cannot get 8.2 to install on XP or VISTA
Has anyone attempted to update itunes to v8.2 or installed 8.2 on a windows PC? I have one PC with VISTA and another with XP. Neither will install 8.2. On the XP machine, when I double click the .exe file, nothing happens. On the Vista, I get the following error:
"The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To retry these operations at a later time, please run the installer again. Click Finish to exit the installer." Has anyone encountered this problem? I can't sync my 3Gs unless i get the updated version of iTunes. Tnx. |

I'm trying to update my sister's iTunes on her laptop to 8.2. Installing is taking forever. The only thing I can think of is that there's a mass rush to download and install 8.2. I had the same proble
with OS 3.0 on Wednesday.

The download may have been corrupted. I would re-download, or d/l from another source.

I rebooted the laptop and started the download over again. This time it went smoothly and now I am rebooting after the install.

Good news. I got 8.2 to install and now have everything synced with my new 3Gs. I found my co-worker was able to install 8.2 and she gave me a copy of it on a CD. Took it home and off it went. I guess there is something either with my router or ISP that caused the file to be affected that prevented it from running properly. Thanks for all the suggestions.
