Upgrading to 7 - Can't uninstall 6 **PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE somebody help!**

I keep trying to install iTunes 7 (have a 1G Nano), but am getting error messages. When I try to install, it gives me a box that says:
"This installation cannot directly upgrade the version of iPod software found on this computer. Please uninstall the iPod software and try again." [OK]
So, I've totally uninstalled iTunes and QuickTime and tried to reinstall, and keep getting the same message. Help!
I've searched/found anything to do with Apple/iTunes/iPod/QT,and deleted them. Deleted the Win32 Temp file too.
I've used regedit, deleted everything iTunes, Apple and Quicktime. Used MCISUU to uninstall installers.
Tried everything on the Apple support page that was suggested.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE somebody help!

I have the same problem - it seems like the old version is stuck on my computer even though I can't see it and when I try to download iTunes again it says to remove the old version first. Is there any help for this? Should I just try to download iTunes on another computer and use that instead? I feel like there is no hope for this!

    Asuming that you are talking about Adopbe Reader, you can try using this tool to remove all traces of all previous version(s) of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you may download the offline Reader installer for the version you wish from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • Upgraded to CS5, can we uninstall CS4?

    Hello, just installed CS5 upgrade and assumed it would replace CS4 on our system.  It appears to have installed as a completely new program and left the original CS4 installation in place.
    Q. Can we uninstall the CS4 version to reclaim some HDD space?  CS5 seems to be working fine?
    The screen shot belows shows the programs listed on the 'start' menu.
    edit: We received the upgrade disk from Adobe as we had purchased CS4 after CS5 was announced for release.  Both program disks have different serial numbers.

    Update for others who may read this....
    There is one "ill-effect" that we have since discovered which relates to LR3.
    We installed LR3 after CS5 and later removed the previous installation of CS4.  This action removes a key in the registry which makes the "Edit in Photoshop" option greyed out on the menu bar.
    The solution was eventually found here:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/401/kb401629.html
    We chose to have a go at the registry edit, but apparently re-installing CS5 will replace the key also, (this option may be tedious for those who have installed lots of plug-ins?).

    Hi Katrina - I hear what you are saying about the problems. I've been using a BB Pearl here in Canada since January and I had the same problems with PocketMac from the start. iCal dates getting strangely duplicated after syncing and contacts in AddressBook groups getting listed twice on the BB. The only solution I used was to have the Mac always override the BB when syncing. NOt perfect but for me it was the simplest way to ensure the consistency of the data and my own sanity.
    If anyone has a better solution that actually allows a clean sync I'd love to hear it.

    You need to update the software. This is a very old version that will not work with the current OS. Did you purchase the software from the App Store? If do sign in with the Apple ID used to buy it. Go to the Purchases page and find the software.

  • Problems with my Ipod Nano 4g, Please somebody help me :-(

    I decided to buy my first ipod yesterday and I put all my songs on it and so on... But many songs don't work, I want to play them and the sign changes to that play sign but the song stands still. I can play forward in the song but it's still not playing. And after a few seconds it skips the song and plays the next one.
    What can I do? I saw many people with this problem on the internet, but no resolutions... I tried everything I was told to try:
    - The songs work fine on itunes.
    - I did reset my ipod a few times.
    - I tried to delete the songs from itunes and put them in again, didn't work either...
    What else can I do?
    Please help me

    I have the exact same problem. I returned my nano to apple about 2 weeks ago and they weren't able to duplicate it. I got the same nano back in the mail today, loaded up the songs that refused to play, and nothing was fixed.
    This is my 6th apple product and 4th that I currently use and sync with my library. The songs I play on my other apple products (4g classic, iphone 3g, 2g nano) work perfectly. When I put them on my 4g they don't. If I convert the file, and then turn it back to .mp3 format it works...but with a library of nearly 700 gigs of music it seems like a hassle I or other apple customers shouldn't have to deal with.
    I just got off the phone with a customer service rep, and he said the problem isn't with the nano, it's with the file. We got into a pretty good argument back and forth, but at the end of the day when file x works on every other product but this specific one, I'd say the problem lies with this one.
    I keep crossing my fingers for a firmware update that will fix this, but as it stands I'm stuck deciding on whether or not I just want to give up on the 4g or convert my library to another format and then re-convert it back.

    You can also get same information using getLicenseInfo Admin command.

  • ITunes upgrade installation cancelled - Can't uninstall or complete install

    Hi All
    I have tried upgrading to iTunes 9.0.3 today and it took forever to install. During the installation process I stopped the install which also took a long time to stop. I CtrlAltDeleted and stopped this task. The problem is, I can no longer access iTunes via the desktop shortcut. An error message says "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed". I have tried downloading iTunes v 9.0.3 again from the Apple website and tried installing over the top but I then get the following message "Another Installation is in Progress. You must complete the installation before continuing this one". I have also tried uninstalling all Apple products from my computer but I get the same message that I must complete the install before continuing with the install.
    I have also downloaded Windows Installer Clean Up Installation Wizard to try I clean up my installs but I then get the following message when I try and install this "Error 1500. Another installation is in progress. You must complete this installation before continuing this one.
    All I want to do, is either remove the current partial install of iTunes so I can reinstall my original version or complete the partial install.
    Can someone please help me out?????
    Thanks

    Have a similar problem trying to install iTunes after a comlete removal based on the instructions from Apple I keep on getting the message "registering iTunes automation server". The installation process stops there and then. Repeated removals of the installation including the Temp folder and reinstalling iTunes doesn't help. Even tried an install of QuickTime before the install of iTunes. Again the installation stops at exactly the same point. I do restart the computer every time after the removal of the software. Does anyone have any other suggestions I could follow up? Thanks for the eventual suggestions.
