5.1 speakers won't work with iTunes

I've got 5.1 speakers connected to my PC, but playback in iTunes only comes through the front left and right speakers. Does anyone know how I can resolve this? Thanks.

Go to the Control Panel, Sounds and Audio Devices.
At the bottom is "Speaker Settings"
Click "Advanced"
CHange "Speaker setup" to 5.1 surround

New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3 says it needs 11.1 but I cannot load that on my macbook using OSX 10.5.8 any way around this?

New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3, says it needs 11.1 or newer but I cannot load that onto my MacBook running on OSX 10.5.8 - is there anyway around this?

No. If your MacBook has an Intel processor you can update to OSX 10.6.8 and then install the latest iTunes.
A 5G iPod with iOS 7 requires that if you have a Mac you have OSX 10.6.8 or later.
You can get 10.6.8 here:

My new iPod won't work with iTunes 6 but...

Is it safe to get iTunes 7 yet?
Because I tried it before but it made the music dodgy.
So I eventually got 6 back, but it won't work with my new iPod.
Help?

I also had problems with iTunes 7 when it first came out, but 7.0.2 is working for me and seems to have fixed a lot of the problems. It's worth a try if you need iTunes 7 for your new iPod.

Surround Sound speakers don't work with ITUNES 7

My surround sound speakers have worked with my computer since I got them and still are working. However, when I upgraded to ITUNEs 7 suddenly only the front speakers work, this only happens on ITUNEs and nothing else. What is going on and how can I fix it?

I have surround sound speakers and mine are working fine with iTunes 7. Now, I don't want to state the obvious, but my surround sound speakers have a bass box attached and the leads go into the back and sometimes they come loose. You've probably already checked this but I thought it worth a a mention.

WHAT HAS APPLE DONE? ipod won't work with itunes 9.0

I have an 80GB iPod, (MB147LL) when trying to sync with iTunes 9.0 the iPod gets corrupted. I have the luxury of having more than 1 type of Apple computer at home. All the computers that have been updated to iTunes 9.0 will corrupt the ipod all with itunes 8.2.1 will sync just fine. All systems are running 10.5.8 OSX. What is going on? I have several iPods and they all act the same. Surely this is not just a phenomena at my house.

I have solved the problem. You need to re-instore iTunes 8.21 by following these instructions:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-10371925-263.html?tag=nl.e780
Would recommend backing every stage up though just in case.
Now plug the iPod into the computer. This is what happened. It still would not sync but said 'do not disconnect'. The iPod did this time show up on the desktop so I ejected it that way. Closed iTunes down and unplugged the iPod. Reconnected it to the computer. Opened iTunes. This time it synced. I let it finish syncing. But it still said do not disconnect. So I looked in iTunes and saw it was ticked for 'enable disk use'. Undid that and everything works just fine.

New Shuffle won't work with itunes, but can't download newest version.

I just got a new shuffle and when I plug it into my computer it tells me I need Itunes version 10. When I try to install Itunes version 10 it says 'Couldn't open "Install iTunes.pkg". This package type requires Mac OS X 10.5'. What do I need to do to get everything working?

Yeah, I just bought an iPod Shuffle and have run into this same issue. I don't want to upgrade to iTunes 10 because I did so on my work computer and am dealing with a headache of an issue with it (sort of off-topic, but it's doing that rapid flashing thing when loading in a CD, ultimately not recognizing it or letting me download the songs, unless I turn off the feature that downloads the song titles automatically, which is fairly important to me). I did some searching around here and found it's a common issue with no solution at the moment. I definitely don't want to deal with that on my personal computer, so I've stuck with iTunes 9. But now that means I can't use the Shuffle I just purchased. How frustrating. Any solution?

Remote app on iPad won't work with iTunes on iMac

I own two computers, a Late 2012 27inch iMac with i5, 16GB, Fusion drive and a 2014 MacBookPro Retina 13inch, both are running Yosemite, iTunes 12.0.1 and my iPad 4 is running iOS 8.0.2.
When I set up to control my iMac with wifi and my iPad 4, the remote software connects and I have the music library icon that shows up, but it doesn't actually run to control iTunes like it's supposed to do. When I use my MacBookPro, it works perfectly without any problem.
Any suggestions? I really want to use my iMac as my music server since it's a stationary system that placed next to my stereo system, but what should I try to make this work. I've used several different routers Apple and Non-Apple and the results are identical. The MacBookPro works great and the iMac doesn't. I've checked all of the settings and can't find anything different between the two computers.
Any help would be great.

OK.
As Demo indicated, IDs unfortunately can not be combined.
Decide which one you want to be "primary" and routinely remain logged on to that one on both the iPad and the computer. That way, all new purchases will be on the primary and you won't be making the problem any worse.
Change the password on one of the IDs so that both IDs use the same password.
The difficulty is in app updates. Both your iPad and iTunes on your computer will tell you that updates are available and it's possible to update them using either device (and a sync will update the other device). However, it's a nuisance updating from iTunes because you most log out and back in again, get the update, and when finished log out and back in again to get back on your primary.
Remember that the iPad is always logged in to the primary ID. When the iPad tells you that updates are available, you either "select all" or choose one at a time for updating. If you "select all," only those associated with the primary ID will be updated but sometimes you're lucky and that's everything. The apps on the secondary ID will not have been updated and they should subsequently be selected one at a time for updating. You will NOT need to log out and back in again! All that will be necessary is to enter the password.
If any of the above did not make sense, post back and I'll explain.

EZ vinyl converter won't work with iTunes 10

I have just updated iTunes to iTunes 10. Now I cannot get EZ vinyl converter to open. On trying to open it I keep getting the message "this programme requires you to have apples iTunes installed..."! Updating to the newest version of ez vinyl converter has not made any difference. EZ vinyl converter has been working fine for me for years but I still have a lot of vinyl I want to convert. Help!! Is it possible to "downdate" back to iTunes 9 which worked OK?

Mixmeister no help but ION support came up with (simple) answer. Seems problem was with upgrade to i-Tunes 10. Control panel ; programmes ; change i-tunes ; Repair i-Tunes. Worked a treat, no further problems. Thanks for your help. Cheers.

IPOD 3rd Gen. Won't work with ITUNES 7?

That's about it. Since I updated ITUNES my 3rd generation (20 GB) ipod won't respond (ITUNES says that I have to update it, won't let me)
Suggestions?

Hello,
Are you syncing with your PowerBook running 10.5.8?
You can't have the lastest version of iTunes installed as the lastest version of Itunes requires Mac OS X 10.6.8 and above
Which version of iTunes have you installed? Go to iTines top left and then about iTunes.

IPod won't work with iTunes

I just got a new laptop and I downloaded iTunes onto it. When I plugged in my iPod and tried to run it on iTunes, iTunes will only allow me to completely erase my iPod. How can I put all the music and playlists onto my new iTunes without erasing my iPod?

OK. That makes sense.
Be grateful that the "sync" didn't work. That also would have erased the iPod because your library is empty!
You need to first recover the library from your old computer and put on the new one. Go to the old computer, do a backup:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302392
Then, take that backuup and restore it to the new computer.
Next, you want to do the "5 Rs" to get the iPod up to snuff:
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
Finally, sync the iPod to transfer the music, videos, etc. to the iPod.

Podcast app doesn't work with iTunes this made me want back to 5.1.1

Apple may want to make podcast more popout. they made a NEW app "podcasts"
but I start to hate apple to do this just like the iOS 6 maps.
the new Podcasts app is desinged to be work alone (without iTunes)
it can download subscribe find, ok that's cool but it just won't work with iTunes. maybe apple have data shows more people are iDevice centered.
But I'm an iTunes centered user. I use iTunes to search subscribe download and DELETE Podcast that I've watched. and I LOVE THIS WAY! I DON"T WANT MY PHONE TO Manage or store podcasts!
back to iOS 5. every moming, I sync my iPhone with my iTunes, 1 new unplayed podcasts from every show was synced to my iPhone. and I play them on the way to my company.
at night I watch some other shows on my mac. them sync with iPhone. all played podcasts will not remain on iPhone, and marked as played in iTunes and ready to be deleted. iTunes only keep 4 episodes. all things is automatic. but iOS 6 Changes everything. It won't works with iTunes, and music can't play podcasts anymore. I have to Manually subscribe on iPhone again! and Manualy delete on iPhone and Manualy delete on iTunes.
THIS IS TOTOALLY Unacceptable... for me. My phone or iPad have very limited spaces, and 3G data plan.
Use iTunes means, no 3G needed, download only once!
Use Podcast app and sync over iCould means 3G data and download as the same number as yours devices. for me I have to download a same show for 3 times.
I Hope there is some way that can make the old music app back.

I agree, i tried to do what i always do at my office today on my ipod touch, connect to the wifi at the end of the day to download new podcast episodes for my subway ride home, and instead, iTunes with the ios6 update installed yesterday won't let me do that, it tells me i need the new Podcasts app, fine, i go install it, and then when i go back to music, it tells me my podcasts are moved, i go to the new app, so over i go. The new app is slow, crashes twice trying to get into it, i can't see any way to make a playlist, i managed to download some new episodes, but can't see how to make a playlist still. I found out how to delete it (and doing so brought back Podcasts and my podcast playlist to the music app, huzzah!!)
The Podcasts app is not the quality i want from Apple. I like my ipod, i really do, but it seems Apple is convinced that whenever they make a change they think will make things better, they delete old ways of doing things that work for us, the real people in the world using their devices. I like the notion of a stand alone app for finding and downloading podcasts, but why does that necessitate removing them from the music app to play since primarily i download all my new podcasts at night, listen to some on my computer while working at home, put them in an itunes playlist in the order i want to listen to them, then sync each morning with my PC to have whatever i haven't listened to in a playlist so it can play all day at work while i'm there.
Hopefully Apple can learn from this and the ongoing Maps debacle to maybe not be so quick to tell their users how we have to use the devices, and instead spend some time listening to how we use the devices to make our experience better rather than enforcing how they want it used on us.

My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes. I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes. There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE. How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

It says it cannot removed the older version of iTunes.

My speakers won't work on my new computer with a Soundblaster live! 24

When I was in college, I bought a Gateway computer that came with with Boston Acoustics speaker model BA735.
Recently, I bought a new Dell computer with the Soundblaster Li've! 24 bit and my speakers won't work. I have an old set at my house that works fine, so I know the card isn't broken, but I'd prefer to use my own speakers.
I don't know if I have to download drivers or change settings or what, but this is a pain. I have found some of the same problems posted, but they are usually involving a gateway computer, so I don't know if I can download gateway drivers for my Dell computer, I'm not very good when it comes to these things. Any help you can give me I'd appreciate.

HI,
In most cases this is about the Internet Speed or the portion of it your computer gets that iChat can see at the moment it tests the speed during it's launch process.
That is to say that as you start up ichat it tests the speed it can see.
this can be effected by other computer doing a download and "taking" more of the Bandwidth or rather leaving a smaller amount for your Mac.
The same is true if your computer is already doing a download or using the Internet heavily.
Of course at that moment your ISP could also have cut the speed you get.
If you launch iChat and go to the Video Menu > Connection Doctor what does the Capabilities tab say ?
This may have red crosses against some items.
Also check iChat Menu > Preferences > Video Section > Bandwidth Limit
This should not be set at 100kbps fro Video chats.
Have you tried restarting the computer ?
