Correct ITunes version for Windows 2000 and Nano

My daughter just got a Nano for x-mas and is not recognized by old I-tunes software. I assume I need a newer version. However, 8.x that is advertised as latest version does not mention Windows 2000. I can't find any info on what version of ITunes I need or if there is one even compatible with both 2000 and the Nano. Can anyone tell me? I am incredibly frustrated by the lack of info on this and the lack of info in the user's manual. I see there are several different versions/generations of Nano, but have no idea how I am supposed to know what I have. I am not computer illiterate, but find this site poor at explaining questions like; how to tell what generation of Nano one owns, what version of I Tunes is necessary to synch with that version of Nanao, and is that version of ITunes compatible with ones operating system.
Can someone tell me what version of ITUNES I need (or if it is even possible)and where I can find it? Thank you if anyone can provide this info that Apple chooses not to make easily accessible.

So does this mean the IPOD is useless unless I get a whole new operating system so I can get the latest ITUNES?
I also found a fact sheet about what to do to re-install USB drivers if the IPOD isn't recognized by the computer (which it isn't), followed the instructions and it still is not recognized! Is there a place those drivers can be downloaded so I could try something other than ITUNES for putting music on?
I still contend that MAC does a horrible job of explaining these issues to people when they are buying. I've spent about 4 hours looking at help pages and have yet to see one that mentions minimum system requirements (ie Windows 2000 is not supported) and what, if anything can be done about it. I spent about a half hour trying to locate an e-mail help/customer service address to ask these questions and let them know about my frustration, but all I could find was the phone number, for which I only get one call! I don't have time to spend this much time trying to track this info down. My first computer was a MAC and talked for years about how great they were, but this lack of easy access to basic info/customer service has soured me on them. Sorry about the rant. Thanks for any help. While I am not a computer nerd, I work with them enough to know how to get around.

  • TS2753 i have removed iTunes and re-installed the latest version for Windows XP and still can't access the iTunes store; is there any way to get access to the iTunes store again?

    I am unable to access the iTunes store for the last two months, I've tried removing the software and re-installing the latest version for Windows XP and still no access; is there a solution that would allow me to get access again?

    If you haven't got a backup copy and if it's still in the store then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download (there is no guarantee that they will) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    Then you will need a copy of XP running in a virtual machine, or possibly bootcamp depending what Mac OS you're currently on.
    Rather expensive way to do it, but if it's Windows software, you need Windows.

  • Problems with iTunes 8 for Windows, 1G iPod Nano

    i'm running iTunes 8.0.1.11 on my Windows XP Pro SP3 desktop, using it to manage my 1G iPod Nano 4GB software version 1.3.1.
    ever since upgrading to iTunes 8, i've had a few issues with the way it syncs (or doesn't sync, in my view) with the iPod:
    1: podcasts.
    prior to iTunes 8, the two most recent unplayed episodes would sync and delete after play - "play" being defined as starting to play the podcast. i didn't have to listen to the entire podcast for it to be removed. this worked for me, because many of the podcasts i listen to are news highlight shows (some run almost 2 hours). i'm usually only listening to specific parts of the show, not the whole thing.
    now, if i haven't listened to the entire thing, it doesn't delete. not only that, iTunes doesn't even automatically throw away listened podcasts from the computer anymore. not so big a deal on the computer (it's got plenty of disc space), but on the teeny-tiny iPod, it's a problem.
    so now i don't listen to podcasts on my iPod anymore. is there a fix so i can take my news with me again?
    2: music playlists.
    prior to iTunes 8, when i synced a playlist to the iPod, it synced the playlist's +current order+. in other words, if it was shuffled in iTunes, it was synced to play in the shuffled order.
    not any more. now, it only passes the "base" order of the playlist; i.e., whatever order it was "built" or manually arranged in. this is bloody aggravating. i don't want to listen to the same ten songs every time i hit play.
    adding insult to injury, iTunes also no longer passes whether the playlist is set to repeat. so it stops playing after the last song. also extremely aggravating.
    i realize that i can select "Shuffle Songs" in the iPod's menu. but since this shuffles all the songs on the device, it somewhat defeats the purpose of having bleeding playlists, doesn't it?
    i realize Apple wants me to buy the newest, bestest hardware every time it comes out. but i like my old iPod, and it did exactly what i wanted and expected. until iTunes 8. so, any fixes for these issues out there?

    This is a well-known issue. Apple changed the internal file names used with iTunes 8, which makes the ordering on 2nd generation Shuffles behave differently. There is no good workaround, apart from moving the files with a hand-crafted AppleScript program.
    Apple has been silent on the issue, so nobody knows if we'll ever have a fix for it or not.

  • Oracle 8 Driver for Windows 2000

    I recently upgraded my Web servers to Windows 2000 Advanced Server. Previously I was running the site in Windows NT and used the setup program that came with the application to install the ODBC driver. I ran the same program in Windows 2000 but at the end of installation, it displays an error. Where do I download Driver and setup program to install correct version for windows 2000 Advanced Server?

    Which version of Oracle do you have and what is the error? Older versions of Oracle, i.e. 8.0.5 & 8.1.5, probably pre-date Windows2000 and thus aren't likely to be certified there.

  • Help!  oracle report out of order after update Rollup for windows 2000 sp4

    hello once again
    i haven't received any solution of my problem, so i am again uploading it.
    ----PROBLEM IS GIVEN BELOW-----
    i am having a problem in oracle report printing (2000,6i). I have installed patch "update Rollup for windows 2000 sp4" on windows 2000. now when i send report(132 column) for printing to the printer, the report fails to expand to 132 columns and data is printed in unformatted fashion. in order to print the report correctly i have to remove the patch from the windows.i have set all parameters and
    defining page size in files like wide180.PRT in printers folder in oracle directory.
    Is there anyway to print the report without uninstalling windows patch?
    thanks

    I don't have any idea about this issue. Maybe someone else on this forum can help. Meanwhile, there are couple of places you can search for this issue:
    Search google for printing issues with this patch
    Search Microsoft forums for Windows 2000
    And if you have metalink account, search metalink forum, document/note or open a SR for this.

    Hey mcooper156,
    I would try the troubleshooting steps in this first article:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1717
    If that doesn't resolve the issue, then I would try and remove iTunes (and its related software) then reinstall:

  • ITunes 7.4 for Windows 2000

    When will iTunes 7.4 be available for Windows 2000?
    Regards,
    Antony.

    Whatever. The fact remains that it's highly unlikely, though no user can ever say for sure, that any future version of iTunes will support Windows 2000. So your choices are 1) to upgrade to XP or Vista or 2) don't buy any of the new iPods or an iPhone. Sorry, but that's the status as of today and probably how it will remain.
    Microsoft is going to be supporting it until 2010.
    Just FYI, it's true that Microsoft will be "supporting" Windows 2000 until 2010, but though Microsoft continues to provide security hot fixes and paid support, they will no longer provide any non-security patches. So any bugs or incompatibilities that remain will be there forever, and none of the support architectures, drivers, etc. that exist in newer versions of XP (on which the new versions of iTunes and QuickTime may depend) will ever appear for Windows 2000.
    So your call. You know your options at this point.

  • I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes Version 11.4.1 and still cannot access. I continue to get the Error 7 Windows Error 193 and now I am getting the Apple Mobile Device failed to start. I can't access any of my music I HAVE PURCHASED. What  to do?

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes Version 11.4.1 and still cannot access. I continue to get the Error 7 Windows Error 193 and now I am getting the Apple Mobile Device failed to start. I can't access any of my music I HAVE PURCHASED. What  to do?

    I am getting the same error message - error 7, Windows error 193 running iTunes on a PC Laptop (HP) which has been running iTunes previously for at least 2 years. 
    I followed the Apple support page and uninstalled (in order) all Apple programmes specified, rebooted, then re-installed.  Two additional errors crop up in re-installation, the first one is to do with Apple Mobile Support Device Services.  It seems that this might be rectified by plugging in said devices before finishing the re-install.  The second reads iTunesHelper was not installed correctly please re-install iTunes.  This persists. I cannot uninstall iTunesHelper using the Control Panel, but I can delete it using Windows.  However, after re-installing again, it still won't run and the original error comes back.  I've downloaded and uninstalled 15 times now and this is taking far too long to be acceptable.
