I had found a similar solution also. I'm running XP Pro, SP3. I went Control Panels/ Add-Remove programmes/apple software update/ change/ repair. Then run the 10.5 exe.
While the programme updated from version 8 of iTunes, my new iTunes is now a mess. Not all of my music was in the same folder previously but it all showed up on iTunes. Now many albums have been left out, some have only a few tracks and some have two copies of some tracks as well as having other tracks missing. I haven't begun to work on that.

Repair your Apple Software Update.
Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install
If you don't find ASU in All Program, go to Control Panel, Add & Remove programs and repair it.

HT1222 i have an iphone 4.3.5 but cannot download facebook from the the itunes app - a message says requires ios5.0

Friends tell me to update software from iphone settings - but I don't have the option on my phone !!

Some models can only be updated to certain versions.
- https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do. This will show the make and model of the device. To find your serial number on an iOS device, simply tap settings / general / about - and you should see your serial number of your device.
If you iPhone can be updated, you would need to connect it to a computer via a USB cable, and then update it through the applications iTunes. If your computer does not have iTunes installed on it, you would need to install it first.

Solving MSVCR80 issue and Windows iTunes install issues.

I got a new iPhone 5 and since it wasn't updated to ios 8 version it didn't let me use my latest update, now I can't login to my iCloud without it saying it's incorrect but it does let me reset it and I use the password still tells me wrong Apple Id

I recently received a new iPhone 5 to replace my old broken iPhone 5 I backed up my old broken iPhone 5 into iCloud I checked to see it was all there, when it came to set up my new iPhone 5 my new iPhone 5 wasn't updated to the latest version my old one had ios8 my new one has ios7 so it gave me the choice to use another back up date which was from a year ago and I used to have another email as my primary for Apple ID and now my new iPhone is setup with my old Apple ID and every time I try to log in it tells me it's incorrect I reset the password but since it's another email it won't let me log on what can I do?

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

ITunes 10.5 Upgrade fails to Install. The Error Message is: "There is a Problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."

When Upgrading on my laptop from iTunes 10.2.11 to 10.5.0 the message I get is: "There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package. Aprogram run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or pacakge vendor.

After reading all these posts, one by one did not resolve my problem until I got the very end. Regardless of what step would resolve your problem, these are the steps I would recomment to everyone for a what seems to be a safe and fool-proof upgrade to iTunes 10.5.
1. Stand alone upgrade to the latest Quicktime version
2. Go to control panel and "change" then select repair to the following applications in the order specified by the post on Oct 27. (Notice I skipped Quicktime because it had been upgrade manually,and Bonjour did not have a "repair" option)
iTunes; Apple Software Update: Mobile Device Support; Apple Applications Support
Some of these applications may not appear if they do not apply to your configuration (no iPhone, or no iPad, or other apple devices).
Once all updated, I did not need to restart nor launch any applications, I simply went straight into the 10.5 upgrade, and where it normally got stuck, this time the installation continued for a while longer until it completed successfully.
Great work everyone who contributed! Thank you very much!

When installing itunes 10 uding windows xp I get the following error: "There is a problem with this Windows Installerpackage. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your sipport personnel or package vendor." - any ideas?

When downloading itunes 10 in windows xp, I get the following error "There is a problem with this Windoes Installer package. Aprogram run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor." - any ideas on how to proceed?

using MSICUU2.exe didn't help me. But, the new replacement app did:
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
I fixed my problem like this:
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.
