ITunes will not install on my laptop / windows vista  iTunes 11.0.4.4

Despite downloading the software via IE and Firefox, the install always fails. 
The error message I get (roughly translated from German) is
There is a Windows Install Packet related problem. A program which is required  to complete the installation process cannot be executed.  Contact software Support or the creator of the packets.
What should I do?
Need your help! 
Thanks!
Eva

I found this thread, which worked!   it took forever, but the new software suggested in the link fixed my issue.

    Itunes will not launch, no error message (windows xp, itunes 10.7.0.21)
    Yeah

    OK, so i cannot enter into iTunes safe mode, whilst monitoring proccesses in the task manager I noticed that itunes will only stay open if i keep my fingers on shift and control-i dont know if that is worth mentioning- the proccess promptly ends after the release of the said keys, (I tried both the shift control keys on either side of the keyboard-same result) so i am stuck there.
    P.S.
    This version of iTunes had previously worked before, I uninstalled everything apple related after noticing how many processes (-id est-) /applications, were using up my memory.
    afterwards I had need for iTunes, (i needed to wipe my iDevice) I reinstalled and this problem has arisen.

  • TS3694 itunes will not install on my laptop any more. The latest update seems incompatible with Windows Vista.

    The latest iTunes update will not install on my HP laptop with Windows Vista. There is a Microsoft Visual C++ runtime error message and it will not load or set p.

    I reinstall Quicktime and it would not launch and gave me the same error messages.
    We'd better check to see if some other application has stashed old versions of QuickTime componentry down in your system files.
    So we'll go looking for the older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • ITunes will not install completely due to Windows Logo Test!

    +"The software you are installing for this hardware:+
    iTunes
    +has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify its compatibility with Windows XP (Tell me why this testing is important.)+
    +This hardware will not be installed. Contact your system administrator."+
    It has been doing this for a few weeks now, and it's only when it tries to install the drivers to my CD/DVD drive. There isn't even a bypass for it provided. I have switched it to ignore the logo test and still it brings the message up every time.
    Also, because of it, I get the annoying message every time I start iTunes:
    +"Warning! iTunes was not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn CDs, you need to reinstall iTunes."+
    I've gone through all the motions of uninstalling it and reinstalling it several times. It hasn't helped at all. Please help! I just want this behind me!
    I forgot to mention before that I have been looking EVERYWHERE for a possible answer to this question with no luck, so any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

    I've been having the similar problems too. For some reason, I can uninstall iTunes, but when I try to uninstall Apple Application Support and Apple Mobile Device Support, I get the "Could not open key: UNKNOWN/COMPONENTS/etc./ Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel. iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall. Error 7. Windows error 127." error message. I'm on an admin account on Windows 7 and I've tried setting universal permissions through Regedit for the specific keys in question, but nothing works. I'm also missing the dll files required to run iTunes and its associated programs.
    Please help, this is getting really frustrating!

  • TS3212 itunes will not install on my laptop running Windows 8.1.  "

    After installing Win 8.1 I have not been able to install iTunes.  After the program installs "successfully" I'm instructed to hit the finish button.  the program loads, abut n error msg appears immediately saying that iTunes has stopped working and that I will be notified when a solution is found (something like that).  I've followed all the suggestions I could find in the FAQs but non work.  Since I have Kaspersky Virus Protection it is a little bit harder to turn all the features off one by one.  Still no solution.  I did not have this problem witjh Win 8.0, only after I upgraded to 8.1 did the problem begin.

    Hello robertian047,

  • Itunes will not install on windows 7 home

    Any one had this issue
    Itunes will not install on windows 7 home

    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
    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.

    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.

  • Itunes will not install..windows INSTALLER service not available.windows 7

    I am trying to find a fix for this...just bought a new computer with windows 7, all updates have been performed. Itunes will not install...it just stops and says "windows installer service not available" Can't find a stand alone downloadable version of installer 5.0 which is what comes with 7 from the research I have done. I have the newest version of itunes saved on desktop, tried running it from desktop, tried running as admin, tried several other ideas that I found on here and Microsoft..but nothing is working. Any advice?

    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.)

    You probably need to either uninstall and reinstall itunes or to download the apple application support by itself
    you can download the itunes http://www.apple.com/itunes/ here
    then to do a complete uninstall / reinstall follow these instructions http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    you could also use 7zip to extract the individual installer for apple application support from the itunes setup file http://www.7-zip.org
