ITunes Error -3 and QuickTime Error 1722

Help!
I'm at the end of my tether here, I've been trying to install iTunes 6.0 on Windows XP SP2 and getting the error -3. So, I tried the standalone Quicktime installer as recommended on this forum and I get the 1722 error.
I've followed all the recommendations for fixing the 1722 error:
- I've uninstalled iTunes & all versions of Quicktime
- I've stopped all Anti-Virus/Anti-Spyware software
- I have full admin rights to the machine
- I've updated my Windows Installer
- I've run the Windows Installation Clean-Up Utility
- I've hacked the registry to death giving permissions to anything vaguely associated with Apple
- Ditto for permissions for the WINDOWS\Registration folder and the Program Files\Apple folder and the folder I'm installing from.
- I've stopped nearly every service I can and uninstalled just about everything that's non-essential
Are all Apple's updates so difficult to get working for Windows users? Should I just go back to the version of iTunes I got with my iPod and forget about updates or perhaps it's a cunning ploy to get me to buy a Mac?
Please, please help! I'm sick of this.
Thanks.

good lord, psifive ... are we talking: "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected." here?
that's an extremely unusual and exotic error message to be getting in this context.
let's proceed fairly cautiously, and start with something minimally aggressive. try

from the following document:

does the standalone go through now?

I reloaded iTunes 10 (64 bit) successfully, but the problem remains the same.
Any suggestions?

I looked in the folder from which I want to synch photos, but there is no such thing as an "ipod photo cache" in that folder, or sub-folders, as suggested in the link which you were nice enough to provide.
I have also tried removing photos from my iPad2 Photos App, and "iTunes has stopped working" shows up again as soon as I click on the "Synch photos from" button.

I have a Macbook Pro that I have just renewed and transferred over my old hard drive (also from a Macbook Pro). Now when I turn on the computer and ITunes opens I get error (-50) and then error 5002 when I try to sign in to ITunes Store - Help!

My dealer has tried and failed (twice) to correct this and I have tried deleting the two items in the Itunes folder but no luck!

were you able to get help on this? I need help on error 5002 as well. thank you

Hi

I cant open itunes. Get error 7 and windows error 5. How do I resolve?

I updated to latest version and cannot now open iTunes. I get Error 7 and Windows error 5. does anyone know what the issue is and how to resolve it? I have Windows 7 and the .Net Framework 4 or above and my pc will therefore not install it.

alexcookson,
The steps detailed in the article linked below can resolve this error (alternatively "Error 7") and help get iTunes to work on your computer.

Updating iTunes 12.1 and get error message "The procedure entry point CMBlockBufferCopyDataBytes could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreMedia.dll - what went wrong and how to resolve this?

Updating iTunes 12.1 and get error message "The procedure entry point CMBlockBufferCopyDataBytes could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreMedia.dll". What went wrong and how to resolve this?

Entry point errors can often be fixed by deleting the offending dll, then repairing the component it is part of.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If the advice above doesn't resolve things you could try this alternate version:
iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
which is a 64-bit installer for the 32-bit version of the core application, similar to previous 64-bit releases.
Or roll back to the previous build:
iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)

Installing itunes 7.6 and quicktime

help - I have repeatedly tried to install itunes 7.6 and quicktime both individually and together. I repeatedly get an error message which says 'error creating directory QTsystem\Quicktime3GPP.Resources\ja.lproj' - I then get ererr 2330 and then I only get an option to quit the installation process which I have to click which then rolls back the process and installation is aborted.
I have itunes 7.2 and cannot buy anything from the itunes store as it requires itunes 7.6.
I have gone through the troubleshoot page in apple - done the msconfig steps etc and nothing has resolved. Have now deleted quicktime so unable to install again as the same error happens. tried deleting itunes 7.2 but don't want to fully delete evryting as I will lose all my libraries. Have installed latest windows service pack 3 and this hasn't resolved the issue. My computer is XP Home.
Any help to resolve this gratefully received.

2330s are most commonly associated with damage to program files (in your case it looks like something in one of the Japanese language localisation resources for your QuickTime).
Try running a chkdsk over the drive containing that directory. (Usually it's the C drive, but if you've got your QuickTime program files installed on a different drive, try running the chkdsk over that one.)

Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, does an install go through properly afterwards?

Airport Hardware Dissappeared - After iTunes 7.0 and QuickTime 7.1.3

Hello,
On my powerbook G4, everything has been working great. I did a software update (via wireless connection) and iTunes 7.0 and QuickTime 7.1.3 were prompted. I went ahead with the update and performed the obligitory restart. After this reboot, the airport card hardware is no longer recognized.
In the log file during initiation when an internet connection is attempted, the following message occurs:
Internet Connect: WirelessAirPortDeviceNameCopy(): no AirPort drive found
I have tried many restarts (including a hard restart). I have reset the PRAM, and NVRAM but still nothing. This to me appears to be very much a software issue due to the circumstances. Are there any suggestions on how I may reinstall the airport driver or determine if there is a configuration problem?
Thanks in advance for any help.
PowerBook G4 15" 1.5Ghz 1.5GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.7) Built in Airport Card

I don't think this is an isolate issue, as I'm having the same problem. After the update my computer is now saying "Airport hardware not found" although I've been using it for almost 2 years now. I fixed it briefly by dragging some folder to the desktop as per advice on this site, but today it did the same thing. I was watching videos on MTV.com when an alert came up saying "Error, you need to restart your computer" and after I did my Airport hardware was "not found" again. Since I haven't dropped the computer and I wouldn't know how to take the card out if I wanted to, I don't think it's a simple issue of the card not being installed/connected properly. I'm open to any suggestions. I have the original disks that came with my computer, but I can't reinstall the software b/c the old software is still on there....

How to revert to iTunes 4.9 and QuickTime 7

Hello all
I used the Automatic Software Update yesterday and downloaded iTunes 5.0 and QuickTime 7.0.2 and now not a single program will work on my iMac G5 (using 10.3.9)!!!
I know there are other posts related to iTunes 5.0, but I can seem to find an answer to these questions:
Is there a way to revert back to the old versions?
Any one have advice on how to solve this problem?
Thank you.

Interesting.
Normally, if you have corrupt preferences of your 'third-party' (non-Apple) applications, they would have no effect on computer startup issues, as those preferences are not looked at until the program which owns them is invoked. Though perhaps this issue is with some of the Finder and Apple OS preferences being corrupted, which could cause problems with startup.
FYI, Crashes of a program may indeed corrupt its own preferences, and sometimes its own data files too. As your experience with Mail corrupting its own preferences, and Carrie Ann's with their tech move-the-Mail-folder recommendation shows.
But if the crashing or other bad behavior of the Apple applications (Mail, QT or iTunes) is writing bad data onto other, non-Apple programs' preference files, that would be extemely unusual program behavior. (The Mac OS was designed to protect memory, and be less likely to 'hose' other data...)
As you note, Bster, I do see that Apple has just posted a QuickTime (QT) 702 to 701 downgrader file. THis is highly irregular -- not sure what is happening with their Quality Assurance (QA) process these days...
But it does imply that they know something is not quite right with QT 702 and its interactions with other programs.
As a counterpoint note, I am running QT 7.0.2 on my iMac G5 and have not experienced any trouble with it. (I haven't noticed any particular or big improvement with the 702 over the 701 either.) The difference may be that I have stayed at iTunes 4.x and did not upgrade it to 5.0 (actually, my iTunes is 4.7.1 - a few versions behind). And I do not use Apple Mail application (I use the MS Entourage for email - though it is not a perfect solution either).
As well, regarding my setup, I always run repair permissions both before and after any of my significant Apple software updates, and I usually seem to encounter fewer sotware install problems than get reported in the forums.
(I mention this just to illustrate that sometimes software problems arise not due solely to an application or application update itself, but because it was installed onto a machine that had a few minor disk errors or permission errors existing on it before/during the update process. I hope this makes sense.)
Thus the general recommendation to always repair disk and repair permissions both before and after significant OS and application updates. And to not run other memory or disk intensive programs at the same time you are running the update.
So based on my personal computer setup, which so far is running fine with QT 702, it might imply a strange set of interactions between QT 702, iTunes 5 and possibly Mail -- but this is just a guess. It is a very curious situation that has come up with this.
One general recommendation: when you are on the tech support call, ask them to explain WHY a particular action is being recommended, and what it's other effects might be. This to increase your own understanding of the process, and to alert them that you are a wise user, so that they do not issue overly simplified procedures. Empower The User. ;^)

Hello there, tulchan.
The following Knowledge Base article addresses the very issue you're describing:
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
Check for .dll files
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
Reboot your computer.
Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.

Disable altivec extensions for iTunes 1.1 and Quicktime 6.0.5 in OS 8.6 ?

For kicks and giggles I'm trying to get an install of OS 8.6 working as well as it can on a G3 B&W again, just because it looks so cute. Not surprisingly the big stumbling block was getting a browser with somewhat acceptable usability (am using both netscape 7.0.2 and mozilla 1.3.1)
I've installed both iTunes 1.1 and Quicktime 6.0.5 but I can only get them to work when i have a G3 450 Mhz CPU installed. As soon as I put in a G4 650 CPU the system either locks up while loading those little puzzle pieces across the bottom, or whenever i try to open quicktime (or a browser tries to access it to play content).
I installed OS 8.6 while running the G4 and other than these 2 applications it runs quiet snappy.
It seems to me that the two apps in question only cause a crash while trying to access the altivec capabilities of the G4 CPU which I understand is not possible inside of OS 8.6.
Is there some way to turn off those requests, either at the application level or globally?
I am hoping that it is as easy as tossing one of those little puzzle pieces in the trash.
I'm trying to get 4 systems on one 20 gig backup drive (onboard IDE channel 8.6 / 9.2.2 / 10.3 / 10.4 separate partitions) all using the same hardware.
Any suggestions?

I think i figured it out. I installed OS 8.6 with an applecare disk that was for the original G3 blue and white, and i see that a different version of 8.6 shipped with a G4 PCI power mac which i suppose is the disk i need.
Am i on the right track? and is this fixable?

ITunes and Quicktime Error after automatice Apple update, need help!!!

So I currently have a new labtop with windows vista. I have been runining iTunes for the pass 3 months already no problems. The Apple automatic update has never caused any problems till now. Quicktime needed to be updated today, and I accecpted the update, prior to that iTunes and Quicktime was working properly. Once the quicktime update was complete, it restarted my computer like usual. Then when I tried to open iTunes this error came up:
"iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration"
Now I checked the audio configuration and nothing was changed or anything, that has not been touched at all, so I still think it had to do with the update. The next error was came up when I tried to open Quicktime and it read:
"Runtime Error!
Program C://ProgramFiles/QuickTime/QuickTimePlayer.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information"
So as long as I have been using Quicktime and iTunes I have never encountered this, I tried to re-install but the error kept coming up after it was installed. Please help me out!

ITunes 7.6 (and QuickTime) not opening, error

This is driving me insane, iTunes (from version 7) has never worked on my computer and I feel like I have exhausted every option from support pages. It (and QuickTime) installed successfully but as soon as I try to open either iTunes or QuickTime I simply get the standard malfunctioning message: "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
I'd send you the error report, except its huge. Any help would be hugely appreciated, as there is no chance in **** i'm buying an iPod without this sorted. Thanks
Matt

Oh, and I've already checked and tried the FAQ bit..
