HT1338 My iTunes won't let me connect my iPhone because it says I need an updated iTunes, but when I try to download the new iTunes, it says that my Mac software (10.5.8) is too old. However, there are no software updates available. What can I do?

It depends on what iPhone you have.
If it's an iPhone 4S or earlier, click here.
If it's an iPhone 5, you need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, and that requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB RAM.

I want to sync music from my PowerBook G4 to my Ipod Generation 7 but it says i need to update the Powerbook but the Powerbook says there is no updates plus i need to update Itunes but its not working.

I want to Sync music from my PowerBook 4 to my Ipod generation 7 but it says I need to update Itunes to 10.7 but when it finishes updating and i go back to itunes nothing has changed and Itunes is not updated.

In order to install iTunes 10.7 or later you need OSX 10.6.8 or later. A PowerBook can install up to OSX 10.5.8
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but any new iPod won't sync with iTunes on Mac not using an Intel processor.

I purchased the new gen 7 ipod nano and needed to update itunes to 10.7 but my current software says its up to date and won't download 10.6.8 Currently I have 10.5.8 Why won't this update?

The first generation Intel-based Mac's were released in January 2006.
Snow Leopard requires an Intel processor:
General requirements
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
If you go to the Apple menu & "About this Mac" this will tell you what type of processor you have:

Since it told me to update, I updated to 10.7.
Then when I plugged in the phone again, it gave the same message that I need to update itunes.

Hi conor1221!
You will probably want to download the newest version of iTunes (iTunes 11.1) directly from Apple and install it on your computer if you are having issues updating. The link for the download can be found here:

Do I need to update iTunes?

I have iTunes 9.1 that is running fine with my 3rd generation iPod touch.
If I buy the new 4th generation ipod touch, will it sync with my existing iTunes program, or do I need to update iTunes?
I read all the grief and problems people have in updating iTunes from 9.1 to 10 and I'd rather not if it's not necessary.
Thanks.

"I was just about ready to pull the trigger on buying a new ipod Touch, but then thought that with all the problems people have posted about upgrading itunes, maybe that wasn't the best idea. Every upgrade seems to have issues, and break things....
This is a support forum designed for people with problems, so naturally you will see problems here. Just as you will see many sick people in the hospital.
Most never have an issue. I have never had a problem nor has anyone I know.
"Maybe I should just install a new iTunes on a completely separate computer... but then I wouldn't be able to transfer apps from the old touch to the new one..... oh well....."
You can certainly move your apps to a new computer or redownload them.
Use your backup copy to move everything over or plug in your ipod to the new computer, do not sync, then click File>Transfer Purchases
You can also redownload them:

HT2305 Hi! I am trying to update my ipad 4 but it says I need an updated itunes and I just keep going around in circles. Can anyone help?

I am trying to update my first generation ipad and I keep going in circles. Can anyone offer a suggestion?

First gen iPad or 4th gen iPad?
first gen iPads max out at iOS 5.1.1
If your 4th gen says you need an updated iTunes then it's talking about the iTunes on your comptuer. For iOS7 you need at least iTunes 11

Need to update to Itunes 11.1 and also need to update my OSX from 10.5.8 to a higher version to support itunes 11.1.

I'm about to hulk out guys! Brand new iPhone 5 and need to update iTunes for recognition. Keep getting "the installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail." Can anyone help? I may smash something very soon.

iTunes:
AppName: itunes.exe
AppVer: 10.5.0.142
ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0
Offset: 001be6f6
Quicktime:
EventType : BEX
P1 : QuickTimePlayer.exe
P2 : 7.71.80.42
P3 : 4ea5c6ef
P4 : QuickTimePlayer.dll
P5 : 7.71.80.42
P6 : 4ea5c6d5
P7 : 00005b6d
P8 : c0000409
P9 : 00000000
That's consistent with another application (other than QuickTime) having dropped old QuickTime componentry in non-standard locations on the PC.
So we'll go looking for the older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
First we'll need to change some view options on the PC.
1. Open My Computer from the desktop or Start menu.
2. In the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected, and the "Hide extensions for known file types" option is unchecked.
5. Click OK.
Now in My Computer, open your C drive.
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "system32" folder.
What files and/or folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the file/folder name? (In a standard installation of QuickTime, you should see precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

Cannot connect to; Software Update, iTunes or the Mac App Store.

I updated to Lion on launch day and had problems with Software Update, iTunes and the Mac App Store connecting to the internet.
I was completely connected to the interent, so people told me to wait it out as the servers were probably struggling.
However, it's been two weeks and I still get this message:
It's the same with iTunes as well as the mac app store.
I'm at a loss as I can't update my computer.
Anyone else have the same problem?

same problem here
This solution work fine with me :
1. Systems Preferences -> Network
2. Under "Wi-Fi", click on the "Advanced" button.
3. Under the "DNS" tab, add the Google Public DNS - 8.8.8.8
4. Click OK, then click Apply.
5. Turn WiFi OFF, then turn it back ON again.

Hi, Jennifer.
First, try resetting the device. The first article will walk you through this process. I am unsure which iPod nano you have so I will include the basic article. From there, select your version for troubleshooting steps.
