Quicktime errors when installing itunes.

I've been trying to install itunes for the last couple of days and have folowed the instructions provided by apple. When I try tpo run the program I always get the following ' Quicktime error. Quicktime failed to initialise (error-2096). Please uninstall itunes , then reinstall itunes again.
I've done this abut half a dozen times and it's not working. Getting a bit fed up with the whole thing.
Anyone got any ideas??

You should find the compatibility tab if you are looking in the right place.
Could you confirm what you did.
Open My Comupter, then the c: drive
Open c:\Program Files\Quicktime
Right click on Quicktimeplayer.exe
Select Properties.
The compatibility tab should be right there.

TS3212 I get an apple application support error when installing itunes. It says uninstall and re-install. Does not work. same message. What is a solution?

I get an apple application support error when installing itunes. It says uninstall and re-install. Does not work. same message. What is a solution?

Is that an error 2 message?
If so, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Fix for VBScript Error When Installing iTunes/Quicktime on Vista

With GREAT THANKS to http://www.keathmilligan.net. I was able to fix this problem by performing the following steps:
The iTunes/QuickTime installer will fail with a "VBScript not installed" error on some installations of Vista. I'm not sure exactly what leads to this situation as it does not seem to affect all Vista users, but there is a relatively simple fix:
Click Start, All Programs, Accessories then RIGHT click on Command Prompt and select "Run as Administrator"
change directory to your windows\system32 directory
enter the following command:
regsvr32 vbscript.dll
This will re-register VBScript and allow the iTunes installer to run.
After almost pulling my hair out for a month, this worked like a charm and I was able to install iTunes/quicktime with the latest version and get to hear my music again after a month of trying everything. THANKS KEATH

Issue was very happily resolved with great thanks to Keath http://www.keathmilligan.net/node/139

QuickTime error when starting iTunes

I have a 30Gb Video iPod. I have a new laptop, and moved software over from previous laptop using PC Relocator. I get an error message when I try to start iTunes: "QuickTime version 7.0d0 is installed, iTunes requires QuickTime version 7.0.3 or later. Please reinstall iTunes." I removed both iTunes and QuickTime through 'Add/Remove Programs' in the control panel, and reinstalled iTunes from both the original install disk and from the iTunes website, and got the same error. I also reinstalled QuickTime version 7.0.3, and get the same error. Has anyone run into this problem and gotten it fixed?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Go here and rool down to the section "Clean up iTunes installer files on the computer" then disable any antivirus programs and reinstall iTunes from the net http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
If that does not nail the issue, try installing the standalone version of quicktime here http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html

"insufficient privileges" errors when installing iTunes 10.0 (Bonjour)

I attempted to install iTunes 10.0. Initially I used the auto-installer and I received the following errors:
"The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Program Files\Bonjour. The installation cannot continue. Log on as administrator or contact your system administrator."
Then the same error with the following file:
"C: \Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\com.yahoo.go.sync.client.resources\...\Windows."
I was given two options to either "retry" or "cancel" --"retry" just keeps throwing the error up. I was forced to click "cancel" both times.
Following hitting cancel twice I got an "installation interrupted" message telling me that the installation had failed.
Following the errors recommendation, I logged off and relogged on as the administrator. Then I downloaded iTunes 10.0 from the Apple web site and attempted to install it manually as the administrator while logged on as the administrator (right click the program "run as Administrator"). I received all the same errors and the same failed installation.
When I attempt to go into the program files and alter the privileges to bonjour or the Apple\mobile device support I get a “you do not have permission to view or edit this object’s permission settings” even when logged on as the administrator. It appears that both are Apple programs probably installed with a previous version of iTunes so I am not too sure why the tight security and why I do not have the ability to modify them.
I am running Windows 7 (32bit). Any assistance with getting iTunes 10.0 installed correctly would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there, this is what had to do.
First a bit background. I got the same errors. Insufficient privies for this and that. Logged in as Admin, same problem. Gave my user account Admin rights, still same problem.. now it actually said only 'Creator/Users' can install etc.
So long story short deleting, rebooting, magic... all failed.
1. I uninstalled all Apple software!!
2. yes all of it. Uninstall programs. Uninstalled Apple stuff, then Bonjour then Quick time.
3. tried to delete folders that were left behind, got smacked with insufficient rights to do so.
4. Logged in as Admin (that will teach ya Win 7)
5. Used Unlocker and LockHunter. I was able to unlock/kill process of some files and was able to delete some folders, but not all (grrrr)
6. disabled AntiVirus/Spyware program
7. that allowed me to delete all folders (wth? .. okay then)
8. went into registry and Searched for 'Apple'
9. fainted when I saw hundreds of Apple entries.
10. deleted all obvious 'Apple', 'MobileMe' and 'Quicktime entries', take care not to delete 'Applet...' stuff. Not the same. Like I said I only got rid of obvious Apple software stuff.
11. finally I ran CCleaner (great app, get it and donate a couple of $$) and had it scan, back up and clean my registry.
12 rebooted and logged in as me/user
13 checked /program files to make sure bonjour, apple and quicktime was really gone
14. downloaded latets itunes
15. installed itunes, did my back ups and updated ipod software
man that only took me a couple of hours

ISScript Error When Installing Itunes

Hi I have had an Ipod before and have Itunes 4.8 installed on my comp. Recently I've tried to install a newer version of Itunes onto my comp (Version: 6.0.1.3) and I get through most of the steps untill the Installer starts to remove the backup files and I am issued a Itunes error:
The Install Script engine on this machine is older than the version required to run this setup. If available please install the latest version of ISScript.msi or contact your support Personnel for further assistance.
Then the Install script error is followed by a Feature Transfer Error stating:
Error: -1603 Fatal Error occurred during instaltion. Consult Windows Installler (MSI.CHM) or MSDN for more info.
So, I went to the Installshield website and found this article here: http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q108322
I downloaded the one that says version six, being that is the version I am trying to install and that is what the procedure told me to do. (You'll understand when you go to the site)
Well the install of the ISScript goes fine but when I reboot and try to install Itunes again, I recieve the same errors as before.
Can anyone help me? Please help because I JUST ordered my Ipod Video today and it will be here soon.
Also, I tried to uninstall Itunes, but when I go to the Add/remove Programs, Itunes, nor Ipod Updator is not listed. Only Quicktime is. I was able to remove quicktime.
Please help.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read this

Hey Deb, wow I thought I had fixed the problem. The guy I talked to from Apple said it would work fine as long as I installed Service Pack 2 and guess what? It didnt. I contacted Apple again today and they're giving me a new response saying its a "Windows" problem and they can'thelp me out. So I went to installshield and typed in the second error I'm recieving, the 1603 error and It gave me a list of what I can do to troubleshoot it, yet I still have the problem. So I'm really not sure what I can do, I guess I will see what happens when my Ipod comes and I try installing Itunes from the cd. Maybe it will work.........(ya right) O well sorry for getting your hopes up but keep trying on it. I have no other ideas of how to fix this. Keep in touch!

Quicktime error when opening itunes why?

I have used itunes for a while with a Nano, i recently got an iphone. Now no matter wht i do i get a quicktime error. It says Quicktime was not found. I have a hp with windows 7. I have deleted about 6 times and reinstalled. I have cut off all protection running. I have followed the instruction on this web site. Please help!

For those reading this who do not have a QuickTime settings icon visable in their Control Panel window - look to the top left of the Control Panel window and click on Classic View.
The QuickTime icon will be visible.
I did have K-Lite but I installed it as part of WMPod after I had all this palarva, thinking I would then be able to sync via Windows Media Player. Not so, Windows Media Player did not recognise the plug in - did not have it listed in the options windows.
When I double clicked on the QuickTime icon in Control Panel (classic view) I got this message;
An exception occurred while trying to run "C:\WINDOWS\system32\shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\Quicktime.cpl",Quicktime"
I had in fact deleted what I thought were duplicate QT plugins (there were half a dozen in the Programs\Internet Eplorer folder and more in Mozilla).
So I downloaded QuickTime (again) and selected repair once the installation window was up. Double clicked on QuickTime in Control Panel again.
Same message again.

Not a lot of documentation on that one, I'm afraid, but there's some general principles troubleshooting we can try with it that might get us moving forwards.
(1) Do you currently have a copy of the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package installed on that PC? If so, try downloading the following security update:
[Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update|http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=766a6af7-ec73-4 0ff-b072-9112bab119c2&displaylang=en#filelist]
Does iTunes install for you after applying that update?
(2) If no joy there, head into your Windows Update and click on the Update History. Have a lot of Updates also been failing for you recently? If so, doubleclick on the entries for the failed updates to bring up more information on each. What error codes appear for you for the failed updates? (Precise spelling, please.)

Error when installing itunes 10 on windows 7 64 bit

why do I keep n getting the error messages when i try and install itunes on windows 7 64 bit. But sometimes it will install but once it gets done it say that something is not install I need to uninstall and reinstall itunes..... is there something I need to do to get this to work....

HRESULT:0x800736FD
It's rarer to see these on Windows 7 than it is on Vista. Somtimes they're a bit easier to deal with on 7, too.
First, head to Windows Update and see if you can update the PC. If you can, and you collect updates without any errors, try another iTunes install.
If you get errors installing Windows Updates, double click on the failed updates in your Update history to bring up a small window containing alphanumeric codes for the erros. Are they also 800736FDs, or are you getting other error codes?

IPod Service error when installing iTunes 7.3.1

When I tried to upgrade to iTunes 7.3.1, towards the end of the install it said that it couldn't install iPod Service. I've tried erasing my Temp directory and turning off iTunes Helper when installing, but nothing works. Help!

Hmmmm. What's the precise text of the message you get mentioning the iPod Service? There's a couple that i'm familiar with, but the way you describe your error makes it sound a bit different from those ones.

Error when installing iTunes 9.0.2

Hi all
I'm trying to update iTunes but whenever I start installing it, it stops saying "Invalid Drive: E:\".
I don't have an E:\ drive and I pointed the install to C:\Program Files\iTunes as always.
Any ideas??

I'm trying to update iTunes but whenever I start installing it, it stops saying "Invalid Drive: E:\".
That can sometimes happen if there is an error in the Windows Installer database as to where one of the files to be uninstalled is currently located. The installer looks for an item on (in your case) the E drive, doesn't find an E drive at all, and gets horribly confused ... and you get an Invalid drive message.
When that happens, we can sometimes get past it by putting an E drive on the system.
Do you have an external drive or a thumb drive of some description? (An iPod in manual mode would do fine ... anything that shows up in your "My Computer" as a drive would be fine.)
If so, plug the external drive in. Check the drive letter it gets assigned in "My Computer".
(1) If the drive letter the external is assigned is E, try another iTunes install (install iTunes to its standard default location, not onto the E).
If the drive letter the external is assigned is not E, change the drive letter to E using Disk Management, using the following steps:
Right-click My Computer, and select "Manage"
Click "Disk Management".
In Disk Management, right-click the external drive and select "Change Drive letter and paths ..."
Click "Change".
Select "E" and click okay.
Now try another iTunes install (install iTunes to the default location, not onto the E).
Does that get you past the "Invalid Drive E" message?

Error when installing iTunes. Cannot connect iPod Touch

I recently bought an iPod Touch. When I install iTunes, I get the following error-
"An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'microsoft.vc80.CRT', Public Key Toke='1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b',Type='Win32', version='8.0.50727.762' HRESULT: 0x8007054F"
Because of this error, the installer is unable to install Apple Mobile Device Center, and I am unable to synch my iPod Touch. I have spoken to Apple support numerous times with no success. They finally referred me to Microsoft. Microsoft refers me back to Apple, and there is nothing I can find online regarding the error.
Please help!

It does seem to look more like a Microsoft error than an Apple/iTunes error... have you tried installing iTunes in a new user account? If not, go into your Control Panel > User Accounts and follow the instructions to create a new admin account. Once you've created it, restart the PC and log in to it. See if you can download and install iTunes there.
