I'm trying to delete itunes so i can eventually reinstall

I have been trying to download the newest version of itunes, but an error message kept occurring and I haven't been able to complete the download.  So to fix this problem, I decided to delete itunes and all of its components and start fresh.  I am able to delete all of the components such as apple support and bonjour.  but when i have tried to delete itunes, a message appears saying the resource i'm trying to access is on a network that is unavailable and i can't delete it. 

when i have tried to delete itunes, a message appears saying the resource i'm trying to access is on a network that is unavailable and i can't delete it.
(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
Here's a screenshot showing the particular links on the page that you should be clicking:
After clicking one of the circled links, you should be taken to another page, and after a few seconds you should see a download dialog appear for the msicuu2.exe file. Here's a screenshot of what it looks like for me in Firefox:
Choose to Save the file. If the dialog box does not appear for you, click the link on the page that says "CLICK HERE IF IT DOES NOT". Here's a screenshot of the page with the relevant link circled:
When the dialog appears, choose to save the file.
(2) Go to the Downloads area for your Web browser. 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?

  • Can't get game to play so deleted it.   now can't reinstall.     says it is installed

    can't get game to play so deleted it.   now can't reinstall.     says it is installed

    If you type in its name on the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right) does that find it ?
    If it doesn't then have you tried a reset to see if the game then shows on the iPad's homescreen, or as not installed in the App Store app, after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Hi, i've accidentally deleted my imessage, how can i reinstall it?

    Hi, i've accidentally deleted my imessage, how can i reinstall it?

    Only by reinstalling OS X.
    Boot into your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting) and elect to resinatll OS X. It will take some time. None of you data, etc., will be erased (although it's always a good idea to have a backup).
    Good luck,

  • How can i delete itunes so i can reload a new database

    I have changed usb drives, but i tunes will not let me change the database. I have tryed to delete the program from my computer and reloaded it but
    Itunes still finds the old database not the new one, their has to be a file some where that i can't find that keeps the old info.
    Thanks for any help.WT.

    Launch iTunes while holding down the option (alt) key on your keyboard. When given the choice to create a new library or choose a library, select the "choose" button and navigate to your new library.

  • My Friend used my pc while it was on, and cheked his Facebook account, now my pc remembers his log in information including his password. I'm trying to register with Facebook, but my pc remembers his info. I'm trying to delete this mistake. Can you help?

    A friend used my pc to check his Facebook account, and used my account. Now, my pc thinks I am he whenever I try to register with Facebook. I didn't catch the mistake until recently and have been trying to delete the info but cannot. I tried to access all of my security settings and even tried to erase the history but I don't seem to be getting anywhere. I believe he mistakenly commanded my pc to remember his username and password. I am not currently registered with Facebook, but would like to be but I am having this problem. Is it significant or not? I don't want his info crossing with mine because of my ips numbers or something like that. He also, without my knowledge, accessed his e-mail, too. His username seems to pop up even if I try to "Like" something on Facebook. This is when I noticed the problem. Then, when I tried to Register with Facebook, I was mistaken for him. The registration boxes come already filled in with his info. I do NOT want to invade his privacy. His entire profile comes up complete with friends, pictures, etc...Please help! I cannot make a 'save' disk since I don't know exactly when this happened and I've loaded new programs, including security and related files.

    I am very happy to report that my server connection tech, which I called via landline, informed me to : 1. Open Tools 2. Scan down to Clear Recent History 3. Delete All. That was it! Unbelievable! Six hours of searching through the Windows catagories. I checked the results on an internet site, and viola! It was gone! Mozilla Firefox seems to remember the usernames and passwords irregardless of the option window that asks if you if want it to remember the user and password. I finally got in touch with my friend and he said he did not answer yes to the window, even though he was aware of it. No damage. I surely do appreciate everyones' concern in this, now what seems to be, a very simple solution. Cudos to Firefox! Thank-you! P.S. I now have to enter my information at the beginning of any password protected sites...no harm done! My friend is now condemned to the 'user account' site! lol...

  • How do i open Webpageicons.db? I'm trying to delete my favicons and can't!

    How do i open Webpageicons.db? I'm trying to delete my favicons. Way back some time ago I think instead of deleting the items inside the favicons file I sent the whole folder to the trash. So now I don't have a file folder, its a document page that Adobe Reader states it can't open. A pop up window reads: Adobe Reader could not open 'WebpageIcons.db' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). First of all I don't know what db is. Is it a document? Is there anyway to change  "db" into something that can be opened. I have 10.7mb in Webpageicons.db that need to be deleted. My Imac is loading pages very slowly and I think starting by emptying the favicons it may help. I have a iMac 3.2 Ghz intel Core i3 with 4 gb of memory. It's running OS X 10.6.8. Any help with solving this issue would be very appreciated. Thank you

    Try putting the file in the trash, but don't empty the trash. Restart your browser and see if web pages load any better. The file is a database file, which may have become corrupt.

  • I can't delete any files from my external hard drives since I tried to delete backups. I can't return backups or delete anything now.

    It started when I tried to delete back up files. It wouldn't let me delete them. Came up with "BootX" is locked, then "boot.efi" is locked. Holding down Option while emptying the trash didn't do anything. It wouldn't let me put them back in Backups.backupdb so I just left them in the trash.
    But now I can't delete any files from either of my external hard drives. please help!

  • HT4673 Accidentially deleted an app and can't reinstall

    MacBook Pro late 2011.
    Accidentally DELETED the app TEMPERATURE GAUGE. Logged in to the App Store and tried following these directions:  If you want to reinstall a deleted app, open Mac App Store, click the  Purchases icon, then click on the "Install" button for the app.
    INSTALLED is grayed out in my PURCHASES section. Will not allow any action. Went to the publishers website and the also recommend the above action. Nothing.  Open for suggestions?

    Has nothing to do with the upgrade. Some how I deleted the App Store download.
    There IS NO CHARGE for the upgrade from the publisher. BUT, the original app, 4.1 is required for proof of purchase / upgrade in App Store purchases.
    So in one way it does have something to do with the Upgrade process..
    If you have a Time Machine back up... you could try to recover your accidental deletiion of the App.
    How do I view or restore selected items?

  • ITunes missing and can't reinstall

    I just received a new video iPod 60 gb and now the iTunes program is missing. I have tried to install and it will not allow. Installer says that I don't need to install anything. I did a search in spotlight and everything is gone. The music and playlist file are there, but nothing else. Not even a library document. How can I reinstall iTunes off of the downloaded program from Apples site.
    Thanks for the assistance.

    I was having the same problem, and this solution worked perfectly. Thanks so much! These discussions are so much more helpful than Apple support docs = )
