Please help cannot download itunes 10.5

i have been trying to update itunes to 10.5 but at the end of every installation it says there is a problem with this windows installer package. a program required for this install to complect could not be run ?

I found this fix and it worked for me:
"Control panel - add remove programs - right click apple software update - repair. then try install again - should work now."

Hi there, can anyone please help? Download itunes and it says The Itunes library .itl file is locked, or on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this file.

Hi there, can anyone please help? Download itunes and it says The Itunes library .itl file is locked, or on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this file.

Holding down the shift key while iTunes is opening. That will bring up the 'choose iTunes library' dialog. Select 'Choose LIbrary' from the choices and navigate to your music folder and iTunes music folder.
Or refer to this article:

Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
Now run the Utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"), select the "Apple Software Update" entry in the list of programs shown in Installer CleanUp, and then click "Remove".
Restart the PC and try another iTunes install.
Does it go through properly now?

Please help cannot open itunes

I just got this computer a few days ago. I have been spending my evenings getting everything set up and transferred from the desktop me and my sister used to share. So tonight I was getting my iTunes installed. After I installed iTunes, I imported the playlist, and then I updated to version 8.1. I believe the version from the external drive was 7.something. after I had it all set up I tried to play a song to see that all went well. when I tried to play a song it said I need to validate the computer, but my sisters e-mail came up. I figured it was because she got her ipod first and this file came from the old computer. I tried validating with my e-mail and it wouldn't work. I still thought it was the actual iTunes program giving me the problem so I decided to delete it and download it from online instead of the external drive. After I deleted it I realized that the problem was with the songs, since she bought them. I decided to re-install the itunes I had installed previously. I couldn't find it in the recycle bin so I re-installed the one on the external. when I did I got this error message "The file "i Tunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." and the program would not open. so I deleted it again and downloaded the new one from online. That one said it needed to be opened with an application, and I don't know what that means. So I tried a system restore and it said my system restore failed. Now i cannot get any iTunes installed and working on my computer. I tried looking for the file and couldn't find it. I was gonna delete the iTunes folder manually through "my computer" but then it said it might make some things not work right and I got scared. Please help me fix this.

i ended up doing a complete system recovery and got the old itunes off, but i still have the problem of getting "this file needs to be opened with an application" after i download itunes 8.1 setup

Please help - cannot complete itunes 6 installation

Here's my deal:
I have Windows 2000, service pack 4 on an IBM T22, with plenty of hard disk space left and I have had the older version of iTunes (5 i guess) on my computer since I upgraded about a year ago (got iTunes a little over a year ago with my mini iPod). I had trouble then, but somehow got it to work, until now, when I was prompted to upgrade (could not download music otherwise), so I tried to do that, but it failed. One of two things happens: either I get a message that says 1628: Failure to complete installation, OR it just stops installing and I get a box in the minimize bar at the bottom of my desktop that appears to be a dialogue box for QuickTime and iTunes, but that, when clicked on, does not appear (maximize) on my screen. I have now uninstalled QuickTime, iTunes, and my setup.exe, and have tried reinstalling, but the same two things keep happening. I fear that I have lost the ability to install, since the setup.exe is now gone from my desktop. Also, I already tried the suggestions about the 1628 error provided by apple (clearing temp files etc.) and nothing seems to help.
Please help me! I don't have a clue about what to do and am very very frustrated.

hi Kelsey!
It seems to hiccup right in the middle of the box that says "preparing InstallShield Wizard, which will guide you through the setup process / preparing to install" portion...and then it just stops.
gaah. okay, first check to make sure your Windows Installer engine is up to date:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
then let's try this again
b with all background applications switched off:
http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q108379
antivirus, antispyware, Cygwin and various other applications have been implicated with these hangs ... so i reckon it's safest to try to switch all of 'em off prior to the install.
keep us posted.
love, b

Help, cannot download itunes 7.5 to my XP windows, please help me

Hi, just purchased a new ipod shuffle gen 2 on the weekend. Have tried numerous times to download i tunes 7.5 but it keeps coming up with error message, itunes75setup.exe is not a valid win32 application. And it just wont go any further. This is very frustrating as i cant even play my new ipod. does anybody know how to help me??

Try downloading a copy of the installer to a different PC (preferably one in which an iTunes 7.5 install has already gone through successfully).
burn the iTunes75Setup.exe (installer) file to a CD-R (or copy it to an external harddrive, and carry the CD or ExHD back to your PC. Copy the iTunes75Setup.exe to your desktop (don't try to run the install from the exHD or CD), and then try starting the install by doubleclicking the iTunes75Setup.exe on the desktop.
Does that go through any better?

Cannot download itunes, error message says I am missing media accessibility.dll Can you help me?

I cannot download itunes on my PC. Error message says i am missing Media Accessibility.dll Can anyone help?

Hi, you may have resolved this issue already, but if not...
There should be one copy of MediaAccessibility.dll in the folder:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support (32-bit systems) or
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support (64-bit systems)
If you can locate the file, right-click on it and select Properties, then on theDetails tab it should have File Version - 48.1.0.11. If it has a different version number then it is out of date and is likely to be cause of the problem.
Please search your Programs Files and/or Programs Files (x86) folders for all copies of the file MediaAccessibility.dll - Any other copies of the file in different locations are likely to be out of date, but might be called in error by an executable file in the same folder, thereby causing the error.
Should you find more than one copy of MediaAccessibility.dll could you please let me know in which other locations it was found. This will let us more effectively help others with the same issue by suggesting where they should look. If you have the correct version, in the correct place, then deleting any others should fix your problem. This is similar to the QTMovieWin.dll issue dealt with in the first box of the user tip Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
If you don't have the correct version of the file then completely removing all components, deleting the named folders, and reinstalling as suggested in the second box of the user tip should work. You could try repairing Apple Application Support alone from the the Programs and Features or Add/Remove Programs control panel first as that would be quicker, but only if it works.

Hi Gurmo,
HRESULT: 0x80073712 means ERROR_SXS_COMPONENT_STORE_CORRUPT, and it is one of the error codes listed at this

I suggest you run the System Update Readiness tool and check if the error still persists.
There is a similar thread for your reference.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME REMOVE ITUNES SO I CAN RE INSTALL IT!

How Can I Remove and Unistall Itunes From My Computer I Went To "Add or Remove Programs" and Clicked Itunes "Change/Remove" and nothing happen! its still there same thing for quicktime and im trying to unistalled them because i dont have any were in my computer to click itunes to open! so its like i dont even have it but i cant download it till i remove that one on the add or remove program section but i cant because nothing happens CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME REMOVE ITUNES! FROM THAT LIST!

Well, you can do what I did. You can click onto "Start" and then "My Computer". From there, click onto Hard Disc Drive "C". A window will open that shows the folders that are present. Click onto "Program Files" and then another window will open. You should see both I-Tunes and Quicktime there. Right click onto each one and then click "Delete". That should work. When it's done, restart your computer.
If it doesn't work, hit the "control/alt/delete" keys at the same time and select "Processes". If they show up there, delete them from that list first and then repeat the above procedure.
Good luck. By the way, check out my post on "People with Problems, Read here". You'll find that there's many of us here that cannot make our I-Pod's work correctly because the software for them is HORRIBLE!

Cannot download iTunes 7.5

Cannot download iTunes 7.5. Getting message: "internet explorer cannot download iTunesSetup.exe from appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net. The connection with the server was reset."
Can you help please as trying to upgrade so that new nano can be loaded etc.

Hi,
Did you ever get this figured out? I'm having the exact same problem & none of the options will work (save this file now, run this program now or download this file later)...either way i get this message:
Windows cannot open this file:
File: MSN9.downloadhost
To open this file, Windows needs to know what program created it. Windows can go online to look it up automatically, or you can manually select from a list of programs on your computer.
(Then it gives me these choices)
Use the Web service to find the appropriate program.
Select the program from a list.
I can't seem to find solutions in either one of the two options. Can you help me? I had previously an older version of itunes installed w/o a problem but have since deleted all those files as well as quicktime in an effort to get the 7.5 version downloaded...unfortunately, that doesn't seem to have helped.
Thank you for any guidance!
