At the bottom of the box was the option to click ok so i click it then nothing happens and it doesent install. I have tried to solve this problem by doing things such as removing all apple software are rebooting the system, attempting to download an earlier version of itunes (same installation error occured) and finally i tried to get an installer clean up package from microsoft website but i could get it to run it says syntax error which i know envoles the command text being wrong or invalid to my opperating system. can anybody just tell me away I can get itunes back i have'nt lost any music because its all saved on my pc and still on my nano! I just want to add new music to my ipod which i can't because i can't get itunes :(

I see this alot.... Here is a post that might be able to help.



For those of you that might have issues removing iTunes I have found an invaluable source that saved me hours of time. Its an eManual with software on "How To Completely Uninstall and Remove all Traces of iTunes" It worked great. was worth it! There are registry key edits that are needed with some of the helper apps like Bonjour that are installed along with iTunes. Getting that crap off your PC is not as simple as using ADD/REMOVE. Unless you get that crap off your system you will have trouble trying to re-install iTunes. I was going nuts until I found this.



You can find it from two download sources:
