dkreifus Posted January 12, 2005 Posted January 12, 2005 I have been attempting to install iTunes 4.7.1 silently.I always get the first screen of the setup, that has you push Next to start the install, then nothing happens.I've checked the switches for the exe and I get this:Command Line Parameters:/L language ID/S Hide intializaation dialog. For silent mode use: /S /v /qn/V parameters to MsiExec.exe/UA<url to InstMsiA.exe>/UW<url to InstMsiW.exe>/UM<url to msi package>I tried the first 4 different switches, with no luck.I found the MSI from the installation files, but I can't seem to get that running either:Windows ® Installer.
