ITunesSetup.exe stalls at 7%

I just bought an iPhone 4 and need to set it up by plugging it into iTunes. But I had to update iTunes - it wouldn't let me as it kept saying that i had to 'manual download.'
So I totally deleted iTunes, QuickTime, Bonjour and any other program that is used with iTunes. I'm now trying to download iTunes from the start and it stalls at or around 7% every time. Getting close to 20 installs nows. Can someone please help me

Hi Todd and Margo,
Thanks for your feedback and glad to hear that it worked on Windows 7.
And yes, Windows 8.1 media creation tool has system requirement which is only supported on Windows system (Windows 7 and further version). Depends on network and software environment it might take more or less time to work properly.
Thanks for your solution and we will mark it so other user who has similar issue can see that.
Regards

ITunesSetup.exe download stalls at exactly 3.1mb

Hi,
I am trying to download iTunesSetup.exe onto my new windows xp desktop. the file stops downloading at exactly 3.1mB out of 36mb or so. Any ideas? there have also been some other unrelated downloads that have stalled. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

there have also been some other unrelated downloads that have stalled.
what were the other downloads? (wondering here if that could give us a heads up on the itunes issue.)

Itunessetup.exe wont open

Hello,
I had been using iTunes version 8.2.0 i think and it worked fine with my ipod classic and music etc. when the version 9 update came i tried to update but it always got to about 70% and stop saying "Itunes+Quicktime" has a invalid signature.
I recently got an ipod touch so i needed version 9 to sync my itunes with it. itunes still always got that error when updating though so i uninstalled it and downloaded the new version from the apple website it seemed to download fine but when i went to open it to install. I got a prompt that it doesn't have a valid signature and may be dangerous software am i sure i want to install, i did yes and my computer acted like it was loading but then did nothing.
I have googled and went through all the forums related and have tried all the solutions ive found... empty temp files, temp internet files, restart, download thorugh different internet program, allow through firewall, etc. etc.
I really want my music and movies on my new ipod touch and would really like to listen to my music again if anyone has any advice on what i can do to get my itunes working again please help.
Thank you, Jaggedrock

Hey Paul,
Thanks for the advice and links.. i connected my computer straight to the modem but still get the same problem. From my friends computer i put the itunessetup.exe version 7.1 on a flashdrive and downloaded the newest version from his internet and put it on there also. the version 9 now has a "Itunessetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application" error.
The version 7 though did open good and install, but i cant open it cause my itunes library was created by a later version (8.2, my computers old itunes)
I tried to update now through my router and directly through my modem, but now when it looks for updates i get "The apple software update server could not be found. Check your internet settings and try again" i have internet good on both through my router and direct. Any advice on what to do now to fix it?
Thanks, Jaggedrock

In the course of your troubleshooting to date have you worked through the following document?
iTunes: Windows reports that "iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application"

ITunesSetup.exe won't download

The latest version of iTunes wouldn't update properly, so I followed the instructions on this site to totally remove iTunes and any associated programs, restarted my computer (Windows 7), and tried to download iTunes from scratch. As soon as I click on the "Download Now" button, I get the "Thank you for downloading iTunes" screen. THEN the dialog box opens to ask me if I want to save iTunesSetup.exe. I click on "Save File", and the dialog box goes away. That's it. Nothing else happens. I get no further confirmation that the installer has downloaded, and I can't find it on the computer ANYWHERE.
How do I force the installer to actually download?

That version is quite old now, though its fine if you don't have a device the requires a newer version for syncing or want to use the latest features. Should you want to bring things up to date howver, then for general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

Itunessetup exe

I have had itunes previously installed on this computer, it was working fine until when it said it wasn't installed properly and some files were missing please reinstall. I Uninstalled everything to do with itunes and apple products as it had said on this site i then tried reinstalling but the itunessetup.exe won't unpack/install.
I have downloaded itunes ver 10.0.1 a few times from the apple/itunes website here but it won't unpack to install. I have also tried to do extract files from the itunessetup.exe but it says the file is corrupt.
When i double click the setup file a little bar comes up to show progress of the unpacking but it goes no further then a quarter of the way across.
I have deleted all temporary files like it said somewhere else on this site and still doesn't work.
No error messages come up at all

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 not a valid WIN32 Application????

I've been deployed to Afghanistan for the past 13 months and have another 4 to go. I'm trying to download Itunes 7.0.2 and when I go to install it I get an error that reads ITunesSetup.exe is not a valid WIN32 application. What the **** does this mean. I only have a couple of days to get this fixed and my Ipod crashed with that RavMon virus lastnight. Anyone please help

I had the very same problem with installing, and have no idea what it means. I've searched all over support, and asked the very same question about 4 months back.
One odd thing about it, though. It didn't seem to make a difference when installing. The installer would get partially finished, and the error would appear. The installer would then start "rolling back actions" and when you would think it would close, it would start back up again. I have no idea why, but the installation completed normally, and my itunes works fine.
If it doesn't work the first time, try it a couple more times. That's what happened with me.

Itunessetup.exe removal

Yesterday I bought a new laptop with Windows 7. I am not very computer savy and the first time I attempted to install itunes last night I saved the 32 bit version of itunessetup.exe file on my desktop, when i tried to install it, an error message appeared saying i was downloading the 32 bit version and my system required the 64 bit version.
I couldn't worked out how to remove the itunessetup.exe file from my computer so I deleted it from my desktop and then deleted it from the recycle bin.
Was this the best way to remove the file? it was quite large maybe 89MB i don't want it clogging up my memory.
I have since downloaded the correct version of itunes without a problem, although reading other peoples comments I forsee a few further problems!

Was this the best way to remove the file?
Yep, that was perfectly fine. The iTunesSetup.exe is just an installer file (not a program file). So once you've done an install and don't need it any more, you can delete it just like you'd delete (say) a Word document you didn't want to keep a copy of.

"itunessetup.exe" will try to save but disappear instead

im trying to reinstall itunes, i click download and the webpage changes to the thank you for downloading screen and a window pops up saying i am opening "itunessetup.exe" and asks if i want to save it, it only gives "save" and "cancel" as options, so i click save, and it goes away and nothing else happens??????

This is also happening to me so there must be a fix because it's been nearly a year since you had the exact same problem. No matter where I try to save the file it just dissapears into thin air.

Itunessetup.exe is not a valid win32 application?!? help!

has anyone else been getting an error message when trying to upgrade to itunes 7 that says something to the effect of "itunessetup.exe is not a valid win32 application" ???
does anyone know what this means or how i can fix it??

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
