Installed itunes won't run-invalid win32 program

I just got a 16G nano. I have never used an iPod before. I have installed itunes twice (uninstalling it once). I requested download from apple/itunes page. It installed to my desktop, but i cannot use it. I get the error message above-not valid win32 program. I know I did not hit the 64-bit version. According to the specs I have enough (barely) computer to get this installed. I have a dialup ISP. This is really frustrating. Can you please help????

Have you had a look at this troubleshooting page? iTunes: Windows reports that iTunesSetup.exe is not a "valid Win32 application"

  • ITunes won't run - invisible window where iTunes should be, but it never launches.

    I'm running Windows Vista 32 (I know, I should upgrade) and over the last few weeks, I noticed that my podcast wasn't downloading new eps.   Now, iTunes won't run at all.
    I've done a full scan of the PC and there are no viruses found.   I'm using Kaspersky.
    I've un-installed all Apple apps and rebooted before trying to reload iTunes and it never runs.
    Anyone have any idea what might be preventing iTunes from running?
    I have a Windows 7 PC on the other desk, connected through the same switch and Cable Modem and iTunes is running fine on it, so it's not network / internet related, as far as I can tell.
    Thank you,
    J

    Let's just run through the standard procedures for that one again, just to be sure.
    first, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. if it goes, good. if it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to itunes.
    next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. Then use it to clear any existing itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information from the PC. (Launch CleanUp, find any iTunes and/or QuickTime entries in the list of programs in CleanUp, and remove those entries.)
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    next, use the the following document as a guide for manual removal of leftover itunes and quicktime program files:
    Removing iTunes and QuickTime for Windows
    now try another itunes install. does it go through properly this time?
    (If any step of this procedure failed to work, explain to us as best you can what the problem was.)

    Pagemaker is ancient, obsolete and unsupported. It was discontinued over 10 years ago. (Though why it is still sold is a mystery.)
    If you want to run PageMaker, your best bet is to use a Win2K or WinXP PC.
    Otherwise move to Indesign or look at Serif's PagePlus or Scribus.

  • Itunes won't run after download

    itunes won't run after download. simply asks to acknowledge agreement which I did. help

    You appear to be able to backup your contacts without iTunes.  Google "backup iphone contacts without itunes".
    The way to avoid having to get a tech person in is to get past the idea that your problem (which you still haven't defined) is "beyond my ability to fix".  ;-)

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.

    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • When trying to install iTunes I get an error saying "a program needed to install itunes cannot be run".  Any ideas what that program is?

    My computer would not let me update my version of itunes so I was advised to uninstall and start fresh.  I still get the same error..."a program needed to complete the installation cannot run".  Can any one tell me what program they are referring to or if anyone has a fix for this?

  • ITunes 7 is installed but won't run

    I recently installed iTunes onto my computer and it opened, but I wasn't able to connect to the music store. A friend suggested uninstalling, performing a system restore to an earlier date and try again. Well now iTunes installs, but it won't run. HELP!

    Hi Everyone.
    This is a real disapointment from apple to us!
    At this moment all we know that this is a BIGGER BUG ISSUE on the V7 upgrade.
    I can't figure out how the apple guys give us an update that ***** in the main pourpouse of it ...LISTEN MUSIC!!!
    I recommend that you uninstall the itunes as the quicktime, then reinstall to the V6.5 version and I hope that you have an iTunes Library.itl file backup because as a very GOOD ENDING the V7 give a new structure to this important file and will not be read again for previous itunes versions.
    You can find the iTunes Library.itl at \My Documents\My Music\iTunes if you have a previous version to replace it.
    By now, I hope that apple give us another new V.7 version fixing this bug among others and the testers can do their job as they receive their checks.
    This is a very "punchself" for Jobs and Apple team then their last days announcements.
    Good luck to all!!

  • Itunes won't run - not valid win32 application??? please help

    Please can anyone help. I have a new ipod nano which requires you to download itunes 7.02 from the web rather than with a setup CD.
    When I try to run it I get the error message that it is not a valid win32 application. Not very techy so can't even begin to work out what to do...please help

    I had exactly the same problem, however I've now managed to install itunes. After following all the tips and hints about removing quicktime and earlier version of itunes
    I went onto the download page for itunes 7.2 and chose to save the setup to my desktop. after a short time the download said it was completed and when i tried to open it it came up with th error " not a valid win32 application". I clicked "ok" on the warning message and immediately chose to download itunes again, I again chose to save it to my desktop but changed the name of the download to "itunes setup1". Again after a short time the download completed and again gave the error " not a valid win32 application" when i tried to intall it. I followed the above step several times again but each time changed the save setup name, so it went itunes setup2, itunes setup3, and eventually on the fourth attempt the download took around 30 mins for the full 35.1mb download and this time the icon for the download on my desktop instead of being an empty white box was infact a box with a music note and cd, and I'm glad to say after messing about for 4 hours downloaded and my new ipod shuffle is now complete with 250 songs on. I hope this helps.

  • Itunes won't run, says "invalid drive g:\"

    There are two users on my PC. After upgrading to itunes 7 only the user that is the administrator can run itunes. When I log in as the other user and click on itunes, it begins to install then stops and says "invalid drive g:\" What can I do to resolve this?

    Are you trying to RUN it in the other account or INSTALL it. Big difference. You should only have to install iTunes ONCE for the entire computer and all user accounts can use it.
    However only one user account at a time can be running iTunes in Windows (Mac users can have multiple users all running iTunes at the same time). So you installed it on the Admin account. Now shut down iTunes. Open the other account and simply run iTunes (if that isn't what you did before).

    iTunes hasn't even opened before this message pops up. Have tried re-installing iTunes.
    Any ideas? Really wanna get using my new nano!

    Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs

    Restart the PC
    Try to launch iTunes

  • Installed Itunes 9.1 - running , but will not open...

    I installed the iTunes 9.1 on my Win VISTA laptop. After the install, can no longer open Itunes. I click on the Itunes icon and nothing happens, even thought it's running. Might this have to do with Bonjour? I disabled it through the Control Panel/Administration/Services - but it still won't run.

    I have three computers that are practicably clones of each other and the new itunes update failed on two of them but one worrked fine. Here is fix that worked for me. This fix was suggested by another member but I cannot recall or find his post. My system is WinXP sp3 with all the latest patches.
    1. Download AirPort Utility 5.5.1 for Windows http://support.apple.com/downloads/
    2. Open task Manager and stop the mdnsresponder process. The corrupted mdnsresponder will be using 50% of your cpu.
    3. Open control panel / add remove programs. Find the bonjour app and click on it.
    4. Note the corrupted version of bonjour 2.0.0.34 by clicking on the support link.
    5. Uninstall bonjour
    6. Restart Windows.
    7. Install the AirPort Utility. This will install a good working version of mdnsresponder. Restart windows again.
    8. Upon restart you will see a new the airport icon in your task tray. You can also find mdnsresponder.exe running under process in task manger with little or no cpu usage. Your bonjour app under add remove panel will now be version 1.0.106

  • ITunes won't run on Windows 7: Quicktime not found. .. But Quicktime works!

    Installed latest version of iTunes 10 on a Windows 7 64-bit PC. Occasionally iTunes runs, but usually it gives the error: "Quicktime was not found. Quicktime is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again".
    I have done this about 3 times, making sure to uninstall everything apple (itunes, quicktime, bonjour, etc.) Once I even followed a recommendation to delete all application data and reinstall. Rebooting, etc.
    Quicktime runs absolutely fine.
    I even tried repairing quicktime, installing quicktime by itself after iTunes was installed. No luck. Any ideas???

    I've downloaded the iTunes installation file and tried to install or repair 3 times but keep getting a message that a required component is not installed (-45075).
    Just in case the component being referenced is not part of iTunes but is rather part of one of the other related programs, it might be worth trying a complete uninstall/reinstall of iTunes and related componentry, as per the following troubleshooting document:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
