Tryin to install iTunes 10.5.1 but get error message

When trying to install iTunes 10.5.1 on my laptop I keep getting this message "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor." Windows said to contact Apple. The IT rep from Apple just gave me a bunch of links that haven't helped. I followed one of the troubleshooting links and now I can't even reload the older version of iTunes. Can anyone guide me through what is required?

Did you ever find an answer to this problem as I have encountered it now and it is very frustrating?
Regards,
Lyndon

    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 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.
    The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if AAS won't install normally.

  • TS1424 Unable to install Itunes, it downloads fine, but then error message pops up. Any help?

    Anyone who can help?  I had itunes on my computer since 2009 with no problmes, there was an update yesterday am, tried to update, wouldn't allow it to happen, I logged off, back on, tried a couple of times with no luck.  I then uninstalled so i could reinstall,  now it downloads but will not allow the install, an error message keep popping up.  Tried to update other things too, nothing seems to be working...... Called Apple for phone help but they wanted me to pay 20 bucks, sorry no..  thanks anyone who can help.

    That's a bit odd. Normally it's an error you get if iTunes has been installed ... you just can't open the Store.
    Are you getting that after launching iTunes and trying to go to the Store? If so, have you checked the date and time on the PC as per the following document?
    iTunes: About the "A secure network connection could not be established" alert

  • Trying to update frpm itunes 10 to itunes11, but get error message after installation

    I am trying to update my itunes to be compatible with my replaced iphone 4s (apllecare replacement) that is not compatible with my current iTunes 10.6.  I have tried several times to upload th enew version of iTunes to no avial getting an error message after a "successful installation" and the itunes reverts to 10.6.  Since my imac was an older unit I had to update to OSX 10.6.8 (sucessfully) and increase my RAM.  I am 120bucks in the hole plus the 49 dolar surcharge for the iphone replacement and i am still no closer to restoring my phone.  Help please

    First backup your music and content.
    Then delete iTunes 10.6 Drag the application from Finder > Applications to Trash. Empty Trash
    Try and install 10.7 first iPhone 4s will work with this. You can find the download here
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1576
    Install it. Does itunes 10.7 now appear? Is your content all there? Connect up your iPhone and start syncing.
    From there if you want to you can upgrade to iTunes 11 but it is only necassary if you have an iPhone 5

    so I tried what you said however it gives me a message that says "this is the startup volume, it can not be erased" any recommendations?
    Use the disk utilities from the 10.6 installer disk.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8494.html
    Note that this will completely erase the disk.
    You need to boot from the DVD, not the internal drive

  • When I try to instal latest version of iTunes onto my computer I get error messages, and then the only way for me to access iTunes is to do a System Restore to and earlier restore point

    When I try to install the latest version of iTunes, during the installation I get error messages saying that a program is trying to change registry and the installation is stopped.
    After this happens the only way that I can open iTunes is to do a 'system restore' to an earlier time.
    Has anyone else experienced this and can you help?

    Could you please post the exact text of the error message or provide a screenshot?
    There is advice on issues with the update at  Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates. One of the entries in the further information section refers to a possible registry permissions problem which might be what you are seeing.

    Hey santhosh.pv,
    We have a few articles that can help troubleshoot the alert message in iTunes you see when you are trying to restore your iPhone 4. You can resolve many restore issues using the troubleshooting steps documented here:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275
    The next article is the companion of the more general article above. Follow the above article first. If, after following that article, the issue persists, continue with this article:

  • HT5731 Have 55GB available, but get error message when trying to download movie to add storage

    Have 55GB available, but get error message when trying to download movie to add storage

    Go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage. Let all of the apps load in the window. You can see how much storage you have used and how much you have left. You will need about twice the size of the download of free storage in order to be able to download the movie. Also, the iOS will not let you use every bit of available storage on the device.
    You can delete content in there if needed, but if you sync with iTunes it's a good idea to transfer purchased into iTunes and backup your iPad before you delete content. If you use iCloud only, backup with iCloud before you delete any content.

A: While installing OD XE 11 g, I get error message just before finish

Hello, and welcome to the OTN forums!
i was told that this prg will install in my 64 bit OS (Windows 7).Who told you that, and why don't you ask him/her why it didn't work? (just kidding...)
In fact, XE 11.2 is currently not supported on 64 bit Windows machines. See the [url http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm#BABHICJH]System Requirements documented in the Installation Guide for XE 11.2.
The error you receive has been reported often when people tried to install on 64 bit anyway. There are workarounds for that issue, e. g. described in this thread: {thread:id=2289186}
