Hi gnaksung, 
Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities. 
It seems like you're trying to update iTunes 10 on your Mac, but the update options are not working. 
You may find the troubleshooting tips and download method in this article helpful with updating iTunes:
Troubleshooting iTunes installation on Mac OS X - Apple Support
If you're currently using OS X 10.6.8, see this link for the iTunes 11.4 download, which is the latest version that can be installed:
iTunes 11.4 for OS X 10.6
Sincerely,
Jeremy

  • Have Windows 7 and iTunes 10.7 but cannot get iTunes to launch.  No error codes when click "open" and never does.  Have uninstalled and re-installed several times.

    Using Windows 7 and iTunes 10.7.  Cannot launch iTunes - click "Open" and get no error but program won't open. Have uninstalled and reinstalled several times.

    Can you check something for me please?
    Restart your PC. after the PC restarts, bring up your Task manager, and go to the "Processes" tab. Click "Image name" to sort the processes alphabetically.
    Now try to launch iTunes.
    Does an itunes.exe process appear? If so, does it vanish after a second or so, or does it persist in the Processes tab (even though iTunes itself never shows up)?

  • On update to 4.0 Firefox locked up while checking for compatability of applications and will not load.

    I have HP a6620f, Vista, 64 bit, 2.5 GHz 4.0 GB RAM. Firefox worked great until I upgraded to 4.0 when it locked up while checking for compatability of applications. I have the desktop ikon but firefox will not come up. Task manager shows firefox.exe using 50% of CPU when terying to come up.

    I've since updated manually to 4.0.1, but haven't yet tried the full uninstall version, because I have to export plenty of settings first (and/or manually copy them). Also means I'd have to start from scratch with many customizations in No Script.
    That said, I'll try the 'Safe Mode' option tonight, thank you :-)!
    If I have to uninstall the whole shebang, I'd be more tempted to go back to 3.6.x until a few more of 4's teething problems (e.g. the messy print dialogues, particularly preview, which regularly doesn't even work) have been tackled.
    Thanks-1M! for now - keep you posted.

  • I have all my music on an external hard drive.  It is on iTunes on my old Mac mini, which cannot support the new OS, which in turn means I cannot get iTunes match. I have a new Air. What is the best way to get my music where I want/need it?

    anybody have any idea how I should get that music from the hard drive to the air without having it docked all the time?

    If you have iTunes Match, you don't need to use Home Sharing.
    Can I get that to work through Home Sharing?
    No. iTunes Match gets your music from the cloud. You upload from one computer and you can then downlaod to the other computer.

  • I have ipad mini 2 updated to ios 7.1.2.  Now ipad keeps shutting down and rebooting to the apple logo. I factory reset and redownloaded software in recovery mode.  Still happening.  What else can I do?

    I have ipad mini 32gb.  I updated to IOS 7.1.2. Since then ipad keeps shutting down and rebooting to the apple logo.  It happens so many times I cannot use the ipad.   I have tried factory reset and reinstalled software in recovery mode. Ipad is only 1 1/2 years old and in great condition.  Is there anything else I can do besides soend $200 to fix it?

    Sounds like a hardware issue to me going by the CRC error you mentioned. I'd make a Genius Bar reservation (you'll need your Apple ID) if you have a nearby Apple Store and get it evaluated. The evaluation is free but repair/replacement could incur other charges.

    installed latest update and now i cannot get itunes to load

    I was having major problems too. I ended up completely uninstalling itunes then downloaded it again from http://www.apple.com/itunes/.   If you're using firefox, for some reason itunes will not download and  I  don't know if using googlechrome will also have problems,so just to  be  sure that it will work on your first try, use internet  explorer  when you download itunes. Hope this helps...

    Try b noir's post  Standalone Apple Application Support install to see if that can repair the problem or provide futher information, otherwise try reinstalling again as shown in Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.

  • I cannot get Itunes to update my IPod.  I am at a loss

    I am a seasoned IPod user. I just transitioned to a new PC and cannot get Itunes to update my Nano IPod. I have downloaded new versions of ITunes and updated my IPod software. ITunes sees the IPod but does not transfer any songs or playlists---help

    What the user before me is trying to say pretty quickly is, Be sure that the settings in iTunes are set to update your iPod.
    1) Plug in your ipod
    2) Click the button with the ipod on it, about fourth from the right at the bottom (bottom right corner)
    3) Manual (choice 3) is probably selected, Select automatically update all songs instead (choice 1).
    Does this help? If not, let me know.

    I get a message "The Itunes server could not be contacted, check your internet connection" when trying to check for Ipod Nano software updates. I have a 1st generation Nano and haven't updated the software for a while. My internet connection is working. Was thre a change in the internet address for NANO software updates? Do I have to reconfigure something in Itunes to point to the correct address?

    What version of iTunes are you using?  The latest is 10.6.3. In iTunes, choose Help -> About iTunes to check the version number. If it's lower than 10.6.3, download the latest version from here.

  • I cannot open pages on my MacBookPro. I get a message to update it. In my software update in the apple menu drop down, it shows no updates at this time. I have iWork '09.

    I cannot open pages on my MacBookPro. I get a message to update it. In my software update in the apple menu drop down, it shows no updates at this time. I have iWork '09.

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5.1 files can not be opened in Pages 5.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed over 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs, including files that refuse rto open:

  • We own 5 Apple devices but for some reason I cannot get iTunes to recognize one of the iPads.  The other 4 show up just fine and we can sync and do all the stuff we are supposed to do, but this one device is never recognized.  Tried everything.  Help!

    We own 5 Apple devices but for some reason I cannot get iTunes to recognize one of the iPads.  The other 4 show up just fine and we can sync and do all the stuff we are supposed to do, but this one device is never recognized.  I've tried updating the software, reinstalling iTunes, using different ports on the laptop, different cables...just about everything.  I have NEVER been able to connect this one device, but all the others are fine.  I'm at my wits end.  Is there someone out there who can help a relative novice figure out what's going on?  Thanks so much!

  • Cannot get iTunes 12.0 to install with OS 10.10

    i have 2009 iMac with 4GB memory 3.06ghz intel core 2 duo.  i have updated OS to Yosemite two day ago.  i cannot get iTunes 12 to install.  the dmg downloads and i go through the process of installation and get the install completed successfully.  cannot find iTunes anywhere on computer   i have tried restarting after install and still no iTunes

    You can find iTunes in three places:
    In the Dock, between FaceTime and iBooks icons.
    In Launchpad: open it and you will find the iTunes icon.
    In Finder: open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and open iTunes.
    Note that iTunes may show up with the old icon the first time you open it, but it will be updated. Note that the latest iTunes version is 12.0.1, so if you do not have this version, open the Mac App Store, go to Updates and install the most recent version
