Itunes won't install - error message "Later version already Installed"

I'm a stumped PC Windows XP user - I have downloaded the last few updates to Itunes and each one has said that I already have a later version of Itunes installed. I have uninstalled, deleted and cleaned up all files as suggested by Apple and even gone to the trouble of manually editing the registry to delete all Itunes, Ipod and QuickTime references to see if that will sort it, to no available.
The bit I don;t undersdtand is how can a aletr version than the current one exist unless there are version numbering or date issues.
Anyway I have had to regress to version 7.1.1.5
Any clever people have a clue.... All help much appreciated

  • ITunes won't open - error message

    When I try and launch iTunes I get this error message:  "The folder iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder."  I have since unistalled and reinstalled V 11. I have also been given admin rights to my machine. I have given myself full rights to this folder.  It still won't open. Now I have unistallaed it again and reinstalled V. 10. Same error message. I ran the compaibility report and it say there is an incompatible device but doesn't say which one.   Any ideas?  I am on a Windows 7 Fujitsu laptop. I had no problems with it until I upgraded recently to V. 11.
    Thanks for any help here.

  • ITunes won't run - error message

    "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
    I have tried many suggestions - Turning off Virus protection (McAfee), Running Ad-Aware and Spybot Search and destroy, and even doing a system restore.
    Upon trying to do a system restore i noticed that my computer has jumped ahead to the year 2165.
    How is this possible? What would cause this?
    Also, when i try to update definitions in my spyware programs, the process fails.
    I need help. No viruses are detected when i run any programs.

    well done uproom_stares!
    apologies for the nosy question, but what viruses did the scan pick up?
    i've seen cases of W32.Pinfi/Win32.Parite.A cause people vaguely similar sorts of grief:
    W32.Pinfi
    ... but it's not particularly easy to diagnose (from our end of things) because the symptoms aren't tremendously consistent. (i think they might end up depending on what particular .exe files get eaten by a particular infection on a particular machine.)

  • I tried to install the new iTunes & I get an error message

    I tried to install the new iTunes & i got an error message & i have already deleted all apple related things & reinstalled them. Now a message that says something about verify my apple mobile device keeps coming up & i have no idea how to fix this problem.

    ... not likely to be a LSP thing, then.
    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Itunes won't install. Error message: Apple Application Support not found

    Itunes won't install. Error message: Apple Application Support not found.  What is the fix for this?

    It is always these four updates that fail.  I've tried downloading and installing them seperately from apple downloads.  I've tried various recommended fixes, and nothing I can figure out works.  Before these problems, itunes worked on the computer for a year.
    Thank you again for wanting to help me.

  • When i install or reinstall the new itunes i get an error message that says:

    when i install or reinstall the new itunes i get an error message that says:
    apple application support was no found.
    apple application support is required to run ituneshelper. please uninstall itunes, then install itunes again.
    error 2
    thats all it says ive tried to reinstall uninstall ive done all that and it wont work. i use windows 7
    please help me!!

    Yeah, this is absolutely ********. I have t5he same message, only i just started getting it when my Iphone4 went in to recovery mode.
    I uninstalled itunes, downloaded the lates itunes just now, reinstalled it and got the same message.
    So, i did some more google research, and saw a recommendation that rather than installing itunes, one should unpack it with win zip, or win rar.
    I did this, and even though I just downloaded the apple software today, when i try installing application support, i gwt a message saying A LATER VERSION OF APPLE APPLICATION SUPPORT IS ALREADY INSTALLED.. go figure! Du-uh!
    So, i uninstalled the new itunes, went - control panel-programs- and dis a search for apple application support, found it and deleted it too.
    Resinstalled itunes and again the same message.
    unistalled everything again, tried installing application support first, then itunes, and now I get a message saying ITUNES WAS NOT ISNATLLED CORRECTLY!
    I am so annoyed right now, that if my puter was a person, I would be in Jail!

  • Itunes won't install. I get a message stating "apple mobile device failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient priveleges to start system services. I had itunes on this laptop and an urgrade came. Now nothing. Windows7, 64 bit

    itunes won't install. I get a message stating "apple mobile device failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient priveleges to start system services. I had itunes on this laptop and an urgrade came. Now nothing. Windows7, 64 bit

    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.

  • When updating to  itune 10.5 I get this error message ,older version of bonjour can not be removed, and older version of apple mobile support cannot be removed, any one know how to fix this.

    When updating to  itune 10.5 I get this error message ,older version of bonjour can not be removed, and older version of apple mobile support cannot be removed, any one know how to fix this.

    1) The older version of Bonjour can not be removed. Contact your technical support group.
    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

  • ITunes won't install. Says error writing to file C:\Program Files\itunes\itunes.resources\da.lproj\AboutBox.rft

    iTunes won't install. 
    Says error writing to file C:\Program Files\itunes\itunes.resources\da.lproj\AboutBox.rft
    Does anybody know what I need to do to fix this?

    I am the administrator, so this can't be a rights problem. The error message says "error writing to file c:\program files\apple software update\softwareupdate.exe. 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, as per the following document:
    How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    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?
