ITunes installation being blocked

Hi All,Have a new H30.00Getting error message when attempting to install ITunes " Could not write value Action to key\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Explorer\Autoplay\Handlers\iTunesBurnCDOnArrival.Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel ".Any help would be appreciated. Hitbit.

I had already set my options to allow installations, I rebooted and everthing went through ok, the only thing I can think of is that I had used media player earlier and that in typical microsoft style, it had left a process running that was causing a conflict.
I install/uninstall quite a lot of software and have never come across a complete block before - the givaway was the media player icon in the task bar when the popup appeared.
Thanks for your help

Cannot connect to the iTunes store. Get 'Error 11222'. Claims it is being blocked by Windows Firewall when it is allowed through.

When an external application tries to connect to it through iTunes I get 'Error: 11222'. When I try to connect through the iTunes app it just continuously loads but nothing appears. Diagnostics says that Windows Firewall (Which is being managed by McAfee) is blocking it, even though it is allowed through both firewalls I have. Even when I turn WF off iTunes claims it is being blocked by it. I have done almost everything Apple's support pages have suggested but nothing has worked. I'm using it on an Acer Aspire laptop, and the main PC can use iTunes without trouble so it isn't the ISP. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes twice. Here is a full diagnostics:

I have purchased a new PC and am being blocked from accessing my itunes account why???

You are being blocked how ?
If you mean that your library isn't showing then it won't automatically appear on it. You can authorise your iTunes account on it via the Store > Authorise This Computer menu option (with iTunes 11 pressing Alt-S should get the Store menu to appear). You will then need to either download your content onto it (what you can re-download will show under Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage), or copy if from your old computer or your backup.
If you are referring to something else ... ?

ITunes proxy authorisation window does not appear (and account is being blocked randomly)

Many users have iTunes installed on their PC. iTunes requires proxy authorization to connect to internet. Appropriate popup window appears when opening iTunes and trying to open some internet-based page there. Entering current AD account credentials helps to connect. There is also a checkmark there allowinf to save credentials for further use (and do not show this window anymore). When AD password is changed - this popup window does not appear again and user's account is being blocked (because iTunes tries to connect proxy with old credentials). The question is: is it possible to reset proxy settings, stored somewhere inside iTunes somehow? Just to return proxy authorization window back. Did you have such an experience? If you caould share any knowledge - it would be great.

Problem with external CD player being disabled by itunes installation

Hi,
I'd be grateful if anyone can help with my situation:
- Have got home with black shiny ipod nano.
- it's my first: have never had an ipod or mp3 before
- I'm a neandrathal as far as anything IT - related goes.
- Have followed the instructions and installed itunes. Had hiccups but got there.
- Now .. .. .. I have a problem.
- After the installation, my computer will not recognise nor allow me to use my external CD / DVD ROM. (I have a Dell latitude with an external CD connected by a cable).
- After digging, I find that the drivers for the CD are not working.
- I've uninstalled those drivers and reinstalled them and still I can't use my CD player. Under 'My computer' I can't even see my CD player under the D drive.
- I know it should be working because .. .. .. if I boot up my computer with the CD disconnected, my computer then recognises the new hardware when I connect it.
- However, after recognising it wants me to restart the computer. After the restart .. .. hey presto .. .. the cd isn't "there" and I can't use it.
- This was all fine before itunes (and the other installation) was installed, so I know it's related to my new ipod.
Can anyone help ?
Am keen to play with my new toy.
Many thanks,
vaccav

Thanks for the reply.
I'm afraid I've already tried re-installing itunes and re-installing the drivers. Even after reinstalling the drivers, I am still getting an 'error 31' message. Upon tracking that down, it advices that it is because the drivers aren't working.
I am pretty sure the problem is related to the installation of itunes and my new ipod. I've had the cd player (it came wiht the the computer) for a long time. The only time it has stopped working was immediately after the itunes installation.
If you have any other ideas to try, I would be very grateful.
Many thanks,

During a error updating, I had to reinstall iTunes. When proceeding to install iTunes, the installer chooses M:// I dont have a M drive, I click change and the iTunes installer crashes. I've tried everything, help!

Seriously no idea whats going on, and I'm usually pretty good with figuring an issue
Heres the isse:
When updating iTunes, after the restart I booted up iTunes and it crashed. I was prompted with iTunes had been updated incorrectly and to uninstall and reinstall iTunes. After downloading the installer from itunes.ca. I opened up the application, and clicked Next. Under the directory it says M Drive, I dont have an M drive at all, I click change and a prompt pops that says, "The volume M:/ is currently unavailable. Please select another." with "ok" being the only selection.
After hitting ok, it says "itunes installer completed" "Errors occured during installation before iTunes could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To complete the installation, run the installer again. Click Finish to exit the installer." Finish is the only selectable, and upon restarting the installer the same thing happens. I hope theres someone who can help me out with this.

Hello Fix88,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with installing iTunes. I found a couple of resources that I think will help with this.
I recommend reviewing the following articles:

Where can I download a full iTunes installation file?

I need to install iTunes on a Windows 7 computer where the iTunes site is blocked. This means running the usual setup.exe won't work because that then tries to download the rest of the iTunes installation files - and that's not going to happen.
A few years ago, I managed to find a full installation file (80-90MB) and did this successfully - but can't seem to find one now.
Anyone know a link where the full installation file is available ?
regards
Ian

Is iTunes critical to iPhone function? iTunes install is blocked by lack of CoreMedia.dll.

Is iTunes critical to iPhone function? iTunes install is blocked by lack of CoreMedia.dll.

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, does your device connect without that message now??
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

ITunes installation errors and Apple Mobile Device Errors

First I will explain how I got to where I am now. I had the an iTunes 7 version, don't know the specific, and I have an ipod touch. I had been ignoring the iTunes 8 upgradge things upon open of iTunes, cause i had absolutely no need for it and syncing music to my ipod was still working, and i dont care for itunes besides being able to use my ipod. Then the iphone os 3.0 came out and i wanted to download/pay for it, and when i attempted to do this i was promptly instructed that I needed iTunes 8. I closed itunes and reopened so i could just tell the prompt that i wanted to upgrade, then bonjour opened and i selected the itunes/quicktime package, it gave me an error saying i needed to download manually, so i turned off automatic install. I then downloaded again, it opened a folder with iTunes.msi among other things, I double clicked itunes.msi and it proceeded to install. I then had iTunes 8 installed, opened it up, and with my ipod touch connected, it told me I needed upgraded apple mobile device and i had to uninstall both apple mobile device and itunes to do this. so i uninstall itunes through add/remove programs, and attempted to uninstall apple mobile device and everytime i did this it would not complete and gave me "Fatal Error" prompt. I then tried to reinstall iTunes and it would not install, kept giving me an error and told me to try again. I searched google for answers and the best anyone could say was delete missing files and try again, so i can CCleaner and got rid of registrys etc, and still would not allow me to uninstall apple mobile device. i reinstalled itunes and it actually worked this time, and then i plug in my ipod touch and it tells me i need the upgraded apple mobile device again, and that i need to uninstall apple mobile device and itunes to do this. If i could get rid of apple mobile device altogether maybe i wouldnt have this problem, but it simply wont let me. Any help with this? and sorry this was so long, i figured someone would need to know what happened to know how to fix it.

It sounds as though using the Microsoft Installer cleanup utility is worth a go.
I will give you a method for removal of iTunes and related programs with clean up, I think you have already done the removal, but just in case you missed anything out.
==
Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Save the files on your PC.
Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program. The installer doesn't give any message to confirm the installation.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
(To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install)
Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
*If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
Restart your PC.
Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
restart your PC
Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
If it does, install iTunes.

ITunes installation probs with anti-virus software?

After installing iTunes 5.0.1, my iTunes either will not run or it crashes. Also, my iPod now no longer works. It shows nothing but a folder and exclamation point, and iPod Updater does not recognize the iPod and therefore will not allow me to restore it to factory settings.
Are these problems related to the incompatibility of the iTunes installer with anti-virus software? If so, can anyone suggest a fix for someone using Norton 2005 Internet Security? I tried to use the following 3-step program for addressing this problem at
Lisa Bissell, "ITunes won't work" #4, 09:12pm Sep 28, 2005 CDT
1. Open Norton 2005 Internet Security, click on Personal Firewall, click Configure button, click Programs tab.
2. Uncheck the Turn on Automatic Program Control box. In the Program window find itunes and change the Automatic setting to Permit All.
3. Close Norton and restart Windows. itunes should work correctly after that.
However, my iTunes is not found on Nortons Program window. When I click on Add and then click on iTunes, the Norton program crashes. Suggestions?
By the way, I am on week 2 of trying to untangle all of the problems created by the iTunes 5.0.1 installation. I have already implemented the suggestions on the following four sites without success.

Any help getting my iTunes and iPod back in operation would be much appreciated.

Ok, b, I'm now on week 3 of trying to get my iTunes and iPod back and wonder if I am any closer to resolution.
I have tried all three of the sets of recommendations in the links you provided without success. Specifically:
I've once again reinstalled iTunes (I now have version 6) and deleted all of the suggested Temp files etc.
I've put my iPod into disk mode and tried to restore it. iPod updater still does not recognize my iPod. Nor does iTunes or Windows (My Computer). In contrast, Windows recognizes my son's iPod mini, but iTunes does not.
I have run the System Config utility and selected iTunes Helper as the only the startup and iPod Service as the only service. When I restarted my computer, I had no better luck with my iTunes or iPod Updater. In fact, things got worse since I could no longer connect with the internet. So I went back to the old startup method and full range of services.
I tried to go into Disk Management to change the letter of the network drive, but either Disk Mgmt wouldn't open or, when it did, I didn't see my iPod listed.
I am also still having occasional difficulties launching iTunes, and having some difficulties using a hard reset to get my iPod off of its "Do Not Disconnect" message. (To accomplish the latter, I often am forced to try 3 or 4 times holding the Select and Menu buttons for 10 plus seconds at a time.) My iPod does nothing more than rotate between Do Not Disconnect and the sad icon.
I would consider replacing my iPod, except that it is apparent that my problems are being generated by iTunes, considering that my son's iPod is also having problems when I attempt to synch it to iTunes, and it otherwise works fine.
If you could help me get out of this mess, I would be eternally grateful.

The problem I have is that it wants me to uninstall all itunes and related software then reboot and download itunes installer. If I do this will I loose all music and movies form my Itunes library?

Under normal circumstances, an uninstall/reinstall doesn't touch your content. (That being said, it's still always a good idea to maintain a current backup at all times in case of disasters of any sort.)

Problems with iTunes installation

Hello,
I am having problems with installing iTunes 10.4. I am running an Acer Aspire M1640 running Windows Vista (32) v 6.0.6002 SP2 and updated.
When trying to update my old version of iTunes I got the following error
"Bonjour: The feature that you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK or enter an alternate pathway to a folder containing the installation package 'Bonjour msi' in the box below."
When I tried OK I got a repeat of the error and when I tried "Browse" this produced an unintelligble list of files.
I then went to the Apple iTunes installation problems and followed the instructions there.
Firstly I managed to delete the majority of the files in the Tenp folder and then uninstalled the old iTunes and made sure that Windows was updated.
I tried downloading a new version of iTunes from the Apple download site but on attempting to install it I ended up with the same error.
Can anybody out there offer any help with this as I am currently without my iTunes

Hi again,
I have just posted an answer to my problem on a "more like this" discussion that I found on Apple Support Communities. So far I have managed to install iTunes and QuickTime in the way b noir suggests on this post.
It is early days but so far so good.
Uninstalling iTunes/Quicktime "The feature you are trying to use is on..."

ITunes installer installs wrong folder.

Installer installs iTunes.msi in folder IXP729.TMP in Local Settings/Temp on XP SP3 English, then complains it can't find Local Settings/IXP694.TMP/iTunes.msi, which doesn't exist. I navigate to iTunes.msi in the folder it just created, IXP729.TMP but it comes up with some sort of error, then when the installer cancels it deletes that folder. I tried copying the folder while it did exist, then running iTunes.msi directly from it, but it still stops with the same error, that it can't find the non-existant folder. This is a continuing problem--I tried updating to the previous version a couple of months ago and the same thing happened. Plus, the installer and errors are in Japanese, although my OS is English and I selected to install the program in English in a stage of installation before the problem.
Any suggestions?

Thanks, turingtest2. That didn't work, but it helped. You made me realize I had the problem backwards--the new installer wasn't looking for something it had just created and misplaced, it was looking for the previous installer, which had been deleted (if the error message had been in English I'd have been able to read it). MS Program Install and Uninstall Utility also didn't work--gave the exact same error message, that it couldn't find the previous iTunes.msi installer, so it couldn't uninstall the previous version. Once I knew the problem, I found the solution online--Microsoft's old Windows Installer CleanUp Utility, which they discontinued but is still available at Major Geeks. Used that to uninstall the old (along with all the obvious ancillary files, plus bonjour and quicktime), deleted the program folders from Program Files, rebooted, then the iTunes installer worked (oddly, it even kept my old settings and playlists somehow).
If anyone at Apple is reading this, PLEASE give us the option to choose the language of the installer we download. I went to the English apple.com site and entered my country as USA, but because I'm in Japan at the moment the installer was in Japanese.
