I need to reinstall iTunes

I keep getting a message when I open iTunes on my PC (Windows 7).  Everything has been fine until the last time I received a notice that there was an update to itunes.  It automatically downloaded and said that there was an error in installing the update.  Now everytime that I open iTunes, it says that I can't burn CD's.  When I order something from Audible, it does not go directly into iTunes.
When I go to the Audible Downloader and try to select "iTunes," Audible indicates that iTunes is not installed.  When I download an audible book, I must then open iTunes, go to the File=>load file into library button.  Only then can I load it onto my iPod Classic.
How do I go about reinstalling iTunes?  I can download the new version from "Help -> Check for Updates" but it will not install.  Any advice? 
I know that this should be simple but I'm struggling.  I'm 65 and I miss the obvious stuff sometime.

This is the information from the final diagnostics screen with only DVD/CD checked.  Question follows:

In the control panel, I only have the option of uninstalling and than do a reinstall.  No "repair install."  If I uninstall, will I have to bring in all previous recordings manually?  I'll stop asking questions until you let me know the next step.  Thanks, B

    Make a backup of your media and other important files.
    Just to be safe, make a backup of your entire iTunes directory.
    Restore computer or do whatever it is you need to do.
    Restore your media and other important documents.
    Install iTunes.

  • ITunes was not installed properly.  If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes

    With Windows 7 I have completely deleted anything that was associated with Apple, Help, Support, you name it.  It was verified nothing Apple.  Reboot took place.  I reinstalled iTunes per instructions and once again I got the following:
    iTunes was not properlyinstalled.  If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes.
    Oviously something is amiss.

    Having finally found a post to the same situation, I ran diagnostics and believe I have the same problem as this post.  Here is the diagnostic report:

  • ITunes is not installed properly. If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes .

    I have installed iTunes on my new Windows 8 laptop and I get the "iTunes is not installed properly.  If you wish to Import or burn CDs you need to reinstall  iTunes." 
    I have worked with Dell technicians and we have re-installed iTunes numerous times.  We modified the Registry by adding the Upper Filters key and we removed the CD player in Device Manager and allowed it to be automatically reinstalled by the computer.  All of this failed.
    Please help!

    Hello ,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    I understand you've already uninstalled iTunes previously to troubleshoot this issue but make sure to follow the steps in the following article to remove iTunes and all of its components in the specific order listed.

    I tried to install an itunes update yesterday on my Dell Laptop.  I kept getting an error message.  Now I cannot access itunes and it says I need to reinstall itunes.  Will I lose all of my music?

    Installing, and uninstalling, applications never touches or removes the data.
    Clean out and uninstall all the apple programs and software thru Programs and manually.
    Might want to use Revo and CCleaner
    I always use manual standalone installers (and keep a couple backup versions)
    itunes 10.5 may affect iTunes media playlists, not sure, depends on what you have.
    A search of these forums will show some threads.
    I'd clean up vista, you need SP2 or later, and specific error message?
    I wonder as you arenot the first with a dell if maybe the OS or included software.
    Security programs like Norton and older versions of Kaspersky have been implicated.
    Also settings in IE that affect pop-ups and plug-ins.

    Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
    In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
    ... and click "Next".

  • TS3299 iTunes was not properly installed.  If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes

    I've installed iTunes 10.6 on my Windows 7 machine.  Everytime I start it I get this message:  iTunes was not properly installed.  If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes.
    Reinstalling iTunes made no difference.
    So I found this article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3299  and updated the registry like it said and it still didn't work but it also had the effect of making my CD drive no longer work for anything, including playing movies.   Before following those instructions I could read and write cds using Windows Media player.  Fortunately, I had backed up my registry leaf and restored it.
    So I've been trying to figure out how to burn a cd from iTunes for close to two months now with no luck.  Does anybody know how to get rid of the above error message?
    Thank you!

  • I need to reinstall iTunes after uninstalling it on a power book g4 with os 10.4.11

    I need to reinstall iTunes 9 after uninstalling it on a power book g4 with os 10.4. The iTunes version 9.2.1 cannot run on my apple, I already tried.

    You should update your system to 10.4.11 if you haven't done so (your title says one thing and your signature another)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL170
    - then you will be able to run iTunes 9.2.1 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1056 - which should definitely run on 10.4.11 G4. It might be a good idea to run that updater anyway. Removing the built-in programs isn't a good idea and can sometimes upset your System. In extremis you may even need to reinstall from your original discs and then run the combo updater.

  • Need to Reinstall iTunes every day

    I buy a lot of TV episodes on iTunes. However, every time I try to play one, if it's the first time I've played an episode that day (I shut down at night), the video screen pauses for a moment, turns green, and then displays an error stating that the application needs to close. I need to completely uninstall, and reinstall iTunes to get it to work. But then I turn off my computer for the night, and the next day it's the same thing. Needless to say, I'm getting tired of it.
    I have re-downloaded the installer, and I have disabled anti-virus software, neither of which did any good. No other programs have any problems whatsoever, so it's not hardware related.
    Has anyone encountered a problem like this in the past? Does anyone know what could be causing it?
    I'm using Windows Vista x64. (I've tried both the 32- and 64-bit versions of iTunes.)

    I never had problems with iTunes before installing the Windows Explorer 8.
    Afterwards, several problems have appeared, and as far as iTunes is concerned I need to reinstall iTunes every times my computer is newly booted up.
    I think Explorer 8 is the culpritt.
    Did anyone solve this problem ?

  • Need to reinstall Itunes to import from CD??

    After installing latest v ITunes it looks to install ok. However when launching I get shown in order to import from CD I need to reinstall ITunes. I have tried several times, tried the hints on the Apple website but none of them work....
    Any ideas it's now driving me nuts???

    As you've found out, since you've got a Canadian credit card you need to be in Canada and use the Canadian iTunes store.
    iTunes itself is global, it's the country that you've got selected on the bottom of the store page that is the problem - click on the USA flag at the bottom and then chose Canada instead.

    Do I used the disk that came with my ipod or DL from the site.. which is a later version.
    Download from the site.
    how do I get my musci from the my music folder back into itunes?
    If it's still in its original location, just reinstall iTunes. Otherwise, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and point it to the library, or drag the music folder into the open iTunes window.
