I can't install itunes 10.7 on windows. Schema.strings error message

I cannot install itunes 10.7. All I get is an error message which reads
Error writing to file: C:\Programme Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\SyncServices\Schemas\Bookmarks.synchschema\Contents\Resources\fi.lproj\ Schema.strings Verify you have access to that directory.
The schema.strings file is in the location required but I still can't install.

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

HT1349 I can not install iTunes on my PC, I get an error message: "Unable to remove the previous version of Apple Software Update". How should I resolve this problem.

I can not install iTunes on my PC, I get an error message: "unable to remove previous version Apple Software Update"

(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 aCode 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 Updateentries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Next, select any Bonjour 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?

You seem to have installED iTunes and are trying to connect your iDevice, is that right?
iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
Your statement - "installING" - also might indicate that you have insufficient privileges in Windows to properly install & use iTunes.

Can't install itunes 10.4 on Windows 7 home premium

I am not highly technical, so please bear with me:
After repeatedly being unable to update itunes 10.2, I thought I should just uninstall it and install itunes 10.4. Wow, what a mistake. After many hours I now can't run my MS Office programs AND I can't load or run itunes.
Originally, while trying to update itunes, I kept getting the message "errors occurred while installing the updates. If the problem persists, choose tools > download only and try installing manually." This confused me as I could not find "tools."
After some reading online, I decided what I should do is download the Windows Installer clean up tool. Apparently this was the BIG mistake. I selected Apple items to remove with msicuu.exe, only to find that now my MS Office 2010 programs no longer run ("Microsoft Office not installed for this user"), and I still can't install itunes.
I tried installing itunes 10.2 and got a message that I must install a 32-bit version of itunes.
I used the cleanup tool once again and tried to install itunes 10.4, and got the message: could not open key: UNKNOWN\components\DA42BC89BF25F5BD0AF18C3B9B1A1EE8\6A262021B4A79884EA585F5E86D 86338. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key or contact your support personnel.
Now when I try to run MS Office software, getting message "Preparing to install", then, Configuring Microsoft Office Professional Plus, then something about the program not being installed for this user (I'm the only user).
I realize that this board probably can't help me with MS Office software, but can you help me with itunes?

Can't Install iTunes on my pc windows 7

I'm having trouble installing iTunes on my Windows 7 64-bit. I keep getting this error message everytime I runthe installer file.
Can someone please help me? It's becoming really frustrating.
And it's not a problem from my pc. It's brand new.

For installation program, you are not supposed to copy files over from another system like that. All installation must go through normal installation files on yor system which will update your system registry. Otherwise, it won't work. Now your system is all messed up.
Guess you have to do Uninstall and Re-install of iTunes from scratch.
Try the following steps:
1. Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:
it may be necessary to remove all traces of iTunes, QuickTime, and related software components from your computer before reinstalling iTunes.
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Follow the instructions from Apple article listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 to remove all components
***follow strictly to article HT1923 to remove all traces of Apple Programs*****
3. Go to this link to download Revo-Uninstaller. Run it to clean up last traces of Apple software on your system and registry.
http://download.cnet.com/Revo-Uninstaller/3000-2096_4-10687648.html?tag=mncol;1
4. Reboot your computer. Next, download iTunes from here:http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ and install from scratch
Followed all your instructions thoroughly, still same result
Also the last three software components kept coming back even though I've uninstalled them many times

Can't install iTunes 64 bit on windows 7

I reccently attempted to update itunes on both my computers on my Desktop it was done in 10 mins however on my laptop it first gave a intall error 7 and then I searched online for a fix and saw how uninstall all apple components worked for some people and decided to give it a try. Now when I attempt a clean install of itunes i get two errors sometimes it is apple mobile device failed to start and I attempt to start it manually with no sucess and I get an error to verify that I still have acess to a folder, which I have and I have attempted to install itunes now for nearly a week and all my music is on my laptop and documents and my laptop is a 64 bit windows 7 OS so pls help

Many thanks.
I think you've got two different types of problem going on at once here. Let's try clearing this second error out of the way first.
the second is "Error writing to file: C:\ Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Webkit.resources\inspector\Images\timelinePillGreen.png. Verify that you still have acess to that directory."
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.

Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through without that particular error message afterwards? (Whether this works or not, we still might have to deal with the system services message.)

Can't install iTunes 7.5 on Window XPP

When I run the iTunes installer it goes through the runs and just disappears about 1 min into the install. I was getting error 1704 before, but not now. It just disappears on me. Got a new iPhone and cant even upload my content to it. Any help is appreciated.

I have a similar problem on my system. I am running XP Pro SP2. I was able to install Itunes 7.0x, but since then no other upgrades have been possible. I download then during the install the computer simply crashes. Screen goes black and the computer restarts..and itunes has not been upgraded. I have uninstalled everything I can find that is associated with QT and Itunes, and still no success. I followed the Apple General Install and Troubleshooting guide....but still no luck.

Can't install iTunes 12.1 on Windows 7 64-bit.

This seems to happen with every fifth or sixth iTunes update, and iTunes is incapacitated until the following update. In this case, the error message is as follows:
An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft VC80.CRT .type="win32" .version = "8.0.50727.6195" HRESULT: 0x80070091

Ready to roll up your sleeves and try again?
The steps below should result in a set of detailed log files on the desktop for the selected installer. Once generated review the logs for clues as to why particular components would not install.
Uninstall all Apple components, as shown in second box of the troubleshooting user tip.
Extract the .msi files from your chosen setup file into the root of drive C:\
See the Install missing components section of the user tip for more information on this step.
Triple click the first line from the relevant batch below that corresponds to your setup file.
Press Ctrl+C on your keyboard to copy the selected line.
Press the WindowsLogoKey (between Ctrl and Alt) +R to open the run dialog.
Press Ctrl+V on your keyboard to paste the selected line.
Press Enter/Return on the keyboard.
Follow any on screen prompts.
Repeat for the next line.
You will end up with 5 or 6 text files on your desktop which are the installation logs.
You should review the log for any component that failed to install correctly using Notepad or Notepad++ looking for keywords such as error or failed.
