ITunes Installation Problem (it won't install!)

I'm trying to install iTunes onto my computer, and I'm getting through all of the steps until the step "Installation Type." At that step iTunes is greyed out and the action is "skip." It will not let me select it, and then when I try to move forward and install it says "You cannot continue. There is nothing to install."
Please help me.
Thanks.

Hi Sheparro, I might have good news for you. Had EXACTLY the same problem. My iTunes (7.0.1) was cutting off when playing CDs, so I decided to reinstall it. Deleted all iTunes related files (via spotlight), then attempted to install the downloaded 7.x version afresh. No way. Tried the original iLife disc, still no way; gave the same reply as you got. Then I fished for more itunes files on my system and found three in the Receipts folder (located within the Library folder): itunesX.pkg, itunesphonedriver.pkg, itunesx.pkg. I moved these to the trash and then tried installing from the iLife CD again. Presto! It worked! Its the 6.0.2 version, but no problem. I suspect the upgrade (7.x) has some unfixed bugs. Good luck!

I am not able to install 9.0.2 on my Mac Pro. I have tracked it down to the "AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg", which returns an error when updating the system extension configuration.

No need to apologise.
Okay ... it sounds like they've taken you all the way through the following document:
[Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926]
... so we'll try something different.
"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."
In recent times, I've seen a couple of cases of that message caused on Vista boxes, when the user account that the person was doing the install from inside lacked correct permissions on their C:\Program Files\ folder. They got similar symptoms to you ... some things installed, some things didn't. (It seems to differ from PC to PC precisely what ends up happening.)
So, go "Start > Computer". In "Computer", open your C drive (or whichever drive your Program files are stored on). Right-click "Program Files", and select "Properties". Click the "Security" tab.
Select the name of your User account in the list. Does that account have full control over the folder? If not, grant yourself full control.
After the Tab has done its thing, okay out, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

ITunes 8.1.1 won't install

Okay I just downloaded iTunes 8.1.1 on my Windows PC and it won't install the update.
Here's what happens I go through the steps of installing the update -- the welcome screen provides info on what iTunes helps you do (work with iPod, iPhone, Apple TV etc and burning and importing audio CDs, plus buying songs from iTunes and video) then asks you to press next, next screen asks if you accept license agreement, select yes and click next. Next screen asks what language you want iTunes installed in (English US) and what location for me its C/Program Files/iTunes
Then press next and on the next screen it will install -- next screen shows up and then jumps directly to the iTunes has installed screen without doing so.
"Says iTunes Installer Completed"
"The installer encounted errors before iTunes could be configured.
Your system has not been modified. To retry these operations at a later time please return to the installer again. Click Finish to exit installer."
I have tried using both Apple Software Update which tells me iTunes + QuickTime could not be verified when the installation error occurs and the manual installation by downloading the file and launching it. Any ideas on
what's causing this?

Lots of times this is due to QuickTime not installing properly. iTunes depends on QT to play audio & video.
Try installing QT standalone, first. Make sure you pick the option withOUT itunes.http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
Choose SAVE, not run. Double-click the saved exe file to start the install.
If QT installs OK, and you can get it to open and run, then try the itunes install again.
Use this link and again, choose SAVE, not run.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you get errors during the QT install, post back.

Satellite L875D-S7230 Sound problems / drivers won't install

I've run a PC tech support service for over 10 years so I've tried all the standard fixes to no avail.
Main problem was after I started using my laptop with an HDMI cable to a projector -- the audio and video worked fine via HDMI, but when I disconnected the HDMI cable the laptop had no audio, and had a red x on the audio symbol in the system tray. Device manager only showed AMD High Definition Audio Device. Under Playback devices via the Sound icon (yes Disabled and Disconnected Devices are both checked) it only shows the AMD High Def device. When I reconnect the HDMI, the audio works fine. Once I thought that not properly "ejecting" the HDMI cable could be the problem, so I used Windows + P to show the Projector menu and selected Computer Only to disconnect the HDMI and then removed the cable and then the laptop audio worked, but that happened several weeks ago, and now after using HDMI again, it's back to no audio. I've reinstalled the HDMI audio, but in trying to reinstall the Realtek Audio Drivers shown on the Support page for my model, they won't install - they extract and then when I click to install, the install stops with no error warning, etc. The same with the AMD Display driver (which is supposed to contain the chipset drivers). I've been through this two hours troubleshooting process twice over the past 6 months and I am done. Any suggestions are appreciated. Here's the support page:

Hello , Welcome to the HP Forums, and thanks for posting! I understand you are having some issues re-installing the software for your HP LaserJet Pro M177fw Printer. I'd like to help you with this. First, I would recommend checking your programs to make sure there isn't anything listed for the LaserJet that wasn't uninstalled: Swipe inwards from the right hand side of the desktop (or press Win key + C on the keyboard). The charms bar will pop up on the right hand side of the screen.Select Settings, then Control Panel.Select Programs, then Uninstall a program.Check the list for any software indicating the printer model (select the software and click uninstall if necessary).You'll also want to make sure you have removed all instances of the printer from your devices and printers folder: Follow steps 1 and 2 above to open the Control Panel.Under Hardware and Sound, select Devices and Printers.If you see any icons for your printer, right click and select delete (or remove device).Now let's do a cleanboot of your computer (to make sure another program that is running is not interfering with your installation). You can find the steps to perform a clean boot in this Microsoft document - How to perform a clean boot in Windows Once all of this is complete, run the software install again. Please respond to let me know if we have resolved the issue!Good luck.

ITunes Installation Problems!

I have tried several times to re-install iTunes over the past several weeks. The problem seemed to start when I move the iTunes folder to another external drive. (Due to disk space.) Since that time I've been unable to uninstall and re-install the software.
The QuickTime software seemed to be the problem at first but is working fine now.
The error messages I get now are: "Error 1714. The older version of iTunes can't be removed. Contact your technical support group."
Which is then followed by another error message: "Error: -1603 Fatal error during installation. Consult Windows Installer Help (Msi.chm)or MSDN for more information."
I can't seem to find a solution to this problem, which means my iPods can't be updated on the computer that I prefer to use.
Please Advise!

okay, let's try enlisting some additional technical help:
let's try getting a installer log to someone who can interpret installer logs.
Start menu -> Run... In the text field of the dialog that comes up, type in "cmd" and hit return.
In the command prompt dialog that comes up, find the iTunes installer on your desktop and drag it to this window. Then on the same line type in a space and then the following:
/Verbose"c:\log.txt" /V"ENABLE_QTLOGGING=TRUE"
There is no space between the e in Verbose and the double quote ("). There is no space between the V"Enable...
Hit return.
The installer will create two log files:
C:\log.txt and C:\qt.log
Find those files and send them to this email address Put the URL to this discussion thread into the email, so that the person who gets it has some context. Let them know the version of itunes you’re trying to install, too … in general, give as much info as you can.
love, b

Win XP iTunes installation problems

Please please help!
I've tried everything and I'm going to start pulling out my hair shortly!
I've just purchased an iPod Touch for me and a nano for my girlfriend - but we can't use them as iTunes won't install.
I've installed iTunes as per normal - it created a shortcut on my desk top but then when clicking on it for the first time it pops up the following message:
*iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close.*
*We are sorry for the inconvenience.*
This message has the Send Error Report option, which I click - it takes me to Microsofts Error reporting page which gives me the following details:
*Download updates for iTunes*
*This problem was caused by iTunes. iTunes was created by Apple Inc..*
Solution
*A newer version of iTunes is available for download that will address this problem. Apple Inc. recommends updating to the latest version of iTunes to take advantage of security and stability improvements.*
This information is incorrect. I have iTunes 7.5.
I cannot justify the fact that I can't use these two new toys because Apples software won't install .
Please help me! Back at work tomorrow and the commute minus music will be hellish.
Jamie

I have done a system restore as I think I ruined something prior to this original question.. I now have the classic error:
*The folder iTunes cannot be found or created*
I had previously tried other forums to help fix my issue but alas the problem I previously had happened.
Thus I am back at The iTunes folder problem.
could someone please point me toward a quick solution?
Thanks!!!

Downloaded the installer, but it won't install

Okay, after many (MANY) tries I finally managed to download the itunes program. I have dial up, and I was continuously disconnected while downloading, so I ended up taking my handy-dandy memory stick to a friend's and downloaded the entire 35.1 MB files in 20 minutes. However, once I loaded it onto my own computer at home, I am unable to run the program. I click, nothing happens. I go to Add/Remove programs, try to do it that way, it finds the programming, but then does NOTHING. I've made sure that I am logged on as owner/administrator, tried so many other tricks I can't remember them all, what else can I do?

Strange iTunes Installer Problem, Need Serious Help

I just recently had no choice but to do a destructive recovery of my pc. I am now re-downloading all of my old software and I got to iTunes. I can download the installer just fine. But when I try to run the installer, after opening it and clicking run, I get the hour glass for about 40 seconds, then I get "iTunes Installer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." iTunes is a necessity for me, so can someone please help me?

But when I try to run the installer, after opening it and clicking run, I get the hour glass for about 40 seconds, then I get "iTunes Installer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
Yes, that's quite a rare one conor. It seems to be associated with "silent" installer failures, and the "invalid signature" and "unknown publisher" error messages. In those cases, most often the installers seem to have been getting damaged during the download to the PC.
Checking on simpler possibilities first. Have you been downloading the installer from the Apple website?
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If so, does it make any difference if you do the download with (say) Firefox rather than IE (or vice versa)?

I have tried uninstalling iTunes and all traces of it, and re-installing it, but keep getting an error msg that says "Problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required could not be run." I even tried a previous version of iTunes (10.1) and got the same error.
Can anyone help with this?

I had the same problem with updating my itunes. I spent hours trying to figure out how to fix it
After updating my windows 7 and fixing all the "corrupt" files, what seems to finally work for me was this
Go to add or remove programs in the control panel, on Windows 7, just go to start, control panel, and then uninstall a program. Find Apple Software Update on the list, and click on repair. Once that is done, try to download iTunes again and it should work.
