Can I download itunes with a Windows 8.1 operating system?

how can I download itunes for windows 8.1 operating system?

You can add a tile for iTunes to the start screen in Win 8.1 but it will still (and I suspect will for the indefinite future) run as a desktop application.  Metro apps are more like those on smartphones ... all Microsoft's major software products (Office, Visio, etc.) all run on the desktop even though the latest releases post-date Windows 8.
I can't see any motivation for Apple to change iTunes for as long as Microsoft continue to have desktop support in Windows (which, unless they want to alienate all their enterprise customers, they must do for at least the next decade).  Likewise support for Windows RT (which I suspect is dying, given that MS didn't release a Surface 3 in parallel with the Pro 3) or Windows Phone is going to be very low on Apple's priority list given the direct competition with iOS devices.

    If you want to add songs from iTunes to the iPod, plug it into the computer, select the iPod in iTunes and click the tabs across top to select what you want on the iPod.

    I can't download itunes on my windows 7 laptop (it used to be installed but seems to have disappeared).
    An error message appears near the end of the (ultimately failed) install attempt saying something like 'apple mobile device does not have the right privileges'

    until the last programme finishes downloading then it won't open the file because it can't be found.
    Which particular .msi file does the message go on to say cannot be found? (Several different .msi files can be mentioned in this context: itunes.msi, bonjour.msi, AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi, etc.)

    Hi there AAA87,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like there’s an issue downloading iTunes on your PC, even after trying some recommended troubleshooting suggestions. I’m not sure which suggestions you’ve tried, so if you haven’t already, try the troubleshooting suggestions in the article linked below.

    I can't download itunes to my windows 7 computer. It gives me a error 0x800736fd.

    Don't know about that error but have you tried:
    Make sure iTunes is uninstalled, restart your computer, redownload and install iTunes (make sure you download the right one. If you have a 64-bit Windows7 then download the iTunes 64bit version).
    Hopefully this works for you. If not then somebody in this forum should know the answer.

  • How can i download Itunes on my Windows 8 computer?

    I cant figure out how to download Itunes on my Windows 8 computer can someone help me? I have tried numerous times and nothing pops up or instals

    Sorry but I don't understand your question. If you want to install iTunes on your computer, just download iTunes from the iTunes tab above and install it.
    I think you'll probably need to post back and clarify where it is that you are running into difficulties before anyone can offer any useful advice.
    Regards.

  • TS3212 How can I download itunes with Windows 8?

    Having trouble downloading itunes onto my laptop.  I have Windows 8 and it is not letting me download onto my laptop.  Whgat should I do?

    At the very end, I get the message that I don't have "Apple Support Application".
    With the Error 2, 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/download.htm
    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 instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • TS1717 How can I download iTunes to my Windows 7 computer?

    When I tried to install iTunes to my Toshiba AllinOne DX735 computer with Windows 7 I got a message on my computer saying an earlier version of iTunes was installed than the one required by my Windows 7 system.
    How can I install the correct version of iTunes on my computer? I do have an iPod 5 and need to have it.
    Thanks for any help.

    You cannot downlaod only part of iTunes.
    You mean you have downlaoded and installed and you can run iTunes but you can only see Music at the top left of iTunes.
    Click the little arrow at top left then Show menu.

  • CAN'T INSTALL ITUNES ON MY WINDOWS VISTA 64-BIT SYSTEM

    Hey guys,
    I'm having a hard time installing Itunes on my 64-bit Windows Vista system. Everytime I think it's about to finish installing, it shows this message.
    Someone, please help me! I haven't had music on my iPhone for 4 weeks now!

    Not Windows RT then .  When you say "I've tried both" do you mean the 32- and 64-bit installers for Windows?  In the first instance you should go to http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ - this should detect the version of Windows you are running and offer the correct installer.  It'll look like this:
    Click on Download Now - this will download the correct installer for you to run and install iTunes.
    There is, however, some anecdotal evidence that the scripts on the Apple site that are supposed to detect the version of Windows you are running may fail for some users - jumping straight to the "Thank you for downloading ..." page with the installer not having been downloaded.  As an alternative, you can go directly to the relevant downloads:
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe
    of which you'll need the second one.  See turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for more details if you're still having problems with installation; you may also need to consult HP's helpdesk as the error message you report may be symptomatic of a Windows issue, not an iTunes one.
