ITunes (11.3 64bit) cannot run because some its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes.

just set up my new laptop lenovo x240.
Windows 7 SP1.
itunes 64bit 11.3
first install went fine. then I tried to move my preexisting library. the library did not show the apps. so I tried around. Treid to re-install itunes.
Since I did, after the re-install, iTunes gives me the error message "iTunes cannot run because some its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
I tried the  -_> link: Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
unfortunately it did not resolve. please, advise... I am quite desperate... and surprised this is happening, since I am on a clean corporate laptop.
perhaps, can someone also steer me to a corner, where I can deactivate the cloud install pop-up ones starting iTunes?

    You should first uninstall iTunes completely.
    This is not an easy task!
    Read this article on how to remove iTunes completely

    Then download the latest version of iTunes for your Windows Version and install it.

  • Itunes can't run because some of its required files are missing. please reinstall itunes.

    I have an old Ipod nano, with great music on it, however no pc to sync it to and I dont want to lose the music.  I downloaded itunes 10.0 (most recent) and was trying to use yamipod to get the music from it, however it says that it works best with older version of itunes. so i uninstalled new itunes, tried to install older version, had issues, uninstalled all apple programs from pc, now when i try to install older version of itunes i get the error message:
    itunes cant run because some of its required files are mising. please re-install itunes....which i tried several times and still keep getting this error message...HELP

    No, that did not work. I did a system restore on my computer, and then that's why my iTunes reverted back to version 6. Whenever I try to download the newer version, it keeps giving me this error message:
    The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
    And then I will just click 'OK.' Then this will come up:
    The path 'C:\DOCUME~1\HP_Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\IXP705.TMP\iTunes.msi' cannot be found. Verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in a folder from which you can install the product iTunes.
    I just don't know what to do. Please...more feedback!!!

  • Recently had my cd drive jam while using itunes, fixed that, but now itunes wont load, I get a message that: itunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing, please reinstall itunes.  I have an HP notebook that came with itunes installed,

    That's crazy. A serial number is not required.
    Are you certain you chose the correct version to download?

  • I have a windows xp SP3 machine that is giving the error "itunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing please reinstall itunes".

    It worked fine one day then failed with this error the next.  I tried the repair and a completely fresh install with the same result.  I also tried installing an older version (7.0).  It installed, but would not connect to the server so I ran the upgrade hoping that it would work.  No joy.  Back to the error...  I haven't been able to find any other things that might fix it.  Can anyone help?

    I did try to uninstall and reinstall.  It messed up my computer.  I had to "RESTORE" from the prior days backup.  This was not helpful at all.  I'm used to losing all my stuff when I connect to iTunes, that's a whole other issue, but now I'm completely banned from any updates to my phone at all.  Geeze.......

  • ERROR MESSAGE: iTunes cannot run because some of required files are missing

    I don't know how this happened but it all started when my friend was trying to send me songs from his iTunes thru Yahoo Messenger. I tried saving the songs to iTunesminiplayer.dll and iTunes.dll. Then I tried opening iTunes after that to see if maybe the songs would appear on my library. So then I discovered that iTunes won't open anyomore.
    The error message suggested that I reinstall but I'm scared that all my files would be deleted if do that..
    What should I do?

    nevermind.. i fixed the problem. =)

    iTunes 11.0.5 for Windows XP

    Hey jrdeac,
    That sounds frustrating! Let's do a full uninstall of iTunes and all related components, then reinstall. The following article explains how to do so for your operating system:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Note: It is important to remove all of the listed software, in order. Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended effects.
    If the issue persists after completely removing, and reinstalling, please see the following article:
    iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues

  • Itunes could not run because some of its required files are missing. please

    After trying to run iTunes, I get the error message: "iTunes could not run because some of its required files are missing. please reinstall iTunes." It hasn't always done this, and I've had iTunes for years. Any ideas why it has just started now, and what I can do about it? Thanks

    have you tried reinstalling?

  • ITunes could not be installed because some of the files are missing, please

    I just bought an Iphone and when I went to install the latest version of itunes i get the message "iTunes could not be installed because some of the files are missing, please reistall iTunes" during the installation. I have tried every recommended solution I could find on the apple website. Does anyone know of a solution to this problem??

    A number of people seem to have had this problem, see this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1221432&tstart=0
    In the thread you will find a post from Royb of Apple inviting people to send in installer logs. It might be an idea to take advantage of that.

  • TS1717 I tried to open iTunes but a box pops up.  In it is written "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing.  Please reinstall iTunes."  I have done so a number of times but nothing is working.  How can I fix this problem?

    iTunes will not open because a dialog box pops up with "Itunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing.  Please reinstall iTunes.". I have done so a few times to no avail.  Any solutions for this problem?

    No you will not lose your content reinstalling iTunes.
    Do this:
    1: Download and run the Registry Cleaner of the free Ccleaner.
    http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download/standard
    2: Next follow this Apple document to un-install iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    3: Just for good measure, run Ccleaner again
    4: Reinstall iTunes.

  • ITunes 10.6.1.7: "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes." ?

    Fakt:
    iTunes 10.6.1.7 Fehlermeldung: "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
    Jeder Versuch iTunes zu starten war bisher vergeblich: unter anderem auch das Vorgehen nach Artikel HT1925 der knowledge base.
    Frage:
    Windows XP Neuinstallation und/oder Installation einer älteren iTunes-Version als letzter Ausweg?

    Antwort und Lösung eine Woche später:
    Deinstallation und Neuinstallation von iTunes 10.6.1.7 produziert dieselbe Fehlermeldung.
    Es hilft nur eine Reparatur von iTunes unter Systemsteuerung / Software. Allerdings muss hier Windows XP mit Hilfe von Ausführen / msconfig im benutzerdefinierten Modus erneut gestartet werden - ohne APSDaemon, Avira und Skype zu laden!
    Die Fehlermeldung unterblieb, die Reparatur schritt voran, meldete Erfolg und benannte eine wohl defekte Datenenbank unter C:\Documents and Settings\MyAccountName\My Documents\My Music\iTunes um in:
    iTunesLibrary (Damaged).itl

  • ITunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing.....

    "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
    Is the error message I receive when trying to launch iTunes or updating my iPod.
    I have tried uninstalling both iTunes and qtime, restarting, installing with the iTunes75Setup.exe found on the iTunes download page from apple.com.
    To help narrow the issue, during install/uninstall/repair this error also occurs as it is "Registering iTunes automation server"
    any suggestion on how to resolve this issue would be great

    First uninstall Quicktime 7.3 only in control panel. Then download Quicktime 7.2 from http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktimeforwindows.html. Hopefully it works for you because it worked for mine.
