I'm trying to download updates to iTunes but it's downloading to an external drive that doesn't exist - how do I change the file download path?

error message says "Invalid Drive"

Perhaps try the following user tip with that one:
"Invalid Drive X:\" install errors

    There isn't a feature in Adobe Send for setting and end-date for a file's availability. At any time, you can Unshare the file, however.

  • I am trying to update my apps but my Apple id is an old one that isn't active,  How do I delete the old apple id and use the new id which is my current email address

    I am trying to update my apps and get new apps but my apple ID listed is an old inactive email address.  How do I change it to my new email address?  The new email address is in settings and is on my apple account.  The only place the old one shows up is in the apps store - installing and updating.  What do I do?

    Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them whether you are using the Apple ID for new purchases or not.  All future updates will require the password for this original Apple ID.  This can't be changed.  The only way to stop this would be to delete these apps from your phone and iTunes library and repurchase them using your current ID.

  • How do I change the podcast download time?

    How do I change the podcast download time in Windows XP? It looks like the default is set to 6:57 p.m. Pacific time. I don't see anything about this in the preferences -- just whether or not I want it to download daily, weekly, never, et cetera.
    Thanks in advance

    I'm trying to purchase music from iTunes but it is asking me security questions that I've never had to use before and I don't remember the answer. Has anyone else and issue with this and know what I could do to fix this?

    Click here for information. If the option to have the answers emailed to you isn't available or doesn't work(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section of that article.

  • How do I update apps under an old apple id email that doesn't exist anymore and have forgotten the password?

    I want to update some apps on my iphone but can't because it's asking for an old apple id email that doesn't exist anymore and I have forgotten the password for it!
    Help!!!

    The apple id login is never deleted. The emaill address itself can be disabled or not in use any longer. The apple id login will still be available to you. If you will go to the website My Apple Id
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    and use the listed apple id login that your apps are asking for to update - once you have changed the password at the lsted website you then will be able to update using the old apple id once you have logged into the device using the old apple id and password.
    Good luck.

    All music downloads from the iTunes Store come in AAC format.  There is no choice.
    You can do either of the following:
    Buy the AAC and convert it per these instructions: 
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Save a copy of a song in a new file format
    OR
    Purchase your songs from a retailer who sells MP3s, such as Amazon MP3.

  • When I backed up files on my external drive, I inadvertently dragged my itunes library there. Now I can only play songs on my laptop when my external drive is plugged in. How do I get the library back to my computer

    When I was backing up files from my computer to my external drive, I inadvertently dragged my itunes library to the external drive. Now I can only play my library when my external drive is plugged into my computer. How do I get the library location changed back to my computer?

    Your drive was used with a PC and formatted NTFS which is proprietary Microsoft format.
    You need to install a third party program that will read the NTFS format.
    There is various software from PARAGON, Tuxera and NTFS-3G
    When you get the data off and have verified it to be good, reformat the drive either HFS+ for Mac use only, or for Mac and PC use then MSDOS (FAT32) for under 4GB files (best) or exFAT (for larger than 4GB files) is proprietary and Microsoft is appling for a patent, which would likely mean OS X won't be allowed to read it anymore without a licensing fee and you'l have to pay another third party software company to read the format, just like NTFS is.
    The less you have to rely upon third party sources to read your drives the better, this way if you have a issue and need to read the drive on another machine you don't need the software, and a internet connection and a credit card and...and...and...

  • How can I change the file format in iTunes 11?

    It seems the Convert to .. function which was available when right clicking a song is no longer there.  How can you convert an AAC to MP3 for instance?

    Assegai Guy, 
    It is still there but it looks a little different in iTunes 11.  The "Create New Version" command is now in the File menu instead of the Advanced menu.

  • How do I increase the file download speed?

    When downloading outside of firefox, I manage anywhere from 5mb/s to 16mb/s, depending what I am downloading and where from. Yet, when a file has to download from within the browser, it downloads at 1/30th to 1/10th of that if I am lucky. Is there some kind of restriction built in to firefox that I might be able to change or am I just S.O.L?

    Download / upload speeds depend on 3 things.
    * The speed of the ISP
    * The speed of the sender
    * The speed of the receiver
    Since you seem to have decided Firefox is the issue, lets work on that.
    Go to the '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ Mozilla Add-ons Web Page]''' {web link}
    (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for a download manager.
    There are also external programs that can be used.

  • Was able to transfer itunes music from an external drive to a computer, but cannot listen to it without external drive being connected. There are "!" next to the transferred music.

    Was able to transfer itunes music from external drive to computer, but they won't play. There are "!" marks next to all transferred songs and a message reads "Unable to locate songs". How do i get the transferred songs to play without having the external drive connected.

    Select a single song with a broken link, press CTRL+I to Get Info, cancel when asked to locate the track and take a look at the Summary tab. Post back where iTunes is looking for the file. It begins file://localhost
    Where is it really?
    Please post back both paths so that I can make suggestions. Full paths please, exact spellings, you can replace your user name with <User> if needed.

  • HT1311 When trying to install App updates it keeps coming up with other users, yet in settings it is my account that is open.  How do I change the Apple ID to mine?

    PLease help me with the above question

    If some of your apps were purchased using other Apple IDs, you'll need to login to these other IDs in order to update them. If that's not the case, then I don't know what's going on...
