    You get that error with a corrupt download.  If you aren't out of hard drive space, maybe you have some hard drive corruption or malicious or security software installed inhibiting access to your hard drive.
    Try running a check disk to resolve hard drive problems:

  • QuickTime Install Failed Error Code -3 - At Wits End Ready to Return IPOD

    I have been trying to install QuickTime with Windows XP for the past 8 hours. First, I receive the message Install Failed Error Code -3. Then I uninstall software and download and get Error 1722 and the Error 1603 Fatal Error. I'm in a vicious loop of installing/uninstalling. Called Apple technical support and they walked me through the same steps I've been going through all day and I still have the same results. I'm ready to return my daugheter's iPod. I have looked at all the technical help available and have completed every recommended solution with no success. What am I missing? Suicidal in Chocolatetown, USA.

    switch off antivirus and antispyware applications
    Download Quicktime 7.0.3 Standalone Installer
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
    Run the install from your hard drive, not over the internet
    That should fix you up.

  • Can't install Skype (6.18), Code 1638

    Instead of auto-updating skype, the program manually asked me to install the recent update. When I tried to, it gave me an error saying:
    Installing Skype Failed; code 1638
    Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove Programs in
    It didn't even finish the last sentence. I'm running Windows 7 Professional, and tried to unistall the program in the Windows Control Panel, but it didn't show up. I followed the "How can I completely uninstall and then reinstall Skype for Windows Desktop?" guide: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10634/how-can-i-completely-uninstall-and-then-reinstall-skype-for...
    I followed it up until I was supposed to run the reinstaller, but it gave me the same error as when I tried to update it before.
    I tried doing what it said in this post: http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/error-1638/m-p/1674543/highlight/true#M157151
    I used Program_Install_and_Uninstall troubleshooter, but Skype didn't show up. I chose product is not on the list, and it asked for the product code, which I don't have.
    Right now, I don't have any Skype files on my computer that I can find in the registry or on the C: drive, so I don't know what could be left. Hopefully someone can help me.

  • Lenovo 3000 N100 Network issue / Wireless Stack initializa​tion failed, error code 117

    Hi,
    Lenovo 3000 N1000 with 1GB Ram, Win XP SP2, purchased in May 2006. WLAN network with WPA-PSK key worked without any issues so far and is still accessible with PC.
    After transferring music via from my notebook to my mobile Bluetooth all network adapters seem to be disconnected. Neither Access Connections (AC) nor Windows can find any wireless network. Also if I try to configure any LAN, WLAN with Windows I get the message that all network adapters have been removed. However I cannot spot any issue in the device manager as all parts are shown to be working OK.
    This is what I've done so far:
    1) Checked Radio switch ---> on
    2) FN +F5 --> connection on
    3) Uninstalled AC, downloaded and installed most actual version (5.00 Build 7VCX32WW)
    4) Installed new version for wireless driver for Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG (version 12.0.0.82)
    Still, even if I uninstall AC to check if WLAN is working at all, Windows gives the error message that all network components have been removed.
    Diagnose Tool gives the following output:
    "Wireless Stack initialization failed, error code 117"
    Logfile:
    Description : Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection
    Type : Wireless LAN Adapter
    DriverVersion : 10. 5. 1. 59 ----> why is the old driver version??????????
    PNPID : PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4227&SUBSYS_10118086

    ERROR AcSvc( SYSTEM(Prvlg).1108.4580) [9/3]11:04:15:703 CAcGolan::GetRadioStateInDriver: Golan API GetRadioState() missing! 
    Hope this is enough information for anyone of you in order to suggest any solution. As I could see from previous threads some of you experienced similar problems in the past and could fix them somehow. However I couldn't find anyone with exactly the same problem.
    Thanks much in advance for any advice you might have.

    Hi
    I have this problem also with my Lenovo 3000 V200.
    Sometimes when I boot up the PC it will connect to the network and everything works just fine.
    At other times, after boot, the "wireless stack initialization failed, error code: 118" problem occurs
    and the only way to solve it seems to be a PC restart. Nothing else I do will bring the network up.
    If I study the Networking tab in Task Manager it indicates that no adapters are available (wired eth.
    access also fails). At a few occations connectivity have failed alltogether (i.e. a reboot have not solved
    the problem). Last time this occured I had to reinstall the complete system (from a previous backup)
    to get networking up.
    I have tried different versions of Access Connections (5.02, 5.12, 5.21) and the same problem occurs
    at seemingly random instances in time. This is obviosly a problem with the Access Connections software
    since the Wireless networking works fine when I let windows manage it...
    Anyone with a fix?

  • Error code 1601

    My 2 yr old iphone 4 died a few days ago and after researching on the web, I eventually found something that worked for itunes to recongnize it (I opened itunes, held down sleep and home button at the same time, attached usb, let go of the sleep button while still holding the home button, then let go of the home button) I don't know how, but it worked:)
    Thought I was home and dry, itunes recognized the phone in recovery mode and I clicked restore....however, after 5 mins a pop-up box with error code 1601 appeared - please help where do I go from here (I have tried different usb ports, and uninstalled all apple software, updates, quicktime etc. and re-installed).

    Hello there, JulieFromBootle.
    This article references your error message and provides helpful steps on resolving your issue:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1601
    Error 1601 is listed further below but recommends the steps for resolving Error 1604:
    Error 1604
    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.
    Error 1600, 1601, 1602
    Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro D.

    Burning the disc failed because communication to the disc drive failed (Error code 0x80020022)

    Two weeks ago apple replaced my superdrive and i hadn't tried burning a dvd since then, but cds did and do burn fine.
    This computer is under warrantee but in case the latest software updates caused this, or if someone has an easy fix that would allow me to save the trip to the store for analysis and potential couple day wait...

    At one point in the last few days i did run out of disk space on one drive, but i think i had 5Gig free on the short drive when i was trying it earlier, and i have upped that to 30.
    My spindled HP DV-16Xs worked on the drive i had before pretty darn well.. I've tried a bunch of unlabeled ones, i've also tried burning at 1x, and i went out and bought some jewel cased verbatim dvd-r 16Xs, same problem.
    I will take one more shot at finding the best media using that website, get some 8Xs if i can find them, before hauling it into apple.
    without the dvd burner it's hard to backup very well, I was planning to get a external hard drive next month.

  • Frozen ipod after new updates, will not recover, error codes 1601 and 1602

    i updated my ipod last night, was working fine, turned off, then on again this morning. was working fine this morning for a while, then went completely blank, will not start up, just completely dead. i have tried to restore,several times and get error code 1601, and 1602. have tried restarting my computer,checking for updates, restarting my itunes, using another computer, tried another lead, and everything else suggested by support. it will just not do anything. has anyone got any suggestions, please.

    I would suggest that you put your iPod into the recovery mode and restore it. Next time something like this, it is better to start with the more basic troubleshooting steps first before trying to restore. The two easiest are restart and reset.
    Try these steps with your touch.
    1. Unplug the device from your computer
    2. Turn the touch off - hold the Sleep/Wake button down until you see the red slider and turn the device off. Note: this may not work. If not, go to the next step.
    3. Start iTunes
    4. Hold the Home button down and keep holding it down while you plug your iPod back into your computer.
    5. Keep holding the button down until iTunes tells your "that an iPod in Recovery mode has been detected".
    6. Let go of the button and follow the on screen instructions to restore the touch.
