iTunes Installation Error - error status 1603
I just got a new phone, and I was having a problem getting iTunes to recognize it. I was able to sync my old phone and my iPad, but not my new phone. One of the suggestions was to uninstall iTunes and reinstall it -- so I uninstalled it, but now I cannot reinstall it. I downloaded the latest version of iTunes, and when I run the install it fails to install and exits with an "installation error."
When I look in the event logs, I see:
Windows Installer installed the product. Product Name: iTunes. Product Version: 12.6.1.25. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Apple Inc.. Installation success or error status: 1603.
I have tried cleaning up all the loose directories, removing all the other Apple software (except iCloud Settings), restarting a number of times -- still no joy.
Any thoughts on this?
