Itunes 5 CD Installshield Error?

Hi
I have just got my black nano and have put the cd rom in it says it can't install due to an installshield error. What can I do now? and is this the reason why itunes 5 wont play songs on my computer?
Greg

I agree with you that something is wrong with iTunes 5. My problem is with burning a CD though. The revolving rainbow circle shows up and never goes away. I have to force quit to get out. Burning is unsuccessful. Hope someone comes up with a fix to this bug soon. Until then, I will go back to an earlier version I guess.

  • Help - iTunes V4.8 'Program Error' at end of install.

    Please can anyone help with this CD installation failure of itunes only (without ipod connected):
    The installation of quicktime seems ok then iTunes, but on completion a window opens stating 'Program error, iTunes will close.. an error log was created'. No associated error number is displayed and I can't find the error log. At the same time the folder System32 opens. The Installation wizard says everything worked ok but if I then run iTunes the same 'program error..' window appears.
    Thanks in advance.

    hi BB!
    hmmmm. that's an unusual sort of error message.
    let's first try taking any CD-drive complications out of the loop. download and save to your hard drive a fresh copy of the itunes installer from the apple website. (we'll run the install from there rather than on-line.)
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    try switching off all background applications prior to the install too (if possible, disconnect from the internet first):

    do you still get the same error then?
    keep us posted.

    it wont let me download itunes, it keeps saying "error". How do i fix it?

    You say "It won't let me download iTunes ...".  I cannot imagine what you mean.  What does "It" mean?
    iTunes is a part of iOS on your iPhone.  If your iPhone can turn on, iTunes is already there.  You cannot separately download iTunes to iPhone; you would have to update iOS to get a fresh copy.

  • I can't update itunes. I get error message can't find "itunes.msi". What can I do?

    What can I do to download updated itunes. I get error message can't locate "itunes.msi." folder.

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • "itunes has experienced an error and needs to close"

    while trying to import my c.d. collection to itunes, i quite often get the message "itunes has experienced an error and needs to close. do you want to send the error to microsoft?" it usually takes me about 20 minutes to import 1 c.d. to itunes becuase i have to keep re-opening itunes after it closes. i never lose anything i have already imported. sometimes i will get through 5 songs before i get the error message, sometimes i cant get through a single song. whats the deal here??

    What if you try importings CDs to your computer (not to iTunes) Is this normally working? If yes the problem is in ITunes and if no the problem is maybe your CD player. If the problem is in iTunes you should try to download the latest version from the Apple pages and then update/reinstall.

  • "iTunes has encountered an error and needs to close" -Gapless Playback

    I've had this problem for a while now and I'm just plain sick of it!
    Every time I start up iTunes it does the "Determining Gapless Playback" thing, but when it gets to certain songs it freezes up and I get an error message that says:
    "iTunes has encountered an error and needs to close"
    This happenes to a lot of songs (a few dozen)and the only way I can actually access my library is by hitting the 'x'next to "Determining Gapless Playback" before it gets to the songs. However, now I can't even do that because it gets to the song immediately.
    I need to know if I can disable the gapless playback or somehow debug this (I have reinstalled iTunes, Quicktime works, I have reloaded my library, done a system restore,and changed users/startup programs... nothing works)
    PLEASE help!
    I run XP if that helps.

    Kar,
    Check out the steps Roy B posted in this thread. They are long and a bit convoluted, but they seem to have done the trick for many others having this problem.

  • "iTunes has encountered an error and needs to close" - can't open iTunes

    Hi guys,
    I'm a huge Apple fan so I obviously decided to upgrade to Apple 7.0.1 the day it came out... installed it. Opened it up, but within just a few seconds i got a Windows message saying
    "iTunes has encountered an error and needs to close"
    I reinstalled it and still have the same problem.
    First few days I could atleast keep iTunes open for a few minutes before the message, but now its down to just a few seconds.
    I run Windows XP if that helps any.
    Please help me fix this problem or tell me how I can put iTunes 6 back on my computer --- I need my music!
    Thanks

    After downloading and installing 7.0.1 my iTunes would not open either. Even worse is you can't go back to v6 if you had v7 running--the database is updated.
    Luckily I was able to get my iTunes to open again by doing the following:
    Click Start/Run
    Type in "%userprofile%\application data\apple computer"
    Right click on the iTunes folder and rename it to iTunes.bak.
    Close the window.
    Click Start/Run again.
    Type in "%userprofile%\local settings\application data\apple computer"
    Right click on the iTunes folder and rename it to iTunes.bak.
    Close the window.
    Try opening your iTunes again. It may re-ask some general setup questions, but mine opened without the error, and it still had all my music. However, I did have to re-authorize my computer.
    I used to never be leary about updating iTunes... guess Apple's software ain't no peach, either.
    Hope this helps someone.

  • How do I stop my iTunes from getting an "error and has to close" message?

    When I open iTunes, it wants to update my Music Match and I get an error message that "iTunes has experienced an error and has to close".  How do I prevent this?

    No, an external drive will not always be mounted. If the drive goes to sleep, it can unmount, or it may unmount for other reasons. As Chris said, confim that the drive is mounted and active before launching iTunes.
    Regards.

  • My Itunes wont open - reading error "cannot be read because it was created by a newer verdion of itunes"

    My Itunes wont open - reading error "cannot be read because it was created by a newer verdion of itunes"
    should i uninstall/ reinstal.
    will i loose all my music nd playlists?

    This technique should work...
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • Problems reinstalling Itunes 10.4. Error 7 (Windows Error 14001).

    I cannot reinstall itunes after uninstalling. Error 7 (windows error 14001). How do I fix this?

    Thanks for posting this, zrakks, because I was going crazy with this one.  I'm having the same exact issue with the same version, Win7x64, with my taskbar on the left side too.  Didn't know THAT was the reason (taskbar on the left).  Hopefully they fix this in the next version--this is a pain in the a**!
