Installing iTunes 7.6 in Vista

I am new to iPod and have been trying to load iTunes 7.6 since the weekend. It will not load any way I try on my machine with x86 vista!!
Initially I got message saying Quicktime version out of date - quite clever seeing 7.6 was installing it!
I have ensured I have the 32 bit version of iTunes, and I have even downloaded Quicktime seperately and loaded after 7.6.
Every time i get message saying Itunes has stopped working, and now a message saying Vista DEP is stopping the program. Having freed up the DEP against iTunes and iTunes Helper - the result is still the same.
Can anybody help - my daughter is desperate to take her new Nano on holiday on Saturday - and we're nowhere near getting any music on this dammed piece of kit!
Many thanks

Vista has funny permissions, and an account named "Trusted Installer" installs everything, but can't be accessed from the users on the Control Panel.
I'd suggest turning off UAC....from what I've read on the web...don't have Vista yet, meself.

  • I cannot install itunes on my windows vista

    I try to install itunes on my windows vista, it gives me a error

    "iTunesSetup.exe não é um aplicativo Win32 válido"
    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    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?

  • CAN'T INSTALL ITUNES 9 ON WINDOWS VISTA 64-BIT OS

    Hey guys!
    I'm having a reaaaallly hard time installing iTunes on my Windows Vista 64-bit OS. Everytime I think it's about to finish installing, it shows me this message:
    What does it mean?? Can someone PLEASE help me, I haven't had music on my iPhone for 4 weeks now!

    Curses ... you did everything right by providing the screenshot, thanks. But we really need to see the error message number that shows up after the "HRESULT" bit for one of those, and it's deciding not show us that.
    Okay ... people who get these error messages for iTunes installs typically are also getting Windows updates failures too. So we'll try to work out what the iTunes/Updates issue is by checking your Update history.
    Go into your Windows Update and click "Update History". Have updates been failing for you recently? If so, doubleclick on each failure to bring up a small window showing some info about the failure.
    What error message codes are you getting for the Windows Updates failures? (For example, 0x8007000B, or something else?)

    Apple offer this advice which I guess is not much help to you as you have Norton:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1609?viewlocale=en_US
    I wonder if it is worth looking in the your firewall configuration>>Programs and deleting any entry for Bonjour - in the hope that you will be prompted to allow it or not when you do the install, or maybe adding it back with permit all.
    But someone came up with another possible solution at the end of this thread:

  • Windows installer won't install iTunes 10.5 Windows Vista 64

    Can't install iTunes 10.5 on my operating system. I'm running windows vista home premium 64.
      Every time I try, a window installer alert pops up. It says; This installation package could not be,
    opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor
    To verify that this is a valid windows installer package. I recently had to reinstall my operating system
    Using my recovery discs. I got all my updates including service pack 2, but I noticed some updates did not install.
    Could that be the issue ? Can anyone help ? Thanks Sam

    Repair your Apple Software Update:
    Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install

  • Problems Installing iTunes 10 with Windows Vista

    I am running Windows Vista (32 bit) and have installed iTunes 10. Any time I try to launch iTunes I receive the following message: "iTunes needs to be repaired to work with Vista. Use the 'Programs and Features' control panel to repair iTunes."
    The bigger problem is when I open the Programs and Features control panel, iTunes is not listed as a program. All of the other iTunes components are listed(Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Software Update, Bonjour). However, I can see iTunes (version 10) in the C:>Programs Files>iTunes folder, just not in the control panel.
    I was going to attempt to uninstall and reinstall as numerous posts have suggested, however, since the program does not appear in the control panel, I have not been able to uninstall it.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Try using b noir's directions from this thread to get rid of itunes

  • Why can't I install iTunes 10.5 on Vista?? Code 80073712

    Dear iTunes Team,
    yesterday, I tried to connect my iPhone 4 with iTunes, but it didn't work...so I thought I should update iTunes to 10.5 finally for making it work again.
    And suddenly after a few minutes of waiting during the installation an error occures many other iTunes-User also have:
    "During the installation of assembling "Miscrosoft.VC80.CRT,publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type"win32,version="8.0. 50727.762",processorAr chitecture="x86"" an error occures. For more information, see Help and Support."
    I think it concerns with some Windows Updates, I couldn't install without getting error code 80073712.
    I tried to install and deinstall iTunes 10.5 a few times..but it never works
    and I did everything to get rid of this problem..
    -CCleaner (cleaning registery)
    -disabling firewall/defender/anti-virus software
    -disabling windows updates with "cmd."
    -virus check
    . etc
    AND it doesn't work!
    Please Apple, solve these problems as soon as you can! I'm not the only one who's affected..
    Thanks a lot.
    PS: I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium, SP2

    It seems to be an update issue under Vista. Therefore I would try to klick right the Setup.exe-File and then install iTunes with XP-ServicePack3-Compatibility (and as Administrator).

  • CAN'T INSTALL ITUNES ON MY WINDOWS VISTA 64-BIT SYSTEM

    Hey guys,
    I'm having a hard time installing Itunes on my 64-bit Windows Vista system. Everytime I think it's about to finish installing, it shows this message.
    Someone, please help me! I haven't had music on my iPhone for 4 weeks now!

    Not Windows RT then .  When you say "I've tried both" do you mean the 32- and 64-bit installers for Windows?  In the first instance you should go to http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ - this should detect the version of Windows you are running and offer the correct installer.  It'll look like this:
    Click on Download Now - this will download the correct installer for you to run and install iTunes.
    There is, however, some anecdotal evidence that the scripts on the Apple site that are supposed to detect the version of Windows you are running may fail for some users - jumping straight to the "Thank you for downloading ..." page with the installer not having been downloaded.  As an alternative, you can go directly to the relevant downloads:
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe
    of which you'll need the second one.  See turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for more details if you're still having problems with installation; you may also need to consult HP's helpdesk as the error message you report may be symptomatic of a Windows issue, not an iTunes one.

  • Installing itunes 8.1 on vista home premium - please help!

    This is my first ever post in a forum because i can usually work it out from other peoples questions... but i'm at the end of my tether with this:
    I've just bought a new Dell inspiron 1545, o.s windows vista home premium.
    I'm trying to install itunes 8.1 but am getting the following problem...
    I can get to the part where it starts installing, and then it gets to a certain point and just... stops.
    It's not freezing or even giving me an error message, it just stops!
    So i leave it to see if it will start again, and it eventually times out!
    You can understand how frustrating this is because there is no rhyme or reason to WHEN it stops (sometimes 20% complete, sometimes 96% completes - and sometimes it never even starts).
    I've read up on many different forums (i spent 5 hours last night on this) and it seems lots of people are having problem with itunes and vista, but none of the threads contain this actual problem.
    i've tried a few suggestions: delete all history and cookies e.t.c / try opening a different browser before going to the apple site / click 'save' instead of 'run' and alter the name its saved under, but none of the above has worked.
    So basically, if anyone can help, I would dearly appreciate it... it's quite possibly driving me insane.
    Many thanks.

    I also have the Mcaffe security centre so on the face of it we have very similar situations and I had not problems.
    You asked what I meant about saving the installer on your PC.
    When you go to the iTunes download page:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    And click on download, you should be offered the choice of running the installer or saving it. You need to click on save and then choose a folder on you PC where you want it saved. But I think you already did that.
    After the installer file - iTunessetup.exe - is save on your computer, you double click on it to run it.
    It's very odd that the installer fails at different stages. usually when the installation fails, it is at a specific stage and usually generates an error message.
    I am afraid I am mystified. Have you had any other problems with your PC which might suggest a general problem not specific to iTunes?
    The only other suggestion I have is to download a fresh copy of the installer - in case it got corrupted. You could also try using "run as administrator" to run the installer. It should be an option if you right click on the installer file.
    The other thing it might be worth trying is to install it from another account, but you would need to create another administrator account if you don't a;ready have one. Or if you have another account that is not an admin account, you can temporarily promote it from the control panel>>User accounts.

  • Can't install iTunes or QuickTime on Vista.  Vista is killing me. HALP!

    I read through all the [million] other posts with Vista problems but mine is a bit different.
    Its a brand new Dell computer with 32bit Vista Home Premium which I have learned is a bad idea but now I'm stuck with it and without my music. I hear some people don't have problems with ITunes and Vista at all so I still have hope.
    When I try to install iTunes 8 plus QuickTime this is the error:
    "the installation of QuickTime did not complete successfully. iTunes requires QuickTime."
    When I try to install QuickTime on its own this is the error:
    "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2755."
    Thanks for any info. Peace in the new year to all!

    I am having this same problem. Has anyone found a solution?

  • Installed iTunes 10.5 on Vista.  iTunes continually launches and won't stay closed.  How can I fix this problem?

    I just installed iTunes 10.5 on my Windows Vista laptop.  Now iTunes launches itself about every 60 seconds on my computer.  I close the application and 60 seconds later it reopens.  Any ideas how to stop this?

    Had the same problem (as have a LOT of others).
    Took the following action which (knock on wood) seems to have solved it!
    Plug in iPhone; when Sync starts, click on "iPhone" under Devices; click on "Summary" page; under Options at the bottom of the page, uncheck "Sync wiyh this iPhone over ..."; click apply; exit after sync is complete......my problem disappeared!
    Note: if the box is already unchecked, try checking it; apply; uncheck; apply
    Good luck!

  • Can't install iTunes on my new Vista-PC

    I bought my Dell Notebook 2 months ago. It's with Vista Home Premium (no upgrade from XP, Vista installed from the beginning) and runs fine so far. But I've got no chance installing iTunes - seems to be simply impossible (it tells something of "VisualBasicScript is not installed" - which is probably not the problem...). Now as I saw in some discussion groups, some think that there's a problem with Vista/McAfee/iTunes. But others say there's none. Now my question:
    - is there anyone whith a similar system who had and solved this annoying problem?
    - or are there any other ideas beside of "wait until Apple publishes a new version of iTunes" (of which probably no one knows when this should happen)?

    I know nothing about Vista but I hope this helps you.

  • HELP I cant install itunes 10.5 on Vista

    My husband is going to kill me...I was trying to update iTunes so I could update my iPad and I kept getting the same error message, "The installer has insufficient priviledges to modify this file: C\programfile\apple software update\softwareupdate.resources\software update.tiff" So  I stupidly uninstalled iTunes and now it won't reinstall - I get the same error message. I don't know what to do! I attempted to uninstall the Apple Software Update program as well but I kept getting error messages telling me I don't have permission...  I'm about ready to panic.... Our computer has Vista running on it...

    Hello Vista People!  It has taken me an entire day to fix the problem that NOT A SINGLE POST clearly answered the issue of "cant install iTunes 10.5" on my vista machine.  Or worse yet, the problem I was getting was a Windows Installer error.  What I discovered was that there was a corrupted Apple Software Update program.  When I did as so many have suggested, and uninstalled all the Apple products, and then reinstalled, and was unable to get a iTunes 10.5 to install.  The key to notice if you have this problem is that when you look in the Control Panel>Programs>Programs and Features, you will notice that Apple Software Update is showing, but there is no "publisher"....there is a file size, about 2.5 mb for me (yours could be different).  And when you right clicked or 'selected' the program in the the "uninstall or change a program" mode in the Control Panel>Programs>Programs and Features you would not get anything to do.  You couldnt uninstall it.  So after uninstalling and reinstalling repeatedly, I noticed that the Apple Software Update simply was not able to be 'changed'.  So, I downloaded from Microsoft "Fixit" the program called:  Microsoftfixit.ProgramInstallUninstall.run.exe  found here:  http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall  I then ran this program and when asked how I wanted it to work, I selected the equivalent of "Let me" make the decisions, (Not the automatic fix) and then selected that I wanted to "Uninstall".  When it finished running, it gave me a list of programs to 'uninstall' and I selected Apple Software Update.  When it completed, I checked the Control Panel>Programs and Apple Software Update was gone.  Once it was gone, I was able to install iTunes 10.5 without a problem, and better yet, I also noticed after the installation, in the Control Panel>Programs Apple Software Update was listed with a Publisher.  Now everything works.  I believe there is some issue with Vista corrupting the Apple Software Update software during the uninstall process and Windows Installer doesn't deal with it correctly.  I hope at least one other person can benefit from this, because NOWHERE did anyone do, suggest or clearly advise on how this was to be done.
