Registering Modules

Someone help please! I have been trying to install iTunes since Christmas Day and keep having the same problem. When I am installing, the installer screen freezes on "Registering Modules." I have uninstalled and completely deleted SpyCatcher, but it didn't help. I have deleted and redownloaded iTunes and QuickTime about a thousand times. Does anyone have a solution?

... afraid i do know what you're talking about. but we've been having a reasonable amount of success recently with getting past this one.
the best place to start is with the following document:
iTunes 7 or later for Windows Installation stops responding while "registering modules"
... but if no joy there, and if you have SpyCatcher installed on the PC, try uninstalling SpyCatcher altogether prior to attempting an itunes install. if the itunes install then goes through properly, you can then reinstall SpyCatcher.

  • Installing Safari on windows XP Pro Hangs at trying to Registering  Modules

  • ITunes installation stuck at 'Registering modules'

    Hi can someone please help?
    When I try installing iTunes on my SONY VAIO laptop.
    It gets stuck as 'Registering modules'
    I've tried several times, but no joy
    I’ve just purchased ‘an easy to use’ ipod and I can’t use it, I’m not a happy shopper

    I looked up troubleshooting tips from this site and followed them to a T. I did pretty much everything I could find that was suggested (disabling all antivirus and personal firewall measures, disabling all non-critical windows components/processes, clearing out temporary files, deleting/removing previous installations, etc.)
    just doublechecking. do you have SpyCatcher installed on that PC? if so, have you tried uninstalling SpyCatcher altogether prior to the itunes install?

  • Error Code 2755 and hang-up at "Registering Modules"

    So a few days ago I decided to download iTunes 7, and everything in the installation seemed to be going fine until it stopped for about half an hour at "Registering Modules: iPodUpdaterExt.dll". I cancelled the installation, but iTunes worked anyway, and I thought that maybe it wouldn't really be an issue. I was wrong.
    I can't update the software on my Nano to the 1.2 version because the installation never really finished. And when I tried a few more times to re-download the installation files, it didn't work, gave me this error code 2755, and a little note popped up saying the installation encountered an unexpected error before it could be completed.
    If anyone could give me any advice, that'd be fantastic.

    This is the exact same problem that I'm having currently, Right now, I'm in the installation process for iTunes 7 and it has been taking a while to move on past "Registering Modules". I did the same thing before and cancelled the installation because it wasnt moving on, and later opened iTunes 7 to find it worked fine. Unfortunately, it didnt allow my iPod to get updated and nopw I have iPod games that are sitting around and need to get onto my iPod. Can someone please explain what is going on with the "Registering Modules" process of the installation?

  • Itunes Install Crashes when it gets to Registering Modules status

    Appreciate any help someone could offer me on this. I've had the same thing happen several times. Every time I try to install the new version it gets stuck at this status. I can't figure what the problem is.
    I've gone to the Microsoft update page to make sure I had the most recent version of the service pack 4 and still it didn't finish the installation.
    Thanks for the help

  • Registering modules hang

    I bought a brand new iPod (with a color display & video capabilities) to replace my old iPod. The new iPod came with no installation software - it said you needed to download it from the website. OK, fine, I can do that and did do that.
    I tried to install it. It hangs (aka: freezes) when it gets to the end of the installation, right at the "registering modules" portion. I looked up troubleshooting tips from this site and followed them to a T. I did pretty much everything I could find that was suggested (disabling all antivirus and personal firewall measures, disabling all non-critical windows components/processes, clearing out temporary files, deleting/removing previous installations, etc.)
    In the end: I still can't install iTunes, I still can't install iPod updater let alone use my brand new iPod. FWIW I'm not computer illiterate but I just /do not/ know what I'm doing wrong here.
    Suggestions and/or tips, please?

    I can't offer any specific help except to say that you may want to post your question in the installing iTunes forum. Here's the link.

THe installation stops when almost completed and it is stuck at "Registering Modules". At first I though to redownload itunes. THis has not helped.

THis has erased my old itunes and left me stuck without a working application. What can I do????

    Yes I do. I even tried stopping that for the installation and it won't work. I'm really frustrated.

  • Registering Modules Freeze on Installation??

    My computer always freezes at the Registering Modules portion of the installation of iTunes 7.2. After the incomplete installation I can open iTunes by opening a music file (I do get a box warns me that iTunes was not installed properly). It even seems to work fine, it plays music and tv shows and the iTunes store works too. The problem I am having with the incomplete installation is that I can't rip music from my CD's. Is there anyone out there who knows what I can do to finally get iTunes to install completely??
    Thanks!

  • ITunes 7 Installation Stalls when "Registering Modules"

    This issue has been brought to attention in at least three other threads.

    One board member has already suggested installing Itunes 7 on another computer and importing the installed files directly onto the 'problematic system.'
    Unfortunantly, this doesn't work fo all. Therefore I am hoping that this thread becomes a 'ground central' for this problem. Has anyone tried anything else that works? Does anyone at Apple have any idea as to why the installation stalls at this point?
    Thanks,

  • Crystal Report 2008 Installation Failed - Registering modules

    HI Folks
    I'm trying to install Crystal Report 2008 on XP Pro SP2. The installation stop on Registering Modules, even if I click Cancel,
    it does not do anything it just hang there. I have to kill the process in Task Manager. If I restarted the installation,
    it says that I have already an installtion process running. So I have to reboot and then restart the installation,
    now it says that it will continue a previous uncompleted installation. But it hangs again at Registering Modules.
    It does not even stop at the same file. I have done this process several time with always the same result.
    Each time it stops on a different file but always during the Registering Modules process.

    As well as that make sure you are a local PC administrator or belong to that group. Also check Microsoft's site to make sure you have the latest Microsoft Installer. I believe there is a test tool to check your PC.
    Do you know what version of CR 2008 you have? There should be a ProductId.txt file to confirm the version. SP 3 should fully support DEP so if you don't have it download it from this [link|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009989492010E/cr2008_sp3_fullbuild.zip].
    Then it should get past Microsoft's security. If it's your Anti-V as Stratos suggests then only option is to disconnect from the network and disable it, install and the reconnect.
    The other common registration issue is due to missing dependencies or possibly updated dependencies that CR found but can't use. Some of our dependencies are specific versions.
    Thank you

  • Every 7.* update locks up while "Registering modules"

    Each and every update since the first 7.* version the installer locks up while "Registering modules". I can remove the installation and run the older 6.* version without any problems. What's up with that?
    BTW, I'm not a computer idiot, I have 3 degrees and 25 years experience using them and have been unable to correctly diagnose the problem using tracking software and trying to figure out what specific command is causing the lock up.

    that's usually caused by SpyCatcher. see:
    iTunes 7 or later for Windows Installation stops responding while "registering modules"
    (it's best to launch itunes at least once prior to reinstalling SpyCatcher.)
