When updating Itunes I keep getting an error messge mobile device failed to start check for sufficient privileges
I need help upgrading Itunes.I keep getting an error message that says
Mobile device failed to start check for sufficient privileges.I am running windows 8
Same here - did the latest iTunes update and boy am I glad I did that; haven't been able to run iTunes since. Have re-installed after uninstalling as per one of the other help pages, re-booting, and now instead of getting the above error message I get one that says Apple Application support not found. Please uninstall then reinstall. Apple error 2.
Not thanks - Apple, you might want to do something about this I'm guessing since I'm no longer able to use iTunes thanks to your update?

Last time I opened ITunes, was told I did not have latest version and proceeded to download new version. As it was loaded, keep getting message that Apple Mobile Devices failed to start, verify that I have sufficient privileges to start system services. I am the only user on the computer and in household. I have tried installing several timees and keep getting same message.

My ITunes library failed to start after an upgrade, now I'm unable to open or re-install. Receive an error message stating that "apple mobile device failed to start, check to see that you have sufficient priveleges to run system". Any help with this? I've tried un-installing and downloading only to get the same message again.
Thank you to "turingtest2", solution for someone else worked for me as well!

I went to do an iTunes upgrade and got an error message that it could not be found? It suggested I uninstall and reinstall my iTunes. After a failed attempt, I realized the location was set to the default hard drive of C:, so I tried again by changing the location to my external hard drive. Now I get an error message that says:
Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
Help! What's the deal?
StaceyHello staceonbass,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
Check for .dll files
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
Reboot your computer.
Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
Best of luck,

Try using the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility and delete the iTunes installer. Then try installing iTunes again

Reinstalling iTunes and getting message "service 'apple mobile device'failed to start.Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services"
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.
