Installing itunes on my pc using windows 7 makes the disc drives disappear

does anyone have a fix for this? I'm using a pc with windows 7, used to be able to uninstall itunes and the drives would reappear, now that doesn't work so I have no disc drives. Have tried everything (my computer friend has, for me) including a new disc drive - same problem. AM ready to buy a new computer, but searches indicate the problem may occur with a new computer as well.

Click here and follow the instructions.

How to download itunes and how to use windows in my iPad?

How to download itunes and how to use windows in my iPad?

The iTunes app comes pre installed on your iPad.
Use Windows? The iPad is an iOS device. Not possible to run Windows on an iPad.

Every time i try to install itunes on my laptop for windows i get the message''key not valid for use in specified state'' any clue? '

every time i try to install itunes on my laptop for windows i get the message''key not valid for use in specified state'' any clue?

For "Key not valid for use in specified state" errors try moving the folder RSA from C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA to say C:\<User>\RSA (just in case there should be a need to restore it) then try installing again. This folder appears to act as a cache and should be rebuilt automatically as required.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Try doing it in a WIndows Safe mode - Restart computer and hit F8 key right after your see BIOS check and choose "Safe mode with networking"
Do the SFC /SCANNOW again.
If that does not work, whilst in safe mode, download Free Malwarebyte software from CNET's Download.com. Install, update virus definition then perform a full scan. Remove if it did find some viruses or trojans. Restart computer.
Back to regular windows, do the SFC /SCANNOW again.
If that doesnot work, check to see if your Hard drive has errors or bad sectors
GO START BUTTON /COMPUTER, right mouse click OS (C:) and choose "Properties"
Choose "Tools" tab and under error checking, click "Check Now".
Make sure "Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors" is checked and click start.
Restart windows will perform the above task to fix errors This may take hours depends on how big is your Hard Drive
Good Luck!!.

How do I install iTunes 10.5.3 on Windows Vista?

I've been trying for some time to install iTunes on my computer for some time now. As I'm sure you're aware, the iPod Touch currently requires 10.5.3 in order to operate. Here are the issues I've been having:
After the I run the Setup and the iTunes Installer starts to run, this message pops up maybe two minutes into the process:
An error occured during the installation of assembly
'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,type="win32".version="8.0.50727.
6195",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9alel8e3b",processo
rArchitecture="x86"'. Please refer to Help and Support
for more information. HRESULT: 0x80070002
I click Okay, and the installation process continues, up until the Status bar reads "Starting Services," at which point:
Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device)
failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges
to start the system services.
Clicking "Retry" yields the same result, clicking "Ignore" skips to the end of the installation process, and clicking "Abort" rolls back the process and restarts at a certain point, until the end of the installation. I get the "Congratulations!" screen, click "Finish" to exit the installer, but when iTunes tries to start up:
Apple Application Support was not found.
Apple Application support is required to run iTunes. Please
uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again.
Error 2 (Windows error 2)
I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes several times. I have restarted the computer after uninstalling and waited to reinstall. Nothing seems to work. All of this is exactly what occurs and quite frankly, it's more trouble than it's worth. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know ASAP.

The forums for members of Apple's developer programs are here:
http://developer.apple.com/devforums/
If you're not doing development yourself, I would advise against installing either iTunes 10.5 or especially iOS 5. Both are beta software and almost certainly have faults and incomplete features. You definitely should not install iOS 5 on any device you depend on for general use.

Having issues installing iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows 7 (64 bit).

Issues installing iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows 7 (64 bit).This install clobbered my previous version of iTunes. Error message is "service Apple Mobile Device failed to start". Cannot start the service manually even though I am the administrator of the machine. There is obviously some conflict that was recently introduced by a Windows update or in the Apple installation. I have tried removing iTunes and the AMDS (the Apple mobile device service) and reinstalling with the same error message.
Thanks for any suggestions you can provide!

Hey there Marylin,
It sounds like you are unable to start iTunes due to this error message even after uninstalling the iTunes application and the Apple Mobile device. I would recommend uninstalling not just those 2 applications but iTunes and ALL its associated applications with the following article:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

I am unable to install Itunes 10.6 on my windows vista 64. What do I need to do to be able to install?

How can I install Itunes 10.6 on my windows Vista 64?

No, but you do at least have to buy Snow Leopard. Whether you can run it depends on what iMac you have:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from download, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $30. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number.
If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:

Unable to install itunes for new computer with windows 8

unable to install itunes for new computer with windows 8
states this app unable to run on this PC

Hello jgrn76,
It sounds like you are getting an error stating that the iTunes installer cannot be run on your computer. I would try downloading the 64 bit version of iTunes from here:
iTunes 11.1.3 for Windows (64-bit)
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1615
If issues persist when trying to install it, I would try running through the steps in the article named:

Otherwise, would you mind elaborating a bit on what the error message says, word for word?

I was today invited to upgrade my iTunes when I logged on. Update failed. Every time I now try to open iTunes I get error messages. Second message reads "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install iTunes. Error 7. Windows error 126"

I was today invited to upgrade my iTunes when I logged on. Update failed. Every time I now try to open iTunes I get error messages. Second message reads "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install iTunes. Error 7. Windows error 126". I now can't sync my iPhoneand I am worried that if I re-install I will lose all my contacts,calendar, notes, etc.

I too had this problems (Windows 8.1). A few weeks ago after the previous update before this version of itunes, I'd had a problem with the itunes store crashing and at that time I followed instructions to copy QTMovieWin.dll to the itunes folder, which fixed the store crashing.
Today I fixed the problem by:
Delete QTMovieWin.dll from C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes.
Uninstall ALL Apple Software using Control Panel / Programs and Features. I uninstalled:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Mobile Device Support
Apple Application Support
Apple Software Update
Bonjour
Delete the folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple
Restart the computer
Reinstall QuickTime
Reinstall iTunes
Everything works GREAT now, including the iTunes store. You will not lose your media files, I got everything back, all my settings, playlists, etc.

Why don't I get iRadio after installing iTunes 11.1.1 using OS X Mountain Lion in the US?

After installing iTunes 11.1.1 using OS X Mountain Lion, I do not have iRadio (or I cannot find it) in iTunes. Would anyone know a solution? Thanks!

At this point I recommend selling/returning your iPhone, and getting an older one that still has an older supported iOS.
Or buying a used or refurbished Mac that will support the iPhone. http://www.macsales.com/ and http://www.powermax.com/ are both good places to go, and the Apple Store has its own corner of older Macs to go to. Recognize PowerPC applications are not supported at higher than Mac OS X 10.6.8, and that Macs newer than July 20, 2011 can't run 10.6.8 without serious finagling. Migrating from old to new Mac also takes some work.
Recognize you don't have to buy the latest and greatest. Because if you do, you'll have to always try to make sure the software and hardware are running in sync. This is the down side of having integrated products. Eventually it does create older machines that can't run with newer devices.

I just tried running the Lenovo Hard Drive Quick Test both in normal mode and in safe mode. Both times it indicated a failed read test on the HDD. The last two tests also failed. I forget what those tests were called.
I am really beginning to think I have a bad HDD and the problem just happens to be in the reserved partition where my factory system software resides.

I tried to install iTunes 10.6.1 for Windows (64 bit) and it says "A required iTunes component is not installed. Please repair or reinstall iTunes. (-42404). I have tried uninstalling everything and reinstalling and it still does not work.
