I can't download the latest itunes (I need to for my phone) because it says I need an updated OS version, but my computer says everything is up to date. Any help?

First you need to install Mac OS 10.6. To do this you have to buy the OS disk. (This is a whole different OS, not an update of 10.5.) Order it here:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
You may be able to install an even newer OS, but you have to get 10.6 first.
Please look at Apple Menu / About This Mac / More Info... and check under Hardware Overview for the Model Identifier of your Macbook. That will tell us whaat is the highest OS you can install.

  • Can't download the latest iTunes. A window pops up... The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs. No iTunes now.

    Now, iTunes won't launch and can't be updated. Please help.
    If I have lost my music collection I will be switching platforms ASAP. It is insane that Apple has updates seemingly every day for their products.

    I was in your same situation with 14 downloads and 14 attempts. 
    You have to make sure that your Mac is booting into 64 bit mode.  You can make sure of this by going into System Preferences and scrolling down to 'Software' and making sure that you are booding with 64 bit Kexts. 
    If not, restart while holding the 6 and 4 keys down until you see the spinning gear wheel and try installng again. 
    BUT, what I also did was to go into Applications, click on the Lion installer, Get Info, and give yourself custom priviliges to Read And Write. 
    I did this simultaneously, and I don't know what function did it, but it worked for me, with no further downloads of the installer. 
    Good luck!

  • Any ideas on why I can't download the latest itunes?

    I am trying to download the latest iTunes (10.2.1) to my PC, but I'm running into all sorts of trouble. OS is Windows 7. When I first tried downloading it, I got the following message:
    C:\Users\Jelli\Downloads\iTunes64Setup(1).exe.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read.
    Try again later, or contact the server administrator.
    I tried it a few times, and I was finally able to download the default version, which I am pretty sure is the 32-bit. When I go to install, I get this message:
    C:\Users\Jelli\Downloads\iTunes64setup.exe is not a validWin32 application.
    This iTunes installer is intended for 32-bit versions ofWindows. Please download and install the 64-bit iTunes installer instead.
    So, I went and downloaded the 64-bit version, and when I went to install, got this error:
    C:\Users\Jelli\Downloads\iTunes64setup.exe is not a validWin32 application.
    I can't understand what is going. I was able to download it onto my husband's computer a few days ago. I have never downloaded/installed iTunes on my computer before, nor have I had any problems downloading anything else.
    I am fairly amateur when it comes to computers, but most of the time I can figure things out, and I can follow steps just fine. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    If the OP has this much RAM in their iMac, certain this Mac can run Mountain Lion.
    The reason it might not be installing is that 15 GBs of RAM.
    Your iMac should have (4) equal sized, 4 GB sticks of RAM for a total of 16 GBs.l
    If your iMac is only reporting that there is only 15 GBs of RAM, you have a RAM stick that is either not seated in its slot properly or is defective/going bad.
    This maybe the reason that it won't download it.
    Also could be you are running out of free space on your HD.
    You need, at least 15-20 % or greater free space left on your HD.

  • Can't download the latest itunes update. Can someone help me?

    I'm trying to download the latest itunes 11.1.4 but when it gets to the part of the download "Starting services" I get a message saying, "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." The only options they give me are to Abort, Retry, and Ignore. Now I've pressed Retry and Ignore but the same message will just pop back up. When I hit Abort it ask me if I want to cancel the Itunes update which closes the update process all togther.Since I wasn't able to complete the latest itunes update I am unable to open itunes on my compute. I need help...How am I suppose to verify whatever they want me to verify?

    My issue was solved. This person's solution solved my issue https://discussions.apple.com/message/24604556#24604556

  • I can't download the latest itune 10.5, it keeps saying the bonjour can not be removed... HELP ME!!!!

    I am trying to upload the latest version of itunes 10.5 so that I can set up my new iPhone 4s and it keeps saying that the bonjour can not be removed.
    Please help me I have been trying to tackle this for the last 4 hours!!!

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Can't download the latest Itunes

    I am trying to get the latest version of itunes but it keeps giving me an error message that says the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
    HELP!

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • I can't download the latest iTunes version

    The message says the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable?

    Which particular .msi file (or files) does the message (or messages) go on to say cannot be found? (Several different .msi files might be mentioned in this context: itunes.msi, bonjour.msi, AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi, etc.)

  • Where can I download the latest Itunes 7.7?

    I really dont need 8 but I would like to sync my phone. Rather revert back to 7.7

    I actually found the link...
    http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net/content.info.apple.com/iTunes7/Win/061-5 127.20080731Mlo9i/iTunes64Setup.exe
    So it ****** me off that support couldn't just provide that link in the first place instead of wasting my time saying that 7.7 is no longer available on the website
    After all that, I still have the same issue with the driver failing. I have no choice now but to reinstall Vista. That's what I get for updating to something I didn't need

    Are all songs checked in your playlist?

  • HT4235 I just bought a new Ipod Nano and cannot get it to sync with my computer. I downloaded the latest Itunes before I started but it doesn't sync. The diagnostic test says that my Ipod isn't detected. What can I check?

    I cant get my Nano to sync to my computer. It is new and and I downloaded the latest Itunes last week. I hit sync and it makes a sound within a second and then says it is done. What can I check?

  • TS1368 I downloaded the latest ITunes update, 10.6 I think. I can still sync my Ipod, but I can no longer access the Itunes Store.  No error message, it just keeps "accessing" but nothing shows up.  I've restarted my computer twice.

    I downloaded the latest Itunes update, 10.6 I think. I can still sync my Ipod, but now I can't access the Itunes Store.  There's no error message, it just keeps "accessing" but never completes.  How can I fix this?

    Ok... I just tried connecting my iPod directly to a USB port on the computer rather than via the USB hub I was using and everything is fine. Odd, but I'm happy now.
    Thanks,
    Evan

    You can use the latest iTunes (11.1.3) on 10.6.8 - if Software Update doesn't provide it (which it should) then you can download it from http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
