HT1923 It will not let me install iTunes or delete iTunes because I do not have "administrative authority".
It says, "You must be an Administrator to remove this application. To remove this application, you can log on as an Administrator, or contact your technical support group for assistance.". I am logged in as the administrator! What do I do? This is driving me nuts. HELP please and thank you! XD
Try the procedure from the following user tip:
"The administrator has set policies to prevent this installation" error messages when installing iTunes for Windows on Windows Vista and Windows 7 systems

I am installing itunes to a laptop and have not sync device to this lap. It is saying that it must first restore device. The problem is I have over 2000 pictures and don't want to lose them. Now my phone is in restore mode and I don't know what to do. I don't want to proceed and loose these very important photos of family. What do I do to get it out of restore mode? My phone will not allow me to do anything to it at this point. I have the itunes downloaded on the laptop now. When I push the button for the phone it just shows Itunes and plug. I can't even call or open phone up.
Unfortunately... Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
See Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
However... Once you have Recovered your Device...
Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most recent Backup...

Using a computer, other than the one you have regularily been Syncing and Backing up to, was the begining of your issue. -
what does this mean you cant open the application " read before install itunes" because it is not supported on this architecture
Where are you seeing this?
Which computer?
Which OS? iTunes comes preinstalled on all Macs. -
I am trying to install itunes for my mobile, and I keep getting the message "You do not have administrator rights, please contact the system administrator to preform an update." I have it set as adminstrator as the user. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate. Help please?
Thanks, but I've done that several times & it still says I need administraive privileges. I had itunes installed with no problems until I did the latest update. After that it just disappeared, so I tried reinstalling. Now I can't sync my phone. This is so frustrating!

I have a new computer that will not have any web browser installed when I acquire it. So, I cannot download Firefox, say, using Internet Explorer. Can I get a copy of Firefox on a CD and use that instead.
Easiest is to download the full Firefox installer and copy that file to an USB stick.

Such an USB stick is also useful for making backups of your profile data, so if you do not already have one then this is an opportunity to start making backups.

This is strange Case!
We have been authorized to download 40 copies of a VPP app. The price tier is free. We download the app through itunes and load it into configurator. Because the App is free we are not given the option to load the codes which we rightfully own.
The devices we wish to configure will not have internet connectivity in the future and I need to know that the app on them will not expire!
If I load the app with configurator (unsupervised!) will the app expire in a year and be disabled? I cannot have that happen!
Please advise!
Best,

TS1629 my computer is not letting me update itunes because "I'm not the administrator" (which I am)
I've been trying to download the latest version of itunes for a couple days now. Everytime I did it, i twould go almost entirely through the download process and right at the end it would say it couldn't finish because i don't have administrator rights.
Last night I decided to see if I could figure out why it was saying that, if some how my settings were changed.
Everything I found, it looked like I was administrator.... this is my first issue
Also, when trying to figure out the admin thing. I ended up deleting my itunes. I tried to restore my computer and bring it back, but only parts of it came back. So I dont know if I need to completely uninstall itunes to be able to reinstall?
But first I have to figure out the admin thing
ThanksLaunch 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).

Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

A search of the forums would be a good place to start.

When I add a folder to the library, does that mean that 'later' when I drop a new file into that folder (already added) it will automatically end up in iTunes? (or do I have to add file/folder to library every time I have a new file??) I'm using XP...
iTunes does not actively scan the media folders. If you manually add content to a folder, then you must add that content to iTunes manually via the File > Add File/Folder feature.
The only folder that gets scanned is the "Automatically add to iTunes" folder. -
I am deploying to Afghanistan and I will not have wifi access. I will have a hardline access to internet. How do I sync my apps, newsstand, etc without wifi connection?
About the only other way I can think of is to have a computer with you or use one there, if you can put iTunes on it and download all your new stuff to the computer, then sync your iPad to that computer.
In switching computers you will lose previous content, but, as I understand it anyway, downloaded content will be the same as long as the same apple ID is used. -
Can I access a user guide for 5.1.1 while using my iPad?? I will not have the internet for 10 days so would like to download something before I leave!
Download the fee iBooks app from the app store if you don't already have it. Then download the .pdf here: iPad User Guide (For iOS 5.1 Software). Next, import it to your iTunes library (iTunes>File>Add to Library). Then sync it to your iPad by selecting it on the Books tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing your iPad. It will availble in iBooks in the PDFs section (tap Collections on the top left, then tap PDF's).

If I download the newest version of iTunes to my Mac will I lose everything on iTunes from my version i have now
You should lose nothing.
However, this does not change the fact that you should ALWAYS have a backup copy of everything in your computer, including itunes.
You should ALWAYS make sure that your backup copy of your computer is up to date before any update, restore, etc.
