ITunes updater not working

I already have iTunes, and I've been using iTunes for about a year. When I opened iTunes today, it told me a newer version was avalible, so I clicked yes to install the new iTunes. It came up fine and went through all the normal operations, until it got to the part of the installation where it said "removing backup files". It stayed like that for (literally) 10 minutes. I tried to cancel the operation and restart the iTunes setup shortcut, but the original page won't cancel, and the new page won't cancel the installation. As of right now, I still have my iTunes library, but no iTunes program. I have no idea what to do! Did anyone else here run into that problem or at least install the new iTunes from a previous one?

You might of had antivirus running when you went to update it and it interfered with the install. Uninstall iunes AND quicktime, clean the installer files out by going here and rolling down to "Clean up iTunes installer files on the computer" http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
Now turn off/disable antivirus and download/install iTunes off the apple site http://www.apple.com/itunes/download

ITunes update not working due to Bonjour

I'm trying to install the latest update for iTunes, and I keep getting an error message saying something like "the feature you are trying to use is on a network..." (can't remember the rest) and basically it's asking me to choose another location that bonjour.msi is in. The folder is right, the program is there, and it's still not working. As a result, I can't finish the update, I can't access iTunes from my start menu or any icons (I literally have to right click an mp3, hit open with iTunes, and then have it open from there). My iPod is still syncing, but it's not even recognizing my iPhone because it also gives me an Apple Mobile Device Driver error, which I assume is connected to the Bonjour issue, but maybe it's not. HELP. I have already installed the latest version of Bonjour Print Services like I saw in a recent Bonjour thread, but that did nothing for me AT ALL. I'm getting very frustrated with the entire thing because I haven't deleted a thing or changed anything about my computer, and this update is making me beyond angry.

Me three....what's up with iTunes tonight, is there a server problem? Anyone called Apple???

Broke out of the box and itune update not working

Just got apple tv delivered today but it wasn't working out of the box... flashing white light..
So i connected it to itunes via micro usb and itunes won't restore it looks like the .dmg is missing..
This is really bad, surely apple have noticed the software update is missing???
Did this update work for anyone?

It's impossible to know how much work there is putting it back, it sounds simple but it might not be, it's been down a few days now, I suppose it depends on how much inconvenience it is to return it for another.

IPod Sync and iTunes update not working

I plugged my iPod (Touch 3g) into my laptop to sync with my iTunes library and was confronted with the following error message:
"iTunes was unable to load data class information from Sync Services. Reconnect or try later"
I thought I'd update my software to eliminate that as a source of the problem, but Apple Software Update gives me the following error message:
"The Apple Software Update server could not be found. Check your Internet settings and try again."
I've tried restarting my laptop, but both messages remain. I'm guessing the two messages are related to the same issue. Anyone else getting the same and/or have a possible solution?
Thanks!

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.

Perhaps check to see if you're accidentally running two different versions of iTunes. There's some information on troubleshooting that in the Opening iTunes section of the following document:

ITunes update - not working

I opened iTunes tonight and got a notification to update. I clicked ok to update and nothing happened. I tried to reopen iTunes and still nothing happened. I went to the iTunes site, got the downloaded and the install failed. I closed all my programs and tried to restart my MacBook pro (mid 2009 with new Samsung 1TB harddrive). The chime went off and I came to the default boot screen but instead of a normal boot I got a loading bar. Once the bar filled up all ingot was the apple logo and a spinning gear. After waiting a few minutes for my log in screen to show up, I held the power button down to start all over. Same process. Same result. Please can someone help me?

Quickly doublechecking, J. Did you get past that by updating using a .dmg installer downloaded from the Apple Website?

After doing a widows update itunes will not work at all

after doing a widows update itunes will not work at all

hiya!
I get the itunes has encounterd a problem and needs to close, sorry for the inconvenience error, no specific error number. I do not have QT installed,
not having QT installed is what will be causing your itunes error message at the moment. let's try a careful standalone QT 7.1 install.
download and save a copy of the QT 7.1 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
Quicktime 7.1 Standalone Installer
if that install goes through okay, does your itunes launch properly again?
(if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

Mac Book Software Update not working, iTune will not update because of that, iPhone 4 won't connect to iTunes because iTunes is not updated. Mac v.10.5.8, iTunes v.10.5.2, iPhone4 iOS 6

Mac Book Software Update not working (Software Update does not have any new software for your computer at this time), my current MacBook version is 10.5.8.
As a result I can't update iTunes, version 10.5.2 (This software requiers Mac OS X version 10.6.8 or later)
Now when I connect my iPhone 4, version iOS 6 iTunes can't connect to iPhone (The iPhone "XXXXX's iPhone" cannot be used because it requiers iTunes version 10.6.3 or later.)
so in a nutshell can't use iphone 4, because iTune is not updated and will not update because Mac Book is not up to date and will not update either.
Please help.
Thank you

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Snow Leopard is a paid upgrade. http://support.apple.com/kb/sp575 Call Apple to buy Snow Leopard. Then, make a backup, insert the DVD and upgrade. When it finishes, open  > Software Update

I have just update my mac mini server to OX Yosemite, but now the iTunes is not working at all.

I have just updated my Mac Mini Server (Mid 2011) to OS Yosemite ver 10.10, after the update, iTunes is not working, and i have tried to reinstall iTunes over and over again but it was not successful , please advise if you have a solution or share similar problems. Thank you.

You have to upgrade to 10.6.8 to be able to download iTunes 10.7 or 11. The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion or Mountain Lion. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
First we need to know which one of the 9 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard.
The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion.
The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion.

ITunes / iPhone not working properly after newest update...

iTunes is not working properly after the newest update... It dosen't see my iPhone, the program acts very sluggish, and has trouble loading the Store. Anyone have a solution or an explanation? I have tried the suggestions found in other threads ie. restart, re-download, charge phone, restart phone and so on. Nothing works. Everything was working fine until iTunes and the new ios were installed. After that it all went to crap. Thanks, Randy...

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Music/iTunes Match not working properly since update to iOS 7

Music/iTunes Match not working properly since update to iOS 7

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.
