  Cannot install itunes for windows - error: Apple Application Support is required to run Itunes Helper. Uninstall and reinstall (as I did twice)

  For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

  The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

  Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

  More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.

  Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

• cannot update or uninstall iTunes because "iTunes.msi" not found - HELP Please

  November 8, 2011 - on window XP

  "iTunes.msi" - not found - and therefore prevents the update AND uninstall iTunes!

  iTunes.msi is setup.  Normally, it is missing because you didn't upload.

  However, in the rest of the error message you forgot, the problem probably turns out to be that you have downloaded a new version of iTunes and it will not be installed because it's hard to uninstall the previous version.

  It's always a good idea to post the full error message without paraphrase.  It also helps others help if you describe the circumstances surrounding the error.

  Assuming that my crystal ball reveals precisely your problem, the solution is the following:

  This message occurs when the registry key pointing to iTunes uninstaller is corrupted (or uninstall of iTunes has been moved or deleted).  The simplest thing to do is just clean things, and then try again.

  Used to have a tool just to do this, called the Windows Installer Microsoft Cleanup utility.  Apparently, however, when this tool has been used (I think with MS Office), removes sometimes more he was supposed to, and that's why Microsoft has removed the tool of its download servers.

  The Windows Installer Cleanup utility is always available from http://majorgeeks.com/Windows_Installer_CleanUp_Utility_d4459.html , or you can use the free Revo Uninstaller.  Before using or the other of these tools, create a restore point from the system, backup the registry with C:\WINDOWS\ERUNT, or (if you can afford) creates a full disk image or a clone - just in case.

  Here are the usual directions to perform a "clean installation" of iTunes, based on Support of Apple HT1926 article.

  Go to control panel > Add/Remove programs
  Remove these applications:
  1 Apple Software Update
  2. Apple Mobile Device Support
  3 Hello
  4 iPod for Windows (this may or may not exist, be it, it is not necessary, then we can remove it)
  5 iTunes
  6 QuickTime

  Open my computer > C: > Program Files
  Delete this files (if present)
  1 iPod
  2 iTunes
  3 QuickTime

  Empty your temp directory:
  Open my computer > C: > Documents & Settings > username > Local Settings and delete the contents of the folder called "Temp".

  If you don't see the local settings, enable hidden files:
  Tools > Folder Options > view tab
  Select Show Hidden Files & folder, and then click OK

  Once this file is empty, restart the computer

  [See note above regarding cleanup utility]
  Download & install the Windows Installer Cleanup utility:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/290301/
  Launch the utility: start > programs > Windows Installer Clean Up
  Select one of the applications mentioned above and click on remove

• Help to remove/uninstall "iTunes."

  My Dell XPS M1330 laptop was purchased three years with Window Vista 64-bit; I had no problem with all installed software, including the iTunes64, it was working perfectly. I bought the iPhone G4, I tried to back up iPhone to my laptop using iTunes64, for some reason iTunes stop working and unable to do the backup. I shot and restarted with the hope the iTunes will work normally, but he did not, I tried to uninstall, it won't lack of asking iTunes64.msi, despite the location and clicking ok, but nothing happened.  I started to Google looking for a solution and found this problem is common and I followed the recommendation of forums which the one published by Apple.

  For the past three days, have worked on this issue, I have lost all hope of solution and I get irritated.  Might someone help...? Someone has a code that I can stick to RUN to uninstall iTunes. Sometimes there's a friend gave a code to remove MSN Messenger from programs and features.

  My emails are: * address email is removed from the privacy * and * address email is removed from the privacy *

• Uninstall Itunes

  Hello!  I have recently tried to uninstall iTunes, because when I tried to update it told me that was missing the file "iTunes6464.msi".  I tried to replace the file and eventually remove the registry by accident.  After that, I decided to try to delete all the files on itunes on my computer, using a cleaning program.  Now, I essentially have a blank iTunes that I can't uninstall and I was wondering if there was something I could do, or if I probably need to call technical support at this point?

  I click on itunes error icon problem with shortcut that this action is only valid for products that are currently installed. First I tried to search for the file, no luck. I tried the system restore. I tried "winrar" apparently there are no files to extract. I also tried "Ccleaner" is there anything else I can do I tried for 48 hours!
  This is the error message when the uninstall - the component you are trying to use is on a network unavailable resource. Click Ok and try again, or enter a different path to the folder containing the installation package 'itunes.msi' in the box below. I ran a search and found a file through the opening of the selected path and an error message saying that it is not a valid package for the itunes program. try to find the itunes.msi in a folder from which you can install itunes.

  Windows Installer cleanup utility is no longer available for download from Microsoft. He turned to damage other components and should not be used.

  It would be better to post this question in the discussion forums Apple for assistance.

• Try to uninstall iTunes

  Impossible to uninstall itunes - error tells me that I do not have this server network. I have all the steps up to 9 completed & will try that next, but still waiting for a response!

  I can't uninstall or reinstall QuickTime or iTunes. I am running Windows XP.

  Received a new computer, but the saved music. iTunes, originally worked fine.

  I have taken several steps.

  1. with the help of Add/Remove Programs, I tried to uninstall QuickTime and iTunes. The two uninstall failed because of "missing .msi file." Using search, I find quicktime.msi in Windows and tried to uninstall again, this time directing the program uninstaller in the folder where fichier_MSI resided.

  2. has received the error "strives to access a network or a disk that is no longer available.

  3. I contacted Apple support by phone. Tech walked me through the download and installation of iTunes, but received the same mistakes. He suggested I have contact the Windows Support.

  4. the search through questions, I found this point.

  Here is what has been proposed and I'll try, I don't know where to find the Windows Installer CleanUp utility program.

  6. I used the HP online help program and reported the errors as above, requesting help to find missing msi file. Answer: "you must first uninstall the ITunes of the components of the computer and re-install the latest version of iTunes."

  7. I'd like to! But I can't do it with the old files that won't uninstall, that's why I contacted them in the first place.

  Then I tried manually delete all the files I could find who was inside QuickTime files, however, some files not can be removed.

  9. now iTunes will not work because it indicates that the files are missing.

  10. open the program from my pc (which is how I got from HP support) and sought assistance error codes. He directed me to Microsoft technical support.

  11. I found similar error codes that were set by using Windows Installer CleanUp Utility.

  12. I downloaded the utility opened by instructions and sought the list of programs that may be uninstalled. He registered iTunes, but not QuickTime. I used it to uninstall iTunes.

  13. returned to Apple, downloaded program iTunes, but error code says: "unable to remove an older version of QuickTime. Contact your technical support group. »

  Hoping that Microsoft can help. How can I get the old files to uninstall when the cleanup utility cannot locate? I can not uninstall files, nor can I reinstall fresh versions.

  HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Your best resource for addressing this situation isn't necessarily technical support from Apple, but Apple's iTunes forums.  These forums, like this one, are met, not by Apple employees (or in this case, the employees of Microsoft), but are a place where users can help each other.

  Forum: Installation & update iTunes for Windows

  It is possible that the Windows Installer Cleanup utility would help, but given the State of your system, it is not sure that you would be better or worse off.  The usual technique would be to run the Installer Cleanup Utility, and then try to re - install iTunes, then (if desired) uninstall iTunes, QuickTime, Hello, update the software Apple, Apple Mobile Device Support and Apple Application Support. Seethis article .

  Microsoft has removed the utility install Microsoft Downloads Cleanup because sometimes it seems "damaged other components" (which I guess means that he "cleaned up" things that should have been left alone).  If you want to try it, you can always get it from Major Geeks .

  I agree with PML, use Apple iTunes forums, they can be a real useful sometimes.

• Impossible to uninstall iTunes after downgrading to windows from 10 to 7

  I love having new things first.  lol so when Windows 10 came out I had to update immediately.  I should have checked to see if my programs and drivers were compatible.  They were not.  So I uninstalled 10 and I went back to 7.  The only thing that seems to have been affected was my iTunes program.  For some reason, I think that is the iTunes Installer has been moved or corrupted.  The first time a new update was released for iTunes, my computer downloaded the new update, but it was impossible to remove the old program iTunes.  So I tried to remove iTunes from Add/Remove programs function in the control panel.  I get the following:
