If use restore IPOD on itunes, leave new version of OS?
If i press restore on the iTunes said that the data will be lost, I havo no problem with that, but, restore the original OS version?..
I want to use the version that had after the 1.0.3
Apple doesn't host older versions of iPod software, so you would need to have the previous version still on your computer.
Look in "Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates" for previous versions you may have downloaded.
If you have 1.0.2 there you should then delete all other updates from the iTunes/iPod updates folder.
Then prevent iTunes from checking the internet for a new update (preferences/general and remove the check mark from "check for updates automatically) or simply disconnect your modem from the computer.
Then either update or restore the iPod.
You should then be asked if you want to use the previous version of the iPod software.

I have an ipod mini. My computer crashed and no longer have software. Can I still use my mini to go into itunes and buy music? I have a new computer, windows 7. Thanks.
Yes, you should still be able to use your iPod Mini on your new Windows 7 PC. Simply download iTunes from Apple's website and you should be good to go. You don't need the original software that came with it anymore as it's now bundled with the iTunes application.

I have first iPod touch, but can't after restore can't reinstall some apps I bought because they have been updated in iTunes to newer versions? I am giving this to my grandchildren and their favorite game Skee-Ball updated and now can't reinstall on iPod touch.
If you still have the apps on the iPod you can delete them from the computer and then transfer the apps from the iPod t the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
Next would be to look in your computer backups file for a version of the apps that works with the iOS on the iPod.
Otherwise you are out of luck. -
how to transfer file from ipod touch to i tunes. i have files in my ipod , ut itunes is new so its telling if u sync the ipod all the files will be replaced but no files in the itunes.. so kindly help me how to transfer the files from i pod to itunes......
Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

after I download Itunes, when trying to sync Ipod, message says "needs newer version of mobile support, uninstall Itunes, and reinstall Itunes, and the same process starts all over again. why is that?
Try removing and then reinstalling the Apple software using these instructions.
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
The above containes a link for XP. Also. make sure you install the correct Apple software, It comes in 32 and 64 bit and you need the one that is the same as the computer OS -
I am trying to update an old version of itunes, my computer says it took place, but when I try to sync my daughters new ipod it says a newer version if itunes is required?
In iTunes, look at Help/About iTunes and as the screen rolls up, check for the version number. Ignore the bit that says iTunes 10 in massive bold lettering, wait for the smaller text to appear as the it rolls up. The latest version (on 15th April 2012) is iTunes 10.6.1.7 and the text you should see will simply state iTunes 10.6.1.7. Underneath that will be "gumpf" about copyright etc.
If your iTunes does not say this, then something must have gone wrong with the update you did. How did you do it? The usual way is to simply select (in your iTunes), Help/Check for Updates. In my case, the return message I see states This version of iTunes (10.6.1) is the current version. The alternative message will state something like "there is a later version of iTunes available, do you wish to download it" or similar. Selecting "Yes" would begin the download and if you leave it to run itself, the update should take effect, providing you don't stop it or (I guess) keep iTunes so busy it cannot run the update. It may need to close and re-open before the change takes effect.
At a guess, the reason your daughter's iPod is saying it requires a newer version of itunes is either because you've just bought it, and you have a fairly old version of iTunes - AH!, that may be the problem. >>
>> If the version of iTunes you had installed was very old, then the update may have updated to something other than the latest version. So even if the update has taken place, if it only updated from, for example, iTunes 8 to iTunes 9, then it may need a further update to get to version 10 or to 10.6.1. So for you, now, check after update for the version your iTunes thinks it is until it states iTunes 10.6.1.7.
Alternatively, if your daughter's iPod has been Synced with another computer (with a later version of iTunes than yours, even by one increment), then that would cause then issue you currently have, because her iPod will now only want to work the the latest version it has previously done business with, not your old version.
Note; the current version of iTunes as I've stated it, may change any day. Apple do not announce when updates will be released. Uisng Help/Check for Updates and seeing the return message This version of iTunes (10.6.1) is the current version is the only sure way of telling that you are up to date.
Additional note; gumpf = slang for "random junk".
Let us know how you get on. -

My HDD crashed in my old PC and I built a new system. iTunes won't let me sync the music from my iPod back into the new version of iTunes I had to download. How do I fix?
Syncing music via iTunes is only one way: from iTunes to your iPod. If you need to copy the music from your iPod back to your PC, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to do this.

Pretty sure there never was iTunes 4.2.1 and if there was, it did not work with the iPod touch (any version).
Do you mean iOS 4.2.1?
new version doesn't sync with my ipod :/

Trying to restore ipod but itunes says no internet connection.
Trying to restore ipod but itunes says no internet connection. Uninstalled and re-installed itunes but still have same problem. Trying to restore because I uploaded songs from Yahoo music jukebox to ipod but they won't play. They are listed as "other" and I can not access them to delete or play. Tried to delete through music jukebox but now it say " error reading content" so I figure restoring ipod is the only way to fix problem.
Does this help?

ITunes requires new version of Apple Mobile Device Support....
Hi - I have just bought an iPod touch. I a;ready have a classic and a nano but as iTunes 9 was out I thought I'd upgrade to that before syncing the new Touch. However now I get the error:-
iTunes requires new version of Apple Mobile Device Support. Please uninstall both Apple Mobile Device Support and iTunes, then install iTunes agan.
So I did this following the procedure on the Apple Suport pages which referenced exactly this error message but from an earlier version (7 I think) of iTunes).
Basically, I used control panel to uninstall all the bits (including iTunes, Apple MDS, Quicktime and Bonjour) in the order it says. Rebooted, checked that program folders and files had really gone, downloaded a fresh copy of iTunes and installed - exactly the same error.
My Classic syncs fine. The Touch also syncs fine on a laptop I have on which I have iTunes 9.01 at the moment. The Touch is being detected because I get the USB conect sound and the error message in iTunes pops up as soon as it is connected.
The Apple Mobile Device Service is running (it was not running when I checked staright after the install, but I manually started it (it is set ot Auto start)) using .exe version 2.12.36.0
PC is a Windows Vista 64 running iTunes 9.02. The iTunes pack I downloaded was called iTunes64Setup so I'm guessing its the right one.
I always seem to be tearing my hair out when I get a new iPod or new iTunes. Not much left now so has anyone got any ideas?
Thanks very much,
StuartFound the solution in my case. I followed the Apple uninstall procedure again:-
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
and found that the Apple Mobile Device Support did not uninstall properly. I needed to download an MS utility called Windows Installer Cleaup Utility
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
(there was a post somewhere on here about it so thanks to that person).
When I rebooted, I found however that the Mobile Device Service was still installed and running and the installed files were present in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple.
So I Stopped the service (Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services, Right click on the service and choose Properties, then click Stop. For good measure I also set it to Disabled (overkill) using the dropdown which will probably say Automatic when you look at it.
Then I found a Microsoft utility called SC.exe which is available in the Windows resource kit and can also be found here:-
http://www.petri.co.il/downloadfree_reskittools.htm
This is a command line tool, but easy to use. Unzip the sc.zip file, place sc.exe somewhere handy where you can find it from a command prompt and then open a command line (Start, Run..., type "cmd" Enter). Go to the folder where you put sc.exe and type the command:-
sc delete "Apple Mobile Device" (you need the quotes).
This deletes the service from the services list in the registry (you can check by closing the Services box and opening it again).
Now go to c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files and delete the folder and subfolders called Apple.
OK - should have given your system a full clean out.
Then reinstall iTunes.
That was easy - but I guess I can forgive Apple for not being able to upgrade a version of iTunes without messing up - it's only version 9.0 after all, I'm sure it'll be OK in the next release. Seems like they're learning some tricks from Microsoft.
You folks in the US and Canada are luck however because you can get some help with this stuff. There's no help from Apple if you're in the UK. -

See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-no-longer-works-mac-os-10-4-or-powerpc
Since you have a Intel Mac, if you can upgrade to OSX 10.5.x then you may be able to use more current releases.
jscher2000, You should link to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html for 3.6.28 since the ftp is not mirrored.
