HELP! I can't download any iTunes updates from my browser!

HELP! I've been trying in vain to download the iTunes updates as they come out. When I click on the update button, I am taken to the download page on the apple site. There I see two separate collums: On the right, a blue collum describing the new features of iTunes, on the left, a collum where I am to enter my user info and click download... only my browser doesn't let me enter any information or click any download button; there is nothing there to enter! That collum is blank. I've had to go onto another computer and download the software and THEN burn it onto a CD. HELP ME!!! This also happens when I try to download any new iPod software update too.
This happens both when I use the latest versions of IE and FireFox.

well done, Philip!
I went ahead and entered apple.com into my safe list in Privacy Service, so hopefully that will stop it from happening. If not, at least I know how to get around it.
that's a good idea. a version of this problem also hits the ipod software updater download page. so if you ever need a copy of that, and you can't see the download buttons there, the same trick should work for you.
love, b

    Take a look at your remaining memory make sure you have enough memory to download the apps, also try restarting your iPhone by hold down the on/off and the home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo.

  • Can I download my iTunes library (from iCloud) in it's entirety if I have a hard drive crash?

    Can I download my iTunes library (from iCloud) in it's entirety if I have a hard drive crash?

    You can download the music from iCloud using the download arrows besides the songs - see the iTunes help:
    Play or download songs from iCloud
    You can play songs directly from iCloud, or you can download songs so you can play them when you’re not connected to the Internet.
    If a song is available in iCloud, it has a Download button next to it.
    To play the song, double-click it.
    To download the song, click the Download button.
    After you download a song to a computer, it remains in the computer’s iTunes library, even if you turn off iTunes Match.
    To only display downloaded songs in your iTunes library, choose View > Hide Music in the Cloud. This also hides anyprevious iTunes Store purchases you haven’t downloaded.

  • HT201272 Switched to new Mac (10.7.5) and now can't download any iTunes purchases.

    Since I've switched to my new Mac, I can't download any of the (music) purchases I make. (I used a cable between the two Macs to make the original transfer of "all my stuff" from the old Mac to the new, so the iTunes stuff I had then is on the new Mac.)
    I can see the download buttons, but when I push them, it stops it immediately and tells me I don't have the authority to do it.
    I'm the sole person on the iTunes account. It doesn't matter whether I make the purchase on the new or the old computer. I even tried deauthorizing the old computer, so that the only one on the account is the new one, and it still won't let me download what I purchase. I did find something where I originally only had Read privileges, but I added Write as well, so that should be OK. Not sure what else to try.

    OK, I'm replying to my own question, because I've figured it out... sort of.
    It seems that when I transferred computers, it set up my e-mail/Apple ID as a separate user! Why it did this, I have no idea.
    I went into the User folder and found that I was barred from accessing any of the stuff under that ID. It was not enough to simply give myself Read & Write permission; I also had to use the little pulldown under the gear symbol that applied it to all the items IN the folder.
    No idea why It would do this, but now it seems to have downloaded my stuff—at least some of it. (I know that one album is missing a song—?!) I'll have to check more completley later to make sure that it's ALL there.

  • I can not download any Itunes onto my XP x64 SP2 - any suggestions???  ty

    Can you download Itunes on to the 64-bit version of Windows XP, if so how?
    Here is what happened to me several times. I'm not computer savy, **** it.
    "+This Itunes installer is intended for 32 bit versions of Windows. It is highly recommend that you download and install the 64 bit Itunes installer instead. Continue with install+"?
    I click yes then it says, "+Apple Mobile Device requires that your computer is running Windowns XP SP@ or newer+"
    I'm running both, so I'm confused...
    then the last error i get is, "+IpodService Module (32-bit) has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvienience+"
    PLEASE HELP!
    thanks guys.

    XP64 not supported by iTunes.
    At least that is what Apple says. There has been reports in past for older versions of iTunes of ways to fool the system. Can't verify though.

  • Can't Download Any iTunes

    So, iTunes messed up my 2nd gen. iPod (click wheel). Sound slike it's giving a lot of people ****. Had a otn of problems with it and my iPod so I figured if I could just delete iTunes 7 and get the older version back, then I could have muy iPod functional and wait for Mac to pull its collective head out of its *** and do something, which would be GREAT. Anyway,I deleted iTunes 7 and tried to DL itunes 6.0.5 and it said that there was nothing to be installed. I deleted EVERYTHING iTunes form my computer and re-tried it. Still, it was to no avail. At this point, I figure a bad iTunes is better than no iTunes, so I try to download 7 again but it said the exact same thing; that there was nothing to be installed. There is no iTunes on my computer and it appears I can't download it at all. If there's anyone who could give me some advice, you may be saving the life of a Macbook. Thanks a ton.

    Go to HD>Library>Receipts> and remove iTunesX.pkg. Then try to reinstall what ever version of iTunes you want.
    I have 7.0.1 and OSX 10.4.8 - a second gen iPod as well as a iPod Photo and all is well. I am having no problems.
    Is your iPod software/firmware up to date?

  • How can I download previous iTunes purchases from older apple id after my Mac is associated with my current one?

    I have 4 MacBooks running MtnLion, iPad3, iPhones 2,3gs,4,and 4s,Time Capsule, and Apple TV....
    I have 2 Apple IDs [email protected], and [email protected]
    Almost all of my media is associated with gmail Apple ID. I want to retrieve my previous purchases, but don't need this Apple id aside from that.
    All of my computers and devices are associated with [email protected] id (I've set automatic downloads on all devices for [email protected])
    Now itunes will not let me download purchases I made on [email protected] for 60 days.....
    I actually wiped my 15" Mac pro, installed MtnLion and set it up with the me@gmail Apple ID (both icloud and itunes) just to get my previous itunes purchases. I downloaded about half, and then got sidetracked. Now when I go into itunes on it and try to download the rest, it says this computer is associated wth another apple id and can't download for 60 days!!!
    I tried deauthorizing, but to no end.

    Multiple people can indeed use multiple Apple IDs on the same computer in multiple user accounts as long as they do not use iTunes Match, automatic downloads or re-download any past purchases. However, if you'll read the KB article I posted a link to you'll see that for the purposes of those services a computer can only be associated with one Apple ID every 90 days. If the OP associates their friend's computer with their Apple ID and downloads purchases from the purchase history the owner of the computer will be locked out from using iTunes Match, automatic downloads or re-downloading any past purchases.
    It's not that the friend will be unable to use iTunes at all, but what the OP wants to do will associate their friend's computer to thier Apple ID for 90 days which may cause the friend some inconvinence.

  • Help I can't download my music back from the cloud to my new 5s!!

After downloading a couple of albums, it now says it can't download anymore at this time!! HELP All my music was bought from iTunes I really don't want to loose it all!!

  • Help! Can't download Logic Studio 8 from disc on newer Mac mini.

    This is my first post, and I'm a long time Mac lover, but am not super great at knowing my system as well as I should, and am only fair at "tech speak". I just upgraded to a Mac mini with a 2.5 GHz Intel i5, and am running Mac OSX Lion 10.7.5 (11G63b). I have Logic 8 from my previous system that I want to download from disc to my new system (my old Power PC iMac is gone in a hand-me-down, so it is not available). I popped in the install disc, and it came up with a message that says Power PC software is no longer supported. I have been looking at other posts trying to ascertain what to do, and have been seeing information about Rosetta, using older versions of OSX, running parallel systems, and all sorts of other possible fixes from varying years of postings. I am wondering if there is anything I can do, that doesn't take a boat load of cash, to make this work on my current set up. As well, I want to again apologize to all you Mac Masters out there if I seem like a noob to some of this, it's because I am. I would appreciate any help you can give, and thank you all in adavnce.

    Hi
    You can install using Pacifist.. last time I tried it, it worked OK.

  • I just updated my ipod touch to ios 6 and it is still telling me to update to ios 4.3. Help, I can't download any APS

    I just updated my ipod touch to ios 6 and it is still telling me I need to update to ios 4.3
    Help?

    I've spent most of the last two days trying to restore from back-ups and set up as new and neither worked. iTunes stopped recognizing it AS an iPod at one point so I tried reinstalling iTunes to make sure it was all up to date but it's still doing the same thing. Freezes or disconnects during sync or throws up an error message and 95% of the music that "has" synced is greyed out and not playable. I'm assuming the update has a bug cos these forums are full of problems people are having since the update, I had no issues with anything before this upgrade was installed.

  • HT204074 I can't download any iTunes to an iPhone 4 I have just got, though I can download apps etc? When downloading any iTunes it's downloads all the way across, then comes up with "download error, try again". I have over 12GB left? Any ideas?

    I have tried everything with resetting it etc etc. I don't have a problem with my ipad 3 or laptop, just getting the tracks onto the iPhone? Any help would be appreciated.

    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
    Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
    Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
    Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.

  • How can I download my iTunes library from my old Mac to my new iPhone 5 without being able to use iMatch. iMatch is not compatible with my old Mac that runs on 10.5.1

    Just got an iPhone 5, and learned that the 100 or more CDs that I had uploaded to iTunes on my older Mac cannot be downloaded to my new phone using iCloud/iMatch. I match is not compatible with the older operating systems. I spoke to a Apple genius, and he said that there is software out there that will do the job. Is anyone familiar with any of these? Frustrated, and need help.

    I regret to say that you need a new computer. That G5, as good as it still is, simply cannot run the required software to be used with the latest iPhones and other software.
