Windows 7 - Error on iTunes 10.5 install

rmunk · 10-13-2011

I'm running Windows 7 64bit and have tried several times to install iTunes 10.5, both over iTunes 10.4 and separately. Everytime I get the error message - "a network error occurred while attempting to read from the file:C:|windows\installer\applesoftwareupdate.msi". I have tried to search apple support for some ideas, but nothing.

Have you tried redownloading a new copy of the iTunes setup?

Yes, I did download a second copy, but same results.

I am not sure if makes a difference whether you tried to download directly from Apple website, or whether you opened iTunes and checked for Updates by clicking Help. I recall that itunes updated something before it let me download I0.5. I opened iTunes and checked for update.

I found a fix via google:

See if that works for you.
