ITunes 10.5 keeps failing to install - missing components

Hi, I'm really hoping someone can help me - I went to upgrade to 10.5 (64-bit). Initially I was told that it failed to install properly and I would have to manually install the different components (yeah I'm a tech-moron), which I tried to. But they kept failing to install.
So I uninstalled iTunes. And I then re-installed. But this is now now working.
I keep getting a dialogue box telling me that "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes, Error 7 (windows error 126)" or words to that effect.
Does anyone have any ideas as to what I can do. This is especially urgent for me as my 4S is in the post! And yeah, like I said I'm a moron about stuff like this so step-by-step assistance would be really appreciated. Thanks!

After reading all these posts, one by one did not resolve my problem until I got the very end.  Regardless of what step would resolve your problem, these are the steps I would recomment to everyone for a what seems to be a safe and fool-proof upgrade to iTunes 10.5.
1. Stand alone upgrade to the latest Quicktime version
2. Go to control panel and "change" then select repair to the following applications in the order specified by the post on Oct 27. (Notice I skipped Quicktime because it had been upgrade manually,and Bonjour did not have a "repair" option)
iTunes; Apple Software Update: Mobile Device Support; Apple Applications Support
Some of these applications may not appear if they do not apply to your configuration (no iPhone, or no iPad, or other apple devices).
Once all updated, I did not need to restart nor launch any applications, I simply went straight into the 10.5 upgrade, and where it normally got stuck, this time the installation continued for a while longer until it completed successfully.
Great work everyone who contributed!  Thank you very much!

    perl-test-without-module is in the AUR.

    It's quite simple. When the AUR package was created, the current version of Aptana was 1.0, but the source url links to the latest version. This was all ok until they released version 1.1 because then you suddenly have a completely new file that gets downloaded and because of this is will fail the md5 check.
    It's very simple to fix though, in one of two ways. Either just delete the md5sum=() array (changing pkgver=1.0 to pkgver=1.1 would also be a good idea), or download the PKGBUILD and in the same directory as you store it just run makepkg -g and replace the md5sum array with the resulting data (this would be the best way to handle this...).

  • HT201366 Security Update 2013-003 keeps failing to install - 'Unexpected Error occurred' - and now my MacBook Pro is running extremely slowly?

    I have repeatedly tried to update the software 'Security Update 2013-003' on my MacBook Pro OS X Version 10.7.5 but it keeps failing to install, stating that 'an Unexpected Error Occurred'.
    Since the update failed the first time, my MacBook Pro has been running extremely slowly and failing to open basic apps like Mail and Safari at times.
    All other updates have been successful apart from this one. I have made sure that my MacBook isn't full (emptied Trash etc) but it still runs really slowly at times so I think it's linked with the Security Update failure.
    Please help!
    *I have tried installing the update from Support Downloads but it says there isn't space on Macintosh to install it. There is 190 GB of free space on that disk so I don't understand that at all.
    LION system.

    I have tried and it downloads successfully but when I install it, it comes up with this:

  • IMovie 10.0.2 keeps failing during install

    I have been trying to update iMovie but it keeps failing during install. It gets nearly to the end, then I get the error "Cannot install Titles". I see in the reviews that this is happening to many people.
    I am running Mac OS 10.9.1. I can't run iMovie because it says it is being updated. I can't update, so iMovie is trashed. All because I followed Apple's directions.
    What's the fix?

    Best to reinstal iMovie 10.  It will already be version 10.0.2.  details on reinstalling from App Store here:

  • Itunes sync- fifa 13 failed to install

    i have ipad 2 GSM jailed (6.1.3) i have downloaded FIFA 13 (latest version) in my computer, but when i sync FIFA 13, this message pop-up  during the installation process on  ipad "itunes sync- FIFA 13 failed to install" other apps installs successfully..... iv also used programs like ifunbox,itool to install FIFA 13 but still it doesn't install...i hav also installed the same FIFA 13 in my ipod touch 4g...it installs successfully and it is working, it only doesn't work on my ipad

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • My flash player quit and keeps failing to install... need help please!

    Hi.  I am not able to install my flash player.  I went thru the troubleshooting tips on adobe.com/go/tn/19166, but still keep getting the message *Failed to install* .  I don't know what to do now.  I called phone support and they sent me here!  Can anyone guide me??  Thanks!!

    First let's try to see if Flash Player is correctly installed.
    When you go to this site http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ - can you see the Flash animation? What version of Flash Player does it show?
    Also, what version of Internet Explorer are you using?

  • Creative Cloud desktop update keeps failed to install

    I try to update the creative cloud desktop but, it keep failed to in still

    Tried all solutions referred here and in other threads: (1) downloading tne installer from CC download area, (2) changing the name of given folders, (3) uninstalling CC desktop, (4) removing residual data with CC cleaner tool, and (5) changing user privileges in Application support folder.
    None worked.
    I also analysed the error log. It shows the error "DW040", which only reference in knowledge base points to an issue with third-part programming to CS. After using the Cleaner tool, I found another log reporting "AAM installation ended with return code 251", but again the knowledge base knows nothing about it.
    So we are going to the sixth day of problem without a solution. I cannot install other apps from my subscription without CC desktop app, although I am paying the whole price (just installed PS, MU and ID). Adobe is forcing me to lost several hours just trying solutions –and the same is going with many other users – besides not being able to use what I paid for.
    I would expect a new CC desktop version to address these issues, but even this is quite uncertain. After searching in forum and knowledge base, I found several references to similar installation errors with CS6. Since then, Adobe not only was unable to fix this issue but also released a new package (CC) with tons of marketing investment but without equivalent attention to user support and app testing.
    Very very frustrating.

    I get a message telling me that a netwrk device is unavailable and asks me to locate the windows installer file, itunes64.msi (or similar)
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)

  • Can't download ios 8 in my iphone or iTunes? it keeps failing

    hi,
    I have been trying to update my IPhone 5s from the release day itself. But it keeps failing on halfway, i have tried to update through iTUNES and IPHONE. I rebooted my phone , reset the network settings and still its failing. It's just that it restarts the download in mid way . I have 6 gb left in m phone too. I really wanna update my phone and get my hands on ios8.

    Hey Rahul,
    The iTunes app is asking / telling something before the download hangs?
    What you can do to check if it's a server, ISP or iTunes problem, is to make a direct download from Redmond Pie or OSXDaily just iOS not the firmware (unless you don't want to go back to a previous iOS version). Then do a manual update through iTunes, option + click Restore, choose the IPSW file and done.
    Hope this helps.

    Who cares who wins

    Seriously Microsoft?
    Here's the thing, I received a call from my dear mom about this issue. She's not computer expert and never will be. She has no idea how to turn anything off from computer. But she's annoyed that she has to start up computer every
    single time now twice because some one of Q&A fucked up. Your given solution is Invalid! Please come to solution what even 50 year old can do with out some sort understanding how to go ms config and disable startup programs and
    run disk checks. 
    This update confusion makes me want go and buy my mom Apple, and then you guys have meetings on MS wondering why apple does so good. This is the reason. Everyone aren't computer wizards and rather overpay things on first day than pay
    to some long haired WoW player every single time when MS Q&A fuck's up. This is second time in 30 days when I have to travel to my moms house ( 140 miles ) fix something what you guys fucked up. 
    Next time I send you a bill and you can debate abut it in EU highest court. 
    Wow, that's pretty harsh, Taavi.  You seem to have a pretty narrow-minded idea of how many
    hundred of thousands of different configurations Microsoft has to support with a single, unified update system.  Go get your mom an Apple - see how that works out for you.  Something tells me you haven't
    bitched or moaned about the hundreds of other updates that DID seamlessly, automatically and silently install - but now you're all venom and hate towards Microsoft for missing a small detail somewhere in in a massive list of possible configurations. 
    You might try using RDP or some other readily available tool to allow remote access to the box without having to drive 140 miles to dear mom's house.  That's how I take care of my parent's machines, and it's worked well for me.  Then again, I like
    seeing my parents - any chance I get, and I generally get a home cooked meal out of the deal.
    If you can stop acting like a douche bag long enough to actually try and troubleshoot the problem, you likely would have figured out of to solve this issue yourself.  You're one of those kinds of people who LOVE to Bandwagon-bash Microsoft
    when it's convenient for you, but the rest of the time you silently LOVE to use their products. 
    Whatever you do, don't give Microsoft any credit for their successes - that bitter pill just might drive you over the edge.
    Flames aside, here's what I did to get these particular updates to install.  It seems that KB2515325 is the hinge that's making or breaking these installs from working one-after-another.  I installed all the updates I could, did a reboot, and was
    left with the 4 KB's mentioned.  I didn't download the standalone updates, either - I used Windows Update.  Here's what I did to get them all to install on my 64-Bit system:
    Install KB2492386 by itself - unselect all other updates
    Reboot
    Install KB2515325 by itself - unselect all other updates
    Reboot
    Install KB2522422 by itself - unselect all other updates.  I was not asked to reboot after this update.
    Check for updates again, and you should only have KB982018 left.  Install KB982018.
    Reboot one last time, then everything will hopefully have taken.
    If that works for you, Taavi, be sure and give me your address so I can send
    you a bill for providing you step-by-step instructions.
