Because I can't get itunes 8 I can't update my iphone....
Sorry ol' chap; the short answer is NO.
You need Panther 10.3.9 or later:
500 MHz G3 processor or better
QT 6.5.2 or later

Missing All Apps in iTunes AND can't update iphone software
APP PROBLEM- just happened today
There are zero apps showing in my app folder all of the sudden. My phone shows that 77 updates are available, and yet, not a single app shows up in the apps folder itself. When I click "check for updates" in the app folder, again nothing.
IPHONE SOFTWARE PROBLEM- been happening for months
When I plug in my phone to update and sync it says I have software version 4.1 and "A newer version of the iphone software is available (v 4.2). Click to update" so I click "update" and then it says "This version of itunes (9.2) is the current version". Well I didn't click update itunes, i clicked update for the iphone software. So I can't update the software. I have a 2nd gen iphone.
The only change that's happened is I think I tried downloading the newest version of itunes and it said my operating system is too old for it. So, itunes 9 opens fine, my music is in there. All of my apps have disappeared and I can't update my iphone software. Please help.Thank you. So, as far as the iphone update, I'm out of luck unless I get a new operating system, right?
Yes, I tried restarting my computer to see if they would reappear. I just checked the library on my hard drive and I can't see any applications there. They are still not coming up in the apps folder in the itunes library either.
Any ideas? -
Cannot install Itunes 11.1.1 update!:-(
Hi, i was wondering if any one could help me...
For over a week now i have been trying to install the latest Itunes update for my computer (11.1.1) but it simply doesn't work. It looks like it is installing and then says there is an error.
There is no error code and it says to install manually which i have tried doing but am still getting the same problem.
Any advice?
ThanksHi Lucybh,
I had a similar problem recently after the iOS7 update.
I keep my iTunes Library on a mac mini that's now nearly 6 yrs old and was running OS Leopard 10.5.8 (I think...?)
Unfortunately if your hardware is a little older, your OS is probably now outdated too and you'll continue getting the "cant update on this computer" "cant update this iPhone - Download iTunes version 11.1.1" warnings with iTunes
I looked online and found a copy of snow leopard OS (10.6.1) I installed it from the DVD and it's solved all my issues, although I'm now forced into using that new woeful user-unfriendly version of iTunes
***Warning*** DO NOT install anything your hardware isn't compatible with...always check the compatibility info against your system before you try and install software like an operating system (or anything else for that matter) anything!!! It could cause you no end of grief!!
Not sure if it will solve all your problems but it may be worth looking into if your base machine is a little older than a couple of years too?? -
I cannot download the new itunes nor can I update my iphone and ipad.
I cannot download the new itunes nor can I update my iphone and ipad. I constantly get an error everytime I try to download anything from apple.
What error?
Without details it is almost impossible to offer assistance. -
I cannot install itunes.
I downloaded i tenes and when i started installing it , it says "installing apple application support" and stops there
What can i do ?For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

cannot install itunes 7 because os 10.6.8 is needed. I select software update and the 10.6.8 is not available to be downloaded. I'm trying to load itunes to the iphone5
If you're using a PowerPC Mac, you can't.
If you're using an Intel Mac, phone the online Apple Store and order a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD.
If you don't know, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu.

I cannot install iTunes updates as of today. Does anyone have any idea what changed with iTunes?
The question apparently needs to be typed in twice... good work. Here it is again:
I cannot install iTunes updates as of today. Does anyone have any idea what changed with iTunes?Is this a distinct issue from the 42404?
If so, are you getting an error message when you try to install iTunes? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.) -

Amazing what a little effort put forth will reveal. -
My iPhone used to work in iTunes but quit working. I checked my USB portal and it works with other devices. I also uninstalled and re-installed iTunes. I added updates to my phone and re-booted it. I am not sure what else to do. My iPhone also locked in vertical position and no longer goes to horizontal.

Maybe it would have been a better idea to confirm that iTunes is supported in Windows 8 before buying a computer with that Operating System.
There will be a new version of iTunes released this month... no one forced you to upgrade prior to a supported version of iTunes being released.
Like the fact that you just called most of us stupid there -

I am running OS X 10.5.8 and i cannot install itunes 10.7. Is there a way to update my OS without paying?
I'm very afraid you will have to pay the immense sum of US $30 to upgrade to Snow Leopard.
Kappy 08/2012 post on upgrading to Snow Leopard, then Lion or Mountain Lion - https://discussions.apple.com/message/19401628 - including how to get Snow Leopard and Lion since Apple removed them from their online store.

I cannot install ITunes 10.6, my computer keeps blocking on it.
I cannot install ITunes 10.6, my computer keeps blocking on it. At first I had problems with the upgrade, then I couldn't start iTunes anymore, so I had to uninstall it in orde to reinstall it again. However that doesn't work.
Everytime I run the installation process, it blocks my whole computer when I'm in about 3/4 of the install procedure; The only thing I can do is push the on/off button to turn my PC off...
I have an iPhone and would like to be able to synchronize my data... Can someone please help me with this...
I don't know what to do anymore...

Mieke (Belgium)It will work with Windows 7 32 bit. On a 64 bit you will have to install Windows XP Mode. You can download it from the Microsoft Website. The XP Mode will run Windows XP in 32 bit. Microsoft has easy instructions on the download. One download at a time. Install the first download then the second download. You will have to copy your icon from all program and paste to the desktop if you are going to use it often.

Cannot install iTunes on windows 7 64bit
Okay, I like so many cannot install iTunes on Windows 7 64bit.
Now Orginally I got a message saying something to the effect of:
There was a problem with the install you do not have permission for something...
Through some investigating my iTunes was being installed and removing all my permissions to view and/or modify files within that folder. Even if I was logged in as admin and installed as admin all the permissions would simply block me out.
This kind of had a familar feeling as in the last few versions of iTunes I had to run as admin just to open it (this is really annoying by the way)
So I searched the net and many people were saying to uninstall everything "Apple" and try again. So I did that. Now I have this new message:
there is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
And again I scoured the internet for a way to fix this. I apparently am supposed to goto Control Pannel/Programs and Features and select Apple Software Update and select repair. The problem is that no longer exists in my programs list since I removed it in the earlier step. iTunes still refuses to install spitting out the same error forever. I tried the Microsoft "fix it" tool which is supposed to remove the Apple Software Update incomplete uninstall (which is apparently the whole problem) but it doesn't show up in the list for "fixing".
I am at a loss. Why doesn't Apple fix this. I cannot update my iPhone to the latest software in fear I may need to restore it. With no iTunes that is impossible. I cannot change any of my music or do anything until this is resolved. If/when iPhone 5 comes out I cannot get it either unless this issue is taken care of somhow.
I searched for an installer for just the Apple Software Update program But it seems to not exist as a standalone thing (it would be useful if it were though). If it were perhaps I could install it again and then successfully remove/repair it and iTunes might install finally.
Now I have had previous versions of iTunes working perfectly fine. I do not recall which version I was using before I tried to update and fell into this abyss however.Yes b noir. I've tried running just "iTunes64.msi" from the command-line and while it didn't produce the same error "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vender." it produced a different error in bold-type "iTunes Installer Completed" then "The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured...Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified...Please run the installer again, or click Finish to exit". However, I discovered a wealth of options from the Windows Installer to try after typing "iTunes64.msi passive"...So I'll experiment some more when I have time.
P.S. I'm becoming more convinced that Apple is putting new software out there to get it debugged which was a trick that MicroSoft always seemed to do:-)

These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.) -
