I Tunes will not install on my Win8 laptop. is there a fix?

Im having alot of trouble getting ITunes to install on my Win8 Dell inspiron. The install gets right to the end and then fails.

If there is it probably requires doing so in compatibility mode. Try searching Google to see if anyone has looked into this for Windows 8 or even an earlier version since it likely a question for earlier Windows versions as well.

Voiceover kit will not install 1603 error win8

Voiceoverkit will not install. Error code 1603. Running Win8. iTunes 11.0.5.5

Hello tzachman,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you are getting an error message when trying to get the Voiceover kit to install.
I found an article that seems to address this error code specifically named iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1603
Error 1603
Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. Also, discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations. If you do not want to remove the IPSW in the original user, try restoring in a new administrator user. If the issue remains, Eliminate third-party security software conflicts
Here is the troubleshooting from the 1604 section that it references:
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
Take care,
Sterling

I tunes will not install due to quicktime

hello, I have an older pc and everytime I go to install Itunes, it goes through the whole process and at the very end says it cannot install because quicktime is not installed correctly and gives me some error message. I have never had itunes on this pc because of that. Is there a download that just has itunes and not the stupid quicktime which I don't give a crap about anyway?
Thanks
Cliff ([email protected])

You need the QuickTime. It provides all the audio and video playback capabilities for iTunes. (Conceptually, you don't go too far wrong thinking of iTunes as a gigantic QuickTime plugin.)
it goes through the whole process and at the very end says it cannot install because quicktime is not installed correctly and gives me some error message.
What's the precise text of that error message, Cliff? That would give us the best possible heads up on what is actually going wrong with the install.

Itunes will not install correctly on my laptop, how do i solve this problem?

When I try to download iTunes on to my laptop I end up with the following message:
iTunes has not installed correctly. Please reinstall the programme.
Error 7 usually appears as well.
I need help!

A complete uninstall/reinstall of iTunes and related software components is worth a try (7s can indicate trouble with other software components like Apple Application Support). See the following documents for instructions:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
... But if no joy there, let's check to see if there's a .NET issue underlying this:

Hi,
You can download the latest official Firefox here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
You may also have to install [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7u9-downloads-1859586.html Java] (choose either Windows x86 Offline or Windows x86 Online), and [http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ Flash] (choose the Firefox version and also deselect extras).
For the Firefox metro version, please see [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Windows_8_Integration#Elm_Nightly_Builds this]. You can install and use it along with the other version.

HT204406 i purchased music from itunes and now itunes will not open on this mac. is there a fix for this?

i purchased music from itunes and now itunes will not open. how do i get it back??

Hmmm. There's a couple of things that might be going on with that one.
Let's try an uninstall and reinstall of QuickTime first.
If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel. Select "QuickTime", click "Change" and then click "Remove".
If you're using & or Vista, head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select QuickTime, and then click "Uninstall".
You can get QuickTime back either via Apple Software Update (in your Start menu go "All Programs > Apple Software Update" ... QuickTime should appear in the "New Programs" section), or by downloading a QuickTimeInstaller.exe from the following location:

Does your iTunes launch properly now?

I-tunes will not install on 64bit Windows 7

I've spend days literally trying to get I-tunes installed on my HP Pavilion dm4 running Windows 7 Professional. Original problem was the installer wanted to install on the F drive which I don't have. I spent 3 hours with Apple support and 2 more hours with HP support, with no luck. I found a post by b noir dated June 1 about renaming a drive to the one it wants to install. That worked, but now I get a message during the install "There is a problem with this window installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run.. contact your support personnel" I found another post that said to right click the program and run as administrator... No luck. This seems to be an issue since June, maybe I've just missed a post on how to fix... Please help.. I'm a dye-hard fan of i-tunes and my Iphone. (FYI-it's a new notebook and I just went back to the old one to update my phone but it's a dying machine I need to toss out.)

A bit off-topic, but that Admin View looks difficult to use. I use this one instead
Rats. THAT stupid message, "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package." There used to be a handy utility from microsoft to get rid of those errors. Microsoft has pulled it, though. Windows Installer Cleanup Utility. If you can find a valid copy, you'd have this fixed in minutes. But I digress.
The problem is certainly with Apple Software Update. Perhaps I misunderstood, I didn't think you were updating from within itunes? I thought you said you DL'd the iTunesSetup64.exe, right?
In Windows Explorer, do you see that file mentioned in the error message?
C:\Program Files (x86)\Apple Software Update\SoftwareUpdate.exe
Can you uninstall Apple Software Update from Control Panel > Programs & Features?

I tunes will not install on windows 7 64 bit

I have upgrade to window 7 and I am trying to download I tunes. I get a message that My Itunes was not modifying. Errors while attempting the down load. I have no older versions of I tunes installed.
Thans for your help.
Jim

Please post the exact wording of any error messages that are occurring so that others can offer relevant assistance.

I-tunes will not install. even after i used all of the help offers.

Okay so, My computer has JUST recovered from a huge virus that decided to completely demolish everything but the computer was still able to be fixed. So i reinstalled windows and most of my drivers. Now i am trying to install I-tunes and it keeps giving me the message: An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,publickeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type="win32",Version=8.0. 50727.762",processorArchitecture="x86"'.Please refer to Help and Support For more information. HRESULT: 0x80070424.
so if anyone has ANY idea what that means i would love for you to tell me cause its starting to anger me tremendously.

.Please refer to Help and Support For more information. HRESULT: 0x80070424.
Not the most common of iTunes installation error messages. That one often seems to be a side effect of the same problem that causes error 8007000b when you try to install Windows Vista updates.
To doublecheck, try getting some Windows Updates. If they error out with an 8007000b, try the following Microsoft troubleshooting document:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Windows-Update-error-8007000b
If that fixes your 8007000b, does your iTunes installation also go through properly afterwards?

Hello
I just bought an Ipod as what tryingto get itunes to load for 5 hours last Friday night and another 4 hours on Saturday til my head exploaded
I then installed an older version of itunes and it worked but the new version didn't
In the end I re-installed XP home as a "repair" not clean install so that I wouldn't loose any work on my PC and within 40 minutes or so whatever was missing from my PC was installed and itunes 6 went on with no problem
My advise is don't go round the houses like I did, just "repair" your XP installation and it's done
Well, it did for me at least
Hope this helps

I purchased Version 2.0 as an upgrade download, but it will not install on a MacBook. Is there some trick. I have the multimedia version or so I thought.
Thank you,

You can't install the App Store version of Mavericks because your model needs a special version. If you ever need to reinstall it, boot into Recovery.
