I-tunes installation error message- trying to put in wrong drive

I was getting the AVG trojan horse warnings so I quickly deleted i-tunes, assuming (mistakenly, apparently) that AVG had detected a virus.
I downloaded i-tunes and attempted to re-install, but very early in the process get the message that "drive d is not available"-- which is true, since that drive is my DVD drive, and I usually install programs on drive C with the rest of the system (Windows Vista Ultimate). I realize this might be more of a windows problem than an i-tunes problems, but the windows people have no ideas and the result is the same-- I am without i-tunes. Is there a way to get the installation to take place on one drive or another? I am not being asked for the place of installation, at least not this early in the installation process (very early-- the first response that pops up after starting to install). I tried putting the installation program in drive C (or verified it was already there, more accurately). I right-click the installation file and check properties but cannot find anyplace to change the installation settings.
Any ideas? Thanks all,
JJ

Try putting a disk in your DVD drive. That might make D: available and get past that silly error message.

    I am trying to move Acrobat XI to a new computer. (Mavericks to Mavericks) Toward to end of the install when 'scripts' a being installed I get an 'Installation error" message. No number or reason just a message to contact the software manufacturer.

    I am using a copy of a previous download of Acrobat XI, clicking the .dmg and then on the install package.
    Originally, the Acrobat software was brought into the new computer by the Migration Assistant.
    Does the install assistant need to be in the mix somewhere?

    I am not sure about this particular error number. Looking it up in Windows Installer error messages, it says file in use, restart may be required. But I am not certain that it is a Windows installer error message.
    It certainly is worth trying a restart.
    I would also clear your temporary Internet files and re-download iTunes.
    Also clear your temporary directory as that seems to be where the error occurred.
    This article on trouble installing iTunes includes instructions for clearing the temp folder (towards the end of the page) and also other things to try.

  • I am unable to install iTunes due to Windows Installer error message on Vista

    I needed to update my iTunes since I purchased the iPad2.  My Windows Vista machine will not allow me to update the program due to a "Windows Installer" error message.  I first attempted to update, then I uninstalled and am unable to reinstall the software."There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run..."

    I finally got the program to install/run.  I downloaded a third copy and saved it again on the desktop.  I selected "Run as Administrator" instead of "Run"  It must have been the 10th plus time I tried to install, but this time it completed.  I don't know if the "Run as Administrator" was the key since it is Vista, or if I just got lucky. Either way I am relieved.

  • Error message trying to load iTunes

    I started getting this error message trying to load iTunes a few days ago:
    "error writing to file: C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\es.lproj\iPhone Help.chm. Verify that you have access to that directory."
    Anyone know how to fix this?

    Sorry about the delay. (Bad cold and some connection problems too.)
    Hmmm. The first version of it is probably being thrown by the iTunes Setup Assistant (which involves an installer routine).
    The second set of circumstances is a bit more familiar (especially if it's accompanied by a 2330 error message number).
    Often it's file damage or (disk damage near a file) that causes those messages. So let's try running a Chkdsk over the C drive:
    How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, does it stop giving you that message when you try to launch or upgrade?

  • Error message trying to synchronise audio and midi sample rate 42463

    I have a Rode Podcaster mic that is terrific. It has been working fine in GB. suddenly I am getting this when I try to record my podcast:
    'Error message trying to synchronise audio and midi sample rate 42463 recognised. Check conflict between Garageband and external device'
    Has anyone experienced this before? How do I resolve it? I'm still using my Version 6.0.5.
    Apple, is this a way of forcing me to upgrade to V10?

    Just click the icon on each track that stops it acting as a live input. It looks like a sound wave. Only have them clicked orange when using the track to record! I don't know if that will solve your problem!

    My MB Pro is no longer syncing my iPad in iTunes. It did in the beginning, however I had to change my MB Pro password. Now I get a permissions error message trying to sync: "error storing your authorization information on this computer." Can you help?

    First I would just try deleting the SCInfo folder, restart your computer, open itunes and see if you are still getting the error, at that point if you are it is a permissions error with the computer specificaly and not in itunes.

  • Keep getting "general installation error" message Mac OSX 10.8.5/Safari 6.0.5

    keep getting "general installation error" message Mac OSX 10.8.5/Safari 6.0.5 Followed all the instructions for uninstalling and clean installing. Just wont install

    Make sure you have it set to "show hidden files"
    Check BOTH places and you have to restart Finder
    Press "Quit This" and then go to the Finder Dock icon and right click it
    Select "Open"
    Open TIme Machine
    Go back to September 28 or earlier.
    You'll see the mach_kernel file in the Mac HD directory
    (I can't show it in the TM because screenshots don't work while it's open but here it is in my MAc HD)
    Right click it and select "Restore to"
    Then, when it goes back to Finder, choose the Mac HD directory and click OK.
    It will place the mach_kernel back where it was and you can install software again
    DON'T FORGET to go back and hide your files (and restart Finder) again, or you'll have a mess with the clutter of hidden files everywhere.

  • Deskjet 6940 - multiple black cartridge 96 installation error messages

    I have a new Deskjet 6940.  I installed the black 96 cartridge.  Printer keeps saying it is not installed correctly.  I cleaned the cartridge, ran the jet/bubble test.  Finally I replaced the cartridge, same installation error message.  I do not get the error message for the color 97 cartridge. Is this problem common to the 6940?  Not sure what my options are.  Thanks

    have the same problem. We installed cartiridge and did a test page by holding power and cancel buttons at same time. Nothing is showing up for the black cartridge. Maybe cleaning something would help, but I can't find any information on how to access the information using Vista.
