Help with new itunes 8.0

I was about to download the new itunes 8.0 and go buy a new nano 4th generation but I been reading that a lot you have been having horrible problems with it so i think i might wait a little longer,but i do have a question I just back up my entire library and playlists in my latest version of itunes 7.Now what would happen if I install i tunes 8 and do not work the way it should and worst what if my files some how disapear.Can I reinstall my itunes 7 files on itunes 8 and I ask this because am sure that if I upgrade to itunes 8 I could never go back to itunes 7 because apple will not offer it again.Also if I'm lucky and everything goes fine do I need to back up my files again once they are in itunes 8?,One more thing I know my 2th generation won't work with itunes 8,but since is still working just fine Can I just keep using it with my itnues 7 on my other windows user account untill it dies for good ,it's 2 years old so I think I'll have a funeral sonner than later.Any way if someone could help me please thanks very much.

well let me just say that i have just have had one problem SO FAR with itunes 8 and that was just with updating genius. But i have heard about older computers having trouble with it. So just depends on how old your computer is. My computer works fine with it. And i am getting my ipod nano on monday and can't wait.

  • Hard drive crash need help with new iTunes load and backup files

    I have looked through the posts and not found my situation.
    I had my iPhone synced to a PC computer and the hard drive crashed. I had an extensive library in iTunes, but none of the music was purchased online so I can't simply download it again. It was all from CD's, many of which belonged to friends. I now have an iMac. The music I like is still on my iPhone, but not on my new iMac. When I try to sync the iPhone with my iMac it wants to delete all the music on my iPhone. Is there any way to copy the music off my iPhone first - so I can add it back into my iTunes library?

    Yes, luckily I have been in this situation.
    You can download a free application that will take your music from your iPhone and place it onto your Macintosh HD.
    One of these should suit your needs:

  • Help with new itunes please!

    hi. I've just upgraded to the new 7.0 something itunes. It has only created album covers for my purchesed music, although many of my albums can be found in the music store. Would it be possible for to transfer the album covers over?
    Ray

    The program will not open and I get an error message of (-200).
    the -200 indicates a broken QuickTime. (itunes needs a fully functional QuickTime in order to launch properly.)
    let's try the following technique to replace your existing QuickTime.
    go into your add/remove programs, select QuickTime, and then click "Remove".
    Next, we’ll manually remove leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
    7. Restart your computer.
    after the computer has finished restarting, we'll try to get a fresh QT in there by doing a repair install of itunes.
    go back to Add/Remove. select itunes, click "Change", and then click "Repair".
    if the repair install goes through properly, restart the PC again, and try launching itunes again. does it launch properly this time?

  • My ipod 5.1.1 (9B206) will not sync with new Itunes version 12.0.1.26. Can anyone help

    My ipod touch 3rd generation OS  5.1.1 (9B206) will not sync with new Itunes version 12.0.1.26. Can anyone help

    What exactly happens when you try to sync?
    Does iTunes see the iPod?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?          
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod       
    Try syncing using the manual method                
    Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
    If iTunes does not see the iPod:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    Or
    See
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - I would start with
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or                     
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - Then do the other actions of:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    paying special attention to item #5
    - New cable and different USB port
    - Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • With new iTunes 11 how do you restart podcasts that used to regular pause

    With new iTunes 11 how do you restart podcasts that used to regular pause?
    Before iTunes 11, a symbol would appear in individual podcast lists showing that the sender requires you to confirm that you still wish to receive their podcast. This used to occur with all my BBC podcasts once a week usually at the weekend.
    Now with iTunes 11 this control seems to have disappeared. Tried all the new icons but nothing seems to do this.
    Now (as its Saturday) all my BBC podcasts have stopped as there appears no way to reconfirm that I still want to automatically receive them.
    Please help!

    Here are typical layouts for the iTunes folders:
    With iTunes 11 you might also have a Home Videos folder inside iTunes Media.
    In the simplest cases you copy the entire iTunes folder from <User's Music> on the source computer to <User's Music> on the target machine, install iTunes, and it "just works"TM.
    If the media folder (inside the red outline) has been split out to a separate location then you can copy the library folder (outside the red outline) as before and connect the drive holding the media so that it has exactly the same path as before. If the drive appears as D: on one system and E: on the other then the library won't be able to find the media.
    The crucial file is iTunes Library.itl - this contains a record of the tracks that have been added to the library, ratings, play counts, playlists etc.

    how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    The same way you would sync with any other version of iTunes.
    Connect the device. 
    Select the device.
    Select Sync.
    In the new version of iTunes, the sidebar is disabled by default.  With a device connected, it will be listed in the upper right hand corner.
    If you want the side bar back, type Cntrl + S.

    how can i sync my iPod with new iTunes on new computer without losing my old library? There is no backup iTunes/iPod files available.

    If you connect your ipod to your computer then look in the hidden folder labeled "iPod_Control" . (This is on a Mac version, but i think it's the same for Windows) and in "Music" is all your music mixed up in different folders. Just drag the MUSIC folder onto itunes then BAM! It's done ;D
    Source:... This is what I did when this EXACT thing happened to me ;D
