I had to reinstalled windows xp on my PC and everytime I try to download itunes a message pops up saying "there is a problem with this windows installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run". But it does not say what program is required. I've had to reinstalled windows xp before and never had a problem.
Go START/ALL PROGRAMS/APPLE SOFTWARE UPDATE"
If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but "Deselect" any other software offered at the same time.
Once done, try another iTunes install -

I have a Mac Mini (early 2009) running OSX 10.8.1 on a Windows network that is driving me nuts.
Background
Typically, 6 or 7 computers are running (Windows 7, OSX 10.8.1 and Linux) on the network at any given point in time. Network printers and hand helds (iphones, PlayBooks, etc.) are also connected.
The problem
If one specific Windows 7 desktop is running, a pop-up error message comes up frequently. The eror message is:
There was a problem connecting to the server "[Server name or IP]". You do not have permission to access this server.
The pop-up sometimes refers to the device name and sometimes refers to the IP address of the desktop.
Oddities:
This does not occur on a MacBook Pro also running 10.8.1
The error message does not occur for other Windows computers on the network. I have laptops running Windows 7 Professional that have never shown up on the error message..
Files on the problem desktop are easily accessible through [Finder].
Things I've tried to resolve the problem:
Ran software update - multiple times
Changed the destination drive for [Time Machine] and completed a backup
Cleared the "Recent Server" list from the [Finder][Go][Connect to Server] screen
Attempted to demount the desktop in [Finder]. The option was not available
Disconnected from the desktop in [Finder]. This did not resolve the problem and the desktop was automatically showing on the [Shared] list in [Finder] after the next reboot.
Booted in SAFE mode to see if the problem re-occurred in SAFE mode. It did not.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.Thank you. It wasn't in there directly, but CISCO's "Network Magic" was there. Removing it appears to have solved the problem.
Thanks again and have a good weekend.

how am i suppose to access my phone? PLEASE HELP
Follow the process mentioned below step by step to get your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad working.
Make sure you have Latest Version of iTunes (11.1.3) Downloaded and Installed on your Computer, if not then you can download the latest version of iTunes from the Link below.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Now once you have the Updated version of iTunes installed on your computer follow the below steps to get your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad in Recovery Mode and Then restore it to factory settings
Open iTunes Application on your computer and then start the process step by step
1>Disconnect your device from the computer (if connected). The process won’t work if you start with the iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad connected to the computer. Leave the cable connected to the iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad, as you will be reconnecting the iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad to the Computer later in the process.
2>Power down your device. Turn off your device by holding down the Power button ( On Top right corner of iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad). When the power slider appears, slide it to the right. Wait for your device to comepletely shut down before continuing.
3>Press and hold the Home button (Home Button is located at bottom of your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad screen/display). With the Home button held connect the device to your computer with the USB cable. When reconnected, your device should turn on.
(If the low battery screen appears, charge your device for a few minutes and try the process again.)
4>Continue holding the Home button. After a few moments, you will see the "Connect to iTunes" screen on your device. This screen is a picture of an arrow pointing from a USB cable to the iTunes logo. When you see the screen you can release the Home button.
5>iTunes will display a message stating that a device in recovery mode has been connected. From there you can proceed to restore your iOS device. Once you see this message click on OK and then click on Restore
Once you click on Restore iTunes will download the Latest available version of iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad software (ipsw file) in your computer and after the download is completed the same will be restored in your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad. You will see the Download process and Restore process on top of your iTunes screen. Once the restore is completed your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad will automatically restart and you will see a message that iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad has been Restored and will connect after restart.
Now you will have to follow some steps on your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad to Customize your Device for First Use.
Hope this process will help you -

Re: Mail virus and Trojan issues
21-Jan-2013 14:58 (in response to Memoire)
Hi please help.
I have a iPad 2 , not jail broken, just 2 months old fresh from the apple store. Recently I have been directed to **** sites or a fake bad oink **** application, through various applications. From google chrome app, the photon app and safari.
I always delete cookies and cache on exit. I use photon and puffin to watch flash player videos on tv series site with links such as put locker. I heard that there is no virus for the iPad but Trojans do exist.
Pleae help, at first this was just happening with photon app now in 3 different apps, and it is directing me always to the same **** site. I don't watch **** so it's. it from cookies or whatever and my iPad has been randomly turning off and also the videos are working really badly now. Also there is a message red alert staying untrusted site and hacker may be intercepting your device. What is going on? Please help
Is their a new redirecting Trojan or virus for iPad 2. ? If yes how can I remove it and will it cause permanent damage to my device? How could I have got this virus and in 3 apps. I'm also,worried as I use my iPad to buy things online etc with my credit card. What shall I do?.. Do I restore my device? How do I do that as I cannot connect to iTunes as I do not have a computer, just my iPad. Any help appreciated thanks.AlaskanElizabeth wrote:
Happily- perhaps the most legit tech site on the Internet- cnet:
http://news.cnet.com/8301-1009_3-57506159-83/apples-ios-and-android-are-new-favo rite-malware-victims/
They broke a story on sept 4, 2012 titled "apple's iOS, the new favorite malware victims"
Despite the dramatic title of the article, the only mention of iOS in the body was this:
Even though malware is increasing in iOS, it still remains relatively low compared with other operating systems.
And, it provides no examples or other documentation. And, unlike you, I don't consider CNET "the most legit tech site on the internet". I find them to be generally biased in their reiviews and heavily influenced by advertisers.
http://www.forbes.com/sites/timworstall/2012/06/26/yes-apples-machines-really-ca n-get-viruses
The Forbes article descibes issues with the Mac OS, of which there always have been some, though certainly far fewer than there have been on the Windows platform. It goes on to speculate :
All those iPads, iPods and iPhones? Is this going to be a juicy enough target for the virus and trojan writers to at least attempt to attack, even given the difficulty of doing so?
Again, the Forbes article doesn't mention any current viruses, trojans or malware that exist which will affect an unjailbroken iOS device.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/05/15/iphone-malware-kaspersky_n_1515074.html
And, the HuffPo article quotes Grebennikov thusly:
"Our experience tells us that in the near future, perhaps in a year or so, we will see the first malware targeting iOS," Nikolai Grebennikov, Kaspersky's chief technology officer, told Computing.
Again, even Kaspersky doesn't say such things exist now, merely that they might.
Speculation about what might happen in the future or articles focusing on the Mac OS or Android are not terribly relevant. So, if you do have any other citiations, preferably from a source that doesn't derive most of is revenue from the companies it reviews, that document a virus or trojan that affects an unjailbroken iOS device, I would be interested. I have not been able to find any. I thought, perhaps, as a professional, you might know of some.
Thank you. -
Is it possible to get a trojan horse on an Android?
>>Duplicate post removed to comply with the Verizon Wireless Terms of Service. See Is it possible to get a trojan horse on an Android?<<
Message was edited by: Verizon ModeratorMost likely a false advertisement that is attempting to get you to download a malicious program on your Android.
Highly recommend not hitting "fix".
Yes Androids can have viruses, I would recommend wiping the phone with a factory reset if you believe that your phone has become infected with malicious software. -

I have restored it twice and updated it, the water sensor shows it has not been wet. Not jail-broken and exterior buttons all work. It seems to have problems connecting and being found by a computer (Windows). How do i fix this and will Apple fix it? Thanks
lol yea when i inserted the link i just copied and pasted thats why that happend... Lets try again... http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/
Anyways when I go to it theres a drop-down list and you select the one you want and I know the number next to it identifies the model but the thing is they don't have my model listed so my main question is, what version eg. 2.1.1. or 2.2.1 etc. etc. etc. etc. will work with my model of ipod touch which is the 2g Model A1288?
Does anybody know? Does it work with any firmware thats for 2G ipod touches or do i have to get firmware thats model specific? -
So my iPhone was stolen and most of the music on there was on a computer that I don't have anymore. Is it possible to get those songs back from my stolen phone or are they gone?
For iTunes purchased music you might be able to re-download it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes. For music from other sources (e.g. copied from CDs) then unless you had subscribed to iTunes Match and uploaded it to it from your computer then no, it won't be stored anywhere

I updated my ipad1 thru iTunes from 4.2.1 to 4.3.5 and now having issues, especially playing videos. Anything I should know. I have not jail broken my iPad and don't want to.
you update it by connecting it to a computer running itunes and starting itunes up on the computer clicking on it in devices and clicking on the update button in the content menu
if it say you have the latests then it's because you don't own an iphone 3gs but an iphone 3g where the version 4.2.1 was the last released
in that case you can't ever update it
