  • HT1926 cant install itunes on windows 7 64bit . cant run a required dll

    i cant install itunes on windows 7 64bit . when i run the setup and reach the status : "performing installation checks" , it said "there is a problem with this Windows Installer Package . A Dll required for this install to complete could not be run.v..v" what should i do now ?

    That's a bit rarer. It's a 1723 error message. (1721 and 1722 are more common.)
    Even though the following user tip is about slightly different errors (the 1721 and 1722), perhaps try it with your one too:

  • No matter what I do I cant delete itunes from my computer so I can install newest software.

    no matter what I do I cant delete itunes from my computer so I can install the newest software?

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then seeRecover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

    Apple, apparently, had a fix up for an earlier version of itunes, but that is gone from the web page, and has been yanked.

  • Cant delete Itunes.dll  - install of update wont complete

    how the F*(k do I get full admin control on windows 7, so I can delete this freaking file - so that Itunes can complete the install?
    Help!
    Message was edited by: Gian_strabo

    It often indicates disk/file damage rather than a permissions issue, Gian.
    Let's first try running a chkdsk over your C drive. There's Windows 7 instructions in the following document. 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 choose to go about things). You should be prompted to schedule the scan to run on restart. That sort of scan of the C drive should take a long time ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan:
    http://www.w7forums.com/use-chkdsk-check-disk-t448.html (How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk))
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Cannot upgrade to itunes 11.0.1 or 11.0.2 without deleting iTunes off windows computer! HELP!

    I have a windows vista 32-bit pc. Every single time I try to upgrade to itunes 11.0.2 on restarting itunes has been deleted. Reinstalling itunes by downloading the installer through the apple website doesn't work and I have to do several system restores before I get it back. I have not been able upgrade for the past couple of months for 11.0.1 either. This is really frustrating please help!

    I had the same problem today with iTunes on my Windows XP desktop.  The problem lies with Windows  which does not allow a complete removal of the old Itunes version.
    Install the file from this link
    http://http://support.microsoft.com/fixit
    Follow the instructions and the fixit file will totally remove all the old ITunes files from the registry.  After that is done, download the new iTunes from Apple and there will be no problem.
