Hi there ;)

the iTunes7 and Photoshop CS3 beta installers fail with the same error
2739 - iTunes missing vbscript and Photoshop missing jscript.

I searched the web for quite a while and the only solution I read about was
that maybe the windows scripting runtime was not registered correctly. So I
tried a vb-script like "msgbox vbscript.version" and this shows 5.7 (using
Vista 64bit RTM). But I did re-register the vbscript.dll and jscript.dll. As
expected without change in behaviour.

My guess is that this is a problem with the security-settings for the
msi-system not able to run scripts with enough rights (or even at all). So I
switched about anything I found (group policies, security-settings, disabled
uac and so on) - but nothing helps.

I think I'm not the only one who "suffers" from these symptons. Did anybody
successfully found out where the switch is that changes the scripting- or
msi-subsystem to "super-user-let-me-do-anything"?

I hate it when such essential environment are changed without telling
anybody. The RC1-version didn't show this behaviour...

Bye,
Mirko

I also get the VB script error when I install itunes. Does anyone have a
soltuion?

Same error installing iTunes7 here. I searched all over the apple and ms
sites for a solution. No luck. I have a brand new computer with OEM Vista
Home Premium with bundled antivirus and firewall. I don't see any way to
turn off script blocking. I know how to run scripts, but how do you
"re-register VBScript"? It seems like Apple would be getting a ton of
complaints, and post probably a simple fix on their support site?

I downloaded the latest iTunes version and got the same error message. After a lot of trial and error and research on the Internet I found a solution that worked for me. I hope it also helps other users trying to install iTunes on Vista.

1. Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Right Click on Command Prompt -> Run As Administrator.

2. If you don’t end up in the C:\windows\system32 folder, go there

3. Once there type in regsvr32 vbscript.dll and press enter

4. You should get a conformation message

5. Install iTunes



Hope this helps

Lowrider:

Thanks

No Problemo, your Welcome
