Itunes 11.1.1 Errors occurred during installation...

Had this issue, and none of the solutions above worked, here is what I did to fix the issue, Install Itunes like you normally would, admin rights ect. When you get the error message "Itunes errors occurred during installation before itunes could be configured" do not click finish, leave that folder up, no navigate to your appdata directory such as example C:\Users\Your Username\appdata\local\temp, inside there look for a file called iTunes64Setup.log or iTunes32Setup1850.log, open that up and scroll down, look for these key things as in example, "Executing: "C:\windows\system32\msiexec.exe" /i "C:\Users\Crusisxx\AppData\Local\Temp\IXP593.TMP\iTunes64.msi" INSTALL_SUPPORT_PACKAGES=1" so I would navigate inside the folder in my temp called "IXP593.TMP, there you will find all the installation packages, copy all of those files and paste either on your desktop or a new folder ect, once done you can now click finish on the failed itunes installer, now whether or not where ever you decided to place your files you copied from that temp folder you will want to run Itunes64.msi or Itunes.msi ect, and run the installer, you should now have successfully of installed Itunes.

Hello DanHam1985,

Try removing iTunes and its related software components and then try the install again.

Hi Crusisx fix worked for me! Here's a slightly easier version if you are having difficulty deciphering.

1) Install iTunes like you normally would, admin rights etc.

2) When you get the error message "iTunes errors occurred during installation before iTunes could be configured" do not click finish, leave that folder up,

3) Now navigate to your appdata directory such as example C:\Users\Your Username\appdata\local\temp, inside there look for a file called iTunes64Setup.log or iTunes32Setup1850.log. You may have a few logs if you've tried installing a few times.

4) Open that up with a text editor such as Notepad and scroll down (might be at the very bottom) look for a very similar line to the one below:

"Executing: "C:\windows\system32\msiexec.exe" /i "C:\Users\Crusisxx\AppData\Local\Temp\IXP593.TMP\iTunes64.msi"

INSTALL_SUPPORT_PACKAGES=1"

5) You can see in the line above it has a folder in the Temp folder called IXP593.TMP. If you navigate to this folder or one similar starting with IXP you will find about 8-10 files - they are all the installation packages.

6) Copy all of those files and paste onto your desktop or another new folder of your choice.

7) You can now click finish on the failed iTunes installer

8) Wherever you decided to place your files in step 6) you will want to navigate there and double click (run) iTunes64.msi (or iTunes.msi etc) you should now find iTunes installs correctly.

Here’s the solution (inspired by Crusisx!) that worked for me:

1) Install iTunes as you normally would.

2) When you get the error message "iTunes errors occurred during installation before iTunes could be configured" do not click finish and leave that folder up,

3) Now go to C:\Users\Your Username\appdata\local\temp

(If you can’t see your appdata folder when you are in your username folder, just click on VIEW in the menu bar and then click on “Hidden Items” and it will appear as if by magic)

4) Inside the temp folder, look for a file called IXPXXX.TMP (where XXX means any 3 numbers (but the X of IXP is really an X!) (eg: IXP651.TMP)

If there are a couple, find the one that is most recent by right clicking it and choosing properties to find out when it was created.

5) Open the folder and inside you will find some files - they are all the installation packages.

6) Copy all of those files and paste them into a new folder wherever you like.

7) You can now click finish on the failed iTunes installer

8) Now, open the new folder where you copied the files and double click the itunes setup file.

You should now find iTunes installs correctly.

Thanks again, Crusisx!

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.

The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. When reinstalling right click on the downloaded setup file and use run as administrator. With this particular error it may also help to pre-install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable.

Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.

The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, or want to revert to an older version if the current one won't work properly for you at the moment.

Your library and device backups should be unaffected by these steps but there are links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

I tried many things including uninstalling and deleting temp files. What worked for me was to save the iTunes setup download, then right click on the exe and extract to a new folder. Run each of the *.msi in the order they appear leaving iTunes64.msi near the last to be installed. I hope my hours of frustration have helped someone else to resolve this debacle quickly.

Im using a brand new computer. Windows 10, and yet I struggled with this problem for 4 hours trying all the suggestions I could find on the internet (including d'loading older versions). What finally worked for me was deleting all the Itunes installation files and RESTARTING my computer. download a new batch from Itunes website and it finally worked.

I had this same issue!

What I did was go to your download folder right click the iTunes Setup you just downloaded and select "run as administrator"

This solved my issue I hope it can solve yours as well.

Guys the solution is very easy just click right button on Itunes64Setup and then click run as Administrator then click yes.

I had this issue today and the simple fix I used to fix was to right click on the installation file and install as administrator, hopefully that helps someone.

Hi folks

I solved my issue by right clicking on the itunes setup file and then “run as administrator” . iTunes was duly installed . Cheers

What I figured out was that my Windows wasn't able to operate the new ITunes software and therefore I had to download the older version of it which worked! And make sure if your downloading the ITunes, if its for a 32 bit or 64 bit!

Easier solution (Execute via Powershell w/ admin rights):

1. Right click the iTunes setup package (ex: itunes64setup.exe)

2. Click "Properties"

3. Highlight and copy the Location (ex: C:\Users\YourName\Downloads)

4. Go to search bar and search "Powershell"

5. Right click powershell and click "Run as Administrator"

6. Right click anywhere on blue Powershell window. This should paste what we copied from the set up properties.

7. Hit "Enter on Keyboard"

Hope this helps.
