Does iTunes 7+ work on older Dell (550 MHz)?

Hello,
I currently have iTunes 6.0.5 running on a Dell 550 under WinXP and it runs fine. When 7 came out, I atttempted to install it, but it produced stuttering and skipping so I reverted back to 6. I've updated the audio drivers as best I can (after all its an old machine). From what I've seen online, people are still having problems with 7.3 skipping on newer faster machines. Has anyone gotten iTunes 7.3 to run correctly on older Dell machines (i.e. ~550 MHz processors).
Thanks.

It turns out my daughter installed Apple Software Update and allowed it to install iTunes 7.3.2 and Quicktime. iTunes does appear to work, although I do notice some sound problems (stuttering, scratchy sound, etc.) when iTunes competes with another application. I wonder how it will perform with 7.4?

  • Does iTunes Producer work through a proxy?

    I am trying to get iTunes Producer to work through our corporate proxies. I have opened up TCP 33001 and TCP 44001 like the documentation stated. From the proxy servers I am able to connect to these TCP ports as well as the required UDP ports that are listed in the documentation. However, as soon as I try to upload a book in iTunes Producer, it get an error.
    Does iTunes Producer work in a corporate environment that uses a proxy? Or is it like APNS that will not work through a proxy?

    It seems that your office network is blocking the app. Maybe the old releases used a port not closed by your firewall but in the newer releases it uses another port which it is closed. That maybe explains the reason you cannot connect. You should contact your network administrator.

    Does iTunes card work on iPad1 ?

    If you don't have an iTunes account already, I think that may be why you are getting that message. This article explains how to set up an iTunes account without a credit card - if that is what you want to do. No matter what, you need to create an account in order to use the card.

  • Does iTunes 12 work with the iPod Classic ?

    Does iTunes 12 work with the iPod Classic ?
    Or do I need to stay with iTunes 11.4 ?
    Thanks

    Thanks, ( you just got your first 10 points, congratulations! )
    Ever since the iPod Classic was discontinued I have stopped purchasing music on iTunes. So I did not have a compelling reason to upgrade.
    I have heard others having troubles and I got concerned that perhaps Apple had dropped support for the Classic on iTunes 12 because it was discontinued.
    Thanks for helping.

  • How does Itunes Match work?

    If I subscribe, does ITunes Match suck all of my songs off of my Imac and take them to the cloud, update them and return them to my hard drive - can I get the improved quality stuff back on my hard drive to replace the "inferior" stuff or does it stay in the cloud?
    Next question - I have a bunch of songs in ITunes, more in a Music folder, and more in a downloads folder. I assume they should all be in ITunes to use ITunes match the best way. How do I get them out of the other folders into ITunes? Where should songs be on the computer (LION 10.75).

    First, Thanks.
    So I couldget all of my musc into Itunes (still not sure how) including the music on my IPOD, transfer it by Match to the cloud.
    To add music to iTunes either simply drag-n-drop it, or pull down File > Add to Library. For music that is only on an iPod see this user tip: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

    Then could I download them all to a seperate folder, throw away the older stuff, somehow transfer the new stuff back into ITunes,and have all new stuff on my HD and Time Machine Back-up?
    There is no downloading, moving or "transfering" required. Everything is done directly in iTunes. Time Machine will then backup everything on the internal HDD.

    One more question - if they go to the cloud, do they sta there so my wife's Ipad and Iphone can play them?
    You wife will have to be logged into your iTunes Store account to access iTunes Match.

  • How does iTunes Match work - do I keep the music?

    Hey guys! With iOS 7, I can finally stream my music that I downloaded/bought on iTunes directly from iCloud, which is really amazing because I can finally free up my storage on my iPhone. Now, the only songs I have to store are the ones that I bought from places other than iTunes and I'm actually thinking about subscribing iTunes Match for several reasons:
    1. I don't just download music from iTunes, I sometimes also buy music on Amazon and Google Play.
    2. The music I bought on Amazon somehow  has lower volume(intensity level, i.e. not loud) sometimes.
    3. I did rip and still rip some music from CDs and it would be great if iTune can match it and then I can just stream them from iCloud.
    4. The quality of some of the music I ripped was not the highest quality and I would love to upgrade them without having to rip them all over again.
    Now, here is my question. Will the songs stay if I only subscribe iTunes Match for a year only and then cancel the service? That means if I cancel the service a year later, can I still stream my music from iCloud? So the music I bought elsewhere is equivalent to the music I bought on iTunes (the music stays with my Apple ID). One more question, I heard that sometimes iTunes can't match your songs because the artist name or album name in your library are spelled or showed differently (',' rather than '/', "The" rather than "the"). If iTunes can find the right album artwork for my music, can I also assume it will match my songs without any problem? So all I have to do *if* iTunes can't find the music is to modify the artist name or/and album name?
    That's it! Thank you in advance!

    Do you know how iTunes match the music? For example, I ripped the CD "Rent [Film Soundtrack]" and there are actually two discs, so I have two album names Disc 1 and Disc 2 while iTunes version only has one album and with different name of course ("Rent (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)"). In this case, will iTunes Match work?If not, is there anyway that I can make it work?
    As I mentioned, ID3 tags are not a factor in whether a track will match or not. The service uses a small "sonic fingerprint" of the file which it compares against an online database. So your ripped album having a slightly different Album name than what is is in the iTunes Store actually will not have any effect on the tracks matching or not.

    Another thing is that I know I get to keep my music as long as it is in my HDD, but can I still stream my songs directly from iCloud after I cancel the subscription as if I bought them on iTunes?
    No.

  • Why does iTunes stop working when I click on the menu bar?

  • Does iTunes Tagging work with iPhone 5?

    I'm using Sony XDR-S10HDiP for listening HD radio with iTunes Tagging. Just before switched my phone from iPhone 4S to iPhone 5, iTunes Tagging worked well with iTunes.
    But iTunes11 doesn’t display tagged information when I try to transfer tagged information stored in XDR-S10DiP to iTunes 11 via iPhone5.
    According to a fact that XDR-S10DiP displays “Tags Transferred to iPod” on its display, it seems that XDR-S10DiP transfers tagged information to iPhone 5 appropriately.
    Is this a bag on iPhone 5 or iTunes11?
    (I’m using a 30pin-Lightning adaptor for connecting iPhone5 to XDR-S10DiP.)

    If you are attempting to transfer files between the two, no there is no supported protocol to do so.

  • Does iTunes no longer support older iPods?

    Does anyone know if Apple has discontinued support for older ipods (in my case, a 2nd gen classic, 20gb, released in 2002).  ITunes will no longer recognize this ipod since iTunes ver10.6.  I thought maybe iTunes 11 would fix it, but it has not.  This is on a mac mini, 2009 edition.  I then tried it on a PC laptop which still has iTunes 10.5, and the ipod was recognized. 
    I don't use the old ipod much, but I would still like to change the music on it from time to time.
    Any insight would be appreciated.

    Huh. I just downloaded iTunes 11 a couple days ago, and my iPod (a 2nd generation iPod nano, 4 GB) still works. I think it should work.
    What I did, is I had my iPod connected back when I converted from like, iTunes 10.5 to iTunes 10.6, I think maybe the iTunes can then be recognized? I know when I had iTunes 9.(something...), and I tried connecting to a computer with 10.9 (I think. well, one of those), it wouldn't work. So maybe, you have to go step by step? Although my iPod wasn't connected when I was upgrading to iTunes 11, so that's just a theory.
    Try going on the PC laptop and then keeping your iPod connected when upgrading to iTunes 10.6, see if that works

  • Why does iTunes stop working when I try to type the album name in to submit cd track names?

    I have a cd that I'm trying to separate, but whenever I try to type the album name in the submit CD track names box, iTunes freezes, then quits working. Why is it doing this and what can I do to stop it?

    Does it happen for any slideshow? Or only for one slideshow with certain images?
    Does iPhoto also freeze for a new iPhoto library, if you create a new library with some test images?
    If iPhoto only freezes for a certain slideshow, check, if it is one of the photos or videos, that is making the slideshow freeze. Create a new slideshow and add the images one by one, to fnd the one, that cannot be played. Remove it.
    If iPhoto only freezes with all slideshows in your current library, repair your iPhoto library. It may have been migrated with permission issues. How did you restore the library, after you wiped your mac and clean-installed?
    To repair the library using the First Aid Tools, see Old Toad's post here: Rebuild iPhoto Library, Version 11, see "Fix 1". In your case, I'd start with Repair Permission, the Repair database. Apply the other fixes, if need be.
    Post back, if the repair does not help.

  • Why does itunes match work on some of my devices and not others

    I have a Iphone 4, Iphone, Ipad 2, and a new Ipad.  recently i purchased itunes match and everything seems to work fine... then the new ipad lost all music.  all other devices are working properly.  it shows the music, but all tracks are 0:00 and cannot do anything with it.

    Sounds like a simple local file corruption.  Would suggest re-installation of the application.
