ITunes 7.6 will not install on Windows Vista 32-bit (iPod Service problem)

Basically, my story is near-identical to the one here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1572880&tstart=0
EXCEPT that after trying EVERYTHING rmurtagh did, I STILL had no success. Specifically, when I try to install iTunes, I get the error "Service 'iPod Service' (iPod Service) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." and when I try to change anything using services.msc, I get the error, "The system cannot find the file specified." PLEASE HELP!!

when I try to change anything using services.msc, I get the error, "The system cannot find the file specified." PLEASE HELP!!
Are you getting that if you try to manually restart the iPod Service in Services.msc?
If so, do you get an error message number with the message? If so, what number is it?

ITunes 10.7 will not install on Windows Vista

I just got a new iPhone 5, and so I need to update to iTunes 10.7. But, whenever I attempt to install iTunes onto my computer, after completely downloading everything, it starts the install, but after about a minute of this, it stops installing and says, "Errors occured while installing the updates. If the problem persists, choose Tools > Download Only and try installing manually." I have tried to use its suggestion of just downloading iTunes 10.7. It downloads, but whenever I try to install (Welome to iTunes, Add iTunes shortcut to my desktop and Use iTunes as the default player for audio files checked, etc...), the status bar fills (It says Status: Copying Old Files just before it drops to just Status: ) but just sits there, doing nothing. I am also a little unsure of which file I should be trying to use first (there's AppleApplicationSupport.msi, AppleMobileDevieSupport64.msi, iTunes64.msi, and SetupAdmin.exe). I have not tried uninstalling iTunes and completely reinstalling it yet, however, mainly because I have nowhere to store my library in the meantime. I am not doing this as an administrator, but I did try the exact same thing on my administrator account, and it did not work. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

To clarify, I already have iTunes 10.6. Also, I just checked back on the iTunes installer (the manual one) and it now says: "iTunes Installer Completed
The installer encountered errors before iTuens could be configured.
Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified.
Please run the installer again, or click Finish to exit."

CS3 will not install on Windows 7, 64-bit. No error message. Just stops installing.

CS3 will not install on Windows 7, 64-bit. No error message. Just stops installing. This is a brand new machine. This is one of the first things I'm installing on it. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. The disks are fine. I have the programs installed on my two XP machines. When I run the disk, I get the window pop up that says "Initializing Installation for Adobe Creative Suite 3". Then the disk stops spinning and nothing else happens. No error message. Nothing else happens. I'm baffled. I have searched several discussion boards and cannot find anybody that has had a similar install issue like this.

Old_Timer I would recommend reviewing your install logs to determine the exact error message. You can find details on how to locate and interpret the logs at Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-installation-install-logs-cs3.html.

ITunes 64 bit will not install on Windows 7 (64-Bit)

I downloaded the 64bit version if iTunes (itunes64setup.exe), and when I went to install it, it went through most of the installation procedure and it stated that I should "download the 64 bit version of the iTunes software" (which as I said before, I already did).
I did the "delete the temp folder" bit, and that did not help. I would like to be able to just update my iPhone from anything other than my Netbook. So what should I do. A nice set of "step by step" instructions would help.
I already searched the "Support" section, and I could not find ANYTHING on the 64 bit version of iTunes. So I followed every instruction on "problems with installing iTunes" that related to the 32 bit just to make sure.
So basically, the "64 bit software" is reading like it is the "32 bit software" and I have downloaded the software and re-downloaded it 3 more times. Same problem each time.

Same problem for me. iTunes 64bits instlls well up to 80% of the process.
then it says that some software components are missing.
I was never able of completing my iTunes installation (on my new computer).
earlier versions are no longer available and the iTunes for 32bits isn't accepted by Windows 7 64 bits.
Can anyone at Apple explain what this is ?
Has anyone experienced the same problem ?

Itunes Downloads and will not Install on Windows 7

After downloading, I try to run itunes and get the following:This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package. How can I fix this?

Will not install in Windows 7 64 bit

Downloaded SafariSetup.exe but it will not install. Clicking on it results in message: "The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you are running." I need Safari to run WebKit. Is there a Safari that will run on my computer? OR is there another browser in which to run WebKit?

Yeah, I think it falls into the same category of problems as "not a valid win32 application", "invalid signature", and "unknown publisher" messages ... usually all of which relate to installers getting damaged on the download.
At any rate, I'm glad you got things working again.

Adobe Reader V9.0 will not install on Windows Vista Ultimate SP1

I have Windows Vista Ultimate Build 6001 and tried to install adobe reader V9.0. The download was fine but when I run the program (AdbeRdr90_en_US.exe) it returns the error:
"NOSSO (R) has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available
Close program"
So I guess my questions are
1. Is there a version of adobe reader that will install on windows vista ultimate SP1?
or
2. Is there another pdf reader that will work with Vista Ultimate SP1?
Thanks for any and all assistance!!
Mark

I am getting the exact same error:
I have a brand new HP xw8600 systems with 64 bit Vista Ultimate installed.
Via google I found a suggestion to turn on user account control.
I went to control panel > User Account > Turn User Account Control
checked the box and restarted the system. I ran the install as the administrator. It was a minor improvement. Instead of the error coming up immediately like it was, I got the OS confirmation asking if I wanted to install the program. I got the failure right have selecting "yes"
Running out of clues... any help?

IPod will not install on Windows Vista, iTunes is fine?

Hello,
I am running Windows Vista Ultimate on 2 computers. One computer connects to my 60GB iPod video just fine, while the other looks for drivers and then fails to find any. I get a window that pops up saying "Insert the disc that came with your iPod" after Windows searches for drivers. Because of this, the iPod does not appear in iTunes, nor does it appear in My Computer. I have tried performing a soft reset on the iPod (Menu/Center combo) which did not work. I have also tried reinstalling iTunes to no avail. This is a brand new Windows installation and I just can't figure out why it won't work. iTunes seems to work just fine in all other respects.
Thanks,
Brian

Scroll down to the quote from WickedMX.
Basically, C:\Windows\System32\Driverstore\Repository and look for a folder that starts with usbstor. You will probably have two different versions. Open the folder that is the newest version and then copy the files usbstor.inf and usbstor.PNF. Copy them to the C:\Windows\INF folder. Try installing your device(s) again and it should work like a charm!

Itunes cd hardware will not install on Windows xp

What's the precise text of the error message, please? (There's a few different ones I can think of that you might be getting.)

Quicktime will not install to Windows Vista "could not open key..."

I have been trying to install Quicktime for some time.
Get error message: "Could not open key: UNKNOWN\Components\9c430...... Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your local support personnel." The installer then rolls back.
I kept trying and was able to install QT, but it would not open. Error messagesaid something about a "side-by-side" configuration.
I am the only user/administrator of this pc. I have tried all troubleshooting steps on this website, including uninstalling all Apple software and all remnants.
I tried all troubleshooting steps. My next step is to re-install Windows.

Doublechecking, Alex. Have you tried the procedures from the following post?

(Although that's about an iTunes install problem on 7 rather than QuickTime install problem on Vista, similar sorts of troubleshooting proicedures can apply in your circumstances too.)

BootCamp will not install in Windows Vista

I installed Windows Vista on my MBP 17" OSX (10.6.4) with no problems. The problem is now when I go to the Vista side, and try to install BootCamp drivers, I get a message saying "Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this computer model". Does any one know what is wrong? Does my Vista need updating? Thanks for any help.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Windows 8 also works, but only with compatible Macs > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US Note that you can also install Windows 8 in non-supported Macs by Apple, but you will not be able to install the Windows support software.
As you have got Mac OS X Snow Leopard and after checking that your Mac supports Windows 8, you need to download the Windows support software from this website > http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1638

ITunes 10.5 will not install on Windows XP

I'm trying to install 10.5 iTunes on my Windows XP computer, but it keeps giving the following message:
" There is a problem with this Windows installer package. A program required for this install to complete could
not be run. Contact your support personnell or package vendor."
I think it says the I should contact Apple to tell them that their installer program is no good.
But what do you think???

Thank you soooo much!
I have been tring to install this for HOURS. Last night I got the first error messages. It was a nightmare. I decided to uninstalled everything apple related and see if I could reinstall it all by myself and I got the same error message.
I though it was a windows XP issue or that my Windows Installer was corrupted. I spent hours reinstalling my windows services and using crazy command prompts and I still got the error messages.
This morning I keep trying other things and when I was about to quit and give up on this I decided to google "problems installing new Itunes 10.5 with windows XP" and bingo I found you! I can't believe it was something that easy. I downloaded Quicktime 7.7 and although I got the same error message again I left the window open and I skipped to your second step to repair all the apple files. Then, automatically the quicktime.exe continued its downloading.
After all of this I finished with the next steps and EVERYTHING worked!!!
you're amazing! thank u thank u!!!
STEPS:
Step #1) Go to Apple download and update your Quick time to 7.7 (do not update anything else cuz you can't)
Step #2) Go to control panel, add/remove programs, and click on "apple application support", click change, and repair. Do same to apple mobile devise support, click change and repair, then to apple software update, click change and click repair.
Step #3) Push Ctrl, Alt & Delete to see if your "bonjour" service is running. If not you have to turn it on by going to control panel, Admin tools, then services.
Step #4) Now you can click on "itunessetup.exe" file that you downloaded. If you haven't you need to download.
Step #5) Now it will install without any problems.
Step #6) To sync with your iphone you MUST restart your computer.
