Itunes was not installed correctly Error 7 (Windos error 998)
Hello,
has anyone an idea to assist. Can't get rid of the problem with itunes 11.0.4.4. Quick Time works properly. Tried to repair as well as uninstall and install again.
Messages remains at start of itunes.
Your assistance will be appreciated very much.
Bernd
I just installed the new update and am getting the same error over and over.
I have manually unistalled iTunes and downloaded the latest installer - no luck. Have never had a problem with iTunes in 10 years.
There is a suggestion on the forums for doing something with the optical filter registry, but I am not touching regedit, so that's no help.
Ideas?

I have the same problem and
have followed the link uninstalling in the correct order,
then restarted as per instructions,
went to Apple to download itunes,
hit download now,
Visit the iTunes download page. Click Download Now to download the iTunes installer. When prompted, click Save (instead of Run).
did not get a save instead of run prompt
Right click on iTunesSetup or iTunes64Setup (the installer you downloaded in step 3).
If you have Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: Choose "Run as administrator."
i can only click run as administrator from right clicking the shortcut on my desktop screen
If iTunes fails to install or repair, it might be necessary to remove components left from a previous installation of iTunes and then reinstall.
sick of doing this

Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates -
Hi!
So i think i closed the wrong service at some point a few weeks back (apple mobile device) but iTunes remained working after that for another week. I then updated iTunes and i get the same "Service ‘Apple Mobile Device’ (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." every time. If i click ignore, just so i can access iTunes with out syncing my iPod (touch 2nd gen) i then get 'iTunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193)" when it has all installed. I don't understand what the problem is anymore as I have looked at other questions on the apple website, carried out the advice and it hasn't work. Any of them.
Tings I have done:
- Wiped all iTunes and Apple data from my computer (if you search for 'iTunes' or 'Apple' nothing comes up apart from applets from system code.
- Attached iPod before iTunes install and updated drivers.
- Installed iTunes as 'Run as administrator'
- Uninstalled and re-installed the software nearly 20 times now and rebooted the computer in between everytime.
Please someone help because i really need to get music on my ipod and i enjoy the ease of use of iTunes compared to spotify or Windows Media Player.For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.
Regarding AMDS failures there is a hint in another thread that disabling the Windows Firewall before attempting to reinstall may help, otherwise take a look at the steps outlined in this post. Re: Can't install iTunes 12.1 on Windows 7 64-bit. I know they look a little daunting, but the process of generating the logs themselves isn't that hard to do. Extracting useful information from them is still a challenge but maybe something will leap out. If you want to post the log for the failed components for me to have a look at here or in the other thread please edit out any personal information, particularly your email address, first.

I have the latest version of iTunes and when I went to go open it, it can't! It says: "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes.Error 7 (Windows error 126)" What do I do now? Should I uninstall and try installing it again? I don't want to loose any of my music and info. PLEASE HELP!
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.

When opening iTunes on my new Windows 7 PC I continue to get the same messages, 'The program can't start because AVFoundationCF.dll is missing' and 'iTunes was not installed correctly. Error 7 (Windows error 126)' I've uninstalled and reinstalled many times to no avail, even tried it on a different user account and still nothing. I recently installed Panda Internet Security 2012 (about 12 days ago), initially iTunes worked fine as usual but within the last few days I've been unable to open it with the same messages appearing. I've read through some of these pages and tried everything that's been advised, uninstalling and reinstalling while internet and laptop security is swithched off, downloading tools to completely remove anything related to iTunes, tried it in Safe Mode, nothing has worked. I've also noticed that in the start menu when I click on iTunes, it says '(empty)' where it should have the logo and ability to start the program, does this mean it doesn't download + install properly each time I've tried? Any help would be enormously appreciated.

ITunes was not installed correctly. Error 7 (Windows 7)
It all started when the apple software updater found updates for both itunes and quicktime. Ever since getting that update iTunes has never worked again.
I've googled this problem and tried all solutions. I tried uninstalling everything, rebooting, and re-installing itunes. I've tried repairing .net framework. I've even tried to use the revo uninstaller.
When I attempt to put iTunes back on the computer I get an error message saying something like:
Service apple mobile device failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges.
I'm given an option to either retry, ignore, or abort. I've tried to retry, but the same message with the same options always comes up. I've tried ignoring, but when the install is done I get the same message that iTunes was not installed correctly error 7. Sometimes it will say the iTuneshelper wasn't installed correctly.
WIthout iTunes i can't add new songs to my iPhone and I can't get any future updates either. There must be a fix out there for this. Please help me.I've found something that may or may not be relevant.
Whenever I run CCleaner after installing iTunes I get the following registry errors:
Missing TypeLib Reference IUserHelper - {19D52A9A-379C-4720-BA00-3D396ECD24D7} HKCR\Interface\{915DA835-02FE-4953-92FA-624BDF5D85AB}

These always come back when I try and 'Repair' iTunes from the control panel.
Ideas anyone? -
All of a sudden my iTunes stopped working, and I get the following error messages:
1. the program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem
and
2. iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 126).
Now I've checked the forums and followed the advice of uninstalling all Apple applications, rebooting, and reinstalling iTunes.
This is not working. I've tried installing as Administrator but doesn't make any difference at all.
There must be a way to fix this? I'm not a tech geek but I want to avoid having to take my laptop back to factory settings to sort this out.
ThanksClick 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.

I have the same problem as many other users: updated iTunes on Windows 7 on Jan 26, 2014 and iTunes does not open. First message "unable to locate component- MSVCR80.dll was not found" then "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes - Error 7 (Windows error 126)". When will Apple fix this? Don’t feel like uninstalling all Apple software and then re-installing it as suggested, as I am on a terribly slow internet connection while travelling in the DR Congo.
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 press on)
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.

After atempting to update to iTunes 11.something (.3 or .4 which I had been avoiding because of past experiences) I get this message when I try & open iTuunes. ITunes was not installed correctly please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193). I have attempted to download iTunes several times. What can I do?

Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates -
ITunes stopped working on Windows 8. Error message 7: iTunes was not installed correctly.
I have Windows 8. Originally iTunes worked fine, then it couldn't update (said it was unsuccessful). Then it stopped working, so I (after much research) tried a long and tiresome method of removing all Apple products and re-installing them. I did this 3 times and it eventually worked and has been working fine for a few months. Recently, when trying to update, it has said "update successful", but when checking for new updates, finds the same one it supposedly just installed, wanting to install it again. For a few weeks now it has not worked at all, saying "error message 7: iTunes was not installed correctly" when I attempt to open iTunes. I can't bring myself to go through the whole process again of uninstalling and reinstalling everything, it took hours and it clearly doesn't solve the problem. I have no idea what the problem is. Reinstalling only iTunes doesn't work. The support pages have no advice available for my crappy version of Windows.

It shouldn't really take that long to do, assuming it goes smoothly.

Itunes was not installed correctly... Error 7...and then some
Downloaded Itunes 9 and now get a message: "Ituneshelper was not installed correctly. Please reinstall Itunes. Error 7" I have tried to reinstall and get the same message again. If I try to open Itunes from the desktop icon I get another message: "Itunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall Itunes. Error 7 (Windows error 998)
I have taken Itunes off of my computer twice and reinstalled and still get these messages.
I followed the instructions on a similar thread that was posted in May but that didn't help.
What do ya think? Any help would be greatly appreciated.It's being unusually cryptic for an Error 7.
Usually if the .NET framework is up to snuff, an error 7 indicates trouble with the Apple Application Support installation. But in those cases, usually there's a preceding message about one of the Apple Application Support program files.
On rare occasions (had it happen to me once myself while installing and uninstalling stuff by way of troubleshooting experimentation), the 7 can indicate trouble with one of the other associated programs (like QuickTime, perhaps BonJour). So, perhaps the sensible way forward for us under the circumstances is a complete uninstall and reinstall of all iTunes and related componentry, as per:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
If you get any error messages with any of the uninstalls, deletions or reinstall, let us know what they say.
If, however, the process seems to go through swimmingly, does your iTunes start launching without the 7?
