I am having problem with updating my software, I get an error that says I do not have permission. I tried to restore the system but it will not allow me to perform that task either
Ah! The proverbial missing information. Then, CMD+R and reinstall Lion.

when i try to open itunes on my macbook, it says it needs quicktime 7.5.5 to run. how do i update quicktime so i can run itunes?
QuickTime 7.5.5 for Leopard - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL27
QuickTime 7.7 for Leopard - http://support.apple.com/kb/dl761
= New version of Quicktime installed but application reports it needs to have that version installed =
Open Application > Utilities > System Profiler and check the Quicktime version in Frameworks vs. the version in Applications. One person had re-installed their operating system. It had kept the newer Player application but had reverted to an earlier version of the underlying support framework files which many applications utilize. Re-installing Quicktime 7.7 took care of the problem. Do this manually, not with Software Update.
Installation get stuck at "configuring installation" - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2592979?threadID=2592979 - uninstall Quicktime before installing. -
when i try and open itunes a memo pops up saying "itunes could not connect to this iPhone. This device is no longer connected" my iphone is not plugged into my mac so i dont know why its mentioning an iphone nor why i cant open my itunes library?
Each time you connect your iPhone to iTunes, you need to eject it before closing iTunes by clicking on the little "eject" icon shown in iTunes. It seems that sometime in the past, you did not do that.
I'm not sure how to undo the previously done damage, but maybe a reboot of your Mac would help. -

When i try to open itunes i get a message saying itunes is on a locked disk
i cannot open itunes when i try i get a warning message saying that "the folder "Itunes" is on a locked disk or you do not have permission for this folder"
whats the problem???check if you have read & write permissions for your music folder. in finder, right-click on it and get info. unlock the little padlock (you may have to enter your admin password) and change the permission settings. next, click on the little gear-shaped icon and apply to enclosed items like so
the important part is to apply to enclosed items ! -
Ok so I went to update my itunes 9 to itunes 10.5 and now I get and error message "Apple application support was not found" error 2 (windows error 2) when ever I try to run itunes and iv been trying to fix this for like a month and let me tell you iTunes for windows is **** and I really want Icloud for my iphone 4 and yes iv tried uninstalling everything by apple in the correct order and reinstalling them after restart atleast honestly 20 - 30 times but nothing worked so if anyone can please help me I have windows 7 and a hp intel pentium computer
Install 7-Zip (free), or a free trial of WinRAR, and use one of them to extract the contents of the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe installer file, then try installing AppleApplicationSupport.msi as a standalone component. Even if it won't install you may get a more useful error message as to why not.

i have got an old mac book from a relative but i dont know how to upgrade to a later operating system.
i have installed the updates but it keeps coming up i need a more up to date operating sytem ios6??
pleasehelpYour old MacBook series, built between 2006 and 2010, had several
different verions within those years and they do not all accept a later
upgrade to the most newest OS X versions...
These shipped with (early) intel-version Tiger OS X 10.4.x through
Leopard 10.5.x, and early models can use Snow Leopard 10.6.8,
& some can run as late as Lion 10.7.5; or maybe Mavericks 10.9.2.
Hardware limits and system configuration specs determine this.
A supported computer may also need hardware upgrade (RAM)
to run a later OS X system version along with newer software.
•How to identify MacBook models:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1635
•Apple MacBook Specs (ALL MacBook Technical Specs) - everymac.com:
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook/index-macbook.html
The base system upgrade for earliest MacBook 1.1 & MB2.1 past
the original as-shipped Leopard 10.5.x, would be Snow Leopard
10.6 (w/ Combo update to 10.6.8 v.1.1) for Snow Leopard download.
So your MacBook likely has either Leopard or Snow Leopard. If it has
Snow Leopard 10.6.8 installed/updated to last step, then it may be
able to go to the online Mac App Store, App Store, iTunes Store, etc.
You can see if an applicable upgrade past the current OS X system
is available from the Mac App Store. If yours is MacBook1.1 (early)
then highest it may go is Snow Leopard 10.6.8. The later MB2.1
has limited upgrade, and could use Lion OS X 10.7.5 at most.
More recent builds of MacBook, toward the last model year 2010,
can take as new an upgrade as Mavericks OS X 10.9.2. This is
based on build version specs, hardware limitation, and so on.
•Mac OS X - Upgrade - Apple Support:
http://www.apple.com/support/osx/upgrade/
In order to know more about the possibilities, you'd have to supply
more information on your exact MacBook model build year etc.
The "About this Mac" as found under the Apple menu icon is of
some help. Additional info from "More Info" in the next window can
help when System Profiler appears. The hardware specs are there.
Good luck
