ITunes Updating Problem

Hey,
I;m trying to update my model or iTunes from 7.2.0.35 to 7.3, it updates everything like quicktime and security but when it gets to updating iTunes it says "A later version of iTunes is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue." So any help or clues on what I should do ??
Cheers

kia ora, Jack.
with that one, let's try the following procedure.
first, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. if it goes, good. if it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to itunes.
next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. use it to clear any existing itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information from the PC. (Launch CleanUp, find any iTunes or QuickTime entries in the List that displays in CleanUp, and remove those iTunes and QuickTime entries.)
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
next, use the the following document as a guide for manual removal of leftover itunes and quicktime program files:
Removing iTunes and QuickTime for Windows
now try another itunes install. does it go through properly this time?

Sorry I gave this a 'this helped me' but after a long struggle I found some ticked box somewhere from some unauthorised chrome extension blaaa....... the link you gave was great, not only did it confirm all the bad things google is supposed to be up to it provided a better browser. Cheers man.
Anyone who find this; I disabled all extension in chrome. I then searched the word proxy in the settings section. A button came up, "change proxy settings" I clicked on it. Earlier it was greyed out as an extension was interefering.. It brought up a box with my own settings from my computer. Then I clicked LAN settings, then unchecked the 'Use a proxy server' button.
P.S. If you're using chrome, bail, and dowload Komodo Dragon. It's virtually identical, but you're not tracked, and you can use chrome extensions, and you can quickily transfer your chrome preferences into it.

ITunes update problem leading to a Windows NTLDR error

I also experienced the "MCVCR80.dll is missing" / "Error 7, Windows error 126" iTunes update error like almost everyone else. I followed turingtest2's solution that has been posted in the countless threads on this problem (e.g. <a href="https://discussions.apple.com/message/24618776#24618776" >https://discussions.apple.com/message/24618776#24618776</a>); really, turingtest2's solution is coming from Apple's own <a href="http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923" >HT1923</a> & <a href="http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925" >HT1925</a> articles.
My computer would not reboot, though! I got the error, "NTLDR IS MISSING", which indicates a *major* operating system problem. In trying to troubleshoot this problem, I've gotten myself into a real mess: it looks like I may have inadvertently wiped Windows and perhaps all my installed applications off my hard drive, in effect taking me back to my new out of the box state in 2005!!
I had Windows XP SP3 with all current updates installed, along with the Apple software needed to support my iPod Touch 3 and my iPad 3.
Here's what I did:
(1) I removed the applications in the order turingtest2 stated, running into the anticipated problem with Apple Mobile Device Support but pressing on as suggested.
(2) After uninstalling the final application, Apple Application Support, I retried uninstalling Apple Mobile Device Support one more time, but it failed to uninstall again, so I just pressed on.
(3) Because Apple Mobile Device Support failed to uninstall, I decided to check out the <a href="http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925" >HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP</a> article per turingtest2's suggestion, and did the extra step of making sure that iTunes and its related components are completely uninstalled.
(4) That included manually removing the Apple Mobile Device Support subfolder from the Common Files folder, that I assumed was still around because Apple Mobile Device Support failed to fully uninstall (btw I did NOT have any problem with iPodService being removed).
(5) I rebooted my computer.
(6) During that reboot process, as my computer was trying to load Windows from my hard drive, on a black screen appeared: "NTLDR IS MISSING, PRESS CTRL-ALT-DELETE TO RESTART".
(7) No other key press worked, so I did a ctrl-alt-delete, and the computer rebooted and then just displayed the same 'ntldr is missing' message.
(8) I did a forced shutdown (by holding in the power button) and turned on my computer again, just to get the same ntldr message.
(9) I used my iPad to research that message on the Internet, and found that I may be missing a couple of operating system files (ntldr & ntdetect.com) on my hard drive, which I can reload from my original Windows CDs . But like with most PC owners, my computer didn't come with any such CDs, though I did create Recovery CDs at home as advised (the ones I found in my desk were SP3 luckily).
(10) So I followed <a href="http://pcsupport.about.com/od/findbyerrormessage/a/ntldrmissingxp.htm" >the Internet instructions</a> of inserting 'the Windows XP bootable CD into the computer", rebooting the computer (I first verified that my BIOS is set to boot from a CD before my main hard drive), and pressing the "R" key to repair Windows.
(11) The remainder of the instructions would have had me then logging into Windows and copying the two before-mentioned files off the CD and into the root directory of my hard drive. But it didn't let me do that. Instead it just began automatically restoring Windows off the CD and onto my hard drive.
(12) Once that started, I didn't dare attempt to intervene.
(13) When it finished, it had me reboot.
(14) After loading, Windows displayed the first screen of the newly installed Windows setup procedure, a screen that I have seen many times on computers at work that I have reformatted hard drives on and installed a fresh Windows on (I served as my small (20-employees) company's network administrator because, though technically a novice relative to most network gurus, as an experienced computer programmer I knew the most about computers there).
(15) Afraid of taking another step forward, I haven't gone past that first screen. This is where I'm at right now.
I'm scared of going further because I don't know what Recovery has done to this point. I assume it would leave all my data files alone, though that wouldn't be a catastrophe, since I do full and incremental backups to an external drive. But has it in fact already reinstalled whatever the Windows it had on that CD overtop of the Windows on my hard drive? Has it already wiped all my installed applications from my hard drive? Or will it do any of this in the steps following this first screen? Can I avert a catastrophe or is it already too late?
If I were a regular user it would still be a big problem. But as a guy who makes his living with his computer, it is a catastrophe. Yes, I have all my original purchased software CDs. But I also have accumulated dozens if not hundreds of freeware software programs.
I don't know which of Apple's steps to uninstall iTunes caused my problem, but of course one of them did, in combination with my unique computer's state. Please, turingtest2 and others, if you can help me, I would so appreciate it. And of course it would be best if we can find a solution to avoid others potentially having the same problem.
Thank you,

I just made a back up DVD on the G5 and then loaded it onto the Vista iTunes .. worked great and took 10 mins total with both machines

Latest iTunes update problems with repeated error messages every 65 seconds??

After this mornings' update of iTunes. Problems with Applemobiledeviceservices.exe. Error message every 65 seconds - software exception (oxc06d007e) occurred in the application at location 0x7c812fd3.
How do I stop this?

'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Itunes update problem - missing file?

I've been trying to install the iTunes version 9.2 update, it doesn't get very far into it before i receive this message:
The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'Bonjour64.msi' in the box below.
Use source: yadayadayada.. (and gives me the option to browse for another source where the stated file is)
I've looked through every file imaginable (yes, the recycling bin too) and can't seem to find it anywhere! there's another file it says it's missing 'appleapplicationsupport.msi' as far as i'm concerned, i haven't deleted any files related to Apple. I've tried uninstalling the program but it says that it can't because those files are missing, i tried redownloading it from the Apple website - same problem.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem/have any suggestions? thanks.

I was having this problem for a while and searched through a number of forums for the answer on how to locate .msi files that I must have accidentally deleted. I needed the .msi files because while attempting to uninstall the Apple Software Update another Apple related program from my Add or Remove Programs list I was getting an error similar to:
"The feature you are trying to use in on a network resource that is unavailable.
Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the intallation package 'AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi' in the box below."
I followed these steps in order to locate the .msi and successfully uninstall:
1. Download the correct version of iTunesSetup.exe. This is the same version that you are attempting to delete on your computer. For me it was iTunes 9.1.1. (It is key that you download the same version you are attempting to remove!)
2. Install WinRAR: http://download.cnet.com/1770-20_4-0.html?query=winrar&tag=srch&searchtype=downl oads&filterName=platform%3DWindows,Webware&filter=platform%3DWindows,Webware
3. Run WinRAR and point it at the iTunesSetup.exe you downloaded in step 1. Extract the .exe to a folder.
4. Go to Add or Remove Programs and attempt to uninstall the broken Apple software.
5. When the uninstaller asks for the .msi, point it to the .msi file in the folder you extracted to in step 3.
Voilà! You should be able to successfully uninstall all your broken Apple applications this way, including QuickTime.

Music & iTunes Update Problem

Hi Everyone,
I'm soooo hoping that someone here can help me out. I'm totally stumped and have no idea what else to try.
I plugged my iPhone 3GS into my pc the the day before yesterday to clean up my music and clear off some of the apps. I started by deleting all my music so that I could start again. I also asked it to transfer any purchases that I'd made over to iTunes.
It wouldn't transfer the purchases, I don't remember if I got an error or not, I know I should have taken note but I didn't think much of it at the time. Then I tried putting music on my phone. Things went alright for a little bit and then I started getting errors telling me that it couldn't read the disk (I'm pretty sure that's what it said) and then it was telling me that my music files were corrupt, yet the music that I was transferring has been in my iTunes since I bought my phone a couple of years ago. I checked all the music and it was all playing fine and the files weren't missing or anything like that.
I unplugged my phone and checked my music and there was nothing there. When it's plugged in it shows there is music but as soon as I unplug it, no music. This kept happening over and over. I didn't get any error numbers or anything like that, so I googled my problem found the most common solutions were to update my iTunes (which I did need to do though I didn't realise) and to delete my photo cache. I couldn't download the latest iTunes because I didn't have any internet at home and for some reason it just wouldn't download on my friends internet when I connected to her wifi through my laptop. I went to the Add/Remove programs in the Control Panel and did a repair of iTunes aswell.
After deleting the photo cache and doing the repair though, I plugged my phone and it worked fine. Got a bunch of music on there. I thought the problem was fixed, so yesterday afternoon I sat down to put the rest of the music on and the problem started all over again.
So today, after finally getting some internet credit (I'm on a prepaid plan) I downloaded the latest iTunes and went to install it. I wouldn't work. All got was the pop up telling me it couldn't verify the program and I did I want to run it. Clicked 'yes' and nothing happens. Tried again by right clicking and running as admin, still nothing. Deleted that copy and re-downloaded another. Still the same problem. Tried updating through iTunes itself and got an 'invalid signature error'.
Here is what else I've done to try and resolve the problem:
Turned off my firewall.
Rebooted my computer.
Followed the instructions on this post: https://discussions.apple.com/message/5892486#5892486
I've been using Chrome to download iTunes so I'm now about to follow the instructions from this article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1406 to see if that makes any difference.
If anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it.

Sorry, I'm not trying to be pushy, I'm just giving this a quick bump in the hopes that it's seen a bit more...plus, I wanted to add a quick update.
I used IE 9 (I think it is, the latest IE) to download iTunes, instead of clicking save I clicked 'run' and when it finished downloading it told me it was an unsafe file and wouldn't run it. I wouldn't even give me the option to ignore IE's opinion and run it anyway. So I'm now off to my friends to see if I can get it to download using her internet and see if that makes any difference.
Also, if I were to update to the latest firmware using my current iTunes (which is 4.2.2 I think) would that possibly make a difference or would it more than likely just create more problems? What about restoring my phone through my current iTunes, would that possibly work?
Thanks again.

Need help: question about itunes update problem

I started up iTunes yesterday and a window popped up saying there was a new version of iTunes to update, so I did it, and now I can't save equalizer presets! The feature doesn't work at all anymore, and it used to work great. It just goes back to Manual every time, and just won't save anything you put in. This really frustrates me, as it was one of my fave things about iTunes. Can anybody tell me what happened? Can I fix it or go back to my old version without losing my library?
Cheers

How do I make sure I don't lose my library? if i uninstall and then re-install an older version (which I have on disc), how do I make sure my library comes with me?

ITunes updating problems

When I select "check for updates" under the Help menu iTunes tells me I have an update available and asks if I want to download it. When I choose to download, nothing apparently happens. I currently have version 10.5.0.142.

Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Does that go through any better for you?

ITunes Update Problem Causing Runtime Error R6034

I have tried everything to fix this issue and read postings about it. None worked.
I uninstalled all apple applications, restarting in between, then started getting
(APSDaemon.exe system error icudt49.dll is missing).
Installed iTunes and back to Runtime error R6034.
PC runs on Win 7, 64 bit.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

I have the same Error
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, even downloading older versions without any luck. When Apple resolves an issue can we simply redownload iTunes at that time. Or is this something we need to fix ourselves? Help please!

Itunes update loses all data related to my 2nd device, Is there anyway to get Itunes to work properly?

Another Apple Itunes Update. Dutifully I applied it and found that Itunes afterwards had lost all information related to my Ipod device (it retained the information to my Iphone which uses a different music selection). Now Itunes wants to erase all data on my 2nd device so that I can use Itunes on it. I am getting quite tired of dealing with these Itune update problems, problems which I experience inspite of keeping my device and software backed up on each of my computers.
Is there any way to fix Itunes without wiping all data from my 2nd Itunes device?

Problem with itunes update. I am running OSX v 10.4.11 and can't get itunes to update. I had itunes 9.1.1 and when I tried ask it to update it said there was no update. sent old itunes to trash and now apple site itunes download is not working. help...

From Apple website when I go to itunes update to 10.3 I am not seeing the left column to download itunes 10.3. Does anyone else have this problem? I tried yesterday as well. Today, I threw my itunes 9.1.1 in the trash and emptied it... and then rebooted. What am I doing wrong?

What operating system are you running? I doubt it's an iPhone OS on a Mac Mini, but if you meant to choose 10.4 then you're out of luck. http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ At the bottom of the left hand column on this page, you'll see it requires OS X 10.5 or higher.

Resolved!
After contacting Apple, I received a reply from their engineers:
Copy QTMovieWin.dll from: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
to: C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
And that did the trick.
