Invalid Win32 application error message while downloading itunes 10.5

c:\users\wynne\appdata\local\microsoft\windows\temporary internet files\content.IES\KDF6805B\itunessetup[1].exe is not a valid Win32 application
I am running Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit (I think?)
Can anyone out there help? Please

  • ITunes 7.1 won't start, invalid Win32 application error message comes up

    I repeatedly tried to download iTunes 7.1 for my new iPod nano on my Windows XP, when the download completes and I try to run the program an error message comes up stating that iTunesupdate.exe is not a valid Win32 application...I have tried erasing iTunes completely then re-downloading it, tried re-intsalling but nothing works. I have been trying to get help for the past month now, no one seems to know anything, this is the last resort please help ASAP.
    Thanx a bunch.

    okay, let's give this document a try:

  • Invalid Drive: H:\ error message when downloading iTunes 8.0.2

    For some time now, I've been trying to upgrade to the 8.0.2 version of iTunes. I get almost to the end, when I get an error message that says "Invalid Drive: H:\" and then I can't download it. I've tried to figure out the problem, but I have no idea what to do. I'm afraid to remove iTunes altogether and then try downloading it because I don't know if I'll be able to download it then, and if I can't then I won't have the program at all. Any suggestions?

    If you are having problems, it is best not to use "Upgrade" in iTunes. DOwnload the installer from the APple site:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    SAve the installer onto your desktop rather than running it from your browser.
    Then you can upgrade manually using the installer you saved.
    That won't solve your problem, but it simplifies things.
    You can often get round the invalid drive message by providing iTunes with the drive while you are installing. DO you know what comes up as drive H:, maybe a camera or external drive?
    If you don't have something that comes up as H:, maybe you could plug in a memory stick and allocate drive H: to it.
    This article about something else contains instructions for allocating a drive letter.

  • TS3212 Error message while downloading itunes

    Trying to download itunes on my laptop with windows 7, getting an error message stating "Apple mobile device" not recognized.  My ipod is registered and the error message only asks to retry or ignore, niether works, any help would be great.

    many thanks.
    Okay ... something may just have gone screwy with the permissions for your usual Windows user account. Unfortunately, that's a bit trickier to deal with on an XP system than on a Vista or 7 system.
    Let's first try installing from inside a different Windows user account.
    Create a new Windows user account with full administrative rights.
    Log out of your usual user account, and log into the new user account. (Don't use fast user switching to move between the accounts.)
    Try installing iTunes from inside the new user account.
    If it installs, log out of the new account and log into the usual account.
    Does your iTunes launch in there?

    Same problem here! Moreover, for some reason, the pictures in my iPhone 3GS somehow have been divided into 2 folders, Photos and Medialibrary. And when I open iPhone as a folder through the explorer I can see only the Photos folder, but cannot see the Medialibrary folder which stores the photos taken before updating/upgrading the iPhone and getting separated folders!!! What the hack with all of this?!!! When I connect iPhone to PC it automatically opens iTunes and starts syncronizing it, but at the process of OPTIMIZING the photos (and according to the number of photos it shows, I see that it tries to syncronize that invisible Medialibrary folder) the process suddenly stops and error message pops out Tried the sync test, tried the button DEBUG in that pop out message, but NOTHING HELPS!!! Also, when I open the Medialibrary in my iPhone, the screen get sblack all through scrolling it down, only the video clips are shown there... >.<
    So, could you, apple developers, please, explain WHAT THIS PROBLEM IS ABOUT?!!!!!! FIX IT! I am getting ****** of to spend hours at the computer and reading those lame advises which do not help at all! I have my own things to do except reading your support websites. And I payed for the product ready to use, but not a halfproduct which problems should further be solved somehow by users..

  • Error message while downloading new version of iTunes

    I've tried downloading an updated version of iTunes several times, but I continue to get this error message:
    An error occured during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.50727.4053",type="win32",publicKeyToken="1fc8b 3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="x86". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x800736B3.
    Any suggestions on what to do?

    i'm assuming the Error code HRESULT: 0x800763b3 means something and is the solution but where can i find the answer or am i going about this all wrong?
    Yeah, this 0x800763b3 is a slightly unusual one. Normally with these, the iTunes install error code matches the error codes that people get on their Windows Update failures. But for the last two 0x800763b3s I've been involved in on an iTunes install (Liv and someone else), the 0x800763b3 on the iTunes install has been associated with an 0x8007000b on the Windows Update failures. (Liv's 643s were pretty much "generic" error message codes for Windows Update failures, which could mean anything. So that's why I/we went after the 0x8007000b, which has some Microsoft documentation on fixes.)
    Doublechecking on other symptoms of your situation ... is your Windows Update not opening at all when you try to launch it?
    If so, when you click "Turn Windows features on or off" in the "Programs and Features Control Panel" item, is the Windows Features dialog box empty? (No features are shown?)
    (If we can't get the codes from the windows update failures, we might be able to make some progress if we can identify other symptoms that you're getting. I know some documentation for some of these codes that mentions the Windows Features thing as a possible additional symptom.)

  • *.exe is not a valid win32 application error message

    When I download updates I cannot install them.  I get the error message that they are not valid Win32 applications, which I know is not correct.  This is apparently a common problem with Windows 7, and nobody has come up with a solution in the
    forums.
    Any ideas?

    OK.  I think I figured it out.  Neither the forums nor MS were of any help whatsoever.  In my case, my recollection was that the problem started at about the same time I had an infection, and installed antivirus SW (Ad Aware), which fixed
    the problem.  Today, I unistalled Ad Aware, and voila! the *.exe files download and run as they had before the problem arose.

  • Error messages while downloading-Solution

    This is not a question, but i have seen a lot of people asking about and error message saying Error=450 please make sure your network connection is active etc. or some other error number. Anyway, to solve this either make sure iTunes is allowed through your firewall system or take down your firewall completely temporarily.
    IF YOU USE WINDOWS VISTA: FIREWALL IS NOT YOUR PROBLEM.
    if possible, change your account type from "Standard" to "administrator" and check for purchases. You should immediately be able to download. Best of luck!

    CarrieHein1234 it appears that the USWebCoatedSWOP.icc color profiles is being used by another application or process on your computer.  Perhaps start with a reboot to see if you still experience the same difficulty.  If so then look to see what other programs you have installed which might be attempting to utilize this color profile.
