Windows installer not installed?

hi a message comes out when i try to delete iTunes 6 and try to install itunes 7.02 or whatever so it says like windows installer can not be found pls contact suppot for assistance or you could be running in safe mode. SOMEBODY PLS HELP I CANNOT DOWNLOAD SONGS TO MY IPOD WITHOUT ITUNES 7!

I had the exact same problem and almost threw my PC out the window. I kept getting messages that my window installer could not be located and that I might be operating in safe mode. I called Apple support and was told, this was a new problem and could not help me. The only thing they did do was direct me to the Microsoft Windows website. Do this: Go to the Microsoft Windows website and type in "error 1719" at the search bar. It will come up with two fix methods. Start with the first one, if that doesn't work, do Method 2 also. This helped me and I was able to remove my old itunes version and install the 7.0 version successfully. Apple is selling products that they cannot support on a windows platform. Your best bet is to turn to your friend BILL GATES and utilize the Microsoft tools to fix your problem.

Windows Installer not installed properly, then boots to safe mode w/no backlight?

I have only used my laptop for about 2 weeks.
I tried to download an Adobe Reader update, and I got a message that said "Windows Installer was not installed correctly."
I retarted my computer, but it would only boot in safe mode.
I tried a System Restore, but I got a message that said "System Restore doesn't appear to be functioning properly."
I tried to do a virus scan (just in case), but my computer will not connect to the internet, so that's not working, either.
I tried to restart once more, but as soon as I went to put my password in, the backlight on the laptop would shut off, and then it would only boot in safe mode.
I put the laptop away for a little while because my life got very busy and I didn't have the time to deal with it. Today, when I turned the laptop on to try and troubleshoot, it booted normally, and successfully- no safe mode, backlight still on- and then it told me that System Restore had worked.
What gives?
Anyone have any ideas what happened / what I did to make this happen / how I can avoid it in the future / if the computer is actually going to function properly or if it needs to be sent back?
Thanks!

Hello SuperNova and welcome to community,
When you restore the system earlier to back date it did not get complete and also Windows 7 has startup repair option which fixes the common startup bugs.

Bootcamp windows installation not installing Windows 7

Hi
I recently installed Windows 7 on my 6months old macbook pro 17 via bootcamp 2,0.
I installed the audio from a driver which I got at realtek.com
But on my previous bootcamp partitions(WIndows XP) I just installed and then booted in windows from my Mac OS X Install DVD(windows support) and everything got installed - including the trackpad(mouse touch pad).
But when I put in the installation DVD in Win 7 I can only choose to install some kind of Macbook Air DVD and network sharing program, which Ive never seen before(I dont have an MB Air either?:S).
My two mac discs that came with my mac is the ''17-inch Macbook Pro Mac OS X Install DVD'' AND ''17-inch Macbook Pro Application Install DVD''.
How do I install the bootcamp drivers, which I need to install in order to get WINDOWS 7 to work properly in my bootcamp partition??
Please send link to drivers etc.

Go to your Apple icon in the top left hand corner and click then choose About this Mac. If the version is 10.5. 0 to 10.5.8 then it’s Leopard. If it’s 10.6.0 to 10.6.2 then it’s Snow Leopard.
What you need is Snow Leopard. If your Mac is 6 months old and you have Leopard then I think you are entitled to a free or a reduced price upgrade.

Reinstalling Mavericks depends on several factors:
if you erased your recovery partition
what OS originally came on your Mac.
I'll assume you don't have a backup available that you made before your mishap, because you didn't mention it.
That's really the take home message here: have a backup!
If you still have your recovery partition:
boot into the recovery partition (command R at restart)
use the recovery partition to reinstall Mavericks. see: OS X: About OS X Recovery
if you do not still have your recovery partition, then it depends on whether your Mac originally came with installer disks or not.
If it originally came with installer disks, you would boot from the installer disks, erase your HD, and then reinstall the OS that is on the installer disks, and then upgrade as necessary until you get to Mavericks.
If your mac did not originally come with installer disks, but you managed to erase your recovery partition, then you can try to boot into internet recovery (option-command-R at restart), and use internet recovery to erase your HD and reinstall the OS that originally came with your computer, and then upgrade to Mavericks if you need to. See: Hands on with Mountain Lion's OS X Recovery and Internet Recovery | Macworld
(the reference refers to ML but it applies just as well to Mavericks).

Touchsmart IQ524 hard drive crashed. Ran Recovery CDs and I get an error Windows can not install on

I have an HP Touchsmart IQ524 which the hard drive crashed. I replaced the hard drive with the exact same model. I run the Recovery CDs (which I purchased from HP website) and it goes all the way through the process and after the reboot I get a message that "Windows can not install software on this hardware" - so it never completes the process. I have formatted the hard drive and bought and returned 3 hard drives. Any suggestions and assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Hi:
I love recovery disks when they work, and HATE them when they don't.
Fortunately, I have a workaround for you which isn't as good as a recovery disk, but it is better than pulling your hair out, and getting nowhere.
First of all, before you try this, did you perform the recovery with only the keyboard and mouse connected?
Did you buy the same size or larger hard drive?
If your answer to either question is no, then that may be the problem.
Now to the workaround...
If you're up to a slight but rewarding challenge you can make your own if you can read your 25 character Vista product key on the PC.
Just download the 3 files you need at the link below, and read all of the instructions to create a bootable DVD installation disk using imageburn.
Disregard the part of the text under the first screen shot about "extract the files to the Vista folder."
The files were already extracted to that folder when you ran the X14.exe file by reading the text on top of the first screen shot.
The other thing I noticed is on the 4th screen shot, where it shows Developer ID Microsoft Corporation. I had to type Microsoft Corporation in myself, and then the other codes automatically populated.
When I went to compile the ISO file, ImageBurn gave a message that about a WIM file and ISO, and if I wanted to burn it in a different format.
I selected No, make the ISO file.
It was not that hard to do. I burned both the 64 bit disk and the 32 bit disk in case I ever need them.
I tested both of them on my hp dc7100 CMT desktop PC, they worked perfectly.
When you enter the product key, it knows what version of Vista you have.
http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/software-os/w/microsoft_os/3317.2-3-microsoft-windows-v....
After you successfully install Vista, you can then install the drivers from your PC's support and driver page.

"Windows Installation not Successful. Your previous version of Windows is being restored."

I received the message "Windows Installation not Successful. Your previous version of Windows is being restored." at end of Windows 8 installation. I do not know what caused the installation to fail.
I was upgrading from Windows 7 Professional, Service Pack 1, to Windows 8.1

You cannot disable UEFI if your Windows 7 was installed with UEFI. The System Reserved partition is different for UEFI than for legacy BIOS and your Windows 7 system will not boot in the legacy BIOS mode.
Booting from DVD should not give you the Windows logo because it should boot into the DVD setup mode.

Install problems due to Windows Installer not being accessed

I have been trying to correct the issues with Windows Installer for days. IO have tried "re-start" through the "run" program via the start menu. I have tried "fix It" throught Windows web site. I am running Windows XP media edition and IE 8. What can I do to allow Windows Intaller access and download Adobe Reader?
TAROZ

A blank message isn't very helpful...
If I were you, I would try running the Actobat and Reader Cleanup Tool
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.htm
to remove all traces of any versions of Reader.
Then, if you want to reinstall Reader, download its full installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

Windows installer not booting after boot camp partition

I'm running OSX 10.9.4 and trying to boot camp windows 8. Everything is going right up until after the partition when the Mac restarts. It goes back to OSX and doesnt launch the windows installer.

I haven't really kept up lately but the only thing I see missing in your information is you didn't say if you had Formatted the Boot Camp partitiion to NTFS. The last I looked into Boot Camp that was one of the mandatory things you had to do in order for the installer to "see" the partition.
You end up formating it twice.
The original format when you make the Windows partition should be "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" it's done by the Mac (BootCamp) then when your booted from the Windows installer you then have to format it again with the NTFS format. And of course it has to be on an internal drive. And a full install disk not an upgrade disk. Boot Camp 5?
Take a gander at the instructions again and see if you might have missed a step?
Hope it helped, at least I bumped ya up.......

Installer not installing!

I have recently acquired a new HP machine, stock from the good people at staples. I have tried to install reader on this machine many times and failed miserably. I download the installer, run it. The progress bar fills to completion, and then.. nothing. Reader just isn't on my computer afterwards and I still can't open PDFs.
I have tried running Adobe Air, tried making sure all the various pluggins are running on firefox, tried downloading through internet explorer. I have run the installer probably a good dozen times by now, from different downloads, at different times. Nothing seems to actually put Reader on my computer.
Any ideas?

That is indeed the installer I have been trying to run. (When I downloaded it again from your link it replaced the one I currently had.) As you can see the process runs to 100% and then simply disapears. I have noticed that it seems to be trying to run an update, and without any software to update that might have something to do with the issue. That said, I thought all these times I was actually downloading an installer not a mere update, but this is all I've been able to accomplish thusfar. After completion, I try opening a pdf file. No avail.
I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.

Windows Will Not Install on A21M.

Hello All,
I have an A21m laptop which is having issues with Windows installation.
Two seperate Windows XP install cd's along with a Windows 2003 install cd fail to complete the install.
It always stops at the '34 minutes remaining...' portion of the Windows install for XP.
Anyone seen this issue before or have any clue as to what's happening here?
Any help is much appreciated!

I was referring to the mini-PCI card which is in your laptop, and can be accessed from the bottom of the machine, by opening one of the 2 doors you have there-the other door covers RAM.
Remove the card and start the install over, and let's see what happens.
Good luck and let us know.
Cheers,
George

Windows Installer not recognizing partition!

Hey all, I just bought a macbook pro yesterday and have been trying my hardest to install xp viz boot camp. When I start boot camp, I set the partition to 32GB, then click partition. Then a boot camp icon appears on the desktop showing it is 32.11GB in size.
Next it says to put in the XP CD and click start installation. Do that computer restarts, then begins installing windows. However once it gets to the part of choosing which partition to put it on all it shows is c: with 1310xxx MB for the partition. Basically I think it is not seeing my boot camp partition for one reason or another.
I have tried multiple times removing the partition then re-creating it and doing it over and over and cannot seem to find out why the partition isn't being recognized. Any help at all would be great as it doesn't seem anyone has a solution to it. Thanks!

I am trying to install Bootcamp, I've followed the instructions up to this point:
1
If you already quit Boot Camp Assistant without installing Windows:
a
Open Boot Camp Assistant.
b
Select “Start the Windows installer.”
c
Click Continue.
2
If you are using a computer with more than one internal disk, select the disk on which
you want to install Windows, and then click Continue.
3
Insert your Windows installation disc.
4
In Boot Camp Assistant, click Start Installation.
5
Your computer starts up from the Windows installation disc. Follow the onscreen
instructions. Refer to the following sections for more information.
Selecting the Windows Partition
It is very important to select the correct partition when installing Windows so that you
don’t overwrite Mac OS X on your computer.
To select the correct partition for Windows XP:
m
Select “C: Partition3 <BOOTCAMP> [FAT32].”
When I select the "C" partition by arrowing down,and hitting enter, I do not get the choice to format the partition that was initially created, what is going wrong?

Windows installer not working

I just purchased my Toshiba about a week ago. Everything worked fine but now it won't install anything. I'm not receiving any error messages or anything, it just won't open at all. The problem started yesterday. I downloaded Google Chrome and tried running the file to install it but nothing happens. I've even right clicked and tried running as administrator but still nothing. Windows installer worked perfectly the day before yesterday, as it allowed me to install Silverlight and Adobe flashplayer, but as of yesterday nothing will install.
I also noticed this morning while trying to uninstall a program the same problem happened. The only difference was that about 10 minutes after I tried uninstalling I finally had the Windows Installer box pop up on my screen but then it took 30 minutes or so for the 11 MB program to be uninstalled.

I don't know if this has anything to do with it but my computer just made me update my BIOS from 6.5 to 6.6. After my computer restarted and booted back up I tried installing chrome again and windows installer started without a problem.
Maybe the problem was just that my computer wasn't up to date?
