The installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exist
HELP!
I have not been able to update my Itunes to a newer version (since 6.0.5). Every time I try to upgrade to the newer version I get this error message when I try to install:
"The installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package"
This is been incredibly frustrating because now I am limited in what songs and albums I can buy online because they require the newer version. I am getting to the point where i'm ready to start using another service to get my music from now on. I've noticed that others here have the same error message, but they are using Windows Vista. I'm having this problem on Windows XP.
Any help would be very appreciated.
Oh sorry what i meant was that i am trying to install adobe reader, i have tried all version from 8 to 9 and i am getting this error.The solution that i found on different forum was to use windows installer cleanup utility and clean up the previous installation. i dont have any installation in my registry.
Kindly help me in this matter

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer? -

Hi,
Firstly make sure you save it to your hard disk, and then run setup from there.
If it doesn't help, you may also try to unregister Windows Installer, and then reregister Windows Installer and check if it helps. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Press Windows Key + R
2. In the "run" box, type "msiexec /unreg", and then press ENTER.
3. Press Windows Key + R
4. In the "run" box, type "msiexec /regserver", and then press ENTER.
Besides that, You could try to create a new user to download and install the application.

I just purchased an IPod, now I cannot install I Tunes on my vista pc.
No matter how many times I try, it says, the installation package could not be opened, please verify that the package exists and that you hav the right to access it. contact the vendor (apple) to verify that this is a valid windows installer package.
I tried also to open this with administator priveledges, with no changes.
I tried also to re download this 3x and get the same results, on both my computers.Hi,
That did not fix the problem, same error.
But it was sort of fun to do the process!!
Can anyone help me with this?
I now tried installing an old version of i tunes, and vista "does" allow older installs, but i tunes doesn't see the ipod. the ipod sees the computer though because when i unplug it the ipod icon changes. -

This installation package could net be opened verify thatthe package exist and that you can access for contact the application vendor to verify this is a valid windows installer packageIf you are not already doing so, install from an Administrator account.
If you haven't already done so, download the iTunes Installer from:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Then right click on the installer and select "Run as Administrator." (Even though you are using an admin account).
If that doesn't work, try creating a new administrator account and installing from there.
