"insufficient privileges" errors when installing iTunes 10.0 (Bonjour)

I attempted to install iTunes 10.0. Initially I used the auto-installer and I received the following errors:
"The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Program Files\Bonjour. The installation cannot continue. Log on as administrator or contact your system administrator."
Then the same error with the following file:
"C: \Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\com.yahoo.go.sync.client.resources\...\Windows."
I was given two options to either "retry" or "cancel" --"retry" just keeps throwing the error up. I was forced to click "cancel" both times.
Following hitting cancel twice I got an "installation interrupted" message telling me that the installation had failed.
Following the errors recommendation, I logged off and relogged on as the administrator. Then I downloaded iTunes 10.0 from the Apple web site and attempted to install it manually as the administrator while logged on as the administrator (right click the program "run as Administrator"). I received all the same errors and the same failed installation.
When I attempt to go into the program files and alter the privileges to bonjour or the Apple\mobile device support I get a “you do not have permission to view or edit this object’s permission settings” even when logged on as the administrator. It appears that both are Apple programs probably installed with a previous version of iTunes so I am not too sure why the tight security and why I do not have the ability to modify them.
I am running Windows 7 (32bit). Any assistance with getting iTunes 10.0 installed correctly would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there, this is what had to do.
First a bit background. I got the same errors. Insufficient privies for this and that. Logged in as Admin, same problem. Gave my user account Admin rights, still same problem.. now it actually said only 'Creator/Users' can install etc.
So long story short deleting, rebooting, magic... all failed.
1. I uninstalled all Apple software!!
2. yes all of it. Uninstall programs. Uninstalled Apple stuff, then Bonjour then Quick time.
3. tried to delete folders that were left behind, got smacked with insufficient rights to do so.
4. Logged in as Admin (that will teach ya Win 7)
5. Used Unlocker and LockHunter. I was able to unlock/kill process of some files and was able to delete some folders, but not all (grrrr)
6. disabled AntiVirus/Spyware program
7. that allowed me to delete all folders (wth? .. okay then)
8. went into registry and Searched for 'Apple'
9. fainted when I saw hundreds of Apple entries.
10. deleted all obvious 'Apple', 'MobileMe' and 'Quicktime entries', take care not to delete 'Applet...' stuff. Not the same. Like I said I only got rid of obvious Apple software stuff.
11. finally I ran CCleaner (great app, get it and donate a couple of $$) and had it scan, back up and clean my registry.
12 rebooted and logged in as me/user
13 checked /program files to make sure bonjour, apple and quicktime was really gone
14. downloaded latets itunes
15. installed itunes, did my back ups and updated ipod software
man that only took me a couple of hours

  • "Insufficient privileges"-error when starting database when on network

    Hi
    I have an Oracle 9.2.0.5 database installed on my laptop (Windows 2000 Prof), but I have a small problem.
    When I'm plugged in to the company's network, I can start the database normally.
    However, when I'm not connected to the company network, i.e. only logged in locally on my laptop, then I get an ORA-01031 Insufficient Privileges error when I start the database. Therefor, I can't do anything.
    When I'm plugged into the company network, start the database, and then unplug my laptop, I can still connect to the database. So I guess it checks some userrights only when it starts the database.
    I checked the user account settings, and my user is a local administrator, and is in the ORA_DBA usergroup.
    Does someone know which setting I have to change?

    You can install MS Loopback Adapter on your system and assign an IP Address to the loopback adapter. You should then be able to work even when not connected to the network.

  • TS3212 I get an apple application support error when installing itunes. It says uninstall and re-install.  Does not work.  same message.  What is a solution?

    I get an apple application support error when installing itunes. It says uninstall and re-install.  Does not work.  same message.  What is a solution?

    Is that an error 2 message?
    If so, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • ORA-01031 insufficient privileges  error when selecting from a view

    OK I think this might be a dumb question but I can't figure it out:
    User John has been granted SELECT privilege (directly, not through a database role) to schema FRED.table1;
    User John can issue select * from FRED.table1; and it works just fine.
    User John has then been granted SELECT privilege (directly, not via a database role) to schema
    MARK.view1;
    MARK.view1 only selects from FRED.table1. No other tables are in the view1.
    Schema MARK can successfully query the views. SELECT * FROM VIEW1 returns results.
    I also checked the MARK schema to ensure that it has been granted SELECT on FRED.table1 directly which it has.
    Now, when logged into schema John, I try SELECT * FROM MARK.VIEW1; and I get ORA-01031 insufficient privileges error.
    I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this. If John is granted SELECT ANY TABLE, it of course works but I don't want John to have that powerful priv.
    To recap, John has SELECT on both MARK.VIEW1 and the table which VIEW1 selects from (FRED.TABLE1).
    John can select from FRED.TABLE1 no problem but receives a privilege error even though John has SELECT on MARK.VIEW1.
    Any thoughts?
    Oh, Oracle EE 10.2.0.4

    Oh, Oracle EE 10.2.0.4Are you certain John has been granted select on Mark.view1 ? In order for that to work Mark would have to have been given select on Fred.table1 WITH GRANT OPTION ... otherwise the grant would fail and then John would not be able to select from the view because the grant was never successfully issued.
    Here's a basic test case (which i think conforms to what you've outlined) to get it working.
    drop user u1 cascade;
    drop user u2 cascade;
    drop user u3 cascade;
    create user u1 identified by u1;
    grant connect, resource to u1;
    create user u2 identified by u2;
    grant connect, resource, create view to u2;
    create user u3 identified by u3;
    grant connect, resource to u3;
    connect u1/u1@orcl
    create table test1 (col1 number);
    grant select on test1 to u2 with grant option; --> this is the important part
    grant select on test1 to u3;
    connect u2/u2@orcl
    create view test2 as select * from u1.test1;

    Not a lot of documentation on that one, I'm afraid, but there's some general principles troubleshooting we can try with it that might get us moving forwards.
    (1) Do you currently have a copy of the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package installed on that PC? If so, try downloading the following security update:
    [Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update|http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=766a6af7-ec73-4 0ff-b072-9112bab119c2&displaylang=en#filelist]
    Does iTunes install for you after applying that update?
    (2) If no joy there, head into your Windows Update and click on the Update History. Have a lot of Updates also been failing for you recently? If so, doubleclick on the entries for the failed updates to bring up more information on each. What error codes appear for you for the failed updates? (Precise spelling, please.)

  • Error when installing itunes 10 on windows 7 64 bit

    why do I keep n getting the error messages when i try and install itunes on windows 7 64 bit. But sometimes it will install but once it gets done it say that something is not install I need to uninstall and reinstall itunes..... is there something I need to do to get this to work....

    HRESULT:0x800736FD
    It's rarer to see these on Windows 7 than it is on Vista. Somtimes they're a bit easier to deal with on 7, too.
    First, head to Windows Update and see if you can update the PC. If you can, and you collect updates without any errors, try another iTunes install.
    If you get errors installing Windows Updates, double click on the failed updates in your Update history to bring up a small window containing alphanumeric codes for the erros. Are they also 800736FDs, or are you getting other error codes?

  • ORA-01031:Insufficient Privileges error when I am trying to use ALERT_QUE

    Hi,
    I am working on SYS.ALERT.QUE for getting system alerts. I am using ODP in C# for connecting to Oracle database with username = SYSTEM, but when I am trying to enque or deque any message from SYS.ALERT.QUE, its gives an error ORA-01031:Insufficient Privileges. I am not able to understand how to assign SYSDBA privileges to SYSTEM and access ALERT_QUE for getting system alerts. I am posting my code below, plz have a look and let me know whats wrong with the code. I am able to connect to databse using SYSTEM, do I need to use username = SYS for accesing ALERT_QUE of database? Plz let me know whats the solution.
    OracleConnection con = new OracleConnection(constr);
    // Create queue
    OracleAQQueue queue = new OracleAQQueue("sys.alert_que", con);
    // Open connection
    con.Open();
    // Begin txn for enqueue

    Thanks a lot, that worked. Now I am facing one more new issue, when I am trying to deque message from ALERT_QUE which is oracle maintained queue for alerts, I am getting an error "ORA-25215:User data type and queue type do not match". Is there something wrong with my code like Message type, payload and all. I am very new to Oracle database so I don't have idea about this details. Can u plz help me in solving this.
    OracleTransaction txn = con.BeginTransaction();
    // Set message type for the queue
    queue.MessageType = OracleAQMessageType.Raw;
    // Prepare message and RAW payload
    OracleAQMessage enqMsg = new OracleAQMessage();

  • Insufficient privilege error when executing DBMS_ERRLOG through PLSQL

    Hi,
    I shall be grateful if any one of you give me the solution at the earliest.
    I have 2 schemas like A & B those are running on Oracle 10g rel2.
    As per my buz req' I need to create DML Error log table for 'A.T1' table in B schema using DBMS_ERRORLOG package.
    I have granted direct SELECT on A.T1 to B (...not through ROLE as it doesn't work in plsql)
    The problem is when i'm running the procedure,
    DBMS_ERRLOG.CREATE_ERROR_LOG('A.T1', 'err_T1', 'B');
    in SQL*Plus of B schema, it's creating the error log table successfully.
    But the same will get failed when i run this error log procedure with in a procedure owned by B schema.
    It throws 'ORA-01031: insufficient privileges'...
    I hope this is related to privilege issue which is working fine in SQL*Plus but NOT in PLSQL stored procedure.
    Awaiting your earliest reply.
    Thanks.
    - Ela

    Hi,
    It's not an issue with direct privilege. Actually the package is working when i execute it with in a ananymous block, but the same get fails when execute it through procedures...
    Even we have given COMMENT ANY TABLE priv to the schema and that too didn't work out.
    awaiting your reply.

  • IPod Service error when installing iTunes 7.3.1

    When I tried to upgrade to iTunes 7.3.1, towards the end of the install it said that it couldn't install iPod Service. I've tried erasing my Temp directory and turning off iTunes Helper when installing, but nothing works. Help!

    Hmmmm. What's the precise text of the message you get mentioning the iPod Service? There's a couple that i'm familiar with, but the way you describe your error makes it sound a bit different from those ones.

  • Error when installing iTunes 9.0.2

    Hi all
    I'm trying to update iTunes but whenever I start installing it, it stops saying "Invalid Drive: E:\".
    I don't have an E:\ drive and I pointed the install to C:\Program Files\iTunes as always.
    Any ideas??

    I'm trying to update iTunes but whenever I start installing it, it stops saying "Invalid Drive: E:\".
    That can sometimes happen if there is an error in the Windows Installer database as to where one of the files to be uninstalled is currently located. The installer looks for an item on (in your case) the E drive, doesn't find an E drive at all, and gets horribly confused ... and you get an Invalid drive message.
    When that happens, we can sometimes get past it by putting an E drive on the system.
    Do you have an external drive or a thumb drive of some description? (An iPod in manual mode would do fine ... anything that shows up in your "My Computer" as a drive would be fine.)
    If so, plug the external drive in. Check the drive letter it gets assigned in "My Computer".
    (1) If the drive letter the external is assigned is E, try another iTunes install (install iTunes to its standard default location, not onto the E).
    If the drive letter the external is assigned is not E, change the drive letter to E using Disk Management, using the following steps:
    Right-click My Computer, and select "Manage"
    Click "Disk Management".
    In Disk Management, right-click the external drive and select "Change Drive letter and paths ..."
    Click "Change".
    Select "E" and click okay.
    Now try another iTunes install (install iTunes to the default location, not onto the E).
    Does that get you past the "Invalid Drive E" message?

  • ISScript Error When Installing Itunes

    Hi I have had an Ipod before and have Itunes 4.8 installed on my comp. Recently I've tried to install a newer version of Itunes onto my comp (Version: 6.0.1.3) and I get through most of the steps untill the Installer starts to remove the backup files and I am issued a Itunes error:
    The Install Script engine on this machine is older than the version required to run this setup. If available please install the latest version of ISScript.msi or contact your support Personnel for further assistance.
    Then the Install script error is followed by a Feature Transfer Error stating:
    Error: -1603 Fatal Error occurred during instaltion. Consult Windows Installler (MSI.CHM) or MSDN for more info.
    So, I went to the Installshield website and found this article here: http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q108322
    I downloaded the one that says version six, being that is the version I am trying to install and that is what the procedure told me to do. (You'll understand when you go to the site)
    Well the install of the ISScript goes fine but when I reboot and try to install Itunes again, I recieve the same errors as before.
    Can anyone help me? Please help because I JUST ordered my Ipod Video today and it will be here soon.
    Also, I tried to uninstall Itunes, but when I go to the Add/remove Programs, Itunes, nor Ipod Updator is not listed. Only Quicktime is. I was able to remove quicktime.
    Please help.

    Hey Deb, wow I thought I had fixed the problem. The guy I talked to from Apple said it would work fine as long as I installed Service Pack 2 and guess what? It didnt. I contacted Apple again today and they're giving me a new response saying its a "Windows" problem and they can'thelp me out. So I went to installshield and typed in the second error I'm recieving, the 1603 error and It gave me a list of what I can do to troubleshoot it, yet I still have the problem. So I'm really not sure what I can do, I guess I will see what happens when my Ipod comes and I try installing Itunes from the cd. Maybe it will work.........(ya right) O well sorry for getting your hopes up but keep trying on it. I have no other ideas of how to fix this. Keep in touch!
