HT1918 Is this outdated-- for older version of iTunes, as far as the exact mouse clicks go?

The exact menus that one comes across are not correctly described for the latest version of iTunes.

Let us know where you are stuck, or what it is you are trying to do...

I have a G5 and iBook with PowerPC/iTunes 10....just recently I can't bring up the preset Internet radio on either one. Is this a glitch, or have they been permanently disabled for older versions of iTunes?

I have a G5 and iBook with PowerPC/iTunes 10....just recently I can't bring up the preset Internet radio on either one. Is this a glitch, or have they been permanently disabled for older versions of iTunes?

I should have posted this for you a while ago. My apologies for not doing it sooner. This was passed on to me by another user R C-R
He deserves the credit for this workaround. This is his post from an area in the forum where you have to be level 6 or higher in which to participate.
I am getting the same (global) error using iTunes 10.3.1 on a 2008 MacBook running 10.6.8.
A really, really awkward workaround that works for me (for now) is if you have the URL of the Internet radio server you can go to Advanced > Open Stream... (in iTunes 10.x) or type command + U, enter it there & click OK. The station should play fine in 10.x.
You can get the URL from any version of iTunes that still supports the "radio tuning service" (which I gather is an Apple server thing Apple is no longer supporting for 10.x). Play the station normally from the newer version & type command + I to open the info window. At the bottom of the "Summary" tab you will see the URL. (Annoyingly, you can't copy the text so you will have to write it down.)
Once you have that, you can play the station in 10.x & add it to a playlist for future use.
To check this out, maybe try http://198.27.80.37/stream/mbarsott.pls -- it is a European Jazz station that works fine for me with iTunes 10.3.1.
This workaround does work, but is a bit cumbersome. I'm still holding out hope that it is just a glitch.

Looking for older version of Itunes to run on Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.6GHZ Windows XP

looking for older version of iTunes to run on Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.6GHZ Windows XP

? Please read my original post again. Maybe how I said it was confusing but that is exactly how I checked it... in VISTA. Exactly the way the link you gave me described.
You do understand the message I am getting says: *itunes.exe has been set to run in compatibility mode for older version of windows. For best results, turn off compatibility mode for itunes before you open it.* I am interpreting this to mean that compatibility is set for something OTHER then VISTA since it it saying "for and older version of Windows".
When you tell me to "Check the compatibility mode in Vista not iTunes" what the heck do you even mean? How do you check compatibility in iTunes?
Thanks for trying to help, but not sure you read my post as I intended. I have seen one other post that mentioned the same problem, but that post never got a response that was helpful.
Thanks for trying. Later !
p.s. I still need help from someone.

Reinstalling older version of itunes

Yes, I am one of the unlucky who jumped on upgrading itunes and having crash problems. How can I install older version? I tried (filehippo.com) but it failed because I have the newest version. If I uninstall itunes in order to reinstall, will I lose my library? (this cannot happen, lol.) I loaded ewido and stand alone of quicktime, cleared files and cookies and still having probs. sigh Thanks, Mis

Realize that the older versions of iTunes may not read the Library database file created by more recent versions (the 'iTunes Library.itl' file).
You should not lose your PC music files, but your Library database may be unreadable. This file contains Ratings, Play Cpounts, Playlists, and Last Played attributes.
Make sure you make a complete backup of your Library information. These are the files you need (not all may be useful in a downgrade, though):
1) All music files in their current folder structure (usually located in and under the ‘iTunes Music’ folder)
2) The Library database file: ‘iTunes Library.itl’ located in the ‘iTunes’ folder
3) The Library XML file: ‘iTunes Music Library.xml’ located in the ‘iTunes’ folder
4) Any XML playlist files you created for Playlist retention
5) The two iTunes.pref files (optional)
-- C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
-- C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer Inc\iTunes.pref
6) The XML file of Ratings, Play Counts and Last Played attributes saved from the main Library and created by Otto’s SaveRatings script (also optional, but recommended):
“Download this: http://ottodestruct.com/itunes/SaveRatings.zip . It's a program, just run it like any other program. Run it on the machine where you're copying the info from BEFORE you move the files to the new machine. Click the "Save Ratings" button and it'll create a ratings.xml file. Now when you move the files, move the program and this file as well. Then after you make your new iTunes library, run it again and click the "Restore Ratings" button. Voila, all your information is back in the Library. Well, most of it anyway, it's not perfect. It'll tell you what songs it couldn't figure out though, and there's usually not very many.”

Older versions of iTunes to download

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to find older versions of iTunes to download in the official apple website. I have given up trying to get 10.5.3 to work, which means I probably won't be able to sync my iPad2. I want to download Version 10.0. I have found several non-apple sites, but I worry about using them.

in iTunes 9 and 10 I had the ability to have one vertical column with libraries and playlists, another with all the artists, another with their specfic albums and then all the song information all on one screen, like this:
in iTunes 11 I am stuck with the browser up top with a split horizontal screen, like this:
or I have to switch between the categories "artists" and "songs" to get the same information as you pointed out, but I can't up to this point get it all on one screen.

Installing older version of iTunes

I am trying to install an older version of Itunes and am getting the following error: The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. I have tried renaming the file, deleted the folder iTunes in my documents/my music (didn't have anything in it anyway), uninstalled and reinstalled but still get the same error. I have searched my machine and can not find any hint of the file. Help!

the following post might be of some help with that:

I would like to download an older version of iTunes for a 32-bit operating system, how can I do this?

I would like to download an older version of iTunes for Windows Vista which has a 32-bit operating system. Any suggestions on how I can do this?

Hi JNPhillips1,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Visit the main iTunes download page from your computer, and you should see the 32-bit download "iTunes 11.0.5 for Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7:"

What is the best older version of iTunes for Front Row?

Can anyone share some opinions please on which older version of itunes I should download that has the least amount of bugs when using "front row" (I currently have 9.0.3 and Mac OS X 10.5.8)? . Also, should I download the regular version or the 64-bit version? What's the difference/advantage between the two?
Many-many thanks in advance.

I am right up there with iTunes biggest proponents, and try and to recruit anyone who will listen...
I've got about 75 "complete season" Television DVDs, and it was really time consuming to decide which series and episode I wanted to watch by pulling out a box, reading each episode summary that came with the DVD, then take it out of the box, insert it, view it, put it back etc. etc....all for one episode!
Then I heard about adding video files to iTunes and viewing them via Front Row (or iTunes)...couldn't wait to try it. Was totally won over by Front Row's little opening fanfare and the look of the table of contents/episode screen etc. Every feature worked fine.
Since downloading 9.0.3 (from either 9.0 or 9.1) however, I inherited that scrolling issue were it skips and jumps to the last TV Show played or occasionally a random episode, and keeps reverting to that one as well. With my previous version, that scrolling issue appeared, but only several times in about a 3 month daily viewing period then stopped doing that altogether. With that version of iTunes, it seemed to stop after I held the up and down buttons on the remote and let it rapidly scroll up and down (from top to bottom) throughout that particular series. That doesn't work now, and even scrolling up and down/back and fourth, full speed ahead, I can see it semi-pause for a split second on a specific episode. This now became constant problem.
Now a newer problem. I had some misc. TV shows that were catalogued in iTunes as Misc., which front row correctly displayed as such and were properly filed in it's own iTunes folder. I tried to rename that folder, and since then, the iTunes window displays the new name correctly, but Front Row doesn't. I tried dragging that folder to the desktop, creating a new one in the iTunes folder, then dragging those desktop files (sans folder) into the new one and it's still back to square one! I've got about 840 TV shows, with 145 GB of free space remaining.
Again, thanks all for your help.

You appear to have an iPhone 5. Snipsnap 2.4.2, the current version, says it works on iPhone 5, iOS 5.0 or later. Why do you want an out of date version of the app?

When updating to itune 10.5 I get this error message ,older version of bonjour can not be removed, and older version of apple mobile support cannot be removed, any one know how to fix this.

When updating to itune 10.5 I get this error message ,older version of bonjour can not be removed, and older version of apple mobile support cannot be removed, any one know how to fix this.

1) The older version of Bonjour can not be removed. Contact your technical support group.
Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

Compile for older versions

Hi,
I did some code and when trying to run the jar file in another computer i have the problem that the code was compiled in mine with version 1.6 and the other computer has java version 1.5.
Is it possible to compile a jar file for older versions?
Please help,
Rodo.

Here's an example of how flaky the -source and target flags are. This code compiles and runs fine under 1.5 (without flags):
import java.io.*;
public class VersionExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(new File("test.txt"));
        try {
            out.format("%s%n", "woops");
            out.flush();
        } finally {
            closeIt(out);
    static void closeIt (Closeable stream) {
        try {
            stream.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
}Now supply flags -source 1.4 and -target 1.4 and you get one error message:
path...\VersionExample.java:7: cannot find symbol
symbol : method format(java.lang.String,java.lang.String)
location: class java.io.PrintWriter
            out.format("%s%n", "woops");It seems to be noting that format() was introduced in 1.5, right? But what about interface Closeable and constructor PrintWriter(File)? They were introduced in 1.5, too! Yet if you comment out line 7 above, the rest of the code compiles :-(. Odd...
edit: I see what the compiler was choking on: format's use of varargs. If you rewrite the offending line as
out.format("%s%n", new String[]{"woops"});it compiles with flags -source 1.4 -target 1.4 :-(

How can I get the older version of itunes back? I really hate this new one., How can I get the older version of itunes back? I really hate this new one.

I'm having a lot of trouble with this new version of itunes. I never had problems before. Is there a way to get the older version of itunes back so I can be happy once again?

Hi Devorah,
What is it that you are having issues with?
Did you know that you can display the same sidebar you were used to seeing on the old iTunes by clicking on "View" at the top, and then clicking on "Show Sidebar"?
The Songs tab provdes your list of songs that can have the same columns you had on the old Music tab, and you can sort them by any of the categories you have selected for columns.
It may just take a little getting used to. Not sure if you noticed, but the downloading of songs and other purchases is now lightening-fast. That particular trade-off is worth learning some new ways of navigating around. And finding that there are ways to bring back the "look" of the old iTunes was also helpful for me.
Are there particular things which are causing you grief?
Cheers,
GB

Does iOS 7 Support Apps for Older Versions of iOS?

Does iOS 7 support apps for older versions of iOS? This is my first big iOS upgrade so I wanted to be sure about this.

Which is why I said "should" rather than "will". As there are no absolutes, I'm pretty sure there will be an app somewhere that will not run or have issues until its updated to the new iOS.
With that said for the most part there "should" be no issues updating to a new iOS version related to having older unupdated apps, but its still possible that there can be.

Documentation for older versions

Hello there everyone, I have a question relating to
Coldfusion 4.0 and it would be helpful if I could scan the cfdocs
for it. I can see links for CF5 and CFMX at livedocs.macromedia.com
but cannot see anything for older versions.
Does anyone know any other sites that might have this sort of
info, is there an archive of old cfdocs anywhere?
Thank you for any help.
Barry

I don't think Adobe has them anywhere on their site, but you
can probably find them on someone's server, since they used to
install at /cfdocs/ try this:
http://www.google.com/search?q=inurl%3Acfdocs+%22coldfusion+4%22
inurl:cfdocs
"coldfusion 4"

Compatibilty Chart for older versions?

Hi just wondering if anyone knows where to locate compatibilty charts for older versions of WebCenter interaction. Primarily I'd like to know if Plumtree 6.0 SP1 is compatible with Windows Server 2003 SP2?
Thanks.
Edited by: user9526276 on 26-Jul-2009 17:45

Thanks for the response Ryan. I wonder if this is because it was never officially tested with SP2 since it came out way after that release. Does anyone have experience with this? I might try it on our UAT system and keep my fingers crossed.
