Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • I uninstalled itunes.  when i reinstalled i get "Apple application support not found.  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling again but same problem

    I uninstalled itunes and when I reinstalled it I get "Apple application support not not found."  Uninstall and then install.  Tried and not helping.

    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.)

  • Tried to reinstall itunes and got apple application support not found. i have a folder on my desktop of apps removed during a refresh and all my apple stuff is in that folder.

    Im running windows 8 on my desktop. i tried to reinstall itunes and when i open it i get the following message " Apple Application Support not found, Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes". I have a folder on my desktop that has files in it that says Apps removed during refresh and  there is Apple files in there. Im guessing this could be a windows issue but Im not to good with computers. Any help would be great.

    Hello agerveler,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like we may need to do a complete removal of iTunes and its components, followed by a reinstall.  Follow the instructions in the following article to resolve your issue:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

  • Itune launch issue-Apple Application Support not found

    I did some serious cleaning on my computer yesterday and may have accidentally removed a program that is needed to open Itunes. When I click to open Itunes, I get an error message stating that Apple Application Support was not found. I have tried to re-install itunes and that has not worked. If I completely remove Itunes, will I lose all my music??

    You could try downloading and installing 7-Zip (free) and downloading a fresh copy of the iTunes installer, unpack the installer into its components using 7-Zip then try installing AppleApplicationSupport again. It may still fail to install but you may get more useful error messages as to why not.

  • Itunes won't install. Error message: Apple Application Support not found

    Itunes won't install. Error message: Apple Application Support not found.  What is the fix for this?

    It is always these four updates that fail.  I've tried downloading and installing them seperately from apple downloads.  I've tried various recommended fixes, and nothing I can figure out works.  Before these problems, itunes worked on the computer for a year.
    Thank you again for wanting to help me.

  • Apple Application Support not found - any soloutions?

    Hi. Last year i had my pc stolen and had to install pod to pc software on my new pc to upload all my itunes from my ipod which worked. I have recently installed itunes 10.5, however when i try to get back into itunes it says "apple application support not found" and that i have to uninstall itunes and reinstall to make it work. I tried to do this but it said it couldn't do this. Does anyone have any ideas on how i ca retrieve my itunes on my pc?  Thanks

    Hi all
    I had the same problem and was able to solve it, kindly follow the below steps;
    Download the installation file iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunesSetup64.exe if you are on a 64-bit system) from apple
    Extract or unzip the iTunesSetup.exe
    Open the folder iTunesSetup (or iTunesSetup64) created in the previous step
    Double-click the file AppleApplicationSupport.msi
    (or AppleApplicationSupport64.msi if you have a 64-bit system)
    Choose
    "Repair" if you are prompted (if you are not prompted that's fine, too)
    Your iTunes installation should work now.
    Regards,
    Rami

  • HELP"apple application support not found when installing itunes after a hard drive crash and replace

    HELP"   error "apple application support not found" when downloading itunes after a hard drive crash and replacement????

    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 so, does iTunes launch properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
