Unable to run iTunes based VBS files

I'm guessing this is something to do with Vista because it works fine on my laptop, but basically I'm trying to run a VBS script which clears out duplicates from iTunes. The VBS file runs fine on my laptop which is running XP, but doesn't run on my desktop running Vista x64 Ultimate (only doing so because it exceeds the max spec for XP Pro).
When I try and run the script I get the following:
C:\Users\Enverex\Desktop>cscript RemoveDup_iTunesTracks.vbs
Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.7
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Users\Enverex\Desktop\RemoveDup_iTunesTracks.vbs(32, 1) Microsoft VBScript
runtime error: ActiveX component can't create object: 'iTunes.Application'
(this forums lack of a "code" paste option is wrecking the output a little but you should get the idea).
I've tried reinstalling iTunes and I've tried installing the x86 version of iTunes, no change. It does this for any iTunes VBS script, not just this one (and as I said they work fine on my laptop). Tried using iTunes 7 instead which also had no effect. The "register the vbs dll file" also has no effect (also that's only a fix for the issue of iTunes not installing in the first place). User is admin and can do anything else on the machine, it's just VBS files for iTunes that don't work.
So any ideas? I really need to be able to sort this out because I can't sync my iPod till It's done :/

Tried the registering thing ages ago, it claims to have registered fine but no change.
I tried the scripts on that site but only the VBS ones (as it's VBS I'm having an issue with). I just tried his EXE version, ran the program and it gave me a list of all his scripts, I tried 2 different ones, they opened a command prompt window (with nothing written in them) and then disappeared after about 2 seconds silently.
I assume I have VBS installed, I thought it was a prerequisite to install iTunes but I'm not sure what else to try, as you mentioned it only seems to be for 2k, XP and 2k3.

Hi, i'm unable to run itunes on my windows vista service pack 2. I was able to use it a month ago but suddenly i cant start it up at all after reinstalling it several times.

I am unable to run iTunes because I am missing MSVCR8080.dll.

After trying to install the latest version of iTunes, I am unable to open it. I get the error message that I'm missing "MSVCR8080.dll", and that I should reinstall. However, I can't find the file that I downloaded it from, and when I try to download it again, I can't/don't see the file. (There's no dialogue about where the file should download to, for example.) Please help!!!

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Unable to run iTunes on Windows 7

I am running Windows 7 on a ThinkPad x200. I have a iPhone 3Gs. I have tried to install the latest iTunes from the Apple site, both the 32 and 64 bit versions. Both fail to start with an error of "The ITunes application could not be opened. An unknown error occurred (-50)." Any insights would be appreciated.

I have a similar problem. Since I could not get iTunes to run anymore, I checked if QuickTime wuold run...since iTunes relies on it. QuickTime will not start. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate 64.
If I start QuickTime, it terminates without any message or any window opening on the screen.
When I check the systems' application error log I see this error...until it is fixed, QuickTime, iTunes, Paint Shop, and of course my iPhone all are plagued with issues!
I tried the complete deinstall, delete files, etc., reinstall resolution. I tried a different account, also errored. I tried selective startup to only start the apple applications, also errored.

Unable to run iTunes

Had problems since downloading latest version of iTunes. Resulting in iPod Classic not being recognised. Attempted to reinstall earlier version and have since attempted to reload latest version. Result is that my Classic has all of my music every time I attempt to open iTunes I get the following message - The file "iTunes Library.it" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes.
Stalemate I can't edit/transfer any of music - can anyone help?

If you're comfortable with being at version 8.x, under these circumstances I'd try the instructions from the following document (skipping the "reinstall iTunes" step):
[No content shows up in iTunes after updating|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1967]
(The "Previous libraries" file created on the day you tried the update to a version 9.x should be in a format readable by your current 8.x version.)

Unable to run itune

Good day, I've just recently bought an ipod with video, i understand that you would need to install itune in order to load music or video onto the ipod, so i followed the procedure and downloaded the latest version of itune, it installed successfully, however when i am trying to open and run the program this message appears "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." and not allowing me to open the program. I would be most grateful if anyone could give me some advice or assistant on this matter, thanks!!

when i am trying to open and run the program this message appears "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
first we'll check to see if this is associated with a problem with your QuickTime. (itunes needs a properly functioning QuickTime in order to work correctly.)
try launching your QuickTime. does it:
(a) launch perfectly fine?
(b) fail to launch with an error message? (if so, what does it say?)
(c) exhibit other peculiar behavior? (if so, could you describe it for us?)

Unable to run iTunes store on 64 bit Windows 7, only loads half way.

I need help.
Using a Windoze 7 64 bit, I have downloaded iTunes 10.5.
But when I run it I get to half way on the top bar for the store and no further.
Therefore I cannot access the store.
Norton 360 say it is an iTunes problem and Apple say it is a Norton problem.
Any advice tips or solutions? Preferably the latter.
thanks
John

With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

Are you trying to migrate your application from an older release to a newer one ?
Always provide details of which version of Jdeveloper you are using and what technologies your application uses besides what you were trying to do at a high level.
Since you donot provide much info at this point , all I could suggest would be to see if one of these results help -

Apple application support is required to run itunes helper

unable to run itunes 64bit version, getting error message apple application support is required to run itunes helper
reinstalled 2 times but same problem

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/
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 upgrade itunes or Quick Time

I recently transferred all my data and programs to a new hard drive. Since then I have been unable to run itunes. The message "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed". When I try to delete itunes so I can reinstall it I get the following two messages:
"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable
The installation source for this product is not available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it".
Any ideas.

"+unable to delete older version of quick time" "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" "enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'Quick Time.msi'".
With those symptoms, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from Microsoft:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install CleanUp"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another QuickTime install. Does it go through properly this time?
THIS WORKED FOR MY SYSTEM. I have now reloaded both iTunes and Quick Time. THANKS
