iTunesMobileDevice.dll Not Found

[seanmcnally98]

I've checked, and C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\iTunesMobileDevice.dll does, in fact, exist. I've installed iTunes 12.1.1, uninstalled all other iTunes and Apple Device instances, but still, I'm getting this error:

Unhandled Exception: System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'iTunesMobileDevice.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E) at MK.MobileDevice.Lite.MobileDevice.AMDeviceNotificationSubscribe(ITMDDeviceNotificationCallback callback, UInt32 unused1, UInt32 unused2, UInt32 unused3, Void*& am_device_notification_ptr) at MK.MobileDevice.Lite.iOSDeviceMK.doConstruction() at iPhoneMediaTransfer.Program.Main(String[] args)

Any ideas? Thanks!

EDIT: I thought this may be a x64 vs x86 issue, so I tried uninstalling everything again, and just installing the x86 version of iTunes...nope, it won't let you. The installer kicks you out for being a 64-bit machine. Then I tried extracting the .exe and just installing AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi...same issue.

Unpack the iTunesMobileDevice.dll from the x86 setup and put it in the iPhoneMediaTransfer folder. Then install the x64 version of Mobile Device Support. That could work.

The .exe for the x86 installer unpacks to a bunch of .msi files, which as far as I can tell can't be directly unpacked

EDIT Sorry, I was wrong. You actually CAN unpack them with 7zip. But even so, I tried placing it in iPhoneMediaTransfer-v1.1\iPhoneMediaTransfer, and also in iPhoneMediaTransfer-v1.1\iPhoneMediaTransfer\src\iPhoneMediaTransfer, and also in iPhoneMediaTransfer-v1.1\iPhoneMediaTransfer\src\iPhoneMediaTransfer\bin\x86\Release...none worked.

Just in case you still have this issue, or someone else runs into it, try adding both folders ("Application Support" and "Mobile Device Support") to the PATH environment variable.
