TS3212 Unable to instal Itunes in Windows 7 for want of a DLL file / installer error

Can anyone help me in installing the latest itunes.  I have downloaded the setup file.  When I try to instal, installation fails forwant of a DLL file / error in installer package.  What should I do to successfully instal.
I have been using Itunes for so many years.  But recently I formatted my laptop and installed the new OS, Windows 7.  Previously I was using Windows XP, I did not have problem.
Is there any solution by enabling or disabling any of the service features under administrative tools in the control panel ?

Although you're getting a different error message, try the procedure from the following user tip with that one:
"The administrator has set policies to prevent this installation" error messages when installing iTunes for Windows on Windows Vista and Windows 7 systems

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)

  • Unable to install ituns on windows 7 64 missing .dll file

    Unable to install ituns on windows 7 64. Installer states missing .dll file.

    Here is a solution that worked for a user who also had a problem with iTunes Software Support. This thread was for a win32 version, but Maybe this is the problem for both of you?:
    IT appears that AppleApplicationSupport.msi, is not opening and installing properly.
    Download and SAVE iTunesSetup.exe, where you can find it.
    Then:
    1. Download and install WinRAR.
    2. Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe icon and choose "Open with WinRAR".
    3. Once the EXE is opened in WinRAR, double-click AppleApplicationSupport.msi and when the installer window is open choose "Repair".
    4. Done! You can now run iTunes normally.

  • Unable to install Itunes in Windows XP

    I am unable to Install Itunes oin Windows xp professional SP2, it gives below error: Let me know how to get it installed

    OK, there is still not much to go there.
    I assume you are using 32 bit XP Pro, iTunes will not install on 64 bit XP but you should get a different error.
    Lets try installing the components of iTunes separately.
    Download the iTunes installer and save it in your downloads folder.
    The files will be either itunessetup.exe or itunes64setup.exe for a 64 bit system.
    Open notepad and copy the following 3 lines into it.
    md temp
    itunes64setup /extract temp
    pause
    Remove 64 for 32 bit itunes.
    Save the file as extract.bat into the same folder that contains the itunes installer.
    Open the downloads folder and you should find the extract file that you saved. Double click on it and a black window will open telling you what it is doing. When its finished, press any key to continue.
    You should find that a folder called temp has been created containing all the itunes msi files.
    Install by double clicking on them  in this order:
    Apple Application Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Apple Software Update
    iTunes
    Make a note of any error messages and which component it relates to.
    Also use the Windows Event viewer to see if there are error messages at the time you attempted the installs.
    The following article gives information about using the Event Viewer:

  • Unable to install Itunes on Windows 8

    Unable to install Itunes on Windows 8.
    It states Errors occured during installation. Your system has not been modified, and does not fully down load.
    I have tried :-
    Uninstall Itunes and then reinstall
    Uninstalled Itunes then connect Iphone to computer and tried to source relevant Itunes package.
    ininstalled Itunes then tried to install a later version
    Even tried an Itunes 64 bit installer then tried to download Itunes.
    All the above have been unsucessful. I have a 64 bit operationg system, x64 based processer laptop computer.
    I have spoken to the staff at apple store who were all really nice but could not offer any help unless I had an apple computer.
    Please help as I have two Iphones and an Ipad which are limited without Itunes.

    See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    If you still have problems installing iTunes download and install 7-Zip (free) and a fresh copy of the current installer from https://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ or use these direct links (which will go out of date at some point):
    iTunes 11.1.5 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-02-25)
    iTunes 11.1.5 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-02-25)
    Then unpack the installer into its components using 7-Zip and install them individually in alphabetical order (don't try to install SetupAdmin.exe or iCloud.msi). If any of the components still fail to install you may get more useful error messages as to why not.

  • Can't install itunes on windows 7 it tells me a file is missing

    can't install itunes on windows 7 it tells me a file is missing (there is a problem with the windows installer package. A programme required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact you support personell or packege vendor. what do i do?

    Well I tried to repair apple update and some other apple prgs in uninstall in control panel. Went back to a restore point. BUT I think the key thing is that I took the courage to uninstall iTunes and then downloaded it again from apple's website and low and behold it had worked!!!!
    So forget reinstalling DO a brand new instal as it has worked for me.
    Thanks to b noir as well for their interest!!!

  • I am still unable to install itunes in Windows Vista

    I have tried to run Fix it 4 times now after doing other things suggested in the Apple community and I am still unable to install itunes. Do you have any other ideas?
    I've been uninstalling/reinstalling and using CCcleaner, sfcscannow and nothing seems to correct error msg 2- corrupt files found/unable to fix.  Now what??????
    I am using windows Vista.  I NEED help!

    nothing seems to correct error msg 2
    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Unable to install iTunes, have Windows 7, different error mssg than others have posted.

    I have a new laptop with Windows 7 and IE9.  When I try to install iTunes, I can download it, but it won't install.  This is the error message:  "This installation package could not be opened.  Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the app vendor to verify this is a valid Windows Installer pkg."
    HELP! I'm an administrator on the computer, I have tried all the suggestions Apple lists on the support page, and nothing is working. 

    Neither Apple nor the iTunes installer cares if you have an a/c (I'm assuming that's the lazy way of typing account) when installing iTunes.
    If you want/need help, stop trying to be cute, provide the specific details without the short hand.
    Otherwise... search for the errors that are being displayed.
    Others are more likely to help if you actually put some effort into asking for help.

  • I am unable to install iTunes on Windows 7 (Strange issue)

    The issue:  I previously had iTunes on a windows install, I migrated to a new computer and a new hard drive for the OS.  Now when I try to install iTunes it gets
    half way through the opening bar where its calculating space then it tells me "The folder path 'Misc Stuff' contains an invalid character"
    I've gone through and deleted all previous instances of iTunes, ran an uninstaller that removes regestery entries and left over data.  It all comes up clean as if there are no files or entries that use iTunes or anything referencing it.  
    Yet when i attempt to install its always the above error.  I'm at wits end here. I'm normally pretty handy with a computer and this ones got me frustrated as all get out.

    I've been unable to research a reason its trying to go to a directory that does not exist.  It leaves me with out any way to sinc tunes onto my iPod.

  • Im unable to install itunes on windows 8.1

    When i try installing itunes 11.1.4 from this link iTunes64Setup.exe, this is the message i get "This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it" Please help! i use windows 8.1 (64 bit)

    The link in your first post is invalid.
    At the time of writing the current build of iTunes is 11.2.2(.3). I would recommend you install the current version rather than any older version, unless you are completely unable to get the current version to work, in which case reinstalling the most recent version that worked for you is a viable short term workaround.
    See the Further Information area of Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for download advice and direct links if required.

  • Unable to install iTunes on Windows 7 64 Bit

    When I try to install iTunes 64 bit on my Windows 7 computer using the latest installer from Apple's website, I get the following error:
    *An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.50727.4053",type="win32",publicKeyToken="1fc8b 3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="x86". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x80070002*
    The installation finishes, but when I run iTunes it says:
    *Apple Application Support was not found.*
    *Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again.*
    *Error 2 (Windows error 2)*
    I have tried:
    * Uninstall all Apple-related software, including Bonjour, Quicktime, and Automatic Updater.
    * Clear out temp folder
    * Running the install as administrator
    * Extracting the .msi files and running them separately
    Any ideas?

  • Unable to install itunes on windows 7 64bit pc

    The first error message I get reads:
    An error occurred during the installation of assembly policy. 8.0.Microsoft.VC80.CRT. type="win32-policy".version="8.0.50727.6195".public KeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b" .processorArchitecture="x86'''. Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: Ox80070299
    It will continue after I hit OK but then it rolls back the action and continues.
    Then I get another message that: 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
    I chose ignore since retry gets me the same message and I guess that "abort" will just stop the whole process.
    The install continues and then Congratulations Itunes has successfully installed on your computer. I hit finish to start and then two error messages saying that Apple Application Support was not found and to reinstall itunes.
    HELP!!!

    It is an ongoing issue with installing iTunes 7 on Windows.
    What often solve the problem is running installer as Administrator
    and the opening iTunes as Administrator
    Right click on the installer and "Run As Administrator"
    Also as b noir mentioned - can you post the error message?
    This would help.
