  • It says it isn't installed

    when i click on itunes it says it isn't installed, and when i try to download an new version it says it cannot find the files to install . so then i tried to uninstall it and i got the same message cannot locate files
    some one please tell me how to fix this!!!
    thank you

    Thank you kindly.
    With that one, let's try the following procedure.
    First, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. If it goes, good. If it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to iTunes.
    Next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility.
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    Launch Windows Installer CleanUp ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"), find any iTunes and/or QuickTime entries in the list of programs in CleanUp, select those entries, and click “remove”.
    Next, we'll manually remove any leftover iTunes or QuickTime program files:
    (1) Open Local Disk (C:) in Computer or whichever disk programs are installed on.
    (2) Open the Program Files folder.
    (3) Right-click the iTunes folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion.
    (4) Right-click the QuickTime folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. (Note: This folder may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
    (5) Delete the QuickTime and QuicktimeVR files located in the C:\Windows\system32\ folder. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue. (Note: These files may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
    (6) Right-click on the Recycle Bin and on the shortcut menu, click Empty Recycle Bin.
    (7) Restart your computer.
    Now try another iTunes 7.5 install. Does it go through properly? If so, does iTunes start opening for you properly again?

    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.)

  • I can't install iTunes 10 since this isn't supported by Mac Os 10.4.11

    Help. I can't synchronize my iPhone 4g on my powermac G5 because I can't install iTunes 10 since this isn't supported by Mac Os 10.4.11. And I can't upgrade to mac os 10.5 because my computer processor (a PowerPC G5) does not support mac os 10.5.
    Does anyone know how to help me?

    Yes, call Apple and buy a copy of Leopard (10.5.x). Snow Leopard (10.6.x) only runs on Intel, Leopard does run on PowerPC.

  • My iTunes is saying that it isn't installed correctly and every time I uninstall iTunes and then install it again it still says that it is installed wrong. what should I do?

    Okay so my iTunes is saying that it is installed wrong so I followed directions on the apple website on how to uninstall itunes properly and then install it again but every time I install itunes again it just keeps saying that it is installed wrong and now I can't get to my music. How can I get iTunes back and working on my laptop?

  • IPod not showing up on desktop or in iTunes, thinking I have to re-install.

    My iPod isn't showing up when I plug it into my iMac G5 and going through the help menus, I've found that it suggests re-installing iTunes before trying to restore my iPod.
    I have a color screen 20 GB iPod that I purchased about a year ago.
    Now, will re-installing iTunes dump all my ratings and notes and cover art I've collected and modified over the past year?
    It seems to me that my iPod is full of songs I might not like to listen to as much and podcasts I'm never going to listen to in the first place, so it seems to me that I'd be better off just restoring the iPod instead.
    Any suggestions or people who have the same problem?
    I will reward helpful hints, and this will be posted on the iPod board as well. Thanks.
    iMac G5, 1.8GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   1 GB ram, no built in iSight (should have waited 3 months)

    Now, will re-installing iTunes dump all my ratings and notes and cover art I've collected and modified over the past year?
    No, it won't. Cover art is embedded in the song files and ratings and comments are stored in the 'iTunes library' file, which isn't replaced or deleted by re-installing iTunes.
    Before re-installing iTunes, you might read this article.
    It contains lots of useful information about fixing these kind of problems.
    Personally, I would try the 5 R's first (Reset, Retry, etc.)
    Hope this helps.

  • I just bought a new computer and when i click on itunes it says i need to install ASL.dll, but i'm scared if i instal it or reinstall itunes i will lose all the music i've bought from itunes, what do i do?

    HHHHHEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i just bought a new computer and when i click on itunes it says i need to install ASL.dll, but i'm scared if i do or re-install itunes i will lose all the music i have bought from itunes, what do i do?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    The music is stored on the iTunes library. This library isn't deleted when you uninstall or reinstall iTunes, so you will keep everything. Anyway, it's better to make a backup of the library. Apart from that, you can download the purchased music as many times as you want

  • I store my itunes library on an external drive shared between 2 computers and itunes on computer A isn't seeing or showing the songs I added using itunes on computer B.

    I store my itunes library on an external drive shared between 2 computers and itunes on computer A isn't seeing or showing the songs I added using itunes on computer B. How to fix this?

    I don't know if this is me adding files to iTunes when the external wasn't connected
    it is.
    is it OK to just keep deleting that library on the Air?
    i wouldn't - at least not until i
    mount the external
    point iTunes media folder location back to the external via preferences > advanced
    consolidate my library via file > library > organize library
    The ntfs hasn't seem to be causing any problems, but I've always wanted to know.
    in order for your Mac to write to NTFS drives, it needs some help by installing e.g. the NTFS 3G driver. apparently that or something similar is installed on your Mac already. preferably, it would be formatted for Mac but then windows machines would need to have e.g. MacDrive installed to recognize the drive.

  • ITunes doesn't work after I installed it for my new iPod video

    Hi,
    This is my problem:
    When I connect my iPod video to my computer( windowsXP) iTunes doesn't open up. If I start iTunes manually it's says this error:(normally in dutch) The needed software for communication with iPod isn't installed properly. Plz install again, so the software on iPod can be installed.
    So I reinstall iTunes, but this error still shows up.+ When I check on ITunes in one of the menus, it says: no iPod connected, but my iPod is connected to my computer.
    Can anyone find an explanation for this?

  • Itunes 11.1.1 will not install

    Have been trying now for two days to update itunes to 11.1.1 on a Windows 7 PC. Please don't refer me to your little "help" topics, b/c they don't work. I have played around in msconfig (itunes isn't even showing up there) and shut off my antivirus to no avail.
    The update is buggy. FIX IT.

    Sorry if I was rude, I was trying to post to Apple directly, but their whole "question/discussion" nonsense is confusing.
    iTunes will no longer update or install on my Windows 7 pc. All the suggestions Apple makes in other forums/answers/wth ever do not work, are not helping, and frankly make no sense.
    I'm just reverting back to earlier version and waiting for them to fix it with 11.1.2

  • 'm trying to set my ipad and it said the required software isn't installed

    I'm trying to set up my ipad dowload the new version of itunes and still when I connected it said that the required software isn't installed. Help

    First, try resetting your iPad.  Hold the home and on/off buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.  Do this while not connected to iTunes on your computer.
    If that does not help (it certainly won't hurt), let us know what version of iTunes you're running and on what type of computer (Windows or Mac).

  • Itunes wont open and when re-installed received this msg: Service Apple mob device failed to start.  You have insufficent privileges to start system svc.  Help?

    Itunes wont open and when re-installed received this msg: Service Apple mob device failed to start.  You have insufficent privileges to start system svc.  Help?

    Download Itunes from Apple.com, not from within Itunes.
    Redo the install, following the below procedure.   However, when you re-install Itunes,  right click and run the install as administrator.   For Win 7, you have to hold down the cntrl and shift keys when you right click and then "run as administrator" will be an option.
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Vista, Win 7 & 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.

  • I have problem with syncing in itunes and it stared since i installed new version of itunes.it stuck in backup step for houres.what shud i do?

    I have problem with syncing in itunes and it stared since i installed new version of itunes.it stuck in backup step for houres.what shud i do?

    So, in iTunes, when you look at the shuffle's content (in the sidebar) and click on the playlist under the shuffle, over to the right, the songs are in your desired order, correct?  Where do you look, or what do you do, that indicates the playlists are in alphabetical order?  Are you saying that when you play the songs while using the shuffle, they play in alphabetical order?
    If so, when you listen to the songs on the shuffle, are you using the playlist, or are you using the All Songs list? If you are in the default All Songs list, with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order (the middle position), the songs play alphabetically, I believe. 
    The 3rd gen shuffle uses VoiceOver.  If you are in the All Songs list, you need to use VoiceOver to switch to the playlist (see manual linked below for details).  When you are in the playlist (with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order), then the songs should play in playlist order.
    There are more details in the manual for the 3rd gen shuffle, which is online here
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_3rdGen_UG.pdf
    See page 22 for the section about setting up and using VoiceOver.  The part about switching playlists starts on page 23 (Using the Playlist Menu).
