Itunes rolling back on latest installation...

i would just like one question answered....why does the installation roll back? It says that itunes requires quicktime...and yet..it claims that quicktime is included in the installation...and also i already downloaded quicktime from apple.com SEPERATELY. Whats going on?

This problem was driving me CRAZY but I fixed it.
1. Vista's fault for horrible permissions
2. Apple's fault for a horrible installer that rollsback with NO F#$# ERROR MESSAGE!
The problem is that iTune's installer cannot do it's job because it cannot delete or edit a file or directory. It would be great if it told you what file is causing you the trouble but it doesn't.
But there is a way to get that stupid installer to talk.
Run iTunes from the command line. Here my iTunes is in F:\downloads and I'm telling it to write a log file to F:\downloads\ituneslog.txt
F:\downloads>iTunesSetup.exe /l*v F:\downloads\ituneslog.txt
Open the error log in a text editor and search for words like error or problem or fail. You'll probably find some file or directory it cannot copy or edit.
Find the problem file. Right-click - properties - security make sure Administrators have "Full Control." (I'm assuming you are an Administrator on your computer)
If that fails add your user name to the list and give yourself full control.
If that still fails go to safe mode and try to delete the file.
retry the installer. Rinse and repeat until all your problems go away.
I hope this helps someone.

Itunes rolls back install

Hi,Whenever I try to install Itunes 8 the setup rolls back close to then end and it shows the setup completed window and says a problem was encountered during the install I'm running Windows vista home premium 64 bit, does anyone have an idea of what the problem could be any solutions would be appreciated, thanks.

When I install itunes on my XP sp3 system I get a network error while reading from itunes.msi.
Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Acrobat Pro 10 will not install keeps rolling back

I am attempting to install Adobe Acrobat X on a Windows 7 64 Bit machine, it will not install, gets all the way to the end and then just starts rolling back says the installation was interrupted and that no changes were made to the system.
I ran the msi from the command line with verbose logging on to see if I could figure out where it fails but couldn't find the error (towards the end it lists many errors but it seems to just be a list of possible errors, not sure but I definately have admin right and ran the msi as an admin so at least those two don't make sense).
I don't understand why its not installing but I'm really ticked its not at least telling me why its not installing. I had adobe reader and flash on the computer and I was afraid they might be newer versions than just straight Pro X so I uninstalled everything adobe on the computer and it still won't install the Pro X.
Can someone take a look at my log file and see if they can tell what I'm doing wrong? It would be very appreciated.
Thanks, SW.

One thought. Have you tried downloading the updates (http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows) and installing directly, rather than doing updates through the help menu?

Need to roll back to 3.6 from 4 RC1

Is there an easy way to uninstall Firefox 4 RC1 while rolling back to latest current stable release on Windows XP?

Intallation is being rolled back post deploying the SP1

Trying to deploy SP1 across all win 7 systems. It's being successfully installed when PCs are not in domain but for Domain joined system it's being rolled back post initial installation and reboot. Please help me do get rid of this issue.

Hello Tech Olive,
What do you mean of the sentence ‘for Domain joined system it's being rolled back post initial installation and reboot’? the domain-joined systems keep roll back to install the Windows 7 service package 1?
How do you deploy the Windows 7 service package 1?
Do you receive any error messages in the domain-joined Windows 7?
Please take the following steps for troubleshooting:
1. Check if we can install the Service Package manually.
2. As you mentioned that only domain-joined computer can't normally install the Windows 7 service package 1. I think it is related to domain setting. Please confirm with the domain administrator to check if there are group policy or setting to block the
installation

Hi,
You must foloow these steps:
1 - Uninstall iTunes and (if it is possible) Quicktime
2 - You must download the Windows Inatll Clean Up utility from Microsoft
3 - Using this tool you must remove iTunes and Quicktime only
4 - Reboot your computer and install iTunes again
Must work...

Itunes 64 bit on windows 7 is unable to install, i have the 64 bit installer version but it keeps saying "errors occurred" at the ( rolling back ) phase. HELP!

itunes 64 bit on windows 7 is unable to install, i have the 64 bit installer version but it keeps saying "errors occurred" at the ( rolling back ) phase. HELP!!!

I have the answer and this might be useful for any one else wondering about this in the future. If it helped you or explained what you wanted to know. Replay to the post pls
It's quite easy actually. First have your "iTunes Library Extras", "iTunes Library Genius", "iTunes Library", and "iTunes Music Library" backed up. Download ans install iTunes 64-bit. I don't know what's so 64-bit about iTunes 64 since Win7 reports it as a 32-bit application in the task manager. But anyway. Install iTunes 64 and launch it. If you migrated your library to another drive like me go to settings in iTunes and change the directory to your location. Close iTunes. Replace the newly created files with your backed up files. Launch iTunes. iTunes will load and then update your library and from there you are set to go! so basically it is just like a normal upgrade. But if you hesitated to go from 32 to 64 like me, here is your answer.
By the way. I'm using Windows 7 64-bit with iTunes 64-bit and it works without problems and syncing with my iPod Touch also works flawlessly.

Cannot install itunes for windows 7 (64), repeatedly get "Roll back" and told to reinstall, but this does not work. Tried the latest ITunes 11 for 64. Same problem. I have an ipad which works OK. HELP

TS3212 Itunes 10.7 Rolls back installation after attempting to install on Windows Vista 64bit.

I downloaded the version in this link, presumably for Vista 64:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1577 . It goes through the process but rolls back the installaion and reports "error in installation". I turned off kaspersky Suite but got the sam emessage. Any ideas?

To clarify, I already have iTunes 10.6. Also, I just checked back on the iTunes installer (the manual one) and it now says: "iTunes Installer Completed
The installer encountered errors before iTuens could be configured.
Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified.
Please run the installer again, or click Finish to exit."

HT1926 itunes installation rolls back in windows 7

Hi,
Try to install acrobat pro using this command : msiexec /i acropro.msi IGNOREAAM=1 /qb
on the location where the MSI file is located.
ex. if the installer is in acrobat folder on C drive then you need to direct the command on the command prompt window to c:\acrobat
Hope this helps!

HT202157 Does anyone else have a problem with the latest Apple TV update? My Apple TV no longer can load movies from my iTunes library, including ones I've already watched or were watching. Can I roll back this update, and if so, how?

After updating my Apple TV, it will no longer load movies from my iTunes library. Music works, but no movies. I've turned this puppy every which way but loose, but no joy. Is there a way to roll back an update?

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.
