I cannot install itunes because of an error while trying to create directory H:\Program Files why is this happening

I get this message when trying to install itunes, I have tried just about everything but nothing works. I have wiped ALL traces of itunes and started again...no luck...iI tried a 32bit instead of a 64 which is what my pc is rated for...no luck...it was all due to the latest version being released so I tried to upgrade but nothing works. Not even rolling back to a previous version is working.
Any ideas????

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?

  • An error occured while trying to create directory C:\Program Files\Common Files

    iTunes and Quicktime kept giving errors when trying to update so I tried to uninstall and re-install but I get the same error and now don't have iTunes. I get multiple errors for c:\program files\common files\apple\apple application support\webkit.resources\ru.lproj and c:\program files\common files\apple\mobile device support\com.apple.windowsmail.client.resources\pt.lproj\localizable.strings.

I have full administration rights and turned off all security. Any ideas???

  • I cannot install itunes because of an older version of bonjour that I cannot delete.

    I cannot install itunes because of an older version of bonjour that I cannot delete.

    (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 Bonjour 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?

    If you have the sample EMP table, the DEPTNO values are 10, 20 or 30.

  • Error while trying to create a new company

    Hey All
    I found an error while trying to create a new company.
    the Error like - No matching Records Found - [ODBC -2028]
    This can generate only database but not any tables in that database.
    Please help me.
    Thanking you
    Hepil Doshi

    Hello,
    I would prefer local language instead of US english.....
    My tips.
    1. DID you tried to Not apply the UDO/UDF things?
    2. Do not log in to the database, start from
    3. Please post the error message itself....
    4. If you are running on MS SQL 2005 server (not express) , You can start SQL profiler, and monitor the New Database creation.... you will see in profielr where is the error message and which tables / data is missing.
    If i know well,
    When you create a new company, the SBO-COMMON database is used to deploy the new database....
    If you get stock, reinstall your sbo-common from the last applyied patch..... (Detach SBO-common, move the files another directory, and start upgarder.exe).

  • JCO.Server Error while trying to execute a RFC program from SAP

    Hi,
    We are connecting to an external registered server program from SAP via Web Methods.
    The external server program is registered with the SAP Gateway. We have created a TCP/IP RFC destination and are able to connect to the destination successfully via SM59.
    An RFC function is created in SAP and is called using the syntax CALL FUNCTION "/NGN/BAPI_STRE_SEARCH_PROCESS" DESTINATION 'PRDB2B'. We have also handled the COMM_FALIURE and SYSTEM_FALIURE exceptions in the function call.
    We are monitoring the gateway via SMGW and see a connection log to the RFC destination as below
    Number - 10
    LUname - dev01
    TPName - sapgw00
    User - KRAORANE
    Status - CONNECTED
    Symbolic - PRDB2B
    Conversation - 86520353
    Prot - REG
    SAP return code - 0
    CPIC rtn code - 0
    The external program returns results as expected.
    However sometimes the RFC fails and returns the message “JCO.Server could not create server function /NGN/BAPI_STRE_SEARCH_PROCESS”.
    We are not able to figure what exactly is causing this error. Any help will be highly appreciated.
