I cant open iTunes on 10.4.6. How can I upgrade?

I have downloaded iTunes on to my Mac, but when I try to open it I get a message that says I need OS X 10.4.9 or higher. I have 10.4.6. I have tried to download the updates from the apple site, where 10.4.11 is mentioned. This took over 3 hours but when I click on 'system start up disc' it still shows I am using version 10.4.6. There is no option to switch to 10.4.11. Please can any one help? I am so excited to use my iTouch but need to link it to my Mac!

Your best best would be to download the 'combo updater'
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10411comboupdateppc.html
Double-click it and follow the instructions: if possible it's best to do an 'Archive and Install', which will install a new System folder and retain the old one from which you will need to copy over any additions you have made. Please read this tech note carefully before proceeding:

also this one

to make sure you understand what is going to happen before you start.

  • I attempted to install an update to my iTunes and got a "C   Runtime Error" message. Now when I attempt to open iTunes I get a pop up that says to reinstall iTunes. But I can't open iTunes to reinstall it. How can I reinstall iTunes?

    I received notification of ANOTHER iTunes update being available, so I attempted to install the update on my Toshiba Satellite laptop running Windows Vista. During the update process, two pop-up announced that I had a "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library" Runtime Error, R6034 and another pop-up that states "iTunes" iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. However, I cannot open iTunes. I get the same pop-up telling me to reinstall iTunes.
    I had many songs in my iTunes library that came from sources other than iTunes, mostly my own CDs. Plus, I have nearly $100 credit remaining in the iTunes store. I'm converned I will lose the songs and store credit if I reinstall iTunes. So my questions are:
    1. How can I reinstall iTunes?
    2. If I reinstall it, will I lose my store credit and non-iTunes songs?
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Nothing should be lost... However... it is both Prudent and Recommended that a backup should have been created and maintained.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

    In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced or manually managed with music and video with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
    You need to decide which computer you want to transfer iTunes content and photos from. If this will now be your computer at work, you will need to transfer your iTunes library and your photos from your Mac to your PC. You can transfer your iTunes library from your Mac to your PC at work following the instructions included with this link. This will make the iTunes library on your PC at work identical to your iTunes library on your Mac at the time it is transferred from your Mac. You will also need to authorize your PC at work with your iTunes account with iTunes - the same iTunes account used on your Mac.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.
