I have Itunes 10.5. How do I back up my library? Earlier versions allowed me to back up to disc.?

Itunes 10.5 does not seem to have an option to backup your library. Am I missing something?

Backup iTunes by copying to an External Drive
Using the same basic concept in the above linked article, the library could be backed up to other media such as CD/DVDs, flash drives, or another computer.
Backing up to CD/DVDs would require "burner" software on the computer and using that software to burn the library to disc.

I tried to install an app from Channel 4 in the UK and got a message that my account would not allow that. Now I appear to be permanently connected to the UK ITunes Store. How to get back to the USA store?

Never mind, after about 20 minutes it switched back by itself.

Sign/log out of your apple account then log back in. It will then allow you to use the US store.

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.
You should now see the App Store icon, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

How do I add to my iTunes backup that I created with Back Up to Disc?

I backed up my library to 16 DVD's a few months ago. I have added 3 or 4 CD's since then to my library, but I'm not sure which ones or exactly how many. I used the Back Up to Disc in iTunes. How do I add the new ones to my backup if I don't know which ones need to be added?

Since you used the iTunes backup feature, there's an option there to back up only this items added since the last backup was made.

WHY DOES ITUNES 11 SUCK? HOW DO YOU CHANGE IT TO AN EARLIER VERSION?

WHOVER MADE ITUNES 11 SHOULD BE FIRED! EVERYTHING IS HARD TO DO AND WHEN YOU TRY TO DOWNLOAD TO AN EARLIER VERSION IT WONT LET YOU BECAUSE IT SAYS THE NEWEST VERSION IS ALREADY INSTALLED AND IF YOU TRY TO DELETE IT FROM YOUR COMPUTER IT WONT LET BECAUSE ITS PART OF THE OPERATIONS SYSTEM. THINK IM JUST GOING TO USE SERATO

First impressions:
All uppercase letters are hard to read.
You're a bit of a Johnny-come-lately. Most of the fussing about iTunes 12 has already come and gone.
Downgrading is relatively easy if you do a backup of your computer immediately before a major software install. If you have not then the computer fussing about removing the application is the least of your worries.
All my references about downgrading are several version old. Do a search of this forum, or even of the web in general, and you will likely encounter many how-to-s on downgrading.
Go ahead and use an alternative. The people responding to you here are just other users like you. Me, I still use iTunes 7.5 from 2007.

You can use iCloud to backup your iPhone to the iCloud servers automatically. Is that what you mean?
Just go to settings -> iCloud
Sign in with your apple I'd and activate iCloud backup.

HT1766 What if an ipad is the only device you have from Apple? How could you back your things up with the cloud ?

Hi my issue is that I dropped my ipad, and the screen is now blue. I have tried pressing the power button and the center button (I even pit it on the charger), but the screen is still blue. My questions are am i covered to get a replacement, and how do I back-up my stuff with the cloud if the ipad is my only apple device?

If you didn't have iCloud backup turned on before you broke it, you are out of luck.
Accidental damage is not covered by warranty.
You can get an out of warranty replacement from Apple for around $250.

How to avoid "The application requires an earlier version of Java. "?

Hello, I deployed a Java applet built like this
javac -source 1.4 -target 1.4 foobar.javaThe reason why I do it this way, is that many public libraries, have computers that only have Java 1.4 installed (and I found one case with 1.3 but decided not to go that far), and the users have no way to upgrade them. Hence if I want to deploy an app that can be used by most everybody, which is the whole idea of Java, then I have to use 1.4, no choice.
OK, now I also have users who have the latest Vista and Firefox. On those computers, they see the following warning when my applet tries to run:
"The application requires an earlier version of Java. Do you want to continue? Run or Cancel The required version of Java, 1.6.0-oem, is not the latest and may not contain the latest security ..."
Of course, after seeing this kind of warning, I am losing a lot of those users immediately. (and by the way, I am built with 1.4, not 1.6-whatever)
This message is widely reported on the Internet and the solution is always similar - some variation of "uninstall and reinstall the latest Java".
This of course is a NON_STARTER. I cannot request my users, to reinstall Java. they won't bother. The whole idea of Java applets, again, is that I write an applet and the user sees it without having to tweak around with their computer.
So I guess my question is: what can I do in my applet, to prevent these messages from happening on Vista, and at the same time be accessible to public lib computers with Java 1.4?
And second rhetorical question: why can't Sun get their act together and deploy a platform where I can just write my code according to their specs and it will run according to their specs, without any warnings to scare away half of my users??? Please Sun tell me.
Mark

Mark.
[1.4 is EOL|http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/] so I suggest you target 1.5.
Youe contention that world should not change because a small proption of near-sighted troglodites insist on wearing frilly collars is complete bunkum. Get over it. Fast.
If ever I get the chance, I shall tell Sun to continue doing exactly what they are doing with regards to developing the core Java language. Hire the best engineers; go forth and prosper; insist on backwards compatability; and never mind the bollocks (here's the sex pistols).
... or maybe one would prefer the MS .NET platform, where no version is at all backwards compatible with any previous one; is supported for just three years; with each CLR occupying a full third of ones modest laptop hard disk?
Be careful what you wish for. You just might get it.

How do i load and use an earlier version of firefox

I need to reject V8 and load an earlier version please?

Hi shutters,
There is a Knowledge Base article called [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]] that should have all the information you need to roll back to an earlier version of Firefox.
Out of curiosity,what is your reason for rolling back? The developers are always interested in hearing about user's experiences with Firefox. You should consider leaving [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/feedback feedback] for them so that they can continue to improve the product.
Hopefully this helps!

How do I import images created in earlier versions of Aperture and saved to DVD as an Aperture library into Aperture 3.2.1?

When I insert the DVD into my MacPro the disk appears as though it is blank, with the little 'burn' icon in the top right
When I insert the DVD into my macbook it shows the full Aperture library structure and when I allow file sharing between the machines the MacPro can also recognises the files
I suspect I am making a basic error somewhere as the images are clearly all there. This doesnt just occur for one DVD, I have dozens that are all perfroming in the same way when I try to import files created in an earlier version of Aperture back into the version I am now using, 3.2.1
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Reiss.

To get the old library into Aperture it will need to be upgrade. To do this you will need to copy the library off the DVD onto our HD and then open Aperture on this library. Aperture should then upgrade the library to the latest version.
