Having trouble with installing iTunes

Darcy, on Sunday September 7, 2008 09:18:43 AM
Hello, I don't know if anyone else has had this problem but I am unable to save iTunes onto my laptop. I have downloaded it at least 20 times and clicked the save button but it says that it has saved but it has not. Without itunes I am unable to set up my daughters ipod nano which I brought for her as a B'day present. I have even had my nephew out to try and he is a whizz on computers but he can't even do it. What can I do someone plz help me????? I have Vista.
Configuration: Windows Vista
Internet Explorer 7.0

hi there,

when you bought the ipod didnt you get a cd installation with it?

if yes then install itunes from the cd and why do you want to download it?

No I did'nt get an installation cd with it (I don't know why). I was told I have to install iTunes in order to setup the ipod as it is new. Also to sync music to it??????

um, you need to download itunes 8.0.1 from www.apple.com and then run it on your pc. after you install it it should be on the start>all programs menu if it doesnt automatically start. then when you plug in the ipod it should start, then download music from itunes and you can probably be able to do it from there. this will probaly be my only time on this blog so i prob cant answer questions. a 15 year old.

State exactly what your problem is.

You can't find itunes after it was downloaded or it will not download?

sorry, i download the set-up file from Apple.com, once i run it, it then starts installing. After that it says itunes successfully installed on my computer. But there is no shortcut on my desktop, or icon in my start>programs.. its nowhere to be seen. Iv tried downloading Microsoft tweak and making sure the MyMusic folder is in the correct place. Iv also downloaded microsoft install clean up and made sure all itunes and quicktime was fully removed from my computer (as far as i could see), and reinstalled. But same thing. Any suggestions??

Thanks for reply!

maybe it just failed to create the shortcuts

open C drive - Program Files - iTunes folder double click on iTunes (.exe)
if it opens then you can rijght click again and drag iTunes to the deskTop (create shortcut)

no there's no itunes folder in program files.. its very strange. Says it installs successfully and then no trace! I think it installs too quickly too. I go through the usual options hitting next to install, and the loader shoots up within seconds.. something seems wrong..?!?!

I'm having exactly teh same problem... I just got this new PC with Vista on it and downloaded Itunes 8. installed it and there is no trace of it anywhere. No shorcuts on the desktop or the programs list. No itunes folder in the Programs folder. It's not even on te list of programs under the control panel. Nothing! Nada! Zilch! ... It's as if it was never installed.

I don't want to plug my ipod in b/c I want to make sure nothing syncs incorrectly on my ipod - just in case it IS there somewhere. I don't want to loose any music, etc.

Apple is so frusterating!

I would try the Anapod Reinitializer (Link Below) it is a great tool that will allow you to format your ipod to a windows format, In my experience most ipods are mac formatted and thats where the troubles with windows begins. Anyways after you reformat it you can initialize it.

This tool works great when the pod can be seen in windows but not itunes. After you reinitialize the ipod it should show up in itunes.

http://www.redchairsoftware.com/anapod/reinit.php


Other things I've found that help you avoid problems:
-start up itunes before you connect your ipod
-never use the safe eject hardware to eject your ipod, always use itunes to eject
-wait until your ipod is fully disconnected before you unplug the cable

I hope this works for you let me know!

i am having sort of a similar problem but not exactly. i am using windows xp and i have an older version of itunes, but now need to upgrade to itune 8 b/c i just purchased an iphone. i am not what you would call computer savy. i simply know how to do what i need to do on it. when i got to the apple site and click to download itunes 8 (which i have numerous times) after a few seconds it bring me to a new page that states "thank you for downloading itunes 8" but the "run/save" window never appears for me?? any suggestions?

Yeah I am having the same troubles installing iTunes 8. It installs all the way, but then there's some error with Quicktime. Then a message pops up saying it's installed but with some errors. Then when I open iTunes its the same old veresion still there. Then another message comes up saying iTunes stopped working... once you close iTunes another message comes up saying iTunes won't work because it's an old version... But I can't install the new version because of Quicktime?? I need help!
