My windows laptop is hanging up when trying to install latest update

I have vista and I' getting the same error as a previous question today on windows 7.  Do I need to uninstall & reinstall?

Yes - I just installed the latest updates on Saturday.  I went to that install/uninstall thing on Microsoft that you advised but when it came to uninstall itunes I stopped it - should I go ahead & do it?

  • HT201210 my iphone 3gs was erased when trying to install latest update - how to fix?

    I was trying to install the lastest itunes update to my iphone 3gs and got an error message after software was loaded.  Now my phone is a blank screen with the apple logo and itunes does not recoginze my phone.   Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    Did you manage to fix the issue?
    I have exactly the same issue as described above : I installed the update 5.1.1 on my iphone 3GS and since then, I can not turn it on anymore. In Itunes, I get an error 37 when I am doing a restauration and it stops.
    This error has nothing to do with firewall : I tried to restore the phone on several computers, including in an Apple reseller and it did not work anywhere.
    I spent several hours on phone with the hotline from Apple which arrived to the conclusion that it is a hardware issue, but the phone was working perfectly fine until I installed this update!

  • HT1923 When I try to uninstall iTunes I get a message saying iTunes 64 msi can not be located and I should enter an alternate path. How would I know where it it is? I get the same message when trying to install the update to iTunes 10.6.1.

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you 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", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • HT1926 when trying to instal itunes update i got an error, will downloading itunes again erase my current library?

    When trying to instal an itune update on my Pc i got an error message, should i download itunes again, and if i do so will it erase my current library?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (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.

  • "license file for this version could not be found" message when trying to install latest version of Firefox

    I keep trying to install Firefox 3.6.10, and it seems to work, but then when it comes time to accept the user agreement, that option is grayed out and I can only go back. In the Software License Agreement box is the following message: "The license file for this version could not be found. Please visit Firefox homepage for more information."

    Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.<br />
    Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    You can skip the step to create a new profile, that is not necessary for this issue.

  • Out of disk space when trying to download latest update to itunes

    I bought a couple of new songs and I cannot even download them to my IPhone 5, because it says that my iTunes needs an update. I tried to dowload the update and it keeps telling me that I am out of disk space. Anyone have a solution to this?

    Two things:
    1. That is not nearly enough of available space. At least 20 GBs is needed.
    2. FCP 4.5 HD is a PPC app; you are running it on a Intel Mac. Not compatible and you will have issues. I'm surprised you were able to install it.
