ITunes says it doesn't have sufficient priveleges to overwrite file

I'm an admin on my machine and I'm trying to install the iTunes upgrade. Why in the world would iTunes report that it can't install because I don't have sufficient priveleges to modify some java files. I even tried to run the installer and explicitly do a "run as admin" and still no luck. This is clearly a bug. what is up with it?

+The installer has insufficient priveleges to modify this file: C:\Program Files\Jave\jre1.6.0_1\lib\ext\QTJava.zip+
Interesting. Assuming that that is a QuickTime-related java file, it seems to make sense that under some circumstances it might cause a snarl with an iTunes/QuickTime install.
Do your iTunes and QuickTime still run if you reinstall your Java (if you need it) now that iTunes and QuickTime are still installed?

    I have version 6.0. I downloaded the latest version. When I move the icon to the applications folder I get a message asking if I wish to replace the older version. When I say yes, I get a message saying I don't have "sufficient privileges for some of the items."

  • Cannot download current firefox version because it says I do not have sufficient priveleges. What does that mean and how do I fix it.

    I keep trying to download newest version of Firefox but when I try to move it into applications I get the error message that I cannot do this because "I do not have sufficient privelelges" and then I can go no further. I do not know any more.
    The educatd guesses below are correct.

    This happens on my other Mac as well

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop

  • HT201628 I can't get the new version of iTunes to download, I keep getting a dialog box that "Apple Mobile Device" failed to start and asks me to verify that I have sufficient priveleges. How do I fix this?

    I tried to install the new version of iTunes days ago. It seems like it's going to install and then it comes up with a dialog box that says "Apple Mobile Device" failed to start and to verify I have sufficient priveleges. I don't know what I need to do to get it to install.

    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.

  • Itunes download says I don't have sufficient admin to make changes to computer yet I am logged in as admin

    Trying to download itunes software to my PC, error message comes up saying I don't have sufficient admin to make changes to computer, I am looged in as admin? windows7 64bit

    Try this. Go to the location where you downloaded the itunes installer file on your computer. Right click on the file and choose "Run as Administrator". See if it will let you complete the installation when you do this. Hope that helps.

  • I get message saying system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation; when trying to uninstall message says you do not have sufficient access to uninstall itunes please contact your administrator.  i am administrator.

    when intalling itunes i get message saying system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation; when trying to uninstall message says you do not have sufficient access to uninstall itunes please contact your administrator.  i am the dministrator.

    Windows right?
    Likely your not the administor any more, the botnet is.
    Check on this site really quick if your part of a botnet
    http://botnetchecker.com/
    All clear? Hopefully. Backup your files to a external drive, cd or dvd, USB keye etc off your computer.
    Run the sfx file on this site and it will burn to a cd.
    http://www.avira.com/en/support-download-avira-antivir-rescue-system
    Next hit your BIO's key and set the cd to boot first, run the scanner and see what it pops up.
    If your all clear then create another Admin, transfer your files over from the first Admin.
    See if that works, eventually when your totally over to the new Admin, delete the old one.
    If you can't create a new Admin, find out who locked your machine down, like your parents or it's a school computer?
    Likely installed spyware or "nanyware" to watch you.
    Hope that works.

  • The New Itunes says I don't have permission to make changes. All I want to do is add stuff to my Itunes. What can I do?

    The new Itunes says I don't have permission to make changes when all I want to do is add files to my itunes library.
    What can I do?

    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. 
    Regards
    TD 

  • I have a Verizon IPhone 4 and i can't figure out how to get my ringtones from an app to my iTunes account, it doesn't have a tab for Ringtones! I have tried unplugging it and checking if would show up but it didn't, how do you enable the ringtone folder?

    I have a verizon IPhone and i can't figure out how to get my ringtones from the app to iTunes, my account doesn't have a ringtone section in the liRingtone Folder?brary, how do you enable the ringtone folder?

    Edit > Preferences.  Select the check box for Ringtones, this will add them to the listing in iTunes. 
    Not sure that really answers your question though.

  • Event 1053 ActiveSync doesn't have sufficient permissions to create

    Hello all and thanks in advance.
    Exchange 2007 to 2013 co-existence.  All email now routed (proxies) through 2013 server.  For everyone, Outlook functional, OWA functional and for everyone else on the old server, EAS is functional.  I only have three clients on the new server. 
    Outlook and OWA are functional, EAS is not.  Two of those accounts get the following message on the 2013 server:
    Exchange ActiveSync doesn't have sufficient permissions to create the "CN=Name\, User,OU=Users-IT,DC=HALFF,DC=AD" container under Active Directory user "Active Directory operation failed on SRV05.HALFF.AD. This error is not retriable.
    Additional information: Access is denied.
    Active directory response: 00000005: SecErr: DSID-031521D0, problem 4003 (INSUFF_ACCESS_RIGHTS), data 0".
    Make sure the user has inherited permission granted to domain\Exchange Servers to allow List, Create child, Delete child of object type "msExchangeActiveSyncDevices" and doesn't have any deny permissions that block such operations.
    These two accounts are also part of several 'protected' security groups such as domain admins and or enterprise admins.  I've seen this KB: http://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2579075
    One of these accounts is mine.  Security for my user object is NOT inherited.  I went to make the change in the article and it said 77 items were going to be changed.  "Warning.  The change you are about to make will result in 77 permissions
    being added to the access control list"
    Is this normal for AD objects that are part of protected groups?  What is the best way to get through this?
    Thanks,
    Willis
