How to download iTunes 5.0.1 before installing 5.0.0?

Hello. A few days ago I downloaded iTunes 5.0.0 using System Preferences > Software Update. I did not install the program until some stability issues were resolved. Today I used Software Update to see if there was a new version, and there it was version 5.0.1. But not I cannot download it because software update says somethiing like "program downloaded, not installed". So, do I have to install version 5.0.0 to be able to download version 5.0.1? Is there a way to bypass this and download version 5.0.1? I don't want to install 5.0.1 right now, as I see there are some stability issues not resolved yet, but would like to download this version just in case.
Another related question: If I download a program directly from Apple's website without going via the Software Update, is there going to be a conflict? Like for example, Software Updte not detecting that I have downloaded or installed the program?
Thanks in advance for your help.

RicMoli hello,
this link here will give you full instructions on how to install iTunes... you do not have to do it straight away... use the download link for iTunes 5.0.1 but do not install... when you do use the instructions and you should be okay...
If software update wants to update iTunes untick the box when given the option to update now
tip: have a backup copy of your iTunes Library file at all times
take care ... TP

  • How to download iTunes iOS

    How to download iTunes IOS latest version?

    If you mean update to the current iOS version on your iPad, then if it's already on iOS 5+ as your tagline suggests then you should have a Settings > General > Software Update option on it for direct update.
    Or you can update via your computer's iTunes (you will need the current version of iTunes installed on your computer). To update, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option (you should do this even if updating directly on the iPad). You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad via File > Devices > Back Up.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand sidebar (you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button.
    You can only update a device to the highest iOS version that it supports, which for a first gen iPad is IOS 5.1.1, and for other iPads is iOS 7.1

    I don't think this will fix your problem with restoring your iPhone 4 though. That is likely a seperate issue.
    but i can do it with any windows?
    Yes, you can theoretically restore your iPhone with any computer running the most current version of iTunes (10.6.3) unless there is some other issue.
    I get error code(21)
    According to this support article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error21:
    "These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service."
    Do you run any anti-virus or third-party firewalls on your computer? Try disabling them and trying the restore process again. It may be possible that one of these security applications is interfering with the iPhone's ability to authenticate with Apple's servers.

  • I download itunes it says its successfully installed. then when i try to open it it says "apple application support not found" PLEASE HELP!!

    I download itunes it says its successfully installed but then when i try to open it is says "Apple Application Support not found"

    Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • How to download itunes for windows 7

    how to download itunes

    Direct links to the installers:
    iTunes 12.1.2.27  (64-bit) - iTunes6464Setup.exe
    iTunes 12.1.2.27 (64-bit "for older video cards") - itunes64setup.exe
    The second of these - which is actually the 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer - should be used if you get a warning about video card incompatibility when you install the standard 64-bit version, but also may resolve issues with playback, QuickTime integration, and problems with third-party applications (including Outlook).
