Is there a way to copy a downloaded version of iTunes to a diff computer

My friend just bought a new ipod and wants to put music from his itunes onto his new ipod (his current version of itunes is 7.1 or something close to that). However, when he tries to do so, it tells him that he needs to upgrade to the 8.2 version- it won't work otherwise. He has no internet, so he cannot do this. Is there any way for him to download itunes 8 on a different computer and copy it to a jump drive, and then recopy/download it to his computer so he can upgrade his itunes and finally use his ipod? If there is, can someone talk me through the process?
Thank you!

Yes, he can put a copy of the downloaded iTunes installer file (about 74 MB) on a thumb (jump) drive and copy it to his PC and perform the install. It will update his current version to the latest 8.2 version.

  • My Laptop crashed. I had a full backup on Carbonite so the iTunes folder is there and downloadable.  Is there any way just to import that and have iTunes on my new computer (Windows 7) recognize it?

    Nothing gets imported.  Simply restore the ENTIRE iTunes folder to the new/restored computer.
    Download and install iTunes from Apple's website.
    The first time iTunes is launched, assuming the ENTIRE iTunes folder is restored to the correct location, it will launch and be exactly as it was prior to the comptuer issues.  If for some reason this does not work, close iTunes, hold the SHIFT key while launching iTunes and a prompt will appear to choose or create a new iTunes library.  At this point simply point iTunes to the correct location for the existing iTunes library.

  • Is there a way to copy the OS that runs an AppleTV onto a computer?

    Since Apple has discontinued Front Row for the Mac, is there a way to buy or copy the OS/Application that runs an AppleTV and install it on a computer.

    Actually it looks like there is/was one way. I found it on google but I can't guarantee it'll work. It doesn't seem terribly complex either.

  • Is there any way to get an older version of iTunes on my computer? I really dislike the newest version.

    My computer crashed last week. I had to replace it. It was necessary to reinstall iTunes. Of course, the most current version was downloaded. I really dislike it. I can no longer sort my music the way I want it.There is way too much emphasis album art work. It takes too much work to do the same thing older versions were able to do. Crazy as it sounds, I'm looking for a downgrade.
    Does anyone know how to download an older version? I hate to think I'm stuck with the current one. Your suggestions are appreciated.
    Thanks

    because my computer doesn't have the required Service Pack 2
    Then install it.

  • I share a Toshiba Qosmio with my fiance as our 'home' computer, i recently bought an iphone 4, he has a 4s why can i not sync my music to itunes? Is there a way to have 2 seperate accounts on iTunes using the same computer

    My fiance and I share our home laptop, he is awaiting his new Mac arrival.  During this time I have sold my old laptop and used this one, Toshiba Qosmio.  When i plug my iphone 4 into iTunes and try to sync the music, it prompts a window that says if i sync music his, from his iphone 4s will override mine and erase my music.  Isn't there a way I can have 2 seperate accounts or just delete his, as he is getting a new one?  I have tried uninstalling although it still comes up to his account.  TERRIBLY FRUSTRATED!!!!  I am new to the iphone, as we were Droid users prior to this.  Thank you for any help

  • Is there a way to uninstall the new version of itunes?

    The new version of itunes is absolutely awful. I'm wondering if there is a way to uninstall it and reinstall the old version?
    Thanks!

    I dont reccomend downgrading... except as a LAST resort, this is a post I did Because iTunes 11 DID NOT work on my PC with Windows 8... (Im waiting for iTunes12, and the forum responce to see if even that is worth it now)
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4559563?start=0&tstart=0
    I for the most part am not answering any more questions on that thread... and at the part about the .itl file, you will use the one from just before the upgrade to 11. (And dont forget to read my warning)

    Arkaic, here is what you should do:
    <FONT face=Helv size=2>
    - Download and install the latest Creative MediaSource Player/Organizer 3.30.2 from your product download site.
    - Download and install the latest Creative Zen and NOMAD Jukebox plugin 2.00.9 for Creative MediaSource from your product download site.
    - Launch Creative MediaSource Oragnizer.
    - Go to Tools->Settings->PC Music Library and click Properties. Set your preferred folder and file naming convention. Close the setting page.
    - In the Sources window, click to view PC Music Library.
    - Go to View->Right Panel View and select to view your MP3 player.
    - Transfer the tracks from your MP3 player to MediaSource's PC Music Library by clicking the arrow pointing from right to left.
    <FONT face=Helv size=2>
    - If you have updated the track information of the tracks in your MP3 player, the updated track information will also be imported into the PC Music Library database. However, the tags of the files are not updated. Here is what you need to do. Right click the PC Music Library node in the Sources window or right click on any tracks in the PC Music Library window and select "Update Tag". This will update the tag of all the tracks or the selected tracks with the track information as seen in the PC Music Library.<FONT face=Helv size=2><FONT face=Helv size=2><FONT face=Helv size=2>

  • Is there a way to get an older version of iTunes?

    I am unable to download iTunes 7.6 because my computer doesn't have the required Service Pack 2. Is there either a way to download that or an older iTunes version that doesn't require that?
    I've tried downloading the Service Pack but i'm not able to. It just leads me to a FAQ page to find out what the problem is.

  • Is there a way to copy an ical calendar and then re enter it in ical at a later date?

    is there a way to copy an ical calendar and then re enter it in ical at a later date?  i am trying to copy my workout calendar and move it forward but i want to keep the one from june july and august of this year.  I guess techinically it is a recurring calendar but all the exercises recur at different intervals

    If you want to share albums on dropbox or similar web services, set the album in your custom order and use the export command to a temporary folder on your computer. To keep the sort order, use the option to rename with a common starting text string plus an order number. Since you'll upload those files to Internet, also use the resizing feature to export in a reasonable size, not too big for uploading/downloading, and not too small if you want your relatives to able to print and not only to view.
    So, you'll get a folder ready to upload and share via Dropbox or another Web service.

  • We have two iPod touch 2nd generations, one had to be restored a few days ago and is now not able to have some of the apps back on it saying that they are incompatible with the iPod. Is there any way to "copy" the apps from 1 to the other??

    Is there any way to get an older version of the app that can be compatible or to "copy" the app from one iPod to the other?
    Or maybe to update the opperating system??

    you can by downloading iTunes to your computer/laptop but before plugging it in to the computer make sure all of your apps are on it then just sync the restored iPod to your computer and all of the apps on the computer will go to your iPod.. Good Luck

    Thank you for any help

    (I think the daughter got he better end of the deal!)   I believe if you change the password and user id one of the devices it will stop that from occurring. But I'm not the one to tell you how to do it; someone like "Illaass" (Illaass seems to know how to correct / fix almost anything!) will know how if you don't. Just look for the "cat" icon.

  • Is there a way to copy & paste a clip from the timeline in one project in to another project?

    Hello Popular Premiere Pontificaters,
    I am using Premiere 6 on a Windows 7 machine.
    Is there a way to copy and paste a clip from the timeline in one project in to another project?... I can copy my clip, but when I open the other project, it will not allow me to paste it in there... but I am able to copy and paste a clip within a single project.  I tried everything... pasting in to a new video track and pasting in to an existing video track in the second project, but the paste option simply isn't there when I open the second project.
    And if Premiere itself will not allow me to do this in any way, will a copy-paste clipboard type of accessory app allow me to do this?... if so, which is the best, trustworthy copy-paste app that is malware free?
    Thanks,
    digi

    Hi Bill Hunt,
    I just read the page that you provided about "Handles"... thanks allot for that ARTICLE.  In your article and the subsequent article HANDLES, "Transitions Overview: applying transitions" linked from your article, it indicates (in PrE and PrPro anyway - I'm in Premiere 6) that transitions can be applied to non-Video 1 tracks... the paragraph below is a quote from that "Transitions Overview: applying transitions" article...
    "Whatever is below the transition in a Timeline panel appears in the transparent portion of the transition (the portion of the effect that would display frames from the adjacent clip in a two-sided transition). If the clip is on Video 1 or has no clips beneath it, the transparent portions display black. If the clip is on a track above another clip, the lower clip is shown through the transition, making it look like a double-sided transition."
    So this indicates that transitions can be applied to non-Video 1 tracks since it is referring to content in tracks beneath a transparent fade that would show through... and only non-Video 1 tracks can be transparent and have other clips "beneath" them in the timeline, right?
    In the screenshot sample in your article at this LINK, I see the handles (referred to as B and E) and I can see in my monitor window how those handles would be represented by the two little bracket symbols {  }  ... you can see how they appear in my monitor window in Premiere 6 in this screenshot, and below, from a different thread that isn't related to this topic.
    But I'm still trying to figure out how the handles can be applied in the non-Video 1 tracks in the timeline to insert a transition (cross-dissolve) between two clips.
    Can you advise me on this?... I posted a separate thread HERE on this topic, but I haven't got any further with finding an answer.
    Thanks so much for your article,
    digi

  • Is there a way to copy referenced video clips into the iMovie library?

    When I import video clips into an iMovie event it seems that iMovie uses only a reference to the file. When files are moved things get horrible broken soon. I noticed that iMovie does actually copy video clips into your library when you convert your library from iMovie'11 to iMovie'13. Is there a way to copy video clips into the iMovie library when importing them so that they don't get lost?
