I cannot get my PC to download the lastest version of itunes.  Any ideas on what to do PLEASE!

I have my i tunes on a PC running Windows XP and it won't update the the latest version of itunes.  Can any one help?

Many thanks.
(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 iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • I just downloaded the lastest version of iTunes but when it comes up it has a error message saying to reinstall or repair it and I did that and it did not work

    I just donloaded the lastest version of iTunes but when it opens it says a componet was not installed repair or reinstall it.  I did and the same thing happens.  Any ideas?

    I am also having the same issues. 
    I followed iTunes instructions after receving the first error message which said
    "iTunes compnent not installed.  Please repair or re-install iTunes (-45075)"
    First tried to repair installation - same error result
    Second re-installed by downloading from Tools as download only
    Why are there no responses to these queries? 
    Apple surely knows what one should do to repair?

  • Problems after downloading the lastest version of iTunes for my iPod Touch. Now whenever I switch on my laptop and access the internet I get an error message. 2nd time this has happened and I'm fed up trying to fix it. Anybody having similar problems?

    I've downloaded iTunes 10.5 onto my iPod Touch, no problems but I've now got a constant error message on my laptop everytime I switch it on and access the internet. The message is "The procedure entry point xmlTextReaderConstName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxml2.dll"
    This is the 2nd time this has happened. Last time iTunes Support called and we ran through a load of checks to no avail. The only option was to delete iTunes completely off my laptop and go for a new download of it. Can anybody tell me how to do it - didn't write it down last time, silly me, never thought it would happen again. Also sent an email to iTunes Support - waiting for a response.

    Maybe:

    Also I requested that your email address be deleted. Personal responses are not given in this forum

  • I tried to download the lastest version of itunes for my windows based desktop.  Error message "Apple mobile device failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient provledges to start system services." Uninstall & reinstalling itunes didn't work

    Hi Communitiy.
    I have a window desktop and have had itunes for ever.  The latest update failed and I am getting a strange error message.  "Apple mobile Device failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privledges to start system service."
    I have iphones and I am wondering if a sync of iphone and I tunes has somehow screwed up everything.
    The update will not load.  I have even tried uninstalling itunes and reinstalling. 
    I get the same exact message as before.  
    I am stuck as to what to try or do.

  • My itunes doesn't work after installing lion 10.7. I even downloaded the updated version of itunes, does anyone know what to do?

    itunes doesn't work anymore

    My itunes was working fine until we try to connect a new ipod touch. It said I needed to update the itunes to 10.5 or higher. To do that I had to update my OS X  Lion also.. now it doesn work... grrrr. Please if you have the solution post. I am placing a call to apple support to see if they can help me. Also I was looking for alternative software in case I can't make it work. Do you have any recommendations? Thank you and I am sorry I cant be helpful yet.

  • HELP!  I downloaded the newest version of iTunes and now it won't open.

    Hello, Everyone--any help you could give would be greatly appreciated since I am freaking out a bit about this!
    I have had iTunes since April when I got my iPod mini. I have downloaded the newer version of iTunes any time it has prompted me to do so when I open iTunes.
    So, tonight it tells me there is a newer version. I download it just like always, but this time, when I double click on iTunes, nothing happens. So, I read some of the other posts on here and followed some of the directions like going in to the add/remove hardware and seeing if it's there and then repairing it. I did just that--it's there and it repaired it, but to no avail. I am stressing out now. Now, when I go to shut down my computer, it takes several minutes to shut down--and it never did that before. My computer is newer and was working fine until this happened. Yes, Quicktime appears to be working fine. I am just wondering if I did something wrong or if there is a HUGE flaw with this new iTunes version since it would appear others are also experiencing technical difficulties. Any help any of you could give would be greatly appreciated! I have a Dell Dimension 2400 with the Windows XP operating system. And once again, I have never had problems with iTunes until today. Oh--and when I plug in my iPod, that doesn't pull iTunes up either now. HELP!!!
    Thank You,
    Alexis

    I don't know whom to thank first-- b noir for telling me about the Lorraine fix or Lorraine for figuring out the fix. THE LORRAINE FIX WORKED FOR ME!!! (I feel a little like I am advertising "Hooked on Phonics" with that last line!)
    Thank you doesn't say it strongly enough, but THANK YOU b noir and Lorraine for your help. I was to the boiling point last night and starting to get there tonight. Now I am resting easy and thankful that there is a community of computer users out there who care enough to troubleshoot problems together and work together to figure out a solution--and then to take the time to post and share information.
    I would STRONGLY suggest that anyone who is having the iTunes issues where iTunes just plain won't open at all after downloading the newest version and has a pc with Norton Internet Security 2005 try the "Lorraine Method."
    I am so happy I think I might sing. Or not--I will let my songs on iTunes do the singing for me now that I can again!!!!!!!
    And to those still looking for answers--be patient--I now know how incredibly frustrating this can be and I hope that you all find your solutions very very soon!!

    i cannot download the latest version of itunes to my pc.  i am running windows7. i get the following message, "the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable".

    Which particular .msi file does the message go on to say cannot be found? (Several different .msi files might be mentioned in this context: itunes.msi, bonjour.msi, AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi, etc.)

  • I can open my iTunes and play my purchased music, but I cannot get into the iTunes store.  btw, I just downloaded the new version of iTunes

    I downloaded the new version of iTunes, and now, I cannot get into the iTunes Store. 

    many thanks.
    I am in my iTunes application and when I press the link to connect to the iTunes Store, it starts churning, and churning, but never connects. It has churned for hours and when I finally click the "X" to close it, I get error code 11222.
    I'd try the following document:

  • HT1926 I tried to download the latest version of iTunes but now seem to have lost everything and can not access my library at all. Instead i keep on receiving the message 'Application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. I cannot access

    I tried to download the latest version of iTunes but failed half way through. It suggested that i reinstall we I tried. However, i now get this message which states "Application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem"
    I have tried this but with no success. I have therefore found that I cannot access my iTunes library at all now.
    What should I do.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Yesterday I downloaded the newest version of iTunes.  I now cannot 'click

    Yesterday I downloaded the newest version of iTunes and now I cannot 'click & drag' songs from iTunes to GarageBand.  I could do this the day before, but not with the new version of iTunes.  Any ideas?

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START>PROGRAMS>ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 n above) - START>PROGRAMS>ACCESSORIES>Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

    I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and now I cannot play the songs in order. It will skip around or just stop playing the song currently playing when it is finished. I just want to play an album from start to finish. The shuffle feature is turned off.

    It is working now. I no longer get the message about the item not being available in the US and I can access the store.
