What's the precise text of that error message, please? (There's a few different ones I can think of that you might be getting.)

Trouble installing itunes onto Windows 8 laptop

Hi, I'm having issues installing itunes onto my windows 8 laptop. It downloaded fine, eventually after I found the right folder! But when I go to open the setup file it doesn't do anything. I looked in the task manager and saw the itunes installer was actually there but still not doing anything?? I've tryed running it as an administrator, deleting it all and starting again etc. Running out of ideas as I'm at the limit of my knowledge, any help would be great.

Hmmmm.
Any better luck if you try a manual uninstall of the GEAR drivers prior to the iTunes install?
For a link to instructions, see solution 3 from the following document:
iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install
(Fingers crossed they've got Windows 8 instructions up now.)

The installer encountered problems before iTunes could be configured.

Hello there JadeMB,
From what you are describing here, it sounds like you may have the 64 Bit version of Windows 8 so the 32 Bit installer for iTunes will not work.
Here is the download for the 64 bit version of iTunes:

Repair your Apple Sofyware update.
Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install

Installing iTunes onto Windows RT 8.1

Hi
Is is possible to install itunes onto Windows RT 8.1 (Microsoft Surface Device)
I have tried downloading the latest versions of both the normal and x64 editions but both come up with "this app cant run on your pc"
I have also tried running as an administrator but doesnt help.
Any ideas or is it just not compatible with RT?
Thanks

RT is a watered-down version of 8 that only runs apps designed for it (like apps running on iOS). Only full windows 8 can run iTunes.

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 installing iTunes with Windows 8

Hi,
I have recently purchased a laptop with Windows 8. I have appeared to have installed iTunes but when I open it I get an error message saying the following:
Apple application support was not found. Apple application support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again. Error 2 (windows error)
I have tried installing it and re-installing but this has not helped
I have seen similar questions (and answers) on this forum but I am totally confused by the answers. Could anyone provide with a very clear, jargon-free solution to this problem?
Any help is much appreciated
Ali

The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if a component such as Apple Application Support won't install normally.

HT201413 I Installed iTunes on Windows XP laptop, connected my iPad 3. When opening iTunes I only get the list LIBRARY STORE and PLAYLIST. But I can not see a tab "devices" where mu iPad appears??

HI, I need help to transfer a vidoe from my laptop Windows XP to iPad3. Installed iTunes. Opened iTunes, Connected PC and iPad. iTunes does not show iPad under a "Devices" category ? Why?? How do I transfer the vidoe. PC does show pictures that are on the iPad when I open the iPad files.

You can only add music to iTunes Match from your iTunes library on your computer, not from your iOS device. If you have music on your iPad that is not on your computer, you'll have to import it to your iTunes library on your computer to add it to iTunes Match.
Music purchased from the iTunes store can be imported directly to your iTunes library by authorizing your computer for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the music (in Store>Authorize This Computer), then connecting the iPad to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. Music from other sources will require using 3rd party software to transfer to your computer, such as Touch Copy.

Problem installing CS5 on Windows 7 laptop

I have CS5 on my Windows 7 desktop. Now I want to install CS5 on my Windows 7 laptop. Since it's an upgrade, it won't install. I have a CS4 upgrade, and a full version of CS3. Do I need to install the full CS3 version first, then the CS4 upgrade, and then the CS5 upgrade?

You can directly install the CS5 upgarde , no need to have the CS4 and CS3, all you need is serial Number of the CS4 to install the upgrade.

Problems installing iTunes on Windows Vista

I have searched these and other forums. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes NUMEROUS times. I have cleaned the registry, tried Windows Fix-it, tried to repair Apple Application Software. I have updated the Microsoft.Net Framwork. I continue to get the same error. The software says that it has loaded successfully, but when I try to open the software, I get the following message:
"The procedure entry point AVCFURLAssetInheritURIQueryComponentFromReferencingURIKey could not be located in dynamic link library AVFoundationCF.dll"
My only choice then is to click ok. When I do that, I get a second error message:
"iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes Error7 (Windows error #127).
Can someone please help me with the correct fix for these errors or some other ideas of how to get iTunes correctly installed on my computer. I have spent HOURS in the last week researching and re-installing and am at my wits end!

The error report suggests a similar problem to those outlined in the fist and third boxes and is probably the result of an outdated .dll file.
