ITunes 7 won't install on windows 2000 (network error) but iTunes 6 works

Hi, I hope someone can help me with this. I have been trying for almost a week to download the "Idol gives back" videos but I'm not able to with iTunes 6. Says I have to upgrade...sounds easy enough, so I download Itunes 7. I already have the latest quicktime installed and it works fine. The setup for iTunes 7, however, will not work. I get this exact message:
Could not access network location iTunes\.
I read in another forum that editing some registry keys would help but that didn't work. What does this error mean? And why won't iTunes 7 work with Windows 2000 whenever iTunes 6 works perfectly? This is very frustrating, all I want to do is download the Idol gives back videos to help out the children's charities. I never thought they would make it so difficult. I know I can't be the only one with iTunes 7 issues. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

that's normal. a number of the error messages that displayed with a number in 6.0.x and earlier versions of iTunes (like the 1606, the 1316 and certain species of the 1402) no longer get the number showing up with the error message with the 7.x installers. (it seems to have been part and parcel of the change away from basing the installers on InstallShield technology.)
okay, let's try the general advice from the following document to see if that can help:

My itunes won't open in windows 2000

I just got my first ipod its a 2nd generation nano, I went to support to learn what all i neded to do to get music on it. Apple support told me to dl the latest version of itunes so i did that. After I installed it, I went to the icon and clicked it and it would not open. I tried opening it all other ways you can on a comp and all i get is a little hour glass that stays on for 3 seconds and then goes away nothing loads.
I have never had itunes on this comp ever soit couldn't be a matter of having other traces of itunes conflicting with the new version.
I did a complete uninstall and then went through all the steps to make sure there was nothing left of itunes on my comp then i put itunes 6 on my comp and it worked fine but when i plugged my nano into my comp it told me i needed itunes version7 or higher .
I am truly at a frustrated loss and any help would be greatly appreciated , I have a brand new ipod tha ti cannot use and i have been dying to have some music to listen to while at the gym.

First off does your computer met these requirements?
Windows Requirements
Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 or later or Windows XP
500 MHz Pentium class processor or better
QuickTime 7.1.5 (included)
256MB RAM
Supported CD-R or DVD-R drive to burn CDs
Broadband Internet connection (DSL/Cable/LAN) for buying and streaming music
Additional Video Requirements
2.0 GHz Pentium class processor or better
512MB RAM
32MB video RAM
If iTunes 6 is working fine for you and if your computer meets these requirments try downloading itunes 7 again and see if the problem repeats, if you get any error message during the install post it here that will give many here an idea of what is going on.

7.5 won't install on windows 2000, can I still sync my ipod?

My ipod wouldn't be recognized by my Itunes, therefore stopped syncing with that older version of Itunes. I went through the troubleshooting, uninstalled my Itunes, attempted to install version 7.5 but was cut off when I was told I needed Windows XP or Vista. Before downloading the installer, it said Windows 2000 w/ service pack 4 would work. No, i'm not sure if I have service pack 4, nevertheless, I just want to sync songs onto my ipod.
Is it possible to re-obtain an older version of Itunes, simply so I can sync my music onto my Ipod? If not, can I have some other suggestions

+When I check the ipod once completed nothing there. The software version shows as 1.2.2. When I try to upgrade is says it already upgraded. If I try to restore it still stays as 1.2.2. Not sure what the problem is.+
Firmware version 1.2.2 ... sounds like you've got a 5th generation iPod.
If so, try the *Windows 2000* instructions (for reverting back to firmware 1.2.1) given in the following document:
iPod (5th generation): Songs and other content do not appear after updating to software version 1.2.2

Suddenly itunes won't open on windows 2000

Within the last wk updated to new version of itunes after much frustration. Ran fine for a wk now all of the sudden it will not load???? No error message, just won't start. Please help, thank you.

I don't get a "flash" w/ itunes but do w/ quicktime???
hmmmm. okay, this is more difficult to do in 2000 ... if you were running XP, i'd suggest trying this:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538
... but i don't believe you've got MSCONFIG on 2000.
what we're doing is trying to track down weird start-up items on your PC with four- and six-letter-names that don't return any hits if you do a google on them. (there might be a new malware thing out there.) see if these techniques are helpful:

(they are more closely associated with windows problems than a program conflict, but something in there might be useful in this context.)

Accck. Have you checked to see if you've got a broken Windows Modules Installer, ral? See the following thread for troubleshooting advice for that possibility:

ITunes won't install in Windows 8.1

I Clicked Download iTunes after selecting it for Windows 8, 64 bit. A new screen came up, thanking me for downloading iTunes, and describing all its features. That's great, but where is the download? I don't get an error message, I get nothing. What can I do to install iTunes on my PC?

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?

ITunes won't install on Windows 8

I've seen this question asked a few times but it hasn't really been answered.
I am running Windows 8 and had a problem syncing my iPhone 4s to my iTunes so decided to uninstall and reinstall. Now when i try to install I'm geting the error "This App can't run on your pc".
I've tried to run as administrator, open using windows 7 configurations and nothing. Same error.
My windows updates are all up to date and I'm trying to install the latest 64bit version of itunes.

Oh yeah - that sound of marbles, that's my brain dropping on the floor from the loss of marbles after re-install # 13 and 14. Here's some more error messages. Please - Apple tech folks - get out of your Porsche Panameras and please fix this!

ITunes won't install on Windows Vista? 32 bit

I have Windows Vista (the 32 bit) and after I got an iPhone I tried to sync it to my iTunes. But it said I needed a later version of iTunes (I had version 9.something). So after I downloaded iTunes 10.2.22 or whatever, whenever I tried to open iTunes I got a message that said, "ITunes did not install correctly". I uninstalled and did it again, only to get the same message. Help?

Shockwave Flash update won't install on Windows 2000 SP4?

Anybody else having this problem? It downloads fine enough, however will not install because of the following error: "The procedure entry point SetDllDirectoryW could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll."
This is for Adobe Flash 11.2.202.235. The previous version (current) has apparently been discovered to be not so secure.

Windows 2000 is no longer supported on current Flash 11 versions.

It looks that Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the last version for Windows 2000

HELP! iTunes won't load, gives Windows - No Disk error

This is so aggravating!
Last week I purchased $100 worth of audio books to put on my iPod for a vacation. Immediately iTunes wanted me to upgrade to 5.0, so I did. That's where the nightmare began.
With both versions, when I click on the iTunes icon (or the menu item), I get the license agreement, click "agree", then wait a moment before getting the Windows - No Disk error telling me to put a disk in "the drive" (it doesn't specify which drive). The message doesn't go away no matter how many times I click, or how fast, (I've gone into the hundreds). The only way I can get rid of it is to go into control/alt/delete and cancel the iTunes.exe process.
I have now spent about 20 hours trying everything I've seen on all the boards. I have uninstalled using Windows uninstaller; I've reinstalled standalone quicktime; I've installed with the ethernet cord disconnected and the USB's disconnected (including external hard drive); I've made sure all firewalls, etc. were off (McAfee, not Norton). I've done everything but voodoo.
I can roll back to iTunes 4.9 but it won't let me access my very expensive iTunes music and books - it just tries to take me to the music store and tells me to upgrade to 6.0!!!!!
Can someone please help?!

hi scottymac!
header; iTunes.exe - No disk
There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk\DR5.
hmmm. actually, i've had
b mixed
results when trying to fix this one, and you're actually the first person who's reported only getting it
b some
of the time (that i'm aware of).
so if you don't mind, let's try doing some basic research.
(1) head into your "My Computer" while you've got the ipod plugged in. what drives are being assigned to what drive letters? for reference purposes, here's a screenshot of my "My Computer" window:
http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1HtsRhQOZw6zixPuie63kEUx4RNKvP0
(your ipod may not show up in this window. don't panic.)
do you get the message when you're in this configuration?
(2) could you head into your itunes "Advanced-General" subtab and take a screenshot of that for us? there's instructions on how to do that given here:

Adobe Acrobat 9.3.1 won't install on Windows 7. Error 1303 on ActiveX directory.

Hi,
I have tried searching in all the windows and adobe forums but couldn't find the answer to this problem. I had Adobe Acrobat running. I updated, not sure if it was 9.0 or 9.3 but it didn't install properly and it messed up my adobe installation. I removed all Adobe programs (Acrobat, Flash, Air) but the Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\ActiveX directory is not accessble. The installer fails with Error 1303 saying it doesn't have permission to access this directory. I have tried Editing the Advanced properties to change the ownership but the owner is not visible and unchangeable. Please help me fix this. Due to this Acrobat cannot be installed and without PDF, its impossible to use so many programs.
I was running the installer as Administrator.
Thanks.
P.S.
Error 1303. The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX. The installation cannot continue. Log on as administrator or contact your system administrator.

Thanks. I was logged in as Admin. What helped was the age old proven solution for any Windows problem, a reboot. For some reason, some process was probably holding on to the lock. Some uninstaller forgot to ask me to reboot, or perhaps I forgot to reboot. Oh well.

ITunes Won't Install On Windows Vista

Hi,
About a year ago, I had iTunes on my Windows Vista 32-bit SP2 computer and then I switched to Mac, so I uninstalled iTunes on my Windows Vista computer thinking I wouldn't need it anymore.
Now I want to install iTunes again on it but, I keep getting this error 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 personnel or package vendor.
At this point I really don't know what to do.
Thanks.

Issue Solved: Itunes won't install on windows

Hey all, I have a windows computer running windows 7 and have been unable to install itunes on it. I tried all of the help site tips on the apple site and they didnt help. I had an error message 7 (windows error 193).
They said this was an issue with the dynamic link library (.dll) the solution fixed my itunes issue but they told me it may interfere with another program (but that hasn't happened yet and it's an easy fix if it does)
1. Go to your C: drive under "My computer"
2. select the "System 32" file.
3. find the "msvcr100.dll" item: it was a ways down but you need this exact one.
4. when you find it- click and drag it to your desk top.
5. a warning will pop up- ignore it.
6. itunes fixed!
if you run into problems with another prgram now, just put this "msvcr100.dll" back in the system 32 file. Apparently it's just an old .dll from windows that hasn't been fixed.
Thanks all!
Luke

ITunes won't install on Windows 7

iTunes had been working on Windows 7 but then, after I unintsalled some apparently unrelated programs, it couldn't load up. I've downloaded the iTunes installation file and tried to install or repair 3 times but keep getting a message that a required component is not installed (-45075). I've tried 2 installation files and I've uninstalled before installing again. But I keep getting the same thing: the program appears with the warning popup box in front, and if I click O.K. or cancell the box, the program disappears.

I've downloaded the iTunes installation file and tried to install or repair 3 times but keep getting a message that a required component is not installed (-45075).
Just in case the component being referenced is not part of iTunes but is rather part of one of the other related programs, it might be worth trying a complete uninstall/reinstall of iTunes and related componentry, as per the following troubleshooting document:
