Installing itunes 10 on windows vista home premium

I know this may have been covered here but i need to know how to change the permissions on the admin account on my computer so i can install system services like bonjour. Ive tried to install itunes 10 multiple times and it keeps coming up with "the service failed to start. verify you have sufficient priveleges to install system services." I thought i did being logged in on as admin....
btw im not tech head so explanations keep them simple!
this is giving me so much headache!!! i just want to upgrade the itunes it shouldnt be this hard..

Ive tried to install itunes 10 multiple times and it keeps coming up with "the service failed to start. verify you have sufficient priveleges to install system services."
We can sometimes get past that one by disabling the BonJour Service prior to an iTunes install.
In your Start Menu, right-click "Computer" and select "Manage".
Expand "Services & Applications"
Open "Services". Maximise the window to better see what's going on.
Right-click on the BonJour Service and select "Properties".
In the "General" Tab, change the Startup type to "Disabled" and click OK.
Restart the PC (very important).
Now try another iTunes install. Does it go through any better this time?

  • Itunes wont install on my windows vista home premium 32-bit computer

    on my windows vista home premium dell inpsiron 32-bit computer when it installes at the end it says rolling back action

    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • I can't synchronize my iPod's with my iTunes software (Windows Vista Home Premium) due to problems with the access authorization / rights for this operation

    Hi there,
    I'd like to ask you something:
    I'm trying to synchronize all my iPod's (I have as many as 4 iPods: 2 iPod touch a 8 GB each and 2 iPod classic a 160 GB each) with my iTunes software (Version 11.3.1 which is installed on a Windows PC (Windows Vista Home Premium)). Unfortunately, the iTunes software refuses to run the command "synchronize with the iPod connected" regarding each and every iPod I have. iTunes just declares:
    Synchronizing is impossible because I wouldn't hold the access authorization / rights for this operation.
    I uploaded the songs at issue to my iTunes folder from CD's (all songs are in AAC format now).
    What is this access authorization, why was something like that invented and what can I do to get it?
    How do I have to proceed in detail?
    What would it cost?
    I am brand new here and have never ever made a post in any support community anywhere in the world in my life. Well, and I am not excessively knowledgeable about the particular computer or mac language but I know the very basics or can find out about them.
    Anyways - can you help me please?
    If you can't help me, who can do so?
    It would be nice if you could answer me as soon as possible!
    Thank you guys

    Yes, others have experienced the problem, a simple search of the forums would have revealed that and the simple solution.
    Termporarily disable any security software on the computer.

  • Can't use iTunes with Windows Vista Home Premium

    I have deleted and reinstalled so many times, so i tried the compatibility settings and set it to work for Windows XP(Service Pack 2) with 256 colours. It works, but it messes up all my colours.
    Help, please.
    (My brother got iTunes working on his Windows Vista Home Premium laptop, but it won't work for the desktop computer.)

    i think the file name quicktime.msi is causing the problem
    also forgot to add that installation stops when the status turns to computing space requirements

  • Conflicts between Itunes and Windows Vista Home Premium Edition

    I am looking to purchase a new pc with Windows Vista. What are some possible problems I could have with Itunes?

    I have a new Windows Vista Home premium laptop and am NOT able to use the latest version of iTunes. Hopefully by the time you get your new computer, Apple will have taken the time to fix the garbage program that they are passing off as the latest version of iTunes.

  • Installation of itunes in windows vista home premium

    I have tried several times in vain to download the latest version of i Tunes ( 7.6) on my computer. The installation apparently goes through properly but when i try to open itunes I recieve an itunes has stopped working dialogue box and the descripton generally is that an data execution program has prevented itunes from opening. I have tried clearing old downloads and reloading, I have tried disabeling conflicting programs ( not sure which ones will be conflicting) I have tried allowing itunes and quick time through the sytem performance file etc. I am frustrated and ready to throw my nano away. thanks for any help

    I didn't realize Vista Home Premium wasn't supported, so I went ahead and installed Oracle 10g R2 standard edition and then personal edition on 64-bit Vista Home Premium. The only problem I've had is that the DB Console doesn't work, which is why I came to this forum and thread. All I get is a blank page with a few chicken scratches, but everything else has been working so far. I've had to revert to command line SQL Plus, and I just imported a couple million rows from an export done on a Solaris server, so go figure. Obviously I'm not using it for a production database, but for my purposes so far it's done OK.

  • Itunes and Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit

    I just purchased a HP TouchSmart with Vista Home Premium 64bit system.I have itunes loaded but after about 10 min. after i connect my ipod to it it locks up the computer completely. I have tried itunes on 2 identical computers and got the same results.
    I also did a restore on the ipod and it still does the same thing. Any help will be appreciated.bobwire

    Just an update, though it's more of a (non) update.
    I'm not sure how but I managed to get it working.
    After doing the things mentioned above, I tried a system restore but that didn't work and seemed to throw more error messages my way. Then I ran AppleSoftewareUpdater.exe and it gave me red X errors with no details, I assumed the install failed completely.
    Following this, I manually downloaded and tried to install the latest version again but it said iTunes was already installed. At this point I'm far past annoyed.
    So, I click on iTunes and now everything works.
    I wish I knew what actually fixed the problem so others could benefit if they're experiencing the same thing....hence why I say, (non)-update.  
    Anyways,
    Take care Everyone

  • ISO: solution for these itunes vs windows vista home premium problems?

    1.Every time I start itunes, it tells me that there are registry entries missing for burning a disk and something else that escapes my immediate memory. However, it suggests reinstalling itunes and I've done that many times without the problem going away.
    2. I use a sony laptop with vista and the latest itunes. The itunes task bar is not showing up.
    3. When I go to those apple.com/itunes ads for free music, movie trailers, etc and then the itunes store redirector pops up, it always tells me that it can't find itunes, even when it is running.
    4. Recently, itunes began to display the phrase "Disc Recording not found..."

  • Installing Flash Player - Windows Vista Home Premium - stalled at 50%

    I would like to get help as I have been trying to install Adobe Flash Player for months, each time a video I select requires it and
    the system takes me to the prompts to install, it gets 50% installed and then it says it can't continue because Internet Explorer is open.
    Therre are no windows opened, and I have the recommended Scripting enabled in Internet Options (troubleshooting tip) but
    I still can't get past this point and its frustrating.
    David Kerr

    Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by right clicking one (or both) of the following links and selecting "Save target as"(IE) or "Save link as"(other browsers).
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    Save the file(s) to your downloads folder.
    Reboot.
    Before running anything else, open the downloads folder and run the installer(s).

  • Since the latest update of Firefox was installed on my Windows Vista Home Premium system it appears to be crashing and sometimes plays up by not opening requested sites in new windows, tabs etc. Should I uninstall and reload Firefox??

    Also when closing tabs and windows the screen appears to momentarily go a blue color. This same blue color can also be seen when Firefox appears to crash or stall. If you try to open a new tab or a new window there appears to be some hesitation before the new window opens and sometimes the new window or tab simply refuses to open-you then have to shut down Firefox and restart to improve this.

    Thanks Alan I tried disabling several items so far and the situation has improved but still not as stable as I would like. Systematic approach is the key here so I'll continue with a process of elimination.
