How do I uninstall the last itunes update on my new mac?

Ever since I downloaded the update for itunes it will not let me sync any music onto my classic ipod at all. Stupidly I restored it to maybe sync it and now i just have no music, how do i uninstall this update to have the itunes before on my new mac?

Below are instructions but I don't know if they are the solution to your problem.
=Downgrading from iTunes 11 to iTunes 10.7=
Try activating the sidebar, menu bar, and status bar and see if this is close enough to the previous version to make you content. It is easier than downgrading and eventually you will be forced to run a newer iTunes unless you have an endless supply of the model computer you currently own.
You may be able to go back with Time Machine but this may involve restoring other items too (https://discussions.apple.com/message/20441404). Alternatively:
Back up your computer first, in case the unexpected happens.
Here's a step-by-step method and you may find it easier to follow than alternative methods I have posted below.
Downgrade iTunes 11 to iTunes 10.7 - http://www.emacconsulting.com/apple/itunes/downgrade-itunes-11-to-itunes-10-7/
If the above does not work, or you want to do it without Pacifist, or you want to know what is actually going on when downgrading, or you encounter error messages, here's more details:
Quit iTunes.
Get iTunes 10.7 from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1576 or the direct download link at: http://appldnld.apple.com/iTunes10/041-7195.20120912.d3uzQ/iTunes10.7.dmg
Do a few preparatory steps by making sure all iTunes components are not running and cleaning old files.   See https://discussions.apple.com/message/20475394. Do steps 3 and 4. Steps 6-8 may be also useful but I don't know if they are essential. Some of the other steps are not necessary, duplicate steps listed later in my post or are perhaps even unhelpful in the process.
Replace the iTunes 11 application with iTunes 10.7. Simply dragging the application to the trash may not work. Lion (OSX 10.7) and newer systems have iTunes integrated into the operating system and deleting is a bit more involved. Two ways to do this are:
1. (Easier) Use the shareware Pacifist utility (http://www.charlessoft.com/) to install iTunes 10.7 including all associated system files. Details at http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=16400819&postcount=6
2. (More work) Check this reference on how to delete the iTunes application itself:
    Delete iTunes in Mac OS X 10.7 Lion - http://osxdaily.com/2011/09/13/delete-itunes-in-mac-os-x-10-7-lion/
    After deleting the application there may be other files that need downgrading too. See the note about error -42408 at the end of this post. You may want to tuck these away somewhere safe until you have completed the installation of iTunes 10.7. I have not tested this but ideally if newer versions are not found then the installer will put in the old versions. This may include these files in /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/ which apparently get updated by iTunes 11:
AirTrafficHost.framework
CoreFP.framework
DeviceLink.framework
iTunesAccess.framework
MobileDevice.framework
After doing one of the two procedures above you will have to rescue the most recent old iTunes library from your iTunes > Previous Libraries folder. Rename it "iTunes Library.itl" and replace the existing one in the iTunes folder. A newer version of iTunes irreversibly updates your library file so you have to replace it with the old one or you will get an error message. Note, this will revert your library to the version at the time of the upgrade and you will have to update any changes made since. See:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20401436 - turingtest2 11/2012 post on rebuilding empty/corrupt library from previous iTunes library file after upgrade/crash.
iTunes: How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
Other issues:
- https://discussions.apple.com/message/20432309 - solution to mobile devices saying they need to be restored after downgrading
- If you encounter error -42408:
iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297 > Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) - including specific error codes.
Alternatively, check https://discussions.apple.com/message/20441424 which requires you have a Time Machine backup (though possibly if you remove the newer version of these files old ones may be installed with the iTunes 10.7 installer - untested). A variant of this is at: https://discussions.apple.com/message/20448184
- Persistent "Show in iTunes Store" arrows after downgrade - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4567064
Send feedback to Apple telling them why your downgraded: http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html

How do i uninstall the last system update to fonts?

how do i uninstall the last system update?
It altered my helvetica font in a way that will cost me hundreds of hours re-kerning / resizing / repositioning text in CAD files for at least 10 large scale projects in progress at my architecture office.
This is an extremely serious & very expensive issue that has to be affecting all architecture firms who use macs the same way as it's affecting me & my business.

Apple does not support a downgrade. You can download OS X Lion Update 10.7.3 (Client Combo) and give it a try.

How can I uninstall the last Bluetooth Update

Hi,
Is there a way to uninstall the last Bluetooth Update dated June 19th version 2.1.6f8? Since I applied this update I have difficulties putting my computer to sleep. When I select the Sleep command the computer goes to sleep but then wakes immediately. The option "Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer" isn't checked. Before this update, I never had that problem which started minutes after applying this update.
I use both Apple wireless mouse and keyboard.
I wish I could revert to the previous version of the Bluetooth drivers because shutting down the computer instead of using the Sleep option isn't fun.
Am I the only one to have this problem?
Thank you

To me there is no doubt that my problem is related to that BT Firmware update because I had never experienced that problem before (for months) and I've changed nothing except that update.
You should reserve a little doubt about the cause because your reasoning is an example of the Post Hoc Fallacy. (That doesn't mean it is the wrong conclusion, just that 'after this' alone isn't enough to be certain that 'because of this' is true.)
For example, a preexisting abnormal condition in your system that the update reveals could be the cause. This possibility must be considered if (as it seems to be true) others are not having any similar problem after the update or had the same problem before applying it.
Your plan to unpair your BT devices & to turn off the BT hardware is a good troubleshooting step, but it will not necessarily eliminate causes not directly related to the update because other problems that evidence themselves only when BT is active could cause the immediate wake issue. For example, some part of the BT hardware itself could be defective, causing it to be incompatible with the update.
I also have to point out that if you have applied any OS software updates in the last several months, then it isn't true that you have changed nothing, & you must also consider them & any effects they might have on a preexisting condition as possible causes, even if the effects have not manifested themselves until now.
In short, if everything wasn't in perfect shape before the firmware update, 'after this' isn't solid enough evidence to conclude that 'because of this' is true.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Ever since the last iTunes update, my cloud movies and TV purchases all vanished from my iTunes library.

Ever since the last iTunes update, my cloud movies and TV purchases all vanished from my iTunes library. I go to Settings>Store>Show Cloud Purchases, but Show Cloud Purchases isn't there. So, I go to the store, then click on purchases, and I download anything from my iTunes account. Now, I go to Settings>Store>Show Cloud Purchases, and it is back. I check the box, and my cloud purchases are again back in iTunes.
OK, I wouldn't bother posting this, but a day or so later, it all happens again. Cloud purchases gone, no option to fix in the Settings>Store menu until I go to the store and download something again.
How do I get iTunes for Windows to keep showing my cloud purchases without having to do this silly work-around every day or two?

Audiobooks are not avaiable for redownload from iTunes, though I suspect you may find they are still on your computer even if not currently listed in your library. This may help...
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the iTunes folder from any real-time scanning process.

TS1363 Since the last iTunes update my iPod will not connect to iTunes

Since the last iTunes update my iPod will not connect to iTunes. My computer recognizes it but as soon as I launch iTunes I get the error message: An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly. I have done ALL troubleshooting steps and it still gives me the error...... this only happend since I updated iTunes.

Doublechecking. Have you also worked through the following troubleshooting document?

How to fix runtime error R6034 when using Microsoft Vista on an HP computer. Started with the last itunes update.

Problem started after loading last itunes update. Uninstalled itunes from my HP but still getting error message when I start up the computer. Is there a new update on itunes?

Uninstall your existing copy of iTunes. Delete any copies of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer files from your downloads areas for your web browsers and download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
(The current build of the 11.1.4.62 installer was changed a few days ago, which fixed the bulk of the reports of MSVCR80.dll/R6034/APSDaemon.exe/Error-7/AMDS-could-not-start trouble ... but the build number on the installer was not changed. So we're trying to make sure you do the reinstall using a "new good" 11.1.4.62 installer instead of an "old bad".)
Does the install with the new copy of the installer go through properly? If so, does that clear up the error message?
If you still have the same error messages cropping up, then try the procedures from the following user tip:

What happened with the last iTunes update? Only my purchased music remains.My iPhone still has everything.

Anyone know how to put your ripped music back into iTunes from your iPhone? I tried syncing but it gives a warning saying are you sure you want to erase your media or something to that effect.I'm afraid to do anything now and it happened right after the last itunes for windows update. I spent hours ripping cds to have them stored in iTunes in case anything ever happened to my cds or devices. Did I waste my time?

Restore your library from an up to date backup.
If you don't have a backup (which you really should), see turingtest2's user tip on Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash for steps necessary to restore your library within iTunes - this assumes that your media is all present on your computer, as it always should be.
Otherwise, see tt2's notes on Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device

How do I uninstall the firefox 16 update from my computer? it won't allow my antivirus to scan for viruses and spyware!!

when I installed this update it said that it was not compatible with my Norton toolbar, which I didn't think would be a problem. now I've got malware ads popping up on different websites and when I scan my computer for viruses/spyware, it always says there is no risks. I find that hard to believe. I just want to uninstall the last update (Firefox 16).

You posted here with Firefox 17.0.1.
Try running a Norton Live Update so Norton can update their Firefox add-on and get that Toolbar working again.
That said, Norton doesn't do anything about Malware. You need a Malware application to locate and remove Malware.
Install, update, and run these programs in this order. They are listed in order of efficacy. '''''(Not all programs detect the same Malware, so you may need to run them all to solve your problem.)''''' These programs are all free for personal use, but some have limited functionality in the "free mode" - but those are features you really don't need to find and remove the problem that you have. 
''Note: If your Malware infection is bad enough and you are mis-directed to URL's other than what is posted, you may have to use a different PC to download these programs and use a USB stick to transfer them to the afflicted PC.''

How do I uninstall the last update to itunes

Hello, I just installed the update to iTunes... 7.6.2.
How do I go back and uninstall the update so that I can use the version I had before it?
Thanks

7.6.1 appears to be still available (but hidden, as Apple likes to do with old versions) [here|http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/itunes761.html]

After the last iTunes update, I lost EVERYTHING in my iTunes library (music, videos and podcasts). How do I get them back?

iTunes was just updated on my Windows 7 and now I lost EVERYTHING in my music library. All of my music that I added and purchased, all my videos (TV shows) and all of my podcasts (some of them are older podcasts that I was saving to listen to for later and I can't ever get them back because I don't subscribe to them now). How do I get all my files back? I'm so upset! I had a similar issue a earlier this year with an iTunes update. I wish I can keep everything the way it is without ever having to update the program. I either lose ALL my files or the program doesn't work right.
Please help me.
Thanks,
Jenny
