HT1338 Mac OS X v10.5 and itunes 10.7

I have just bought an iphone5 and my itunes says i must download the latest version... 10.7
My computer doesn't let me download it saying i must have mac os x version 10.6.8 or later.
My computer is a mac os x version 10.5.8... does this mean i can not download this update? and that i will not be able to sync my new iphone??
Please help!

Yes, that is correct.
First check to see if your Mac can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from download, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $30.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number.
If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.

  • Mac OS 10.4.11 and iTunes 8.2 in April 2011 - no access to music

    I understand Mac OS 10.4.11 and iTunes 10 are not compatible, but why can't I keep using my iTunes 8.2 with my OS10.4.11 to access music on iTunes? Does anyone know how to make this work?
    There's too much bullying of people who are not adopting updates within the timeframes Apple feels are appropriate.

    Thanks Diane! I'm downloading it now. I didn't know there were still newer versions of iTunes that would work with my current system (10.4.11). To answer your question: I've been able to access my library, but as of this week, I can't access the store. First, it was only the store main page (many months ago) that wouldn't appear. A warning came up, "please update." But I could search for artists and go to their specific pages. Now, I can't even do that.
    I never updated to 10.5 because the word was Logic Pro (audio software) wasn't working well with the then new 10.5. So I stuck with 10.4.11. Everything has been problem free. Now we're far beyond that system, and so me (and others, I'm sure), are getting flushed into incompatibility because we can't afford an intel processor.
    I guess finally purchasing a now rare 10.5 system update would hold off my extinction.
    Anyway, thanks again!

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).

  • Mac os 10.4.11 and itunes

    ITUNES 10 WILL NOT LOAD ON MY IMAC OS 10.4.11.....WHAT DO I DO?

    As the specifications page for the iPad says, you need OS X 10.5.8 or later because you need at least iTunes 10.2, which requires OS X 10.5.8.  Depending on what Mac you have and how much RAM and disk space you have, it may be possible to upgrade your existing Mac to 10.5.8.  If you have a Mac with an Intel CPU, you might be able to install OS X 10.6.
    If you post what Model mac you have and how much RAM and free disk space, we may be able to advise if you can or should upgrade to 10.5 or 10.6, or whether you need a new computer.

  • I have the Mac Os 10.4.11, and iTunes store will no longer come up on my screen to order tunes.  A download screen appears for the new iTunes. I can't download the new iTunes unless I get the new operating system for my mac.  Is there a way around this?

    I have an iMac with a 10.4.11 operating system.  When I click on iTunes Store, I no longer get the iTunes screen, instead, I get a new iTunes download screen.
    I can't download the new iTunes without upgrading my operating system.  Is there a way around this problem without buying the new operating system?
    I haven't been able to download songs for awhile now.

    which version of iTunes are you on ? if it's earlier than iTunes 9.2.1, get it here.

  • TS1410 iPod has stopped showing up on Mac in Finder or desktop and iTunes.

    cord is connected. I rebooted. it shows up in disk utility. have had this iPod for 5 years, no problem. not sure what changed. Worked 2 days ago.
    suggestions welcome. thanks.

    Like the iPhone, I don't think the iPod touch has an "Enable disk use" mode.  So it will not appear in Finder or on the Desktop.

  • Sound Quality changes between itunes 8.2.1 and itunes 9.1

    I am using itunes and a modified Airport Express as my audio source in my Hifi Stereo system.
    It is working so well that I have discarded my high end audiophile CD player.
    However I found an issue with itunes consistency from version to version in audio quality.
    Here is the experience I conducted:
    Using:
    - a mac mini with Snow Leopard and itunes 8.2.1 and a macbook pro with Snow Leopard and itunes 9.1.
    - Identical Wav (full res 16bit 44.1Khz) files local to each mac.
    to be completely accurate the music used was:
    Ben Webster Meets Oscar Peterson: T01 The Touch Of Your Lips
    Diana Krall Live in Paris: T11 A Case of You
    - in both cases itunes streams to the Airport Express (same one)
    -> The result is that the there is a difference in sound between the two itunes, and I would like to understand what changed or why this difference?
    If I were to describe the differences I would say that itunes 8.2.1 delivers a softer sound with more medium than itunes 9.1. Itunes 9.1 would have a brighter sound with less medium than itunes 8.2.1.
    (On a side note, not relevant for the problem above, but could interest some people: When I access with my mac with itunes 9.1 the itunes 8.2.1 library on the other mac, the sound quality streamed to the AE is poor compared to either itunes version used with local files. I wonder how apple streams the music from one itunes to the next but that music it altered may be compressed in this case.)
    Message was edited by: cdfr

    Chris thanks for this answer.
    I did check the settings on both Macs/itunes and they are identical. Everything is disabled. The remote volume is also disabled on both.
    So the sound quality difference cannot be explained by that.

  • Manually sync Notes and Safari bookmarks via USB cable for iOS device and an iMac with MacOS 10.7 Lion and iTunes 11

    "I'm aware that with MacOS 10.8 Mountain Lion there is no support for USB cable sync of iOS devices." Notes and Safari Bookmarks cannot longer be sync via USB cable with iTunes. For owners of iPhone 3G that cannot upgraded the device to a version higher than iOS 4.2, syncing Notes and Safari Bookmarks via usb cable with iTunes is the only option we have. There is no iCloud integration for Notes and Safari Bookmarks under iOS 4.2. I'm not updating to MacOS 10.8, because there is no way to sync Notes and Safari Bookmarks via cable. So I won't be able to sync those anymore unless I upgrade to a newer model of iPhone. I'm not into a new hardware investment, at least not for now. I just want to know if iTunes 11 running in MacOS 10.7 Lion still have the functionality of sync Notes and Safari Bookmarks via USB cable.

    Mac OS 10.7.5 and iTunes 11.0.4.

    I want to confirm if "other" still appears with iTunes 11 and MacOS 10.7 for sync Notes and Safari Bookmarks:
    Yes.
    If you are sincing Notes via iCloud, iTunes will tell you so.
    If you change the iDevice - Settings> iCloud > Notes - Off, they sync (or not sync) thru iTunes (either wifi or cable).
    So my question now would be:
    Is "Notes" manual sync checkbox option provided under "Others" in iTunes 11.0.1 with MacOS 10.7 Lion?
    If you change the iDevice - Settings> iCloud > Notes - Off, then yes.
