I just noticed I never wrote this up. The bummer is I have lost the information on the error and the fix. I’ll try to muddle through anyhow :).
This was the iTunes update for the iPad. Well no matter how I tried to install it, it kept failing.
I googled it a million different ways, and though there were a lot of hits on “iTunes update failed to install”, nothing really matched my syptoms, nor did any of the fixes people recommended fix my problem.
I think what I ended up doing was going to Apple’s main site and just downloading the regular download of iTunes/Quicktime, and running that.
I never did find out what the problem was, however I should note this is the second time I have had it. I don’t remember how I got out of it the first time either.
But I did want to post this anyhow, just to add it to the pile of hits to validate that yes, there’s something wrong here.
[Update] I did find the error description, “errors occurred while installing the updates. if the problem persists, choose Tools > download only and try installing manually”.
