Problems installing iTunes on Windows XP

I have just had an error updating iTunes and had to reinstall on my Windows XP computer. I think I have done everything I need to but every time I try to reinstall it says it has completed in about 2 seconds but there is no sign of iTunes on my computer. Can anybody help please ?

Thanks JRSPNW I will have to give that a try. At the moment I just have not tried doing anything else it, but a system restore will probably be the route I will need to take eventually, or I will just carry on with out iTunes on my computer. The program has become such a pain the a$$. This version is the most user unfriendly it has ever been.

    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.

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error report suggests a similar problem to those outlined in the fist and third boxes and is probably the result of an outdated .dll file.

  • 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

    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.

  • Problems installing iTunes for windows

    Hi,
    Just bought a lovely 30Gb black ipod video...however i cannot seem to install iTunes. The route of the issue seems to be that I have Sonic Record Now cd burning software installed already on my machine (straight from the shop).
    When uploading for the first time using both the disc and from apple.com I got an error messages that said I had a conflict within the registry, something to do with my previously installed CD burning software - please re-install iTunes. When i removed iTunes my CD drive disappears and i have to do a system restore.
    I have tried this a few times with no success - so decided to try and remove the Sonic Record Now programme...when i used the disc after this I just got a standard error message "iTunes has encountered a problem and has to close"....
    I have not yet managed to download from apple.com again because i don't have internet at home...but I would imagine that i'll simply get the second error message again as above - i am really getting frustrated.
    I gather its not an isolated problem - and have seen a few solutions but all of these seem to depend on a successful download of iTunes from apple.com - something that i can't yet do because of the registry conflict.
    any ideas?
    thanks
    Mike.

    Also you might try just a quicktime standalone install.

  • HT1926 Problem Installing iTunes for Windows 7

    I get the message "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start when trying to instal. 'Verify you have sufficient priviledges to stsrt system.
    Options given are Abort, Retry or Ignore.
    Both Retry or Ignore give error message 'iTunes was not installed correctly. Error 7 (Windows error 14001).

    Please help !

    Hello Paul,
    Sorry to hear that iTunes is not installing on your computer.  I found a couple of articles I think may help with the error messages you are seeing. 
    I recommend starting with these steps:
    Remove and reinstall iTunes and AMDS
    If the issue continues after restarting AMDS, then you'll need to remove and reinstall AMDS and iTunes.
    Completely uninstall AMDS, iTunes, and all Apple software. Click the appropriate links below for steps:
    Windows XP
    Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Restart the computer.
    Download and install (or reinstall) the latest version of iTunes from www.apple.com/itunes. Installing iTunes will also install AMDS.
    Restart the computer.
    Start iTunes and connect the device. It should be recognized properly in Windows.
    You can find the full article here:
    How to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1567
    If you are still getting "Error 7" when trying to do this, I recommend following the steps in this article:

  • Problems installing itunes in windows 7

    I am completely unable to run itunes in windows 7 - it appears to download and install correctly. When I try to run it I get Error 7and Windows error 5. Quicktime does not run either. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling - no good. I have tried Microsoft Net repair that doesn't work either. Is there any way itunes can actually work on windows 7 at all?

    I cannot download iTunes using Windows 7 64 bit. It gets to 22% then just hangs there. Can anyone help me with this?

  • Having problems installing Itunes to Windows 7 Computer

    Hello, Can someone please help me!
    I've tried installling Itunes to my Windows computer since I've now got an Iphone. However, When I go to install It reaches the end of the installation but never allows me to click "Next", the Cancel button is still highlighted.
    If I click the cancel button, the update will not cancel. The box will just stay on the screen.
    I then noticed that on the "All Programs" section, it said "Apple software updater" - When clicking on it, it said something about the "parameter incorrect." So it couldn't perform the action. I think this is the problem but I dont know how to get round it.
    Could someone please give me a simple soloution!

    This hasn't seemed to work
    here are some visuals to help - it remains like this
    and when trying to click on the apple software update
