Can i switch back to a different version of itunes that's not 8.0?

so i just updated to the new version 8.0 today, and i really dont like it. and from what i hear, it can cause a lot of problems. is there any way i can go back to the former version without losing my entire library?

Did you uninstall the existing version and then restart before you installed the new version?

  • HT1947 Can I go back to an older version of iTunes that'll support both my iPhone 4S w/iOS6 and my MacBook running Leapord 10.5.8?

    Can I go back to an older version of iTunes that'll support both my iPhone 4S w/iOS6 and my 2009 MacBook running Leapord 10.5.8? I simply want everything to work the way it had been forever until recently. However, I can't imagine Apple would intentionally make their own products obsolete by rendering them useless through a software "upgrade."  My MacBook is only 3 yrs old so I feel like I am simply missing 1 piece to this puzzle in order for things to start working again. I have my MacBook, iPod and iPhone 4S all set up to install updates automatically so if I need to uninstall certain updates and revert back to ones that work will that even be an option?  Thanks

    The only version of iTunes which will support both is version 10.6.3.

  • How can I revert back to an earlier version of Itunes?

    I installed the newest version and it took EVERYTHING off my hard drive. A lot of it is crap I don't want on there. Can I revert back to an earlier version of Itunes that only has whats on my Ipod? I tried system restore and had no luck. Thanks

    If your disk was wiped, presumable you will not need to worry about the library as a new blank library will be created.

  • I download the recent ios for iphone 4 and connected to my pc and it wont connect to itunes. What is the lastest version of itunes that DOES NOT support ios 7?

    i download the recent ios for iphone 4. i connected iphone 4 to my pc and it wont connect to itunes. What is the lastest version of itunes that DOES NOT support the lastest version of ios?

    Yes, due to Incomplete Software Update on your iPhone your Device is now in Recovery Mode and you cannot take a Backup now. But if you have taken a backup earlier then you can Restore that backup on your iPhone after you Reset your iPhone to Factory Settings.

  • Cannot use email program in ANGEL a CMS program. Can I switch back to the older version o Firefox?

    I teach with a CMS program called ANGEL which is produced by BlackBoard. When I try to email students using ANGEL email I get an error message about script
    Warning Unresponsive script:
    A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
    Script: https://angel.msu.edu/jscript/yahoo/utilities/utilities.js:9. Then if I click continue, it just does nothing, just goes into holding pattern. If I click stop script, it says the message was sent, but it doesn't actually send. I use a mac.
    I desparately need to use this program. Can I please go back to the older version of Firefox. I believe the problem is with ANGEL, but I have no choice in that as the university sponsors it. Please Help!

    You can install the portable Firefox 3.6.x version to access websites that do not work with Firefox 5+.

  • Can I roll back to a previous version of iTunes?

    I just downloaded all my updates, one of which updated my iTunes, and now it is not working properly. Mine too is skipping during certain songs in my library. Also, if I just close the window, and come back to it later the screen has fragmented, and looks like white noise with the impression of several different windows on its face. This seems like some kind of conflict. I downloaded the package containing 6.0.5 intending to install it, and remove the new version, but it will not let me install it. Please help

  • Can i go back to an older version of itunes?

    I recently upgraded to iTunes 6 and I HATE it. It freezes a lot and at first, the preferences option under the edit menu was not even there and now it will not let me click on any of the tabs at the top. It only shows the "general" options. I had no problems with my earlier version of iTunes and it's not my computer because I have no problems with any other programs.Is there any way I can downgrade and go back to the last version? Or what can I do to fix iTunes 6 now that I'm stuck with it? I'd appreciate any help because there doesn't seem to be any way to contact Apple to ask them. I am not impressed with their "support" website. Thanks. -Carly

    hmmm. this sort of thing is sometimes caused by a corrupt itunes preferences file. let's see if we can fix this by rebuilding that file. try using the instructions on rebuilding a preferences file in this user tip:

  • I just updated to itunes 11 on a windows,can i go back to an earlier version of itunes?

    i just updated to the new version, itunes 11 , and i really hate it im on a windows and i tried uninstalling itunes 11 and reinstalling an older version but it doesn't open after downloaded so i had to download itunes 11 again any help or advice ?? thanks !!

    Previous versions of iTunes won't use the  iTunes library (newer version) file
    Fortunately, iTunes makes backup copies of its library,
    So when you reinstall, you have to delete (or rename just in case) library file, you have to copy (and rename) one the backups (usually the most recent one) to take its place
    the library file is called         >>         iTunes Library (extension itl)
    and should be in  the          >>          Desktop\Libraries\Music\iTunes\           folder
    the backups should be in the    >>     Desktop\Libraries\Music\iTunes\Previous iTunes Library\        folder
    that should make iTunes work, wiith most or all of your library intact

  • Other versions of itunes that do not disable CD/DVD drive on VISTA PC?

    Anyone know if there is a previous itunes version on the Apple site that does not have the CD-disable problem when you install? I'd like to try it. Thanks!

    The daemon tools are not a fix-all for this problem. I tried installing them, and all seemed to work fine until re-boot... then no more CD/DVD drive (again).

  • How can I revert back to my old version of itunes without deleting my data?

    Ever sence I upgrated to the 10.6.7.1, I can't go into the store! I literally tried everything. So only choice is to delete the new itunes and revert back to the 10.4 version. But I don't want to risk getting all my music,movies,pictures,tv shows, pretty much everything get deleted off my ipod. I heard about backing up my files. Someone, anybody, PLEASE help, I'm this close to smashing my computer to pieces if I don't get an answer or a solution.

    To clarify things,  if you have LifeCycleManager also called LCM and use versioning, you can revert changes.
    Howver,  if you edit a report in a higher patch level then go back to a previous patch level you may face unexpected behavior like sudden crash, document corruption that in the worst cases manifests after a long time.
    Therefore the best practices are to use LCM and/or perform systematic backups plus exceptional backups when major changes occur.

  • Can you share libraries between two different version of iTunes?

    My school recently got MacBook Pro's for everyone, and we are allowed to put our music on them to listen to during study hall. I was just trying to transfer my iTunes library on my Windows computer over to my MacBook, and the home sharing doesn't show that they're on the same network. They're using the same wi-fi and I used the same account on both, but the Windows is on iTunes 11 and my MacBook is on iTunes 10. I can't download 11 on to my MacBook without a tech at the school's authorization, so I'm stuck with 10 on that one and 11 on this. Is that why the home sharing won't work? If so, there isn't anyway I can revert this one back to 10, is there?

    Yes,
    on the device login using the other persons account and go to app store. Check for apps not yet downloaded onto this device and you will see what you are missing from the other account. You can then download it onto that device and use it.
    You then go to settings and store and go back to your own account. When you come to updates though, the apps bought using the other account will not update unless you login using the others persons apple ID or at least know their password.
    My wife and I have the same apps distributed across two iphones and an ipad using a mixture of either's apple IDs.

  • How do I go back to an older version of iTunes?

    I just updated my iTunes to 11 and definitely don't like it. How can I go back to the last version of iTunes?

    What do you mean you can't? You certainly can and people that didn't care for the new iTunes 11 have already went back to the 10.7 version. Just search on these boards on how to go about it.
