iTunes 7 Installation problems. Please help.

what version of itunes are you trying to install, Moxious?

to check, right-click on the iTunesSetup.exe (installer) file and select "properties". click on the version tab. what file version does it say in there? (for example, mine says "7.0.2.16".)

I have read over all of the tips and itunes still won't open. McAfee antivirus is programmed to allow itunes, i deleted and reinstalled. Quicktime says properly installed but won't open. I have downloaded newest version and doesn't work. Any ideas?

Version 7.0.2.16

okay. with that message on earlier versions (itunes 7.0.0.70 and 7.0.1.8), some folks had some success with pgfpdwife's technique in the following post:

pgfpdwife: Re: Could not open key HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classic\Quicktime.Quicktime\

note carefully that the technique involves a registry edit. be sure to make a backup of any keys you edit. if you're unfamiliar with your registry or registry editing, head to your XP help and support, do a search on registry, and read through the articles that come up.

There are also some instructions on how to back up registry keys in the following document:

Error 1406 or 1402 appears when you install iTunes or QuickTime for Windows

is that of any help with your 7.0.2.16 version of this?
