ItunesSetup.exe is not valid

I had i-tunes version 6 on my laptop and have just bought a nano-pod to transfer the music, but when I download version 7 (the nano pod won't recognise version 6) I get an error message:
D:\mymusic\itunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application.
What can I do about this? What a waste of £170 if I can't actually get the music on the ipod...

See if this might help you with the issue.

  • ITunesSetUp.exe is not a valid iTunes Win32 application? (Windows 7)

    I just installed Windows Ultimate for Windows 7 on my computer after a new hard drive was installed. I downloaded iTunes 9.0 but when I clicked iTunesSetUp.exe
    I got the following error message:
    "iTunesSetUp.exe is not a valid iTunes Win32 application".

    grgatzby,
    Empty the cache files of your browser and temp directory as described here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
    Then save the file again to another location on the computer.
    If you cannot clear the cache, try to download the iTunes and quicktime setup installer from the quicktime site: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html

  • ITunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application message

    I downloaded iTunes7 for 2000/XP, but when I try to install the .exe, I receive 'iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application'. Any ideas on what might cause this error?

  • "iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid 32bit application" error received.

    "iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid 32bit application" error received.  I'm on dial up (no flames or stupid comments in reference to this please) with Toast using IE9.  I've uninstalled, deleted, and restarted my computer after each attempt.  I've tried with 32bit and 64bit.  I've tried at the local library using their WiFi connection and at home with the dial up.  I've tried running program and saving before running both download types.  This has been 3 days of work since the 24th all so my son can try and use his iPod Touch.  Is there no way of accessing iTunes with the iPod Touch without having it installed on the computer?  I'm sick of this and so disgusted with Apple right now.  I'm sorry that I'm on dial up, but out where I live, everyone is because there is no reception for phones or satelite.  And even coming to town to use the quicker internet here, it still was a 6hour plus download time.  And right when I click 'Run', it gives me this error message each time.
    My son and my whole family and neighborhood after I've asked everyone's help with this problem has become fed up with Apple cause there is no disc they can mail me to get iTunes onto my computer and no one else we've asked can download it either.  One person has the program but its iTunes 7 and they can't upgrade because of dial up.  His iPod Touch will not even go to any other screen but the one that shows the plug and iTunes icon on it.  I would really appreciate some kind of help from someone cause we are all sick of this, my son is not happy, and this was supposed to be a Christmas present that he could use.  I can not even remotely begin to....well, I could fill this page with gripes but I would just really appreciate a knowledgeable answer that I can use to quickly fix this for my son's Christmas.  Please help.

    Karen, this is far off-topic in a sense.  But I have a sister in the wilds of central MI.  No access to cable no way. And limited 3G minutes.
    She finally opted for MiFi and can get much faster online access.  She is able to download to her iTouch, iPad and Mac laptop (3 y.o.) much faster than her old dialup.
    It's worth checking if it might help. Hers is Verizon (http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/mobilebroadband/?page=products_mifi)
    AT&T also has MiFi (http://www.wireless.att.com/businesscenter/devices/att-mobile-hotspot-mifi-2372. jsp).
    There may be others as well.
    I am spoiled w/ cable but it's been great  for her.  If this is out of line or you've explored it to no avail please ignore.
    Best wishes and hope these bumps get smoothed out.  Hope you have a good New Year and your son's iTouch problems get worked out.

  • Windows reports that iTunesSetup.exe is not a "valid Win32 application

    Every time I try to download iTunes, I receive the following error message: iTunes: Windows reports that iTunesSetup.exe is not a "valid Win32 application."
    I have followed the instructions on the support website (uninstalled all versions of iTunes and QuickTime then reinstalled QuickTime without iTunes and then tried to install iTunes again). I continue to get this message and it has not been resolved. Please help!!

    It might help to clear out Internet Explorer's temporary files then try downloading the iTunes software again.

  • It says 'iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application.'?

    The way my company has set up software installs means we have to save any application to the hard drive and then run it from there.  It's supposed to keep unwanted stuff from being loaded onto computers by less than tech savvy users, but it makes it hard to load even innocuous things like iTunes.
    When I 'save' instead of 'run' from the applet, I get a very brief download (comparatively) and then when I try and manually run the .exe file, I get the above statement in an error message.  If I select 'run' from the intital download popup, it takes much longer to download, but then can't load because it's not been run with admin privledges (which you do get if you download an application file first and then manually 'run' the install).  I suspect the two options don't give you access to the same files, but how can I download the actual install program to run it manually?

    That's a Windows PC issue. What is the Mac OS X Lion issue? In other words what are you posting in the Lion forums about?

    Perhaps try downloading and saving a copy of the installer to a different PC. (If you're on a 32-bit Windows system, try to download on a different 32-bit Windows system.) Copy the iTunesSetup.exe installer to an external hard-drive, or a large-enough thumb drive or burn it to a CD-R. Carry the installer back to your PC, copy the installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install from the ExHD, thumb or CD-R.) Start the install by doubleclicking the iTunesSetup.exe file.

  • "iTunesSetup.exe is not a Win32 application" error!

    I have tried installing iTunes 7 onto my computer many times and I keep getting this error that says "iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application". I have deleted all previous iTunes files from my computer (Windows XP) and I've restarted over and over again but it's still not working.

    That generally indicates that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
