    Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
    In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
    ... and click "Next".
    When you get through to the final screen:
    ... click the "Copy to Clipboard" button and paste the diagnostics into a reply here. (Use your Ctrl-V keyboard shortcut to paste.)

  • Cant install any version of itunes on windows vista, does anybody know of a fix?

    cant install any version of itunes on windows vista, does anybody know of a fix?

    Since you don't say why it won't install, here is what I have found to work on a Vista machine, 32-bit:
    Download but do not install iTunes file from Apple site
    Stop anti-virus and firewall
    Restart computer
    Login as Admin
    Run iTunes installation
    Turn anti-virus and firewall on
    Restart and login as regular user
    Vista likes to leave a lot of installers running in the background even when they finish and that interfers with the iTunes installer.

  • Why do i keep getting an error message of 2096 when installing any version of itunes

    Why do  I keep getting ann error of 2096 when downloading any version of itunes.  It tells me to delete itunes and reinstall.

    That one is often a compatibility mode problem. Try the following document, only be sure that none of the boxes in the compatibility mode tab are checked (not just the compatibility mode box itself):

  • Unable to install new version of itunes

    I am unable to install the new version of itunes. When I download the new version w/ QuickTime, part of the way through the installation I get an error, the installation was interrupted, please reinstall later, click finish to exit. When I look into my programs, QuickTime has been installed, but no itunes. This problem is new today as a couple days ago I was able to install it, but every time I did, my DVD/CD Drive would disappear. I have had to run several system restores. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Download windows cleanup utility from microsoft website and uninstall itunes + quicktime. Then go to apple.com/quicktime/download and download quicktime with itunes save it on your desktop then run it. It should help

    Hi! I'm trying to install the recent version of itunes. I have had no success. I keep getting an error message that says " Apple Moble device failed to start.

  • Unable to Install New version of iTunes due to Bonjour.

    Okay, I was trying to install the new version of iTunes for my ipod nano w/camera i just bought. While i was downloading, i had to download a newer version of Bonjour. When i tried to it said " Older version of Bonjour cannot be removed." I have heard that some people have had the same problem. How do i fix this?
    P.S. I tried the Windows Installer thing, and it said something like 'Access denied' and i was unable to download it.

    By the way, i know someone already started a thread on something like this. But it has not worked for me.

  • Repeated failure to install ANY version of iTunes...

    I have two iPods, and, for the past three days, I have repeatedly failed at every turn to successfully install iTunes on a notebook with Windows Vista Home Premium. The issue began with failure to successfully download and run the latest update. I went ahead and uninstalled everything having to do with iPods and iTunes. I have repeatedly been presented with the message, "Verify that you have sufficient privileges...". I went into the command prompt and registry and zero'd out the administrator in the HKEY, per some instuctions I found elsewhere, which opened a new "Administrator" account. I have attempted to run any and all d/l versions of iTunes as the administrator. I even went back to an old CD-ROM that came with the Nano and tried to run that. Nothing. I've followed the recommendation made by Moose all over these forums and had no success.
    Versions of iTunes I have attempted install and had no luck:
    7.6.1.9
    7.0.2.16
    6.0.4.2
    When I tried to install the iPod software from the CD-ROM, I got repeated messages that stated, "Couldn't Create Service".
    "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' could not be installed. Verify that you have sufficient..."
    "Service 'Bonjour service' could not be installed. Verify..."
    "iTunes installer was interrupted before the requested operations...could be completed"
    So I guess what I have now are a couple of very expensive paperweights. It is becoming increasingly difficult to not resort to violence! For the first time in six years, I've craved a cigarette!!!
    Anyone?!?

    Can you install it using a different Windows user account?
    Can you successfully install QuickTime standalone?

  • Unable to install latest version of iTunes

    I have been trying for months on end to install the latest version of iTunes. When I run the install package, it runs the entire install just fine, but then it disappears and also deletes a previous version of iTunes that I have which is version 4.6 (the only version that I am able to use). I know how to install software and downloads, but this is the only software where I am not able to download the latest version. I have Windows XP with the service pack 2 installed. Could it be that I need to disable all of the "pop-up blockers" in order to install the latest version of iTunes. I have never been so frustrated in my entire life for something that should be so simple.
    If anyone knows a workaround, it would be greatly appreciated!

    i just responded about this. if your situation is like mine, good luck getting apple support to help you because it is beyond them.
    BUT, try them first. from what i understand this problem is relating to prior installs and permissioning with regard to quicktime. i could be wrong. there are also other possibilities. i called 5 different times and got different answres each time. finally i had to fix it myself and spending hours on the phone and visiting many sites and doing this and that with the windows installer / installshield.
    finally, i modified my registry and i could install. but you should not do this unless you know exactly what you are doing since it can cause your computer to stop working - seriously, don't even think about it. call support. maybe after so many people complain about this they will fix their quicktime install (which i'm told is the problem) or put a web page telling people how to remedy the problem. good luck.

  • HELP, can't install any version of iTunes on new laptop

    Hi, I just got a new Dell XPS 1210, I turned off all of the security Sw and tried to downlaod V7 software from the site, it loaded than said itunes had a problem and had to close, I tried it at least 5 times with no joy, I than moved a file from my old laptop (V6.0.4) and it loaded and said had to shut down due to a problem, i spent 3 hours on the phone with Dell tech support who told me they had no idea, does anyone have any ideas why no version of iTunes will launch on my new system? (XP Pro, with 2GB RAM, 80GB HD)
    Thanks from a newbie

    3rdtoy,
    If iTunes is crashing, why don't you get a crash log and send it to those lazy Apple engineers.
    Typically, you'll need to configure Dr. Watson on your PC in order to generate crash logs. Windows start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return. At the prompt in the command line window that comes up, type in
    drwtsn32 -i
    And hit return.
    This will create crash logs in Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\. There'll usually be a file in here called "drwtsn32.log" If there's already a file there, it most likely has multiple crash logs in it (new crash logs are just appended to the end of the file). So, delete this file. This will make sure you're not sending extra information I don't need. These crash logs are text files, so you can open them in notepad or whatever to see what information you're sending.
    So, get the machine setup to collect crash logs, do the thing that makes iTunes crash. Send it to our buddy Roy. It doesn't hurt to put the URL to this discussion thread because he gets a lot of these messages and is easily confused. Tell him Toonz sent ya.

  • Unable To Install New Version of iTunes (iTunes.msi problem?)

    fyi, i also have an iPhone
    error message:
    the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
    Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package iTunes.msi in the box below
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple\Apple Software Update\
    This is as far as I can go in the installation of iTunes, so I am also unable to get the new iPhone firmware update.

    When you get this network resource message, you usually need to do an installer file clean up.
    Here is a method for removal of iTunes with installer clean up:
    == uninstall with cleanup ==
    Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
    Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
    XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Vista
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
    When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete and file or folder called Quicktime.
    Restart your PC.
    Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
    Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
    restart your PC
    Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
    If it does, install iTunes.

  • Installing any version of iTunes 8

    Whenever I try to install it, it comes up with an error. It says:
    "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."
    I have had this on both 8 and 8.0.1. I don't know why it comes up and I haven't seen anything on the forums, though I haven't had time to look past the second page or so...

    Some people have found that manually removing Apple Software update and then using the Microsoft installer cleanup utility to clean up the Apple software update installer works for this.
    I have given a method for the complete removal of iTunes but as a first go, you might try just doing the removal for Apple Software Update with clean up and then using the downloaded iTunes Installer to install the new iTunes.
    == uninstall with cleanup ==
    Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program.

    *If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.

    Restart your PC.
    Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
    Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
    If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
    restart your PC
    Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
    If it does, install iTunes.

  • Itunes error 7 Unable to install new version of Itunes on Windows 7

    I am stumped. Have tried to install the latest iTunes download on my PC (Windows7), have tried everything to get it to work. Uninstalled all Apple programs, disabled my anti-virus... so frustrating! Have been trying for a few hours and do not know what to do.
    It looks like there is an error with the iTunesHelper

    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)
    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 install ANY version of iTunes

    Alright...
    A while ago, I tried upgrading to iTunes 7.6 unsuccessfully. Every time I tried "iTunes installer" I got "Preparing to install..." and then Headline: iTunes + Quicktime with error message of "The folder path 'My Pictures' contains an invalid character. I press "OK" and I get "iTunes Installer Completed" with "The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured. To retry these operations as a later time, please run the installer again. Click Finish to exit the installer."
    Each subsequent attempt produced same response. I then deleted all existence of iTunes off my computer and tried installing iTunes with my old software that came with my 2005 generation iPod. Same response. I tried getting a 7.5 version off Hippo download or whatever, same response.
    I downloaded Windows Genuine Advantage validation plug-in with no solution.
    I then downloaded Windows Installer Clean-Up and I don't understand what I am supposed to do with it. Does my answer lie with this Clean-up program, or elsewhere?
    Help!
