Cannot get rid of old itunes and cannot install new one!
I just got a new nano today, so i tried to update my old itunes account to the version 7.02. For some odd reason,however, my old version of itunes that was compatible with the mini cannot be uninstalled. Therefore, I cannot install the new version of itunes. What do I do???

For some odd reason,however, my old version of itunes that was compatible with the mini cannot be uninstalled.
do you get an error message if you try to uninstall itunes from Add/Remove programs? if so, what does it say? (include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

Plug my iPod into computer and iTunes told to uninstall mobile device support and iTunes, I did and as I try to reinstall iTunes, it told me my computer cannot get rid of old iTunes and to contact technical support. My computer is hp windows and my iPod touch is a 3rd generation I believe.
(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 went to upgrade itunes and when it finally downloaded, i got the following message: There is a problem with this windows installer. A program required for this install to complete could not be run.
I was advised to unistall the old itune, which i did and then loaded the latest itune 10.5 i think. It dowloaded fine to a point and before finishing, it came up with the same message.
Is the problem with the itune installer or my windows installer on my laptop?Repair your Apple software update.
Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install
If you don't find ASU, go to Control Panel:
START/CONTROL PANEL/Programs n Features/highlight ASU and click REPAIR, -
1800 help please.. How can you delete a persons old e address , even deleting old contact and restarting does not stop the defunct address from showing up and showing up first
Can you help?The only way that I currently know of that you can use to remove old / invalid email addresses is to reset the iPad back to factory defaults - which is somewhat extreme, and I assume that you don't won't to do that. You could try leaving feedback for Apple and maybe in a future update we'll be able to edit the list : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

I uploaded my photos to my computer. I now have all my albums and photo library on my phone. I cannot get the off my phone and cannot take pictures on my camera.
Connect your phone back and resync except this time uncheck all the albums from itunes when you sync. This will take all the albums off your phone and clear up space on your phone.

How to get rid of old documents and emails?
hi,
how do i get rid of old documents and emails from my computer? i know they are there because when i type something in my search bar, i get documents and emails i got years ago. what do i do to get rid of these things?
thank you,
yellow_lamp
what i meant to say, if i didn't say it clear enough, was how do i get rid of old documents and emails that are not currently in my document folder or in my email inbox.Select the email/s you want to get rid of and then select delete. When all the emails are deleted, select your Trash mailbox, select all the emails and then select delete.
Documents you can drag to the trash (lower right side of Dock). Then empty the trash.
Then stop down to your local bookstore and get some books on Mac OS X. -
I have an old iphone and have a new one as well. I would like to use my old on as an ipod but itunes not longer recognizes it. Any ideas? I have been using it for a month with no problems until tonight. I restarted my computer..still no fix.
Looks like its fixed. I am syncing it now. A lot of the answers are for the new iphone so i had to mess with a bunch of settings as well. My old phone is now an 8 gig ipod. the books app no longer works and that *****.....but better than nothing...

I created a new library so I can use it for just my music, but now my ipod will only sync to my old library and not the new one I created, even though I'm in the new library when I open itunes. Any solutions?
The point is that there are four i product users for one computer in my house, and not everyone wants the same music on their device. Like I said before, the ipod is not syncing to the new library even though I plug it in when the new itunes library is pulled up. It keeps syncing to the old library...

I shall open delete my present account with iTunes and open a new one - but I do not have the password. How can I then delete the present account??
Since you can't delete Apple IDs and having multiple Apple IDs can cause confusion, what you may want to do is rename your existing Apple ID to the new email (desired Apple ID). That would in effect do what you want, get rid of the old and give you the new.
See "Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID"

i returned my old ipod and ordered a new one a few days ago and i was never given a tracking number for the new one that is being shipped
Go to the Apple Store webpage and in the upper right go to Account and select Track an Order. There you will find the status of your order. You only get a tracking order when the items ships.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you still need to change the country for your iTunes Store account. Please review the attached article for information and instruction on how to do so.

So now a $500 Dell has Firewire, but a $1300 Mac doesn't? Is this true?
With Apple dropping more features from their laptops, I decided to check out the Dell site out of curiosity. I can't believe the features you can get for as little as $500 dollars. Here is a list of ports on a base $500 Dell (as compared to a $1200 M
