My Question as i have read is if i download the new 10.5.6 version, will i loose my music that is on my laptop at th moment.
I have read a view peoples comments and am a little concerned
Does anyone know - is it safe to just install and update

  • Have an older 17 MacBook Pro, running OS 10.5.8. Software update says everyting is current. Just bought new iPhone 5S. Mac won't recognize phone, says I need newer version of iTunes. Have no problem with computer recognizing old phone or iPad.

    Have an older 17 MacBook Pro, running OS 10.5.8. Software update says everyting is current. Mac doesn't have iCloud, preferences still shows MobileMe. Just bought new iPhone 5S. Mac won't recognize phone, says I need newer version of iTunes. Have no problem with computer recognizing old phone 3 or 1-1/2 year old iPad. I suspect I need to update OS, but as software update isn't telling me to do so, can I? What version would I need to go to?

    Your MacBook Pro can be updated to run Mac OS X "Snow Leopard". Buy it. That will enable you to run the latest iTunes version.

  • I am a new iPad owner with Mac OS 10.4.11. Currently I have iTunes 9.2.1. What do I need to do to be able to sync my iPod settings in iTunes to my iPad? The  newest version of iTunes says I can't install since it requires 10.5 or later.

    Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
    If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
    MB427Z/A  Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
    MB576Z/A  Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
    MB021Z/A  Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)

    You need to update itunes on the computer not the ipad.

    Someone could assit me on this particular issue?
    regards

    When you open the application you will have the opportunity to select software update.
    You can also go to the App store and check under Purchases and Updates and if the update still does no appear select Store > Check for unfinished downloads.  
    Having said all that, please do think carefully before you do upgrade. For a great many users the latest version has been a bitter disaapointment (see various other discussions here), as it has lost considerable functionality in the drive to ensure compatitbility with iOS.

  • I have an error message when connecting my ipad to my laptop suggesting I need 64bit version of itunes. After repeatedly downloading and reinstalling Im still getting the same message. Any suggestions please?

    When connecting my ipad mini to my lap top I keep getting an error message sugesting I need to install 64bit version of Itunes. I have done this repeatedly but the same message keeps recurring. Cananyone help? Thanks

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Need older version of itunes

    I lost my Itunes when I installed a new Hard drive and my macbook is too old to install the OS, so the new Itunes 10 will not install.  I am having a hard time finding a link to an older version of itunes... How can I find this?

    You need iTunes 9.2.1 if you're using 10.4.11 and iTunes 10.6.3 if you're using 10.5.8.

  • HT1386 Syncing iPad/PC using latest version of iTunes

    Syncing iPad and a PC using The latest version of iTunes -- iTunes doesn't show DEVICE icon on the top message bar anymore.

    With iTunes running on your PC, check the upper left hand corner.  Do you see "File, Edit, View, etc."?  If so, click view and "show side bar".  If not, see if in the extreme upper left corner there is a 1/2 shaded box.  Click on "show menu bar", then choose view and show side bar.  You should see your device on the left hand side of the page.

  • I need a version of itunes that will work on my powerbook G4?

    I tried the latest version of itunes and my powerbook does not support it.  Love itunes- what version works on older powerbooks?

    Depends the age of the Powerbook, and your operating system.
    Powerbook G4 867 Mhz or higher can run Mac OS X 10.5 to 10.5.8, but do not support Classic when doing so.
    Depending on the age, they may support booting into Mac OS 9 while maintaining Mac OS X 10.5.8.
    This link explains what versions of iTunes work with what Mac OS X versions.
    iTunes for 10.4 & 10.5 is here.
    A newer version for 10.5 only is here.
    Older versions may be found here.

  • HT1386 Hi, I have an old powermac G4 laptop running OS X 10.5.8, can I sync my ipad mini with the version of itunes running on it?

    Hi
    I have a powerbook G4 laptop, A1095 running OSX 10.5.8
    Can I sync my ipad mini with the itunes I have installed?
    Regards
    Gavin

    Yes ... with regard to syncing. Actually, you need to be running OS X 10.6.8. This is copied from the iPad Mini tech specs website.
    Apple ID (required for some features)
    Internet access6
    Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
    Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
    PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 2 or later
    Download iTunes at www.itunes.com/download
