Reinstall itunes after failed update

Installed latest iTunes update. Got same error message as everyone else. Uninstalled iTunes. Now cannot successfully reinstall iTunes. Says I don't have the administrative rights. I am an/the administrator. Restarted computer. Tried 4 times. Just want to backup my devices and get things working again. Can anyone help?

Entry point errors can often be fixed by deleting the offending dll, then repairing the component it is part of.
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 the 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.
If the advice above doesn't resolve things you could try this alternate version:
iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
which is a 64-bit installer for the 32-bit version of the core application, similar to previous 64-bit releases.
Or roll back to the previous build:
iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)

  • Cannot access iTunes after failed update.

    The last time I accessed iTunes I was notified that an update was available (forget the number or version). I hit "install 1 item" but the download failed for some reason or other. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. Today, I tried to just get into iTunes to get to my music and got an error mesage:
    System Error  MSVCR80.dll  Missing
    iTunes not installed correctly
    Error 7
    Windows Error 126
    Reinstall iTunes
    I tried to restore to pervious versions, didn't work. I tried to download iTunes, didn't work.
    I have a shitload of stuff that I have purchased from Apple including music, tv shows, entire seasons that I am still watching and receiving. Now I don't have iTunes. Can anybody help me...please?

    Give this a shot:http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    Make sure you follow the instructions to remove all itunes related components and files.
    Let us know how it goes.

  • HT1925 After failed update of itunes yesterday, now will not run with error message "MSVCR80.dll can't be found, APSDaemon.exe not running".  Windows 7.

    After failed update of itunes yesterday, now will not run with error message "MSVCR80.dll not found" APSDaemon.exe will not run.  itunes will not now run.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • I had to reinstall iTunes cause during update it was shut off by mistake, now it won't come up and says,"The file "iTunes Library .itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes", what do I do?

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

    You might find this article helpful: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    It has the error range of 3000's which states
    Errors 3000-3999 (3002, 3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the gs.apple.com server on ports 80 or 443. This may be because out-of-date or incorrectly configured security or firewall software is interfering, an old version of iTunes is installed, an entry in your hosts file redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see error 1004 above), or because of your Internet proxy settings. If you are using a proxy, try without using one or with a known-good network. If that does not resolve the issue, follow iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues. Error 3014 may indicate that you need to free up more disk space on the computer before trying to restore again. Error 3194 most likely indicates you do not have the latest version of iTunes installed Update to the latest version of iTunes.

  • I-tunes does not recognise ipad to restore after failed update to ios 5

    i-tunes does not recognise ipad to restore after failed update to ios 5. Connected i-pad to update to new ios 5. Back-upp went fine but update failed and now i-tunes does not recognise the devise and i-pad will not work so I have no known way to restore.

    Copied from that article.....
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
    Are you releasing the home button when you see the connect to iTunes screen? Does iTunes start on its own? If it doesn't - start iTunes yourself.
    Also copied from the article.....
    5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:

    No. That would only be required if there is an interruption  during the update, which would then mean it needs to be restored.

  • What is the proper way to reinstall iTunes after error 42404 without losing all my music?

    What is the proper way to reinstall iTunes after error 42404 without losing all my music?

    Here's what I do when I have iTunes problems and it works 9 out of 10 times.  I have Ccleaner; It's a wonderful tool to have.  If you don't have it, google it and install it, just the free version.  You'll see the list of all of your installed programs in there to unstall (among of a host of other things you could do with that program) but anyway, right click on Apple Software first to repair, when done then right click on Apple Application Support to repair, then when done with that, right click on iTunes to repair that and all should be well after that.  No uninstall should be necessary at all when you do all that.
