Silent install of iTunes+Quicktime

I'm trying to do a silent install of itunes using the following command...
iTunesSetup.exe /s /v/qn
and it is silent (no dialog) until it displays the "Welcome to the iTunes 6 Installer" window. After clicking Next, it goes back to installing silently.
How on earth do I stop that initial screen from displaying? I want to be able to deploy itunes automatically with the user not seeing anything.
I can decompress the iTunesSetup.exe with WinRAR and install just QuickTime silently from the msi but the iTunes MSI still displays this annoying welcome screen. I'd rather do it natively than have to repackage with WinINSTALL LE.

No.
I setup new machines at work on a regular basis for deployment to staff and to make things easier, I am in the process of setting up some automated installs of software at the end of the unattended windows installation. Everything else works fine except iTunes.

Bonjour help + clean uninstall and re-install of iTunes, Quicktime, and related components

I am using Win7 x64.
To make a long story short, I unistalled Bonjour. When the next update for iTunes came out (Ver. 10.4.1), I was unable to update due to the error message: "Service Bonjour (Bonjour Services) failed to start. Please verify you have sufficient administrative permission and try again" or something along those lines. After trying several things to no avail, I finally did a clean uninstall of iTunes, Quicktime, and all related components as per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923. When I then tried to reinstall iTunes and Quicktime, I got the same error message. I know people have had problems with Bonjour before, but I couldn't find any info on why I am getting this after a clean uninstall or what to do about it, so any ideas would be very much appreciated.
Thank you.

Silent install of iTunes 10 for Windows

I am trying to deploy iTunes 10 to about 100 windows machines. Is there a command I can use to make the install silent. I have seen past references to /q /n and /quiet /passive but those do not seem to work. I have also seen references at appdeploy.com about extracting the msi and using MDT2010 but that is getting over my head. I am not picky about what gets installed, I'll take all the default settings to make life easier.
Please help

Windows will not restart after install of itunes & quicktime, what to do?

I installed itunes and quicktime from the disc provided. After install the installer asked to restart the computer and I clicked yes. It has not booted since. Windows 2000 Pro locks up about 75% through process. I did hear the speakers activate then nothing. I have attempted a hard boot and restart in safe mode without success. My emergency disk did not work. Where should I go next?

Nothing works for install of itunes & quicktime

Everything worked fine until I attempted to upgrade to Itunes 7.0. Itunes will not load and it produces "Quicktime gives a fail to initialize error 2093"
I've tried the various troubleshooting suggestions I've been able to find on this forum.
1. throughly scanned my computer using AWG, TrojanHunter and Eiwdo.
2. done each of the steps of http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
3. error checked my hard drive
4. reinstalled windows installer.
5. when i attempted to change the QuickTime settings via the Control Panel I receive a Buffer Overrun Detected! Program C:\windows\system32\rundl32.exe
6. Also at that the upgrade knocked the sound out of my Windows Media player.
7. I cannot get a response to clicking on the Speaker Settings Advanced Options button in the Sounds and Audio Devices in the Control Panel
Compaq Presario 6000 Windows XP

Sounds like (no pun intended) you might have to go to HP's website and get the latest audio drivers for your model in order to fix your sound problems before trying to fix anything else.
I'm not sure how up-to-date Compaq drivers would be though since it's been several years now since the merger. If the problem is that QT needs more up-to-date drivers and you can't get that, at the very least you might be able to repair your sound.

Silent install of itunes 10.6.1.7 suite on x86 or x64 issues

I have been following user blog sites that mention using the IS_ASU property set to 1 (instead of the default 0) so it will disable the Accept License Screen on first launch. However when I create the MST file for this it still prompts for the eula. I know the other options such as REGSRCH_DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS, remove about itunes icon are working, so the MST itself is working, just not the auto except eula. The user community doesnt like popups/questions/options/etc so having the eula popup is considered total failure.
Thanks!

Appears IS_ASU is depreciated? An adminstudio tuner included iTunesPrefs.xml dropped in CommonAppDataFolder = %AppData%\Apple Computer\iTunes\ works AOK.

ITunes/Quicktime killes my Windows 2000 SP4

After installing recent iTunes/Quicktime for Windows I am not able to boot my PC with Windows 2000 SP4. I can't reboot in save mode neighter - nothing goes.
Never saw a software which crashes your OS - I can't believe that!
What to do now? Don't tell me to re-install Windows 2000.
Thanks.

I had the exact problem on two of my Dell Dimension running Win 2000. I had to painfully re-install everything. Did you fix yours?

Silent install of Quicktime disable update

I need to push silent install of Quicktime to Windows Domain workstations (XP and 7). This install needs to be without user intervention and at the same time disable the auto update option. Are there command line switches that will allowt this to happen?

I don't have specific info to hand for QuickTime, I'm afraid ... just iTunes:

It might be worth checking in at ITNinja (formerly AppDeploy) for more info on a QT 7.7.2 deploy:

How do I install iTunes+QuickTime on Vista

When I try to install the latest version of iTunes+Quicktime, everything works until the very end when QuickTime is installing, the I get an error box saying "This Installer Cannot Upgrade QuickTime 7 For Windows Public Preview, Please Uninstall First". I uninstalled existing QuickTime, but the dialog box pops up every time. I don't see any references to QuickTime in Program Files or Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel. I assume there is a reference somewhere in the Registry.
Any ideas?

A bit of repetition, mainly for the benefit of anyone else with the same issue. In your case the "for older video cards" version might be worth a try.
When cleaning folders you need to check both the Program Files and Program Files (x86) folders, which you may well have done but didn't mention in the detail above.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if Apple Mobile Device Support won't install normally.
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.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update, I can no longer access the itunes store and my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this?

After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update I can no longer acces the itunes store nad my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled windows updates. I have checked the firewall settings. what else?

The problem is with version 10.4.1. I had to reload 10.3 to get it to work. The recommendation from a previous poster worked for me. Here was their list of steps:
Go to Control Panel>Programs>Uninstall
2. Uninstall the following Apple programs in the following order:
     a. iTunes
     b. QuickTime
     c. Apple Software Update
     d. Apple Mobile Devices Support
     e. Bonjour
     f. Apple Appllcation Support
3. Reboot PC
4. Find, Download and Install iTunes 10.3 (you can find it at FileHippo.com)
If you start iTunes now you will get an error message saying that the current iTunes library was created by a newer version of iTunes. To correct this:
5. Go to your Music>iTunes folder and delete the "iTunes Library.itl" database file
6. Within this iTunes folder find and open the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder and locate the most recently dated "iTunes Library (date).itl" database file.
7. Copy and Paste this file back into the iTunes folder
8. Rename this "iTunes Library (date).itl" file by removing the date. It should say "iTunes Library.itl"
9. Reboot PC

ITunes / Quicktime won't install - error message during in installation

My computer, a Dell running with Windows Vista, has not been able to have iTunes & Quicktime installed on it in months. I've attempted to install it a countless number of times & tried a variety of things with my computer to install it but it just doesn't work - I get the same error message everytime. I can't even remember what happened to make it start acting so ridiculous.
It always starts out looking good and everything seems to be working pretty well, the green bar filling up pretty quickly, but then the 'Status' gets to about 'Publishing product information' and the error message pops up and I can't install it. It goes along the lines of "A error occurred during the installation of assembly: ..." then it goes on to say 'Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x8007054F'. Here's a screenshot of the error message with the long whatever on it:
http://i46.tinypic.com/qoesm1.png
I believe I get the same message even when I attempt to download the two software separately (iTunes & Quicktime).
Can any one tell me what needs to be done? I have no idea what to try anymore. All help will be much appreciated. Thank you .
P.S.: If it helps, I can't really reinstall Internet Explorer (removed it when I downloaded Firefox).

Thanks!
(3) And I do not believe I have Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 installed on this computer, as I just tried to install it and I received this error message: http://i45.tinypic.com/a3m7bc.png
Okay ... that rules out one possible treatment. Sometimes people with the redistributable installed can get past this by applying a security update for it ... but it looks like the same sorts of problems are preventing it from installing.
(2) And last time I checked my History I had several failures I believe, however now I only see one failed update, that being Update for Windows (KB944036). The error code listed 8000FFFF. Apparently it's an update for Internet Explorer 8.
The other primary strategy we (I?) have for dealing with these is to attempt to treat any underlying issues on the PC that prevent Windows Updates from installing. Although I have a sneaking suspicion that your 8000FFFF is related to your IE being uninstalled, I think we'd probably better try following up on the following document:
[Error when you download updates using Windows Update or Microsoft Update: 8000FFFF|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946414]
After applying those measures, do your Windows update and/or iTunes installation failures clear up?

I cannot install either iTunes 10.5 or QuickTime 7.7 after having removed the previous installation of both softwares from my Win 7 64 bits.

Hi folks. I hope someone can help me out.
I had iTunes 10.4 and QuickTime Player 7.7 running pretty well on my notebook (a Dell Vostro 3550 with Win 7 Pro 64-bits) and followed many of the pieces of advice on how to upgrade to iTunes 10.5, including uninstalling all Apple software from my computer and trying to install them again from the very beginning.
First, I tried to uninstall/remove all Apple Softwares as suggested on the post http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923. But I was not able to remove the Apple softwares through ContolPanel -> Software -> Uninstall/Repair/Remove. The softwares removal stops due to "lack" of Admin access permission to certain keys in Windows registry: xxx/Unistaller/Media, etc. I got this message trying to remove iTunes, QuickTime, AppleSoftwareUpdate, AppleMobileDeviceSupport. I can assure you that I do have Admin privileges on my notebook and I also shut down any protection tool (Win Firewall, Norton 350, etc.) that might be running during the softwares removal. None of the solutions seemed to work, but I could recover my previous installation of iTunes 10.4 and QuickTime 7.7 and got them running just fine.
Then I tried to uninstall iTunes and QuickTime using the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility and the Fix It Utility (http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall) as also suggested on one of the many posts I have read in Apple Communities. The softwares were all removed, however, even by getting the new installation packages of iTunes 10.5 and QuickTime 7.7 from Apple's web sute, I can't install any of them. I tried to do it with previous versions too, but nothing seems to work. And now, I can't even recover my previous installations of iTunes and QuickTime. I simply cannot have iTunes installed on my notebook.
It seems the only way to sort it out is reinstalling Win 7 and all other applications I have from the very beginning, which is a nightmare and will take days.
Any suggestions? I couldn't have any info from Apple Tech Support untill now.

what if they are turned off? I cannot install iTunes or QuickTime Pro 7 on my WIN7/64 Lenovo W520. ran all the repair cycles uninstalls, reinstalls about 10X each, no luck

I cannot update iTunes because when I run the Apple Software Updater, it says "'iTunes QuickTime' has an invalid signature. It will not be installed." If I try downloading only it says "'iTunes cannot update. Invalid signature.

I cannot update iTunes because when I run the Apple Software Updater, it says "'iTunes + QuickTime' has an invalid signature. It will not be installed." If I try downloading only it says "'iTunes cannot update. Invalid signature. Can someone help?

This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes for Windows forums.
Regards.
