ITunes lost from failed iTunes update

Attempted an Apple iTunes update yesterday as prompted.  It failed and left error messages:  Microsoft Visual C+ + Runtime Library    Runtime Error!  Program:  C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.exe   R6034  An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.  Please contact the application's support team for more information.     OK
Then another box appears over that and says  iTunes was not installed properly.  Please reinstall iTunes    Error 7 (Windows error 1114)
***Please forgive my ignorance, but if I uninstall iTunes and then  reinstall  iTunes, what happens to my library of music, podcasts, etc. ????  Will they just get shuffled into the reinstalled version? *****
Also, who and where are the "application's support team" mentioned in the first error box?
I use Windows Vista 
(I use the "cloud" and I have Carbonite backup)

Thank you so very much.  I read the full recent post on this subject by  turingtest2  and clicked on and printed out  the apple support page highlighted "Removing and reinstalling iTunes for .... Windows Vista" and carefully followed the complete instructions.  After a few nail-bitting minutes, it all worked and the new iTunes was installed and all my stuff is BACK!!!!
How great to have each of your responses and help.  Thanks again.

    In the past, when I updated iTunes, some items would be 'lost'. I quit updating, still running 10.6. I do keep my files on an external hard drive, which I plug in before starting iTunes. If I leave the drive off, and update, would that keep me from losing any files? Also, does anyone know how to search the iTunes store by price? I'm particularly interested in movies and audiobooks... Thanks

    iTunes does not have provision for automatically storing one kind of media on a separate drive, so you have some basic decisions to make first.  Do you want these movies to still appear in your iTunes library, or are you content with browsing filenames on a drive in Finder when you want to look for one?  The second's the easiest thing because then you don't have to have an external drive permanently turned on and attached to your computer (wired or wireless).  To do that you literelly only need to drag your movies folder to an archive drive and delete movies from iTunes.  To watch them again you can add it back to iTunes while holding down the option key so the movie is used from its location on the external drive.
    There's ways to move the movies to an external drive while keeping them in iTunes but the external drive iwll always have to be turned on and connected to the computer or you will see a bunch of broken link exclamation marks.
    Realize what you are talking about is not "backup".  Backup (which you should do) is putting a second or more copy of items on external drives for the day when your internal drive fails and everything on it is lost, inclduing all your home photos and perhaps things that have been pulled from the iTunes Store and can no longer be re-downloaded.

  • I ran an iTunes update.  It failed with the message  System Error.  The program can't start because MSVCR80.DLL is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.   I tried reinstalling but get the same message.

    I ran an iTunes update.  It failed with the message  "System Error.  The program can't start because MSVCR80.DLL is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."   I tried reinstalling but get the same message.  I looked in my Recycle Bin for that file name but there is none there.  Is this a new file that iTunes wants?

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

    My iTunes update install failed. Error message says MSVCR80.dll is missing from my comuputer. What is that and where do I get it?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • Itunes update failed on 2 computers, couldn't find msvcr80.dll files.Now have no itunes at all

    iTunes update failed on both computers. Couldn't find msvcr80.dll, now I have no iTunes at all. Is it iTunes or the computers?

    I did NOT move the other folders (Album Artwork, Mobile Applications, Playlists, Previous iTunes Libraries) or files (iTunes Library, iTunes Library Extras, iTunes Library Genius, iTunes Music Library) that are located inside the Music/iTunes folders.
    should be no problem. i'm doing this also.
    Everything was working fine on both computers - Consolidated the library on the external drive and did the Change the location of the iTunes Media folder in Preferences on both computers, no problem.
    However I added two movies and a few songs to my desktop Mac yesterday - all showed up and played fine after adding them - but when I plug the external drive into my laptop, the new additions don't appear in the library.
    if you're purchasing content from the iTMS, you could use _*Home Sharing*_ to automatically add new content to all machines on your local network.
    Am I right in guessing that it is because the iTunes Library file on the laptop isn't the same as the one on the desktop computer?
    yes.
    Is there a way to add them to the library listing on the laptop? If yes, is that something I need to do every time I connect the external drive to the laptop if I've added things from the desktop computer (I never add stuff on the laptop).
    basically, yes. however, there's _*Home Sharing*_ and ... see below.
    Should I have put the entire iTunes folder - files, folder and media - onto the external drive?
    that's one possibility, however, only one Mac @ a time could access that library. there are other options:
    *the easy way*
    check out TuneRanger.
    *the more involved way*

  • ITunes update always fails on Windows 7 x64

    I have had this problem for over a year on my Windows 7 64-bit system.  Whenever there is a new version of iTunes, I try and update using the iTunes Software Update notification that pops up.  This always fails to install.  I am then forced to uninstall it fully and re-install using the directions located here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    The above works but is a major hassle.  I don't understand why this keeps happening and have looked for solutions here and elsewhere.  Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    I have had this problem on my x64 Win7 machine for as long as I can remember.  I may however have found a solution.  I recently added another User Account (non-admin) to my machine so my wife could use it too.  Whilst logged in her account today iTunes popped up with an update.  I had tried this update (10.6.3.25) on my windows account a couple of times with it failing each time.  I had decided I could no longer be bothered going through the full uninstall/reinstall process again and wasn't going to bother. 
    For some reason though I thought I'd give it a go on my wife's windows login. It worked just fine.......
    So my suggestion is to create another Windows User Account and see if you can update iTunes from that account instead.  It's the first time in at least 18 months that iTunes update has worked properly.

  • Failed iTunes update - now I can't open iTunes at all

    iTunes update on Windows 7 failed - laptop was accidentally shut down.  Now I can't open iTunes - I get these messages:
    Runtime Error!
    Program:C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exe
    R6034
    An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.
    Please contact the application's support team for more information.
    and when I OK that there is a following message:
    iTunes was not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes.
    Error 7 (Windows error 1114)
    Unfortunately, for some reason my laptop will not allow me to uninstall iTunes (erroneously says I don't have administrative authority).
    I've tried restoring the system to a date prior to the iTunes update but that hasn't worked either. 
    I'm not particularly computer savvy so is there anyone out there who can offer some advice please?

    Hi there,
    Earlier iTunes (and supporting applications) need to be completely uninstalled before you can install the new version. Here's the complete Apple info on this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    Mobile device application will most likely fail to uninstall, so you would need to visit its location(s) and manually delete the files THEN folder(s). The location of the folders is documented in this link from Apple.

    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • Latest iTunes update fails, Uninstall / Re-Install solution fails

    Hello All,
    Katrina, b noir ....
    Several days ago after the last iTunes update failed, crippling iTunes connection to the iTunes Store, I came to the support pages for answers.
    I started following the step by step instructions to uninstall and re-install iTunes 10.4.1.10, first hitch...Bonjour refused to go completely leaving stubborn files behind, I had to download LSPFIX.exe to finally clean its folder
    As instructed by the apple support article, orderly deleted all the other files and folders, used msicuu2.exe, restarted the PC, and using rar extracted the individual .MSIs to continue with standalone installations.
    Got two new errors, Apple Application Support will not install due to "A later version of Apple Application Support is already installed on this computer" and,
    Apple Mobile Device Support failed to install when the AMDS stalled and displayed a 1053 error,
    Tried to start the AMDS service many times without luck, I read somewhere that NETframework service pack 1.1 had resolved that 1053 error in the past...I am logged as admin on a Windows XP machine
    Most of what I did successfully was learned from reading the posts and answers to/from other members.
    I would really appreciate your assistance.
    Thanks and best regards.

    For some reason when I try to download iTunes from the Apple site the file is flagged as dangerous.
    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first 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?

  • IOS 6 ITunes Update Failed.

    I have updated my IPhone 4 with IOS 6 and now am trying to update my ITunes. I go through the process of the ITunes update and I eventually get to the point where I must install and restart ITunes to complete the update, but it tells me that the app "Software update" failed to close. When I try to Force Quit this app it is not on the list of open applications.
    Just wondering if anyone knows how to fix this or if I am just missing a huge step.
    Thanks

    First, turn off or disable all security software on your computer...anti-virus & firewalls. Then, turn your phone off & force it into recovery mode:
    Then, leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
