ITunes Working until Codex install

Help! My itunes was working fine and then I installed some Divx codexes for QuickTime and now iTunes won't even start. It keep crashing during loading. Any advise/Fix would be appreciated. I wouldn't mind a clean install as long as someone can tell me how to save my library settings.

After several weeks of not finding answers here or elsewhere on the web - and after waiting for an iTunes 7.0.1 and getting it - I "gave up" and went to the Apple Store last night.
The Genius bar took my ipod, plugged it in to a mac, reached under the counter and handed me what they said was a NEW ipod (it was in a generic brown box with no accessories, cables, etc). I did not like that solution for two reasons. First, all of my family photos and videos were on my iPod and I did not like the idea that maybe those photos would turn up on the web someday. Second, it was a gift and had a personalized engraving on the back. When I pressed them on what they thought was wrong with my iPod they said it was not worth the time to figure out and they would just give me another one. Or I could ship in to Apple Support and they would send me a new one WITH the same engraving in a couple of weeks. I took the "new" iPod.
And, sure enough, when I connected it to my powerbook it was detected, the firmware was updated and iTunes synced all my music, photos and videos (and games).
The Genius bar people seems pretty sure that the problem was hardware (the port where you connected the USB cable at the bottom of the device). When I pointed out that it had been working fine right up until the day I upgraded to iTunes 7.0 and that it had not worked since they did not seem terribly interested.
So, my problem is "solved" in that I have a working iPod sans engraving.

I updated to Itunes 10.6.1.7. over 6 months ago on my windows XP desktop.It's worked well. Recently, on startup, a dialog box appeared which read: Itunes was not properly installed. If you wish to burn or import CDs please re-install Itunes. Please help.

re-install V10.6.1.7 or update to 10.6.3. but where do I find these old versions? Which do I use,
32 or 64 bit?
Please help.

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 9 will not instal on XP Pro - itunes 7 does work?

I have installed Quick 7 as stand alone, it worked. Then installed itunes 7 and this worked.
downloaded itunes 9 standalone. Installer gets to just after asking for country and then says ' encountered unpected error, install failed, please try later.'.
I have VDScritp lastest. regedit the .dll as per the apple support.
Any ideas?

Apologies about the delay. I've been brooding.
Although we don't know where the specific relevant keys are on modern versions of iTunes, there's a shotgun approach we can take to dealing with them, which has a reasonable chance of success in this case. The complicating factor in your case is that you've got a 64-bit Windows. So there's an extra hoop to jump through.
The basic approach is the procedure from the following weblog entry:
[Solving setup errors by using the SubInACL tool to repair file and registry permissions|http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2006/09/04/solving-setup-err ors-by-using-the-subinacl-tool-to-repair-file-and-registry-permissions.aspx]
The complicating factor is that we have to make an additional edit to the reset.cmd file.
When you're in Notepad, replacing the two YOURUSERNAME values with the name of your Windows 7 user account, in the first line of the batch file, replace the:
%programfiles%
... with:
%ProgramFiles(x86)%
(On a 64-bit Windows system, subinacl is installed in a different location than on 32-bit systems. So unless we make that change, the reset.cmd isn't going to be able to find subinacl and the reset.cmd won't work.)
While you're in Notepad editing the file, make sure each of the nine lines of the file start of a new line. (Sometimes they get smooshed up together on a single line, and then again the reset.cmd won't work.)
I'd strongly suggest setting up a System Restore point immediately prior to running the reset.cmd. There's instructions on that in the following document:

Itunes 8 will not install.. it says a program needed is not working??????

Help me someone!! I have tried uninstalling everything.No luck. itunes7 reinstalled with no problem. But when I try to install 8 I get the error message....
"There is a problem with this windows installer package. a program required for this install to complete could not be run. contact your support personnel or package vendor"
I have no idea what to do.. since now I have 2.1 installed on my ipod touch.. it will not connect to itunes until i install 8.

Exactly my problem. Very frustrating. It bricked my wife's iphone. She was not happy. I'll never update itunes or the iphone again!
Apparently what happened is this...
I plugged her iphone into the pc.
Itunes then updated the iphone.
Next, Itunes wanted to update itunes, but I kept getting the above Error.
So, I installed the Windows installer cleanup utility as the other posts say to do.
Then I deleted itunes with the cleanup utility.
Still, I get the error.
But finially, and here is the Solution...
Use the installer cleanup utility to delete any itunes things listed.
Apparently the Iphone update installer was the problem... Delete It with the cleanup utility!
Hooray!
Thanks Apple for this horrible hassle!

Try resetting the phone:
Press the Sleep/Wake button & Home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.

Hi,
I would like to ask you a question.
a month ago I bought a battery case for iPhone 5 and it worked properly until I installed iOS 7. From that day my iphone is operating normally, BUT when the battery is empty, unfortunately I can not charge additionally my iphone with the "extra battery case".
Does that mean that you did not even create a new software that supports additional battery case or it is something else?
I need your help!!,
Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
VK

The Mophie Air is a good battery case, but doesn't offer the protection she's looking for. I suggest sticking to the Lifeproof, the iPhone has a very good battery (2-3 days moderate usage for me).
To your 2nd to last paragraph, that is false. Verizon is allowing exisiting customers to keep Unlimited Data - but will lose it once they use a subsidized upgrade. So if you buy a 4S (or LTE device for example) outright, you will keep unlimited data. Mobile hotspot may use up a bit of data, but it is a separate add-on/feature. The new Family Share plans may change that, so it's one giant center of data all devices use.

HT1926 I cannot get iTunes to load -- "Apple Application Support was not found". I have tried multiple things to fix it and nothing works including re-installing.

Try b noir's post Standalone Apple Application Support install to see if that can repair the problem or provide futher information, otherwise try reinstalling again as shown in Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.

TS1368 iTunes works fine until I try to go to itunes store, then blue screens

Itunes works fine until I try to go to itunes store, then blue screens. Why? using iTunes vs. 11.0.2.26 on Win7

same problem here ... itunes is working pretty well, then when i opened itunes store, boom! blue screen ... tried it several times ... all the same
then i uninstall - reinstall - shut down - system restore - do everything the tutorials told me ... turned out completely a wasted time BLUE SCREEN still poppin' whenever i open itunes store! dunno what to do.

In Windows 7 Itunes loads and runs fine. When I close it down and try to get back in it just sits there. It won't work until I reboot the computer.

I am running WIndows7. I boot up load itunes and it runs fine.. all aspects.
When I close it down and try to get back in later it just sits there. It won't work until I reboot the computer.
I have updated and reloaded several times. Nothing

Let's see whether this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, make sure you do this below to prevent same problem after restarting windows:
Go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
