I just successfully installed the new Windows 8 on my desktop computer. Now as I was trying to install again my iTunes an error message occurred saying that I need to install apple application support. I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and the same error keeps on showing. What do I need to do in order to properly run it again?

I can’t seem to continue with this error message.

Thanks.

Hi Dustin,
The error is due to the incorrect iTunes settings in the system.
To resolve this error follow the steps mentioned below:
1) Download the latest version from the Apple official website
2) Install the update in the Mac operating system
3) Check the software security of the current operating system
4) Uninstall the software causing the error in the system
5) Plugin the iOS device, keyboard, and mouse to the computer
6) Turn off and on the device after the settings are applied
7) Update and restore the iOS device for the iTunes software
