ITunes won't install--HKEY error?

So I have a new Nano and iTunes refuses to install.
Yayyy.
Every time I try, it tells me that it could not open key: HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classes\QuickTimePlayerLib.QuickTimePlayerApp\CLSID. It tells me to verify I have sufficient access to the key--I made sure I did--and contact support personnel.
Someone help me. Nothing's worked. I've given myself full access, uninstalled and reinstalled everyfrickinthing, and nothing. I always always ALLLLWAYS have the same error.
It's depressing.
Seriously, this iPod's about to go out my window... please help =(

I need help i can't install itunes please help

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.

Itunes won't install. Error msg?

Everytime I try to install Itunes the error message comes up and says to refer to help and suppport and has HRESULT:0x80070424. How do I fix that?

What is the entire error message?
Are you able to remove iTunes or remove/install any other applications?
Take a look at this thread -> I-tunes will not install. even after i used all of the help offers.

Itunes won't install get error 'could not access network location'

I get the following error message when I try to install itunes 10.5 on a new windows 7 pc.
Tx in advance for the help.

With that particular variety of 1606 (it's a 1606 error message even though the 1606 error message number isn't returned by the iTunes installer), the following Microsoft document is worth a try:

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?

Perhaps first try a complete uninstall/reinstall as per the following document:

... but if no joy there, check on your .NET framework as per the following document:

my itunes won't instal the update errors saying cannot find itunes.msi

Hi, kdub5.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you can not update iTunes due to a .msi error. I would recommend uninstalling iTunes and all of it's components as outlined in the first article below. For any component that gives you the .msi error, go through the steps in the second article below.
Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

ITunes won't install. PLEASE. HELP. URGENT.

iTunes won't install. My PC got reformatted. Now, I can't install iTunes. I've been trying to install it for like 3 months now, then it still won't. I've tried to remove it completely, following the guidelines Apple has given. AND ALMOST EVERYTHING.
Then the other day, I was really really happy that I got it installed, I removed AVG Anti-virus from the PC and turned off ThreatFire. I thought that was the end of my problem, then yesterday, when I opened iTunes it won't work again! So I tried to re-install it, following every guideline. Still, it won't install! In the installing process, around "Registering iTunes automation server", I ALWAYS get the message "Some of its required files are missing. Please re-install."
I REALLY DO NEED YOUR HELP.

Describe what happens when you try to open iTunes - do you see anything? If there is an error message give it in full.
If there is no error message open the task manager (ctrl alt del) and look on the processes tab, do you see iTunes.exe there and does it stay there.
Try opening Quicktime - does that work normally, iTunes cannot work if QUicktime doesn't. If it doesn't work, describe what happens and give any error message.

TS3074 iTunes not not installed correctly, Error 7, 998 - but only sometimes

I am using Windows 7. Sometimes iTunes will not launch. I get a message that says iTune was not installed properly - Error 7, 998. I have deleted Apple programs (including iTunes) and reloaded them. I have added the net framework files that the help page recommends. The thing is, sometimes it still won;t launch. I eave the computer for a couple of hours, try again, and voila, iTune launches. Any ideas?

Itunes won't install. AMDS won't uninstall

Itunes won't install. I've tried to uninstall itunes and all apple software so that I can install the latest version. But it won't let me uninstall apple Mobile Device Support. Can anybody help? How do I get iTunes back? Whenever I try to install the latest version it gets stuck just after checking the AMDS.

There is no text error message. The install of itunes just freezes on the "Checking Space Requirements" bit (which is immediately after it checks AMDS.
Hmmmm. Possibly a disk/file damage issue there, tom. If so, running a chkdsk over your C drive might help.

What does the error message say when you install iTunes and it fails?
