My itunes won't download because of older itunes software

I've tried to redownload itunes on to my computer after it was reimaged, and it wont allow me to download it because of old itunes software. Anyone know how to fix the problem? I've tried to delete any old itunes update software remaining on my laptop, but it wont delete.

Probably could be some residue in registry. For windows 7 see support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Did I see XP? There is a similar tool (no longer supported by microsoft) available on the web called windows installer cleanup utility. It allows you to inspect the registry. With EXTREME CARE delete any entries containing the words  iTunes, Quicktime, Bonjour

    Hi buckirich,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  It sounds like you may need to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service.  This article has instructions for doing this:

    If that doesn't resolve the issue, I would recommend trying a thorough uninstall and reinstall of iTunes as described here:

  • ITunes 10.4 won't download because it has an invalid signature

    iTunes 10.4 won't download because it has an invalid signature

    That typically indicates that the installer is getting damaged during the download, linda.
    What browser did you use to download the installer? If you were using IE, can you get a working installer if you use Firefox instead (or vice versa)?

    I have the same problem. It is only with tv shows and only with programs I have downloaded after the software update.
    Apple support sent me the above link too....but it doesn't solve the problem...my computer is authorized and the content is in my library and will play on my Mac air, but it will not sync the tv shows, it keeps saying my computer isn't authorized for it.
    No answers here, but you are definitely not alone with this issue.

  • ITunes won't install because an older version of iTunes cannot be removed

    I'm running on Windows XP.
    I had tried to update my iTunes a few days ago and it was failing because it complained about iTunes.msi. I tried to uninstall and it had the same complain. So I manually removed it and started to remove all references to apple and iTunes in my registry. After that, it no longer showed up in my add/remove applications but if I try to install iTunes (latest or an older version), it complains that it can't install because it can't remove an older version of iTunes.
    I downloaded Windows Install Clean Up, but it doesn't list iTunes in there or anything that looks like it might be it. I've tried a number of registry cleaners but still no luck. Any ideas? It's obviously finding some information about my old iTunes install in there somewhere, but it can't figure out how to remove it. I wish it had some kind of debugging mode where it would tell me why it thinks I have iTunes installed still.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Ace ... I try not to post links to alternate locations for CleanUp downloads, because that tends to lead to the download location being shut down. (Happened twice for me the day after it was removed from the Microsoft Downloads Center.)
    Assuming you've got trouble with an iTunes .msi file, here's a copy of my now-standard spiel on hunting down, installing and using CleanUp:
    These sorts of msi-related troubles have gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes 9.2 again. Does the install go through properly this time?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

  • ITunes won't download because MSVCR80.dll is missing

    I have had an iTunes account, and have much music on file.  I have recently been unable to access it because MSVCR80.dll is missing.  It said to uninstall my iTunes, which I did, but now the new version still won't download.
    Help, anyone??

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • I can browse the store and even purchase music but it won't download because I don't have the privilege to make changes. What?

    I had no problem being connected to the store and browsing.  I eventually bought a CD but it won't download it.  It won't download podcasts either.  It tells me that I don't have the privilege to do so and to connect my network settings.  This is the first time I'm using my MacBook Pro with iTunes.  What is wrong?

    As it says on the page that you posted from :
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
    Why it's like that I don't think that Apple have said (these are user-to-user forums). If you haven't downloaded it on your iPad then have you checked to see if you can download it on your computer's iTunes (Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option) or Apple TV ?
    If it doesn't show on either of them then you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will let you download it on a different computer/device or refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com

  • ILife won't install because there is no software to install

    This is essentially the error message I get when trying to install iLife 09. I have updated my OS with the latest updates. I have rebooted. I get thru most of the install interactive stuff (like having to choose an install location) and then it starts to run the install process. About a minute later it comes back and tells me Installer Failed.
    The Installer could not install the software because there was no software found to install.

    Sounds like a faulty disk. Will it work on another machine?

  • ITunes won't download because my computer isn't "modified"?

    Okay. So when I got my iPad and started syncing things, my iTunes just didn't work after that.
    Being the stupid idiot I am, I ended up just deleting off my whole computer.
    Now, I cant install it because of my system not being modified.
    I did a system restore and uninstalled all the Apple things I had in my computer and still nothing works :c.
    Is there anything else I can do?
    ( I run on Windows 7, and Im not sure if I got 32 or 64. I got this laptop back in December 2011 )

    I have a brand new Dell computer and a new nano, I get the same message. I have uninstalled 3 times with the same result. I can successfully download version 4 and version 6 of itunes, but I need version 7 to get my ipod to work. All Apple said to do was to uninstall and try again, very helpful....not. Why is this acceptable, to buy something that won't work?

  • How do I remove a film that won't download because of shortage of space even though l pay £2.99 per month for extra  200gb.I tried removing most of my apps and my photos basically I removed everything on this iPad and I am still frigging stuck with t

    Buying extra iCloud storage has given you extra space for your backups, it doesn't give you extra space on your iPad for downloading content. Your current free space on your iPad is shown in Settings > General > About > Available - the film's size should be shown on its description page in the store (HD films can be over 5 gig).
    If you want to stop it downloading then does it show in the Downloads tab in the iTunes store app - if it does then does swiping/dragging across it from right-to-left give you a Delete button on it ? And/or does it show in Settings > General  Usage > Videos, and if it does can you delete it from there ?
    You could also try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support and see if they will refund you for the rental, or grant you a re-download so that can download it on your computer's iTunes instead : http://reportaproblem.apple.com

  • Adobe flash won't download because I forst have to close Mozilla Firefox How do I do that

    when I go to Comcast and try to watch any video it says that I must install Adobe Flash Player first. so I try and get thru all the screens except the last....which says: The installer will automatically continue when the conflicting applications are closed: Mozilla Firefox.
    Well closing it shuts everything off because I am using it to run my site. This is sort of " Catch 22 " . Strange--- when I go to MSN and then bring up comcast I can view the videos. But I use Morningstat and other sites like MSM.com and videos are blocket there also with the same must download Adobe Flashplayer and I get blocked by that same screen. So how do I block you and keep you on so I can download this Adobe Flashplayer? I am not a computer genius. [email protected]

    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />
    See this: <br />
