When trying to install, get a Win32 Error

I have tried to find a solution to this but all I have found are a lot of unanswered message board questions. lol I just got an iPod Nano but when trying to install iTunes, I get the following error after trying to run the setup.
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\######\iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application.
The ###s are a file name that is random, as I simply tried to run, not save it. I tried to save the file to the desktop, but it gave me the same error, just replaced the #s to "Desktop" and so on.
Can anyone direct me in resolving this issue? If it helps, I am using AOL to browse.
Windows XP Pro

Well a invalid Win32 to be honest is never good, its kinda a hit and miss on fixing it.
Sometimes doing simple things fix it, other times the user has to create a whole new user profile and delete the one they currently have.
If your on Dail up, try using a download manager to get itunes, as mentioned above on dail up with itunes being so big it tends to get corrupted easy during download
First try reinstalling the windows installer from microsoft at this site (For WIndows 2000 SP3 and up/ Windows XP) http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=889482fc-5f56-4a38-b838 -de776fd4138c&DisplayLang=en
Then disable your antivirus/security programs and try downloading AND SAVING the itunes program thru another browser like Internet explorer or firefox, something else besides AOL browser. Once the download is finished goto where you saved it and double click it to install

Thanks. I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data. Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again.

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Hi Rick,
by "repair" I mean I went to the control panel, option - programs and features, and in the list of all my installed programs I selected "Apple Software Update". On top of the screen you find the options Uinstall, Change and Repair. I clicked the repair button and that did the trick. After the repair I could uninstall the program. I also uninstalled iTunes, Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support en Bonjour, thus all Apple programs. Then I installed iTunes 10.5 again and everything went fine.
Success,
Peter

Error when trying to install Adobe Acrobat Pro, recently purchased.

Recently purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro, when trying to install get an error message 'Your account subscription cannot be validated'. Have tried several times, double checked login etc, but same message each time.
Please help, how to fix this issue??

Hi camelon,
Please delete the "Acrobat" and "OOBE" folders found in
on Mac: <yourusername>/Library/Application Support/Adobe
on Windows XP: <youruser>\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe

If there's no change in behavior, please attempt to go to:

I cancelled the update and my phone is fne. Has anyone else experience this? What is the cause/solution?
Yhanks!

DON'T DO IT! Read the threads ... there is a MAJOR problem with updating iPhones 3GS/4 to iOS 5.
Take it to the Apple store and ask them to do it.
I repeat: DON'T DO IT YOURSELF.

When Trying to Install Labview 8.6.1 on Windows 7 Get Error Code -12

When Trying to Install Labview Deveopment Suite 8.6.1 on Windows 7 Get " *** Error: Windows SDK Function Returned an Error (Error Code -12)"
I assume a compatability issue will Labview installer and Windows 7. Is there a work arround?

I figured as much, but maybe if enough peole are interested NI will be pushed to a solution.
It's not that the programm won't run, it's that the installer fails before it even gets installed.
I am using Windows 7 RC Build 7100. It installs and runs just fine in Virtual XP Mode on Virtual PC for windows 7 (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx) which I find works better than compatability mode.
Thanks for your help.
