Itunes will not install due to Invalid folder path
I have downloaded Itunes and every time I attempt to install it I get the message "The folder path "My Pictures" contains an invalid character". What can I do?
This should help,
This happens due to incorrect shell folder value type, or due to incorrect data in the registry. To resolve the problem, fix the My Pictures Shell folder paths in the registry accordingly. The default values are given in a tabular column in the following article. There is also a .REG fix available in the following page:
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/usershellfolders.htm
Don't forget to inspect the value type. If you're using an expandable string data such as %userprofile%, then the registry value type should be of REGEXPANDSZ, not REG_SZ.

Try updating your QuickTime Player to the latest version. Does that clear up the DEP errors in iTunes?

Do you have a 64-bit version of Vista? If so, I'd try the following instructions with that one:

Itunes will not install/upgrade?
itunes will not install, keeps trying to save to g:/ drive when it does not exist, will not let me change drive?
+"E:\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\sv.lproj\Ringtone.nib". The file is there and if you clik on it it says it is bad. It is marked read only and will not let me change this or delete it or anything. After you clik cancel install another message box comes up and says:"The installer has encounted an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2330".+
Yeah, the 2330 is usually associated with a bad file or folder interfering with an install.
Try running a chkdsk over your C drive:

Des the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you now move or delete that file? If so, will an itunes install go through properly now? -

ITunes will not install on a 64 bit PC Win 7
iTunes will not install on a 64 bit PC running Windows 7 with all updates.
Most answers send you to a "cleaner" of somekind that check for errors in you PC and then wants to charge you to clean it. My PC is CLEAN.
Something is keeping iTunes from installing and running. Tried 64 bit, 32 bit and all help desks.
Same error message "This version is for a 32 bit computer, yours is a 64 bit!" I know that and only install the 64 bit version!!!Same error message "This version is for a 32 bit computer, yours is a 64 bit!"
Doublechecking ... by any chance did you migrate a 32-bit version of the iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Support and Bonjour programs to the 64-bit machine from a 32-bit machine using the PC Mover utility?
(Your symptoms are consistent with that ... the installer service throws the message when trying to uninstall the 32-bit itunes and related 32-bit componentry prior to installing the new 64-bit versions.) -
Itunes will not install. I get the error message "Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\com.apple.IE.client_main.dll Verify that you have access to that directory."
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 will not install on windows 7 home
Any one had this issue
Itunes will not install on windows 7 homeGo 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
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.
See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.
