HT201442 Im trying to restore my ipone me downloading the newer version of itunes on the computer will it restore it?

I am trying to restore my phone and it is telling me that there is an error. How do i stop this?

Looks like you had installed newer version before, uninstall it - but not completely, and than intalled the older version again.I had this issue before. I had to completly uninstall the newer version through control panel, and than perfom search for itunes for all folders and manually delete all other itunes files. Once all this is done you should be able to install again. Hopefully this will solve the problem.

ITunes worked fine on my Windows 7 machine. Had to rebuild the machine but all the data remains. Downloaded a new version of iTunes and cannot figure out how to load all of my music currently on my hard drive. Tried moving "iTunes Library" file. Did not work. Never had trouble like this before.

Many thanks for your post. I've been trying for days to get this sorted and was getting well fed up with I-Tunes. Really thought i'd never get it working again. Tried un-installing it, loading older versions and they still wouldn't work.
Came across your suggestion by chance and top man - it worked..!!!!
How you even knew what to do is beyond me - but thanks so much. I really was pulling my hair out.
You need to put your post over the Web as there seem to be loads of people having the same trouble.
Thanks again.

If i restore my ipod on a newer version of itunes on another computer, can i still update it on the older version on my computer?

I can't connect to the internet on my computer and i need to restore my ipod so i was going to restore it on another computer, but wasn't sure whether i'd still be able to update it on my computer because I don't want to have to transfer all my music to the other computer?

I need to download a newer version of itunes on my 10 year old mac. I can no longer sync my iphone to my computer itunes without this update. I have tried unsuccessfully 4 times, and have no idea what I am doing wrong. Suggestions anyone?

Tell me how to download a newer version of itunes on my old mac so i can it will sync to my iphone please.

Click here, buy and install the DVD, and then run Software Update twice. If you're actually using Mac OS X Server, you'll need to phone the online Apple Store instead of using the link I posted.

I have a copy of my iTunes data and I'm looking to restore it all back into a new version of iTunes reloaded after a hard drive crash. How do I do this?

After having a hard drive crash, I've reloaded Windows 7 and all of my applications on a new hard drive. I have also downloaded and installed a new version of iTunes on my computer. I now want to restore all of my iTunes tracks, videos, movies, books, podcasts and all my playlists into the new version of iTunes from a back up of all of my previous hard drive before it crashed. I have tried importing the data but iTunes drops all kinds of data (artist names, album names, track number, etc.) and have to now manually go through all of my iTunes data (18,000 tracks) to restore the data. The data consists of a combination of purchased tracks (approx. 6,000) and my own personal CDs copied into iTunes. I need help badly here as I'm lost on how to proceed. Thanks.

Hi Toboggan,
If you are looking to restore your iTunes data from a backup, you may find the following article useful (while it is focused on moving between computers, many of the steps should also apply to your situation):

Trying to download Windows 7 version of ITunes and it is taking a very long time is this normal?*

I have been trying to download Windows 7 version of ITunes to my computer and it seems to be taking a very long time. Is this normal? It has been stuck on 1hr 4mins at 25% for over an hour. Is there an easier way to get Itunes or is this the only way to wait for hours for the download?

It shouldn't take more than a few minutes. Did you download directly from Apple:

Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.

I do not think it included audio books.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

Your friend should not keep someone elses iphone without making every attempt to fget it to the rightful owner.

Hello ashharuddin,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Toggle Airplane mode On and Off.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
Check for a carrier settings update. Tap Settings > General > About. If an update is available, a prompt will appear.
Remove the SIM Card and verify that it is a valid, carrier-manufactured SIM. Also verify that it is not damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
Restore the iPhone.
Have a nice day,

What do I do when I am trying to install my new version of itunes, and it says this: The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured. Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified.

I had this, and after a large number of fruitless attempts, I had to reload Windows, which solved it. This was of course a real pain, but I had to do it since updating iTunes was necessary in order to get the new iOS version. But before doing such a drastic thing, you could try to restore Windows to a previous point in time by picking a restore point. This of course presumes that you really have some issues with your Windows (which I had) and that you can make a decent guess on when the system was ok (which I couldn't), i.e that you can decide a good date to restore to.
