How unbelievably appalling is this iTunes Upgrade?

iTunes 11 firstly failed to load correctly so I had to do a "repair" reinstall;
It then consistently froze when I tried to synch to my iPad;
It then took about 10 minutes to download some App updates that downloaded in a minute under the previous version;
It has so far taken about 20 mins to synch 2 of the downloaded apps to my iPad;
My PC is a reasonable well spec'd Windows 7 machine - a couple of years old;
Absolutely no problem under the previous iTunes, but I'm appalled at what I am seeing with this Uograde.

Bottom line is, just because I pay a phone company 15 euro a month for their service doesn't make them responsible for software updates for a phone I happen to own.
No, you didn't buy it from BlackBerry. You bought it from a third party retailer. BlackBerry does not sell device direct to consumers.
And yes, the OS updates are tested, certified and released by the individual mobile providers. BlackBerry builds the OS and the mobile operators release it. Because you have XXX (Vodafone, Tmobile, Orange, AT&T) in your BlackBerry, you've committed to that carrier for the update.
The fact that you might want it to be different, does not make it a fact.
Now, if you want to update otherwise, often removing the SIM card from the device and connecting to a PC with the PC browser at www.blackberry.com/updates, "may" get you the update. There are other workaround for this as well.

    Hi Diesel vdub,
    Did that and I tried again, download stops halfway through and comes up with same message I have already quoted. Wifi Signal is 5/5, network is working, just not letting me download via iTunes.

  • Firefix upgrade will not finish. It is proabably due to upgrading in a limited XP account. How do I fix this and upgrade?

    I get this Setup message: "Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade of Firefox. Do you want to reboot now?" anytime I try to start Firefox or if I try to upgrade, uninstall, reinstall or start Firefox in Safe Mode. Reboot does not correct this. It is probably due to upgrading from a limited XP account. I cannot now upgrade or fix this from an administrator account. How do I fix this and upgrade?

    Try running Firefox as an admin - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Software%20Update%20Failed#w_run-as-administrator
    If that doesn't work, try [[Basic Troubleshooting#w_7-reinstall-firefox|removing and reinstalling Firefox]].

  • I have Mountain Lion OS Install CD downloaded onto my external hard drive, how do I use this to upgrade from Leopard

    Current computer that I just bought used is operating on Leopard 10.5.8
    I have Mountain Lion OS X CD installation files downloaded on my external hard drive from another Mac that I have owned.
    How do I use my external HD to download and Install Mountain OS X wizard.
    Is the only way to do this to buy a copy of snow leopard and then once upgrading to that, plug in my external HD and then access the Mtn install file as I would if I had the installation CD?
    When I try to access the install file from my external HD, i get to the installation window and then when I am to select a hard drive to install it on I receuve a red exclamation mark error that says it can not be written to the HD. Why is this? Because I'm not on snow leopard but rather leopard?

    As you have the installer on a DVD, you can do a trick that consists in formatting the hard drive, and then, install Mountain Lion.
    First, make a backup of your files with Time Machine > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427 I recommend Time Machine because it will be easier to restore your files later.
    Then, insert the DVD with Mountain Lion and hold the C key while your Mac is starting, so you will see a window with different options. Open Disk Utility, choose Macintosh HD in the sidebar, go to Erase tab and erase the drive.
    After erasing the drive, you can install Mountain Lion. Close Disk Utility and install it. During the initial setup, it will ask you to restore your files, so plug the external drive with the backup and follow its steps. Note that PowerPC apps aren't compatible

  • How do I fix this iTunes issue???

    I store all my media on an external drive that I have networked.  I have gotten rid of the local copy iTunes keeps on my macbook because it was taking up too much space.  Now I'm trying to put everything back into iTunes from it's network location and I get the spinning beachball.  It's making me crazy because I NEED TO FIX THIS!!!  Has anyone had this happen and know how to fix??

  • How do you fix this iTunes error? We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (-50).

    I am trying to update my iPod Touch to iOS 8.1 from ios 7.1.2 and i have also been trying to transfer my ipod apps to my computer/itunes but this error keeps showing up: "We could complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (-50). Does anyone know how to fix this issue? If you do, please let me know! Thanks!

    The instructions found at http://igyaan.in/2011/01/how-to-fix-mac-app-store-an-unknown-error-occurred-100- problem/ fixed my problem
    Basically, logout of your Apple ID. Quit App Store. Logout of your mac, log back in. Login to Apple ID, and enjoy downloads.

  • How do I fix this "iTunes could not connect to this iPod touch. Could not allocate a resource."

    Believe I have my iPhone and iPod touch up to date, but now every time I plug in, I cannot update anything, and just get this message "iTunes could not connect to this iPod touch. Could not allocate a resource."
    I have thrown out stuff in the Lockdown folder and done some things in Terminal app, but nothing fixes it.

  • TS3074 windows tells me that framework 4.0 already install, it doesn't give the option to repair the file, resulting of no option to do anything else? what should i do, how i can fix this itune 2 work, yesterday it works fine but when i came 2 install upd

    what should i do??
    give me message error 7 for itune and error message 126 for windwos works fine until i did updates yesterday.

    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 press on)
    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.
    See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • My iPad 2 will no longer Sync with iTunes on my computer.  It tells me to Restore which I don't want to do as I may lose valuable information from my iPad. My wife's iPad 2 and my ipod still Sync OK. How can I overcome this?

    My iPad 2 will no longer Sync with iTunes on my computer.  It tells me to Restore which I don't want to do as I may lose valuable information from my iPad. My wife's iPad 2 and my ipod still Sync OK. How can I overcome this?

    Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
    $19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard.

  • HT1443 I need to upgrade my MAC Os X 10.4.11 TO be 10.6 or greater. How can I do this?

    I need to upgrade my MAC OS X 10.4.11 to be 10.6 or greater. How do I do this?

    Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.

  • My itunes library is empty but i want to upgrade my ipod without losing my music. how can i do this? please someone HELP!!!

    i recently got a new laptop so my itunes library is empty but i want to upgrade my ipod without losing my music. how can i do this? please someone HELP!!!

    but i got music from my old laptop and my little brothers laptop so basically its no way i can take whats already on my ipod and put it on my computer and drag and drop it to my new itunes library

  • I upgraded to iTunes 11 and I got all of the songs on my families' other computers. How can I stop this from happening?

    I upgraded to iTunes 11 and I got all of the songs on my families' other computers. We all share the same AppleID, that's why this happened in the first place; but, I do not want their songs on my computer, how can I disable this without deleting the songs forever or making a new AppleID?

    I did not upgrade to the newest version of Itunes on my PC.  I just now went to my Library were Music is listed. Under that is Movies, TV Shows, ItunesU, etc.  When I opened my music list, each song was in numerical order.   If I have the songs listed alphabetically, they are in numerical order.  If I change my listing to album or whatever, the first song is listed in numerical order just as I showed in my original question.  They are also numbered on my Playlists.  I have my favorites in two different playlists.  One of them was minus a song.  I was able to see which one was missing because they were in numerical order.  I know I could have just copied to correct one into the incorrect one and just skipped the duplicates, but I chose to do it this way.
    So, the songs are listed numerically in my music folder under Library on my older version of Itunes.  But, on my newer version, they are not listed numerically under music.  Maybe I'm doing something wrong?????
    Thanks so much for your help.  I wish they would just leave things alone.  I would gladly go back to the older version on my other computer, but???? 
    Again thanks.

  • I would like to upgrade my itunes but have a macbook 10.8.5. How can I do this?

    I would like to upgrade my itunes but have a macbook 10.8.5. How can I do this?

    Do you have 10.8.5 or 10.5.8?  It's listed as the latter on your equipment setting, but you stated that you have 10.8.5?  If you have 10.8.5 you have the most recent version and you should be able to update iTunes by checking for updates.  However, if you have 10.5.8 you need to first update to 10.6 so that you can download the new version of iTunes.  To upgrade to 10.6 (Snow Leopard) you need to get a hold of Apple so that they can send you the install DVD which will allow you to update your computer, after that, you can then download updates and get access to the App Store right from your desktop where you can then download Lion or Mountain Lion should you choose to move on further.

  • Tried to upgrade to iTunes 10.7, got error 7 (windows error 5). How do i fix this?

    Tried to upgrade and install the latest version of iTunes, 10.7 and received an error after install process. Error states that itunes was not installed properly, and a reinstall is necessary. Shows Error 7 (Windows error 5) in the message. No matter how many times I uninstall and reinstall, the same error persists. Already tried the MS .NET Framework upgrades to no avail. Anyone have any idea on how to fix this issue?

    A complete uninstall/reinstall of iTunes and related software components is worth a try (7s can indicate trouble with other software components like Apple Application Support). See the following documents for instructions:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    ... But if no joy there, let's check to see if there's a .NET issue underlying this:

    I know this doesn't help you Bud, but I've had this issue for at least the last couple of versions.  If I can ask, what is you enviornment like?  Local PC only, libray saved on another PC/Server? 
    In my case my library is on Windows 2003 server with the share mapped to drive M:  This has worked for many years through both XP and Windows 7 until and update a while ago. 
    Thanks,
