iTunes won't install bcuz quicktime won't install. HELP!

I just bought an ipod and I already had the lastest version of Quicktime on my laptop. I downloaded iTunes and when I tried to install it I got this message; "Quicktime would not install properly. iTunes needs Quicktime to run." and my only option is to click "Close" and the whole install is unsuccessful.

I uninstalled the Quicktime and downloaded the QT with iTunes and got the same message when I tried to install.

So, i downloaded QT alone. It installs fine. Then I go to install iTunes and get the same message.

What on earth can I do so I can use this blasted 250 dollar ipod?

 

what os do you have?

 

windows xp.

 

was there a CD that came with your iPod?

 

no, the instructions say to download iTunes from apple.com. I just tried it all again and I am getting the same message.

 

PM me your email, there might be a bug in the software update. I will send you an older version.

Be sure to PM it don't post it in the forum

 

ok. thanks!

 

I am sorry the file is to big to send as an exe do you have aim? or MSN? I can get it to you that way! USe the PM feature again!
