I have a powerbook g4 laptop and I can't install the new itunes 10 because It requires OS 10.51 and I'm running OS 10.41...What is the best way to update to OS 10.51?
I have a PowerBook G4 laptop running OS 10.41. The iTunes store recently required a download to the new iTunes 10, which I downloaded but couldn't install because it require OS 10.5. I only use my computer to surf internet and store music. How can I get iTunes to work so I can purchase music again?
Try using iTunes 9.2.1.

Can I create a "new" iTunes library on an external hard drive and transfer my iTune library to save space on my laptop hard drive
Yes. Just copy all your music to a folder on your external. Then delete the music on your computers hard drive.
It is not quite that simple. If you do that you will end up with many broken links and will have to re-create your library from scratch . iTunes does not like it when you move or rename files or folders and doing so between drives is guaranteed to result in exclamation marks indicating you have broken the links to all your media files.
If you are content with moving the whole library to an external drive (usually the best thing for most people), try:
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library. -
I have lost my iMovie program and I can not install a new one. My computer says that it is not possible to download anything on my main drive
How full is your drive? You need at least 10/15% of free space.

The computer insnt letting me update the new itunes. So i deleted it all and now it ses when i try to download a new one that it cant delet the old itunes ... what could i do
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

I have OS version 4.2.1, but can't download paid-for apps because they require OS 4.3. Also, it said in iTunes that my device was already up to date... Am I going crazy, or is there going to be an update?
I don't know what generation of iPot touch I have. If I am unable to download my paid apps because my iPod is too old, I'm not going to be pleased.
iPod touch, iOS 4.2Sorry, there is no upgrade for your model based on what you've posted. See below:

how do I verify my apple id? I can't sign in to it in mail and I can't make a new one because it just will not process I'm trying to set up iCloud between iPad and iPhone and having ALOT of difficulty pleAse help need it done by later on today!!!!!
In order to use your Apple ID to create an iCloud account, the primary email address associated with the ID must first be verified. To do this, Apple will send a verification email to your account and you must respond to the email by clicking the Verify Now link. Make sure you are check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

Hi,
I recently upgraded to OSX Yosmite and the new iTunes 12.
After upgrading, iTunes no longer responds to the Play/Pause, Forward & Rewind buttons on my keyboard.
I am using iTunes on a Macbook Pro 13" (non-retina version).
Any help to get these buttons to work again would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Rawbex
Edit: I'm also currently re-installing iTunes on my Mac to see if that solves any of the problems I'm experiencing. This includes another issue that has appeared, where Google Play Music no longer recognizes iTunes. (Although, this separate issue will probably have to be solved by Google, not Apple).
Edit 2: Unfortunately, reinstalling iTunes did not solve or fix anything.Hi,
I Found this post that helped me solve the same problem,
I has to do with Google Music taking over the same function keys. I uninstalled Google Music from Chrome, and now the function buttons function.
Media key: Play, Rewind and forward not working with iTunes anymore. Other keys work normally. -
I just recently upgraded from an iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5. I went to plug it in to iTunes to get everything back on to my new phone and it says it cannot do anything until I update to the latest version of iTunes. But, when I go to upgrade my iTunes it says I can't because my mac is a 10.5.8 version and the new iTunes is only avalible for a mac 11.0.3 version. Is there anything I can do or am I simply out of luck?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You have to upgrade Mac OS X. First, open > About this Mac, and tell me what processor you have. If it's a Intel Core Solo, Duo or 2 Duo, you can upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard.
First, buy Mac OS X Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard Make a backup of your files, insert the DVD and upgrade to Snow Leopard. After upgrading, open > Software Update, and install 10.6.8. Finally, open > Software Update, and install the most recent iTunes.
If you want to install iTunes 10.7, download it from this page > http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1576 -
Plese Help. Me have FAT 32 USB, ISO, Boot cam say can't install windows support software because the software update server "(null)" can't be found.
I know there are many other threads, but I guess I couldn't find clear answer to this problem. Is that the Apple's server problem or just me?
I'm trying to install Windows7 via Bootcamp, with FAT 32 formated USB with ISO, on Macbook air 2012.
Thanks!The problem is the encryption and how your notebook handles it rather than a Time Capsule problem. I had similar problems until I updated the WLAN drivers on my IBM T41.
The way I convinced myself it wasn't an Apple problem was to connect my IBM T41, via ethernet, to my AEBSn. I was able to connect to internet so I knew it was a conflict between my wireless card and the AEBSn.
I am now using the WPA2 encryption for the AEBS without issue and connecting many different types of hardware; three iPod Touches, two MSI Wind Netbooks (Win XP SP3), one IBM T41 (Win XP SP2) wirelessly and both my 20" iMac and Dell 8250 Win XP (SP2) by ethernet
The MSI Winds are brand new and they would connect to the AEBSn but couldn't get an IP address from the internet (Limited or No Connectivity error message). The AEBSn was using WEP encryption. After doing a little research I found that WEP was a very common cause of this error message so I switched the AEBSn to WPA2 and everything works fine now.
Don't assume that because you can't connect via OPEN it isn't a encryption issue because my Winds wouldn't connect that way either...it wasn't until I changed to the WPA2 Personal that they connected.
You may also need to change the program that handles the WLAN connection, sometimes Windows handles it better but for the newest addition to our household, the MSI Winds, I am using the Realtek utility that matches the WLAN card and everything is hunky dory...
Finally sometimes firewalls will prevent getting the IP address...doesn't happen often but it has happened to me so I would double-check that by turning off the Windows Firewall and just verify that it isn't the firewall (that's never been a problem with my Apple AEBSn but it was a problem with an older Dlink g model). -
I just downloaded the new itunes so I can sync music to my iphone 5 and when I go to open the new itunes, a message pops up that says "Run time Error, an application has made an attempt to upload this file incorrectly"?
Hello there, tmiller25.

I have no more OS and i can't install a new one
My mac was getting too crowded for me, so on a whim i decided to reset it to the factory settings.
Cmd + R to boot in disk utility thing and deleted OS maverick from my HD. and now for some reason i'm left with 3 partitions on my HD. a 200 GB one with nothing on it. and another 200gb one with nothing on it. both are formatted to MS-DOS (FAT) and 600GB's of unused space.
First thing i tried was to get all back into 1 partition of 1TB. which gives me this message when i try it:
Are you sure you want to partition the disc "hitachi HDe721010SLA330 Media?
These partitions will be erased:
"02"
"Macintosh H"
This partition will be added:
"untitled 1"
WARNING: This disc appears to be set up for boot Camp. if you partition this disc, you may not be able to use it tostart up your computer in windows.
And when i click on partition i get this message:
Partition failed with the error:
Couln't unmount disk.
Then i searched the net on how to unmount disk. all i got was info on how i should boot in another partition and try it the same way, or a little bit otherway in that boot. However , since i do not have any OS on my mac and im unable to install one... that pathway is also closed.
Then i tried to erase either of the partitions (02 and Macintosh H) which doesn't work. just erasing them does nothing. and using secure erase results in the following error: securely erasing data to prevent recovery failed. - why? i don't know!
lastly i tried to boot mac with its original CD. holding C while booting with the disc inside. (it does not start up at all, after a while the disc just slides out again)
To summarize:
I am stuck using Cmd + R to boot my mac. from there i can only do one of 4 things: 1. start up disk utility. 2. search the net. 3. install mavericks OS 4. use time machine.
Disk utility has been futile so far. Can't re-partition my HD or delete the partitions manually. or journal the ms-dos files into mac. (were that the case i would be able to install mavericks on them) But then i would be stuck with a 200GB hd. and since i cant format my hd back into its original 1TB form. its far from optimal.
Searching the net has not been good for me either.
Installing mavericks OS is impossible since the discs i CAN use are not formatted for mac. "this disk is not formatted as Mac OS extended (journaled). Use disk utility to enable journaling or reformat the disk" <- what it says when i click on it. I can't enable journaling or reformat the disk in disk utility, it won't let me.
I have no time machine backup.
Is there a way for me to reset my IMac to its factory settings without using Disk utility or the original disc? or is there any way you can help me? any sugestions are welcome, I am at my wits end
Sincerely,
MichaThe Mac App store requires your computer to be running at least Snow Leopard 10.6.6

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

I have multiple apple phones on one account can i create a new iTunes account for other iphone
I have multiple iphones on one billing account as well as itunes. Can I create a separate itunes account for other iphone?
You don't need to create two separate libraries.
If you want to sync different content onto each device, select the device in iTunes, select the tabs across the top and sync what you want.
To make it easier, create different playlists for each device and sync only those playlists. -
Hi guys. I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 5... Its great, I wanted to test out the new iCloud so I enabled it on first iOS 5 setup.
So now I wanna delete it. So I did. Because my battery just wont work the way it used to on iOS 4.3.5. I guess it tries to connect to the internet so it could auto backup stuff. Well I dont need it. Mainly because I don't want to pay for extra space, and my free 5GB are almost done. Also I rather back it up on my PC.
I deleted my iCloud account but now I can't use FindMyiPhone! When I connect to the app it wont find my phone. When I enabled iCloud again it worked.
So I deleted it again and it stoped working again... I tried to setup a new account via MobileMe "Settings> email blah blah blah" and it didn't work because the account was already assigned to use iCloud only I guess...
What should I do?Its solved I just restored it to that point
