How do i make my mac 10.4 up tp date to download itunes for my shuffle?

I've just bought a shuffle and plugged it into my imac (10.4 XS) last night and now it is saying that I cannot get any of my songs from itunes onto it because it isn't the latest version of mac?? What do I do? HELP! Thanks.

You first need to determine if your Mac can be upgraded at least to 10.5 (Leopard) so that you can get the newest version of iTunes.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Macintosh Software
Mac OS X version 10.5 or later
Safari 4.0.3 or later
200MB of available disk space
Since you are running Tiger (10.4.11) that means that your Mac might be a little older, so check out the system requirements for an upgrade to Leopard:

These should be your early steps to get up to date for your new Shuffle.

How can I make my Mac Book Pro print to a Panasonic KX-MB772?

How can I make my Mac Book Pro OSX 6.8 talk to a Panasonic KX-MB772 printer?

You can't. The KX-MB722 is one of the few remaining printers in the class of devices called "Windows Printers" that has no on-board printing software -- it relies on a host computer to provide all of the software functionality and Panasonic only provides such software for certain versions of Microsoft Windows. In this case, it means a 32-bit version of Microsoft Windows (2000-XP, though it will probably reliably on Windows versions up to 7). Note that these devices are not guaranteed compatible with future versions of Windows either (Panasonic has already dropped software support for this model).
I'm pretty sure that the device doesn't support remote printing without the software either (e.g., you can't setup a computer with Windows on it, share the printer, and then print to the shared printer without their software).

I moved my itunes from a pc to a mac. only my music was transferred, how do i make the mac my main itunes so the rest of my stuff transfers?

i moved my itunes from a pc to a mac. only my music was transferred, how do i make the mac my main itunes so the rest of my stuff transfers?

Don't understand?
There is no "main" itunes.
Your "stuff" will be wherever you put it.
Copy it from wherever it is now to wherever it is that you want it.
Perhpas if you explain, more help can be given.

How do I make a Mac forget it's ever been set up?

Does anyone know how I can make a Mac forget that it's ever been turned on, so that if it were booted up, it would go into the Setup Assistant as if it were new? I remember seeing a page on this on Google, but I can't find it any more.

Zeroing the hard drive means writing zeros to the drive to remove all data (fast erasing just removes the index file, but keeps the data). You can do it in Disk Utility, under Erase > Options.
If you already created the account and you made a mistake in the true name (the one which allows capitals and spaces) you can correct it via the Accounts preferences. If you made a mistake in the user name which is used in the home directory name, you can create a new user, make that one an administrator, and remove the old user.

How can I make an audiobook purchased from another source show up in iTunes as an audiobook and not as music?

How can I make an audiobook purchased from another source show up in iTunes as an audiobook and not as music?
They chapters are mp3 files. Changing the genre to "audiobook" or "audiobooks" does help.
I am sure this question will come up a lot, since the book in question is "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," purchased from Pottermore.com.

The one thing I would add to the instructions above is that the "Media Kind" menu is on the "Option" pane in the "Get Info" Window. This procedure has allowed me not only to make imported audiobooks show up as audiobooks, but imported podcasts show up as podcasts.

There are a couple of methods for using more than one iPod on a single computer. Method one which has already been described is to have two Mac or Windows user accounts which by definition would give you two completely separate libraries. Method two is to set your preferences so that either one or both iPods get updated with only certain playlists within one library. Have a look at this article and see what you think and go for whichever you feel suits your needs best: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer
Another option when using a single library is to set one or both of the iPods to manual update: Managing content manually on iPod
Choosing the update option "automatically update selected playlists only" allows you to create a playlist specifically for each iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used by the other iPod. Make your playlist a Smart playlist and limit the size to just below the advertised capacity of your iPod ( for example, around 3700MB for a 4GB or 1800MB for a 2GB Mini or Nano). You can read more about playlists at these links:

HT2688 my daughter wants to move some of her music she bought on itunes for her shuffle to her new ipod touch. how do i get this done?

my daughter wants to move some of her music she bought on itunes for her shuffle to her new ipod touch. how do i get this going?

The music should still be in her iTunes Library - the one she uses to put music on the Shuffle. Simply connect the new iPod to that iTunes library, make the choices she wants for syncing the music to the iPod (which I guess, may now include putting all her music onto the iPod, since it has more storage capacity) and press Sync.
Future Syncs with that Library will cause any changes of the Library to be copied to the iPod. Note that music is (or should be) copied to the iPod, not moved. There are two reasons for having the music in the Library:
makes it easier to put the music onto a newer iPod, such as now;
if or when the iPod needs a Restore, which will delete everything from the iPod, you will need to copy "the Library" back onto the same iPod.

How can I download iTunes for iPad Air?

Any idea about how I can download iTunes for my iPad Air? If it it is to be downloaded from the App Store, what is the name of the App?
Plus, how do I sync it to my iTunes library on my Windows PC?

The iTunes App on an iDevice is not the same as the iTunes Application for a computer.
