#Cannot install itunes on windows 7 windows 10#

I've uninstalled/reinstalled so many things so many times and used so many tools, I don't know where to go next. There are no folders in Program Files or Program Files (x86) under Common Files. There are no services with the word 'apple' running at all on the machine. 'A later version of Apple Mobile Device Services is already installed' I unpacked the installer, attempted just to install AMDS and get: So the internet tells me this is a problem with Apple Mobile Device Services. It installs AAS, Bonjour, and Apple Update. Ran as administrator - but it gets to 'starting services' and then bombs out and rolls back. Uninstalled everything that was there (in order) again.

It doesn't show up in control panel, Total Uninstall, or in the Windows Installer Clean-up App I've seen suggested elsewhere. 'A later version of Apple Application Services (64-bit) is already installed.' If I use the generic version from the website I get the following error:

All of this and I still can't get iTunes to install. I've also used CCleaner after uninstalling. In the course of trouble shooting, I've done this using windows control panel, and an app called Total Uninstall. and removed everything per the instructions here: Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates But then iTunes never really went away and when it reinstalled, nothing was any different. I tried different cables, different ports, nothing worked and the next bit of advice was to reinstall iTunes.

So this all started because I was having trouble syncing via USB cable.
