Uninstall ITune Version 7.6 problems

I was one of the few people on the planet who had not installed Window XP Service Pack 2. Recently, I installed it, hoping to fix a few problems, and was (unknowingly) also able to install iTunes v.7.6. However, Service Pack 2 crippled my computer, creating a molasses-like experience. I successfully uninstalled it with one tiny exception: iTunes v.7.6...grrrr. iTunes will not work or uninstall without Service Pack 2.
I have:
Deleted all iTunes/Quicktimes/Apple related files from my "Programs Files"
Deleted Apple, Inc folders from my computer's registry.
And I am still not unable to install a older version of iTunes. Though it seems not to matter really since I likely will not be able to purchase any music with out v. 7.6.
Any suggestions as to how to get iTunes up and running on my again zippy computer. Or have I sacrificed iTunes for efficient computing?
Thanks!

I cannot uninstall itunes version 10.7.0.21 from my laptop use of that I also cannot install the new update.

I cannot uninstall iTunes version 10.7.0.21 from my laptop (windows 7), therefore I cannot install the new iTunes version....!
Every time I try to do it, a "message" from the windows installer pops up saying "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable", I try to find the installation package "iTunes.msi" but I can never find it either...!
The funny part is, I can still use this version, but I would like the have the update, which can make my computer much faster than now!
Can someone help me out??

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.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Error 7 (Windows error1114) have uninstalled iTunes and am having problems reinstalling latest version

When trying to download latest version of iTunes, it failed to down load and I got an error message which read
Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exc
R6034
An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the applications support team for more information.
iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 1114)
Tried reinstall, repair as have done this before this did not work, so I uninstalled iTunes then downloaded latest version only to have this not work either.
I had my ipod attached at the time as I was charging it anf now find I can't turn it off?
What is going on with this.

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.

Itunes version 8 download problem

k, I have a Windows XP and I have downloaded service pack 2 and 3. I have also downloaded the setup for itunes version 8.0 (or whatever the newest version is) from the apple website. I currently have itunes 7.4.3 and I have just recently purchased an ipod nano (Apple's newest version of it). I need to download itunes version 8.0 so I will be able to use my nano (which is not compatible with my current version). However every time I try and download the version, I get a message that 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 downloaded the service packages from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/) My question is do I need another service package or what program do I need to complete the installation of itunes 8.0?
Also, if anyone could respond before January 10th that would be awesome XD (since that is the last day I can return the nano and get most of my $150 back O_O)

When you get this kind of "package" message the problem is often with Apple Software Update.
Uninstall ASU using the method for removing ASU in this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
It may well fail to uninstall. If it does you need an installer clean up.
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
To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install Cleanup
Run the clean up utility and remove any references you find to Apple Software Update.
Hopefully that will allow your install to go though.
Download the iTunes installer from here:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Save the installer on your desktop an run it from there.

Missing iPid Icon/iTunes Version 7.01 Problems

Ever since downloding iTunes version 7.01 I've been unable to transfer any songs to my iPod Mini. Also the iPod icon is no longer on my PC. I badly need help as I've gone through all the tips and recommendations given by Apple and STILL nothing can be transferred to my iPod
iPod Nano 6GB Windows XP

I was able to fix my problem by going into add and delete programs. Select itunes and there will be an area "click here for support infomation" Check and run repair. Do this for both Itunes and Quick Time, but do Quick time first. After I did that itunes came right up and started to run. Good Luck!!

I cannot update or uninstall iTunes with Windows XP.

I have an older OS (windows XP) and have been trying to update iTunes. I keep getting a message saying that Bonjour is on another network that I do not have access to. It then tells me that iTunes.msi is not available either. Now I am not able to sync my iPod.
I have tried to uninstall iTunes to fix the problem, but I cannot do that either. I get the same message about this missing Bonjour. I would really like to update, or at the very least get rid of this version to get the newer iTunes.
If anyone can help me figure out this problem, I would appreciate it more than I can say.
Thank you in advance (especially if there is some simple solution that I have either not seen or tried )

Also using Windows Installer CleanUp Utility is no longer an available option since Microsoft is saying that it damages files as well as fix them.
Nonetheless, it's the best game in town for this particular kind of trouble. So, just in case, I'll run you through my standard instructions for an itunes.msi variant (just in case).
Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeksare worth checking.)
After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

I get the message 'itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close' when trying to open itunes 11.1.1.11.

Re: Itunes 10.3 for windows I had problems whereas when I searched for a song I kept getting message "Accessing Itunes Store" when I was already in it I uninstalled and reinstalled latest version Still having problems

I had following problem: When I tried to search for a song in the Itunes Store I kept getting message "Accessing Itunes Store" (even though it appeared I was already in the store) Everytime I typed a character in the Search box the Accessing Itunes Store message would pop up
I was told to uninstall Itunes and Quick time programs and reinstall latest versions, which I have done and now have Itunes 10.3
I still got same messages so I tried a few things and when I went to my itunes account profile I got message "Requested Resouce not found"
Don't know where to go from this point. HELP

I have the same issue. I took it the genius bar and called talked to tier 2 phone support. They have standard thing where you uninstall all apple software in a certain order and then reinstall 64bit itunes. That did nothing (tried it 4 times).
I've gotten two clues so far.
One is that at the store if I plug someone else's iphone 4 in then itunes acts the same way. So it is not the phone. Two is tier 2 phone support told me to try syncing it with a fresh user account (an admin one). I did that and itunes was just fine, it did not freeze.
So there appears to be some conflict with the software, music files, whatever that is on my current user account (also an admin account). I ran virus and malware detectors and found nothing. Now I'm going to try putting my music, movies, apps, etc in the new user account and see if the phone will sync then.
I know its not much but thats where I'm at. I hope it helps.

TS4062 i have just updated to ios v7.1 on my iphone 5 model a1429 and i still cant sync any music pics, apps or vids. iv tried uninstalling itunes and all its apps and reinstalling to latest version. my iphone is recognised can view contents but thats al

not sure where the problem lies but have tried uninstalling itunes and its apps reinstalling latest version but it is the same i can view my iphone as soon as its plugged in via usb when i got to edit music to sync it all appears fine but when i click apply it appears to start syncing for 1sec and then stops with no error messages but my phone remains the same also it wouldn't want to backup either.
so iv tried another pc with itunes and can backup fine but however since updating IOS 7.1 and itunes not letting me backup before i now have lost my apps.
they apper in itunes but it wont sync them back on and my old update from jan can not be found so i checked the directory C:\Users\####\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup ---and re added the old backup only to find it wont show it so stuck in same boat Has anyone had this problem and know a solution please help................

also must mention i have never had trouble that i couldn't fix on itunes but all of this has started since i have been using icloud for basic backups hope this helps solve problem

A bit of repetition, mainly for the benefit of anyone else with the same issue. In your case the "for older video cards" version might be worth a try.
When cleaning folders you need to check both the Program Files and Program Files (x86) folders, which you may well have done but didn't mention in the detail above.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if Apple Mobile Device Support won't install normally.

Cannot install iTunes on my Win7Pro PC for several months after a long time w/o problems. Uninstalled iTunes Bonjour with no improvement. Help?

Since October 2011 I cannot update iTunes when I receive an Apple UD notice (Win7Pro PC). I have also lost communication with my iPod Touch. In all cases I have attempted to download the latest version of iTunes. Yeasterday I uninstalled iTunes & Bonjour. I still cannot install iTunes. What can be done to allow iTunes to install?

If you want to do complete reinstall, please follow following steps:
1. Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall

2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:

Can't uninstall old version of iTunes on Windows Vista

I have been trying to install updates for iTunes for a long time now (pretty much since update 7) and have not been able to do so because once the install occurs I'm that there is a resource network unavailable. I'm them prompted to change the file path to something that contains "iTunes.msi". I do that and it doesn't work. When I search my computer for the "iTunes.msi" file it can't find it but during the download process the option is given to me when I browse, but it still doesn't work.
I have tried a manual download of iTunes. I have tried to uninstall iTunes from my Control Panel and get the same response as above.
This issue is only affecting iTunes. Other Apple programs have been able to update.
Help.
Thanks.

Try using Microsoft's Fix it solution at http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall. Use it to uninstall iTunes. It bypasses this not uncommon problem. When the solution finishes, the selected program will be uninstalled. It can take several minutes and I have seen as much as half an hour.
After it uninstalls iTunes you should be able to install the new version.

Problem uninstalling Itunes/Quicktime/Apple products from my computer?

I have never had a problem with Itunes before, but recently, when trying to transfer newly downloaded songs from my Itunes, to my Ipod, the songs wouldn't sync. A message flashed up saying that I needed to re-install Itunes because Mobile Device Support was out of date.
When I tried to re-install Itunes however, my computer didn't allow me to do so. Instead I was presented with a message saying that I was unable to uninstall Itunes because Windows Installer was not properly downloaded on my computer. However, this problem only occurs exclusively in relation to Apple products installed on my computer, as I am able to re-install other programs.
I've tried every online solution offered and nothing works.No matter how hard I try, I can't re-install Itunes. Please help - I NEED MY MUSIC.

Instead I was presented with a message saying that I was unable to uninstall Itunes because Windows Installer was not properly downloaded on my computer.
What's the precise text of that message please, km?
Do you have a 32-bit or 64-bit version of Windows 7?

Hi,
got it fixed! My Son had both files on his Win7 iTunes installation. Never mind he had no issues whith ths iTunes and iPhone Sync. So I checked my other Win XP PC, where I don't have this problem syncing my ipad, and surprise. Both files do NOT show up on this PC. So I renamed the iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe I found under c:\program file\iTunes and synced again my iPhone and it went through without any error. So the problem might be and unremoved iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe or the missing iTunesPhotoProcessor.dll under the iTunes install root folder and this even if I had checked that the folder was completely removed during iTunes unistall.
Please try yourselve and just rename the iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe to iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe_ under c:\program file\iTunes or get a copy of the missing iTunesPhotoProcessor.dll and cp to c:\program file\iTunes.

My computer keeps telling me to uninstall itunes and reinstall the 64 bit version, but that is what I already installed?

First ipod in our house, installed itunes on my computer & trying to sync to the ipod but I keep getting a message that says to uninstall itunes & reinstal the 64 bit version. That is the only version that I even saw to download.
