Problem installing iTunes 10.6 on Windows XP

I'm trying to install iTunes 10.6, but I get this error message every time:
"There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."
When I try to install the new version, it goes through the whole process of copying files, validating install, etc., but I get the error message at the end.
I've tried downloading a fresh copy of the file from the Apple web site but that didn't help either. I still get the same error message every time I try to install iTunes 10.6. (I currently have iTunes 10.2.1.1 installed on my PC.)
How do I get the new version to install successfully?

"There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."
Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?

Problems installing iTunes on 64-bit Windows PC

I cannot install iTunes on a new PC running Windows 7 (64-bit). I get an error message that says "The folder path 'iTunes Music' contains an invalid character." I cannot locate a folder named "iTunes Music" on my PC. If I use the control panel, I see a program iTunes, but it will neither run, repair, nor install. I get the same error message when attempting all of those.
Any suggestions?

Thanks for your help.
I have run both utilities, but still cannot install. It does not appear as if all components were completely removed, as directories with content still for iTunes, Bonjour, Apple Software Updater, and Apple Application Support under Program Files, Program Files (x86), and Program Data. (I don't have any other Apple software installed on this machine.)
When I run the install software, the error message has changed. I now get a message "Could not open key: UNKNOWN\Components\DA42BC89BF25F5BD0AF18C3B9B1A1EE8\C8FDA2211ADDC08499638CF8825 22B56. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key or contact your support personnel."
I am running the install as administrator, so should have sufficient privileges. I tried your user tip https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3581 to see if it resolved the issue, but am still getting the same key access error messages.

Problems installing itunes 7.2 for windows ?

I recently tried to update my itunes when prompted with 7.2
At fisrt itunes opened then it didn't recognise the ipod
and finally itunes didn't open at all.
i follwed the instructions from the manual i downloaded, and
removed all traces of itunes from my pc, now when i try to
download a new version of itunes it tells me it cannot create the directory as a file with this name already exists
and then gives me the following info
C\winnt\installer\ {553e56c3-7aa1-45fe-a2fc-2c43dc27f765}
I cannot find this file anywhere so please can anyone help
as i cannot get any form of itunes on my pc

I also had problems with installing recent iTunes.
One time I updated the iTunes that was not the same one I got with the iPod. What ended up happening was that my songs wouldn't play on iTunes and I couldn't put any song files on the library. I ended up reinstalling everything and also ended up losing all my songs which caused me to upload all over agian.
Now I have a couple of video podcasts I would like to see in my iPod but since I don't have the current iTunes, it won't transfer to my iPod. I don't want to install the recent iTunes because I'm afraid I'm going to have to do what I mentioned above. Anyone want to suggest something?

Try looking at the two previous discussions listed on the right side of this page with your same question.
Also, try searching/posting in the iTunes forum since you do not have an iPod problem.

Problem installing itunes on windows 8 64bit. Installation gets stuck on Status: (blank) literally blank

Problem installing itunes on windows 8 64bit. Installation gets stuck on Status: (blank) literally blank. I really need to install this since I have only 1 PC and i just bought the new iPhone 6.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

*Problems uninstalling itunes/quicktime after using windows install cleanup

I was having problems installing itunes/quicktime 7.6. Everytime I tried to install it it would say that it does not have a valid digital signiture. So one of the suggestions I saw on this forum was to install windows install cleanup and use it on itunes and quicktime. So I did but all it did is mess up my old itunes/quicktime. Now when I go to try and uninstall itunes and quicktime from the add and remove programs in the control pannel it does not even show itunes or quicktime in my program list. Any suggestions??

Ok, Update. I was able to remove itunes and quicktime manually after going into my windows task manager and to the processes tab and ended all processes involving itunes, apple, or quicktime. So now when I install itunes/quicktimes via apples site when it gets to the end it just disapears and nothing happens. I searched to see if it installed anything and it didn't, didn't even give me any reasons why. Can anyone help me with this?? It would help me a ton!
