Runtime error R6034

This is an update for those who might experience my same problems, in my case I couldn't remove the apple directory in programs/common files because of the iCloud application running (not mentioned on the procedures here).

I managed delating the Apple directory after removing iCloud from Chrome Extensions, terminating all of the apple servicies through ctrl/alt/canc/process comand and then unistalling iCloud by the control panel (still not sure if i lost all of my data doing so, but it seemed it was the last chance for me).

Then I reinstalled iTunes, which seems to work now.

It was a nightmare, i lost one day, I definitely won't update anything from Apple since now on without seeing the others comments first, appreciate a lot this kind of support, but it's still sad seeing a Company like Apple turning its clients as tester.

I honestly didn't expect this.

Thank you very much.

Many thanks - this also worked for me although I could not uninstall the Apple Mobile Device Support either. Pity that Apple releases updates that don't work.

Many thanks turingtest2 for the suggestion. Followed your guidance re the ordering of removal and it worked first time.🙂

In my case it did work. Thanks very much turingtest2. I was freaking out!

Thank you Turingtest2 for solving our little problem with this update 😀. I am really hoping the folks over at Apple are aware of this problem and don't give us an unstable update ever again. 😠 Now I gotta see if my library is in bad shape.

Thank you ! I tought I had a huge problem and needed to bring my PC to a specialist !!!

This one worked for me.

Thank you, I spent hours trying to fix this, was driving me crazy!!

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)

Remove all of these items in the following order:

• iTunes
• Apple Software Update
• Apple Mobile Device Support
• Bonjour
• Apple Application Support

Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.

This works! Saved me downloading other programs to "fix" my R6034 error.

Thanks

Hey, thank you!! I'd been wasting hours trying to fix this!!

You're welcome. 🙂

I'm very frustrated too!

You saved me many many hours of frustration. I can't thank you enough..

Me too. You rock ! Thank you !

Thank You turingtest2 so very much for the instructions on recovering my iTunes library! Music is a large part of my life. d🙂b

I still can't get this to work. Taken steps in previous posts (Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8). Was able to remove everything in C:\Program Files (x86). Not able to remove C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple.

Per the instructions checked the task manager for iPodService.exe Alert. It was not there. I keep getting an error message stating that the file is open in Windows Explorer. The error message says it's the ShellSteams64.dll. The file description says Apple Photostreams UI Shell Extension. Any advice
