ITunes 7.0.2 Error - ""This action is only valid for products..." message

Hi,
I see other folk are having problems upgrading to iTunes 7.0.2 but I've had a read of some recent posts and can't find a problem quite like mine...
OK, so I decided to say yes to the "upgrade to iTunes 7.0.2?" prompt when I turned iTunes 7 on this afternoon. I followed all the prompts correctly and allowed the computer to re-start when installation was complete.
My iTunes "i" icon has disappeared from the QuickLaunch bar, and has been replaced by a Windows application blue and white square-window icon. When I click on it to run iTunes I get an error message prompt:
"This action is only valid for products that are currently installed."
I click "OK" and then nothing happens, iTunes (niether 7 nor 7.0.2) does not load and there is no way to get into iTunes. Going through the menu bar results in the same error message.
I am not sure what to do. I don't want to wipe iTunes and start again because I have quite a few purchased tracks that may be lost, and I doubt I would be able to get them back.
Does anybody have any advice?
Many thanks.
(I have tried playing a QuickTime movie file and that works fine).
QuickTime 7.1.3 seems to be working fine.

Remove the shortcut that is in the QuickLaunch bar.
Go to C:\Program Files\iTunes\ and make a new shortcut for iTunes.exe and put it in the QuickLaunch bar.
That should resolve the issue.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

ERROR:"This action is only valid for products that are currently installed"

I am trying to open iTunes and I keep getting this error message. I try the shortcut, going through the start menu and I can not open iTunes. The program has not been uninstalled and I have even tried reinstalling with no success. I think a link is broken in the file, but I am not sure how to correct this.
I have all of my music on an external hard drive (if that helps at all). I just want to get back into my iTunes again.
Please help!

lordy.
okay let's try this procedure.
first head to Windows Update to make sure you're fully up-to-date in that regard.
next, head into Add/Remove and attempt to uninstall any existing QuickTime you have showing up in there. if it goes, good ... if not, we'll attend to it when we attend to itunes.
next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility and then use it to remove any itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information you find on the PC:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
now use the instructions in the following document as a guide for manually removing any leftover itunes and QuickTime program files:
Removing iTunes and QuickTime for Windows
now download and save a fresh copy of the itunes installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
iTunes 7.0.1.8 Installer
does that install go through okay? if so, does itunes launch normally afterwards?

'this action is only valid for products that are currently installed'

hi im new to discussion groups so i might be a little slow... i came aross a problem a couple of days ago where when i clicked on itunes this came up'this action is only valid for products that are currently installed' im not really sure what to do about it!i have tried to uninstall it but it wont let me i have also tried to install a new itunes but it gets stuck and never finishes the install. i have done some research on the net about it and i think it may have occured due to deleting mcafee of my computer however there are no solutions to this problem.
can anybody help?
thanks!

Every time I try to open iTunes a pop up opens
that says "This action is only valid for products
that are currently installed."
that's actually an installer error equivalent
to the InstallShield 1605 error:
Error 1605: This action is only valid for
products that are currently installed
... when you go to launch itunes, are you opening it
via the start menu, or are you clicking on a desktop
icon? if you are clicking on a desktop icon, what is
it called, and what does the icon look like?
Never Mind! But Thanks any way

Office 2013 - Excel 2013 - "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed."

I had Office 2010 starter and Outlook 2010 installed. I recently purchased the Office 2013 click to run version (paid monthly subscription) and installed Office 2013. After installing 2013 I noticed that when I opened up Excel files they would
still open in Office 2010. I uninstalled Office Starter 2010 and uninstalled Outlook 2010.
I then manually fixed the file associations for Word, PowerPoint, Publisher and such, however I could not manually fix the Excel file association.
Excel documents show the correct icon however when I double click on them the following error appears "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed."
I have used the Office 2013 repair process, I have uninstalled and reinstalled Office 2013, I have manually uninstalled office 2013 using KB 2739501 (
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2739501/en-us ) and I still can not open Excel documents.
Recently I found that I can not do mail merges either using Excel documents as the data source and I believe the two items are related.
Any suggestions?

Hi,
Please try to turn off compatibility mode and then check the issue again. To do this, please follow:
1. Open this folder location:
For Windows 32-bit: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15
For Windows 64-bit: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15
2. Find Excel.exe, right-click it, and choose Properties.
3. Click on the Compatibility tab and ensure that all of the boxes are
un-checked.

Hi all,
I had the exact same error using a user decision configuration. Issue was that I was using a VIEW that did not exist:
ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.TS90300005" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultApprovalView">
DefaultApprovalView was not defined as a custom view.
SOLUTION: changed it to standard SAP com.sap.pct.erp.srvconfig.approvaloverview view and it worked!
ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.TS90300005" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="com.sap.pct.erp.srvconfig.approvaloverview">
This is normally by default defined in a standard portal system.

"This code is only Valid for customers of the USA Store.", "This code is only Valid for customers of the USA Store."

I get this error message when redeeming an app from the apple "Aproved" website "Appexchanger" which is when you check out free apps and get credits to get paid apps, but i am in canada and everytime i go to redeem one i get "This code is only valid for customers of the USA Store." i think this is unfair because ive done what theve asked and theres nothing on the site that says "US ONLY" and the people who made it wont even contact me back! Please help i just want some apps!

Just FYI, Appexchanger is not "approved" by Apple in any way that I can detect. Apple does not appear to have any connection of any sort with that company other than as a customer.
This company looks to me to be nothing more than a way to harvest email addresses and other content information to sell to other companies, getting you onto all sorts of spam lists. I don't for one minute believe their claim that they won't sell your information (and if they don't, it's s good bet at least one if nor more of the developers will). But in any case, as Jay said, any problems or issues you may have with that company will have to be taken up with them. This is not an Apple issue.

"This code is only valid for customers of the store." - LOTR digital download

I have the codes to download the LOTR trilogy for digital copies, and the first and third movies download fine, but whenever I input the code for the second movie, iTunes keeps saying "This code is only valid for customers of the store." What is the problem?
And I am in the United States, downloading for myself.

I send a gift app to my friend oversea, when she went to redeem it say "This code is only valid for customers of Australia store", what do i do so that my friend can redeem the app? or how do i get my money back if she can't redeem the app?

i need help with this!!!

There is nothing your friend can do to redeem the app. Gifts, as the ITunes Store says when you go to make the gift, are redeemable only in the country of purchase. Whether you can get a refund no one here can say with certainty. The terms of sale for the iTunes Store state that all sales are final. You can contact the iTunes Store, explain the reason for your request, and ask, though:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
It's possible they'll make an exception for you.
Good luck.

While installing itunes i am getting error "this installation package could not be opened.verify that the package exists and that you can access it,or contact the appliacation vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package"

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

Well, you downloaded a bootleg copy of iOS 7 beta and have installed it on your phone without being a developer. It has bricked your phone and you cannot get help here because doing what you did has voided your warranty. Have a nice day.

I receive the error "this apple id is valid but not an icloud account" when I try to open icloud on my pc. Help.

Music purchased from the iTunes Store is automatically available in iCloud. This is "iTunes in the Cloud" and does not require an iCloud account. The music is stored in the iTunes Store, not in a personal iCloud account.
If you don't have any Apple devices you will not be able to create an account. It wouldn't be any value to you anyway as it syncs data on you computer with your Apple devices. If you don't have any, there is nothing to sync.

It is not possible to create a new iCloud account using a Windows machine. You must create the account using a Mac (10.7.5 or more) or an IOS device (iPhone etc). Once that is done you can sign into and use the account on your Windows machine.
