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.

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.)

System services error when downloading itunes

I received an error when updating iTunes. I uninstalled it.
When downloading iTunes from the website, I get as far as System Services and I receive an error.
Retry and Ignore do not work.

Thanks for posting the link. That worked for me just fine. I had previously uninstalled & reinstalled Itunes but that didn't work because I was not removing all the folders associated with it. Have a great week!

Error when installing iTunes. Cannot connect iPod Touch

I recently bought an iPod Touch. When I install iTunes, I get the following error-
"An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'microsoft.vc80.CRT', Public Key Toke='1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b',Type='Win32', version='8.0.50727.762' HRESULT: 0x8007054F"
Because of this error, the installer is unable to install Apple Mobile Device Center, and I am unable to synch my iPod Touch. I have spoken to Apple support numerous times with no success. They finally referred me to Microsoft. Microsoft refers me back to Apple, and there is nothing I can find online regarding the error.
Please help!

It does seem to look more like a Microsoft error than an Apple/iTunes error... have you tried installing iTunes in a new user account? If not, go into your Control Panel > User Accounts and follow the instructions to create a new admin account. Once you've created it, restart the PC and log in to it. See if you can download and install iTunes there.

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.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read this

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!

Help: IPOD service problem when installing in Vista

Message reads something like Ipod Service did not start make sure you have sufficient permissions. It then gives the option to retry or cancel. This happens at some point in the installation process.
I have among other things tried out all the steps outlined on the apple website, ensured I have admin access, created another admin account, msconfig, deleted completely all traces of Apple products even tried installing an earlier version all to no avail. I have contacted apple as well who though responsive were not much help either pointing me in the direction of well web links to manuals on the apple website. I also have SP1 installed. So My MS side of life is sorted.
I am fed up and might just have to return my IPOD touch if no joy. This is probably my last chance to make this work. Unfortunate that what is presumably a lovely piece of kit is a nightmare simply because I don't use an apple machine.
Alternatively can anyone suggest other ways to get this IPOD touch working other than Itunes. GGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRH

New developments:
1) At the point in the installation where it tries to start services, I get an error message saying that IPOD Service did not start. Ensure you have enough permissions.
2) I have done this using administrator account and even turned off Vista UAC all to no avail.
3) I have also uninstalled with Windows install clean up like for the 20th time.
4) Even when I do a clean uninstall and delete every trace of files and folders in other parts of the C:\ I stll find that IPOD service is listed and stopped. How is that possible?
5) Any time I attempt to start IPOD service in task manager I get an error message saying Windows could not start the IPOD Service on Local Computer Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.
6) There are only two options available when it stalls in no.4 above ie. either to retry or to cancel. When you cancel it rolls back the installation.
7) When I went to C:\Program Files folder there was no IPOD\bin folder and hence no IPOD Service folder.
8) Yesterday I decided to circumvent the installation procedure by opening folder rather than opening the file. I was able to save a few IPOD and ITunes files which would not have been possible if I had selected cancel because when rolling back it deletes most of the vital folders and files.
9) When I click on the Ipod service icon at this stage, nothing still happens. Also when I click on Itunes icon at this stage I get an error message saying some vital files are missing please reinstall.
Is there a registry hack to resolve this issue? I am convinced that it is the only way to get me out of the doldrums. I must also mention that I have Vista service pack 1 intalled.

Error when installing itunes version 9 on Windows Vista 32bit

When trying to install itunes version 9 an error has come up before the installation is complete.
The error reads -
An error occurred during the installation of assembly

Thanks

Thanks Emma!

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 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?

"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

Error when installing Itunes 7, need help!

Everytime i try installing the new itunes 7, i get this error, http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ituneshelpsl5.png

The Windows Installer service, the engine behind all MSI installers, performs installations with the built-in operating system account SYSTEM on behalf of the user. So it is SYSTEM's permissions on files, folders, and registry keys that ultimately matter. SYSTEM is normally the most powerful account, but if we run our computers as an administrator, it is possible to inadvertently curb SYSTEM's power by altering permissions with a program or directly ourselves. The result is failures at random points throughout the Windows experience. Based on the screenshot you posted follow these steps to re-grant Windows the permissions it needs to complete the installation.
1. Download and install SubInACL from Microsoft.
2. Assuming you installed SubInACL to the default path "C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\" then from Start Menu Run... execute:
"C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\subinacl.exe" /file "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\SC Info" /grant=SYSTEM
3. Install iTunes 7

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?
