My pc will not allow me to un-install or install a newer version of iTunes.
When I try un-installing from programs and features it says filepath iTunes64/setup.exe or iTunes64.msi is not available, please verify that the file path exists. I have no idea where to find this or if it even does exist, I really just want iTunes un-installed from my pc. I've also tried to install a new veriosn of iTunes from the apple website and it goes through the installer and I get the same errors, at the very end it says the old version of iTunes could not be removed. Due to all of this I cannot connect my iphone or ipod to iTunes because nothing works. PLEASE HELP!
(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

hi - my Mu was "buggy" and would not update - so i threw the APP in the trash - but now CC will not allow me to Re-Install because it thinks i already have the APP - any advice?
restore your app from the trash and then properly uninstall.
if that fails, CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed -
I built an ad using layers saved it and then converted it to a jpeg. Now when I go into elements 11 to do anything else it will not allow to copy and paste to create a new layer. What am I missing?
You know that you lost the layers when you saved it as a jpeg, right? But you're saying you can't add layers to the jpeg now when it's open in the editor? Go to Image>mode and be sure it's RGB, for starters. Are all the commands in the Layer menu grayed out?

Itunes will not launch, it shows message of "itunes library .itl" can not be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes. I tried opene it in save mode but I had the same problem.
If you still have an issue you may have to see about using the iTunes version (application) included with Snow Leopard 10.6 from the installer or an another one if available online, and see if that will install.
Sometimes you may have uninstall the bits left in your system by the earlier (or later) iTunes installers; as they all leave a trace and these can stop a different version of iTunes from being installed.
Not sure if the following site/link will tell the method...
•Apple - Support - iTunes - install & update:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/install/
•Troubleshooting iTunes installation on Mac OS X:

Good luck & happy computing!
ps: i see you resolved this issue. it's magic! -
When I launch iTunes on the PC, iTunes will not connect to Airplay speakers. Only after a new start of iTunes a connection is established.
Thank you for the suggestion, but the 'clean' install of iTunes (which I did twice) didn't do the trick.
Anybody else have a clue?
I spoke with Apple Care, who was also stumped. They think it might be a hardware issue (but were probably just giving up on working with me because it was free service/I haven't paid the $50). Still seems awfully coincidental that my Airport (1st Gen - about 4 years old) would stop being able to stream music through iTunes simultaneously with the iTunes update... -
I found information on how to transfer my itunes library to a new computer. I am going to use an external hard drive for this to transfer my itunes folder to the new computer.
I will then download and install a new version of itunes on my new computer.
My question is this. When I do this, will itunes have all my album artwork for all my library? My library has a lot of my own music and I have spent quite a bit of time copying album artwork that itunes did not add. I am really hoping I don't have to do this again!
Thanks for your help!If you follow the directions in this Link...

'm having a problem with downloading and installing the new version of itunes for windows (11.1.4) I have done everything the troubleshooting article has said and it is still not working properly. I have even done a repair to see if that works and it has not. Has anyone else found a new way to get it working?

when double click itunes icon it shows " The file itunes library.itl can not be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes" so what can i do?
Unless you have attempted to downgrade to an older version of iTunes this is likely to be a sign of a corrupt library. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash.

I tried repairing iTunes through the control panel but there is a new message that "the file 'itunes library.itl' could not be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes"
Unless you deliberately downgraded iTunes this may be a sign of a corrupt library. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash.

I can not install the new version of itunes.
Everytime I try to install the new version of itunes my system locks up. I am logged in as administrator so I know that is not the problem. Any suggestions?
FYI
I had to turn off my anti-virus completely to get the install to work.

There is no way to change the page setup options in Safari when printing a PDF. Honestly? Seeing as the solution is to switch to Firefox and adjust page setup options there, then restart Safari, from now on I will just never open Safari in the first
