    Hi there OneWhosNeckIAmOn, 

     

    If you have as yet been unable to install iTunes AMDS driver successfully, I would like to recommend the troubleshooting in the following article about issues with installing iTunes on Windows, named:

     

    Issues installing iTunes for Windows

     

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

    All the very best,

    Sterling

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

     

    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

     

     

     

    The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if a component such as Apple Mobile Device Support won't install normally.
