Is there a way to uninstall iTunes 10 and go back to a working version?
I installed iTunes 10 when it came up a couple of days ago, and unfortunately it doesn't work. Specifically, I can apparently no longer connect to the iTunes Store, either through the computer or through the iPod. I haven't yet tried to sync my iPod - I'm afraid something will go wrong there as well.
As far as I can see, I don't have any earlier, working version of the iTunes software on my hard drive, so there's nothing to install in place of the defective version. Are there archives of the earlier versions somewhere that can be used to roll back the installation to something that works?
I'd make sure you uninstall all the associated parts and pieces. The easiest way to do this is to go to programs from the control panel, then sort the list by publisher. Scroll down and start uninstalling - starting with iTunes, then QT, then the remainder. From reading other support and forum articles, it is important to start from scratch. I'd also run a registry cleaner to help improve the outcome (but not required). You can find a 9.2.x iTunes by googling for it. I agree with a previous post on this thread about exporting your library/lists. However, another way to do this is found here - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451. I found this the easiest as if when you first start iTunes 9.2.x, it complains about the iTunes.itl file being created by a newer version of iTunes.

I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there. I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working. Please help.
I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version. I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again. I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again. My blue tooth doesn't work either. I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this. When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue. My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!! I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue. Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it. Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple. -
I have two Macs: an MBA and the new iMac. Is there a way to have iTunes and all the content in it identical on both machines?
Yes you can copy the content to your new machine and use Home Sharing to keep the content identical
Connect the two machines via an ethernet cable it is 3 times faster than Wifi. Turn wifi off on one machine to enforce ethernet connection
In System Preferences, Sharing turn on File Sharing
Then
Copy the music/itunes folder from the Macbook pro to the music/ folder on the imac
Both machines should now have the same library
Disconnect H the ethernet cable
Set up Home Sharing and under Settings at the bottom of the Home Sharing page. Select to transfer new purchases.
Do the same on the other machine.
Then when you r machines are connected by wifi and each time you start itunes it will transfer your new purchases

Is there a way to uninstall Legacy and Compatibility Content after installing with Additional Content?
Hey Antonio,
That's a good suggestion, and it's something that we're already planning on addressing in the next release, probably via a service that you can use to view information about patches and notifications -- not only the ones that were known at the time that you installed, but also ones that might have come into existence since then.
In case you're still looking for the link to that CVI 2009 notification, you can find it here.
By the way, my world cup sympathies to you -- your guys were robbed.

How do I uninstall the latest version of iTunes and go back to the previous version?
That's my question: How do I uninstall the latest version of iTunes and go back to the previous version? I am running 10.6.8, I just uploaded this new "update" version of iTunes and I hate it. I want the old one back. How do I do that?
If you are on Mavericks (your profile says different) and using Pages 5.0 you should have Pages 09 in the Applications > iWork 09 folder.

I have quicktime pro and it does NOT have the screen record mode that Quicktime is suppose to have. Can I uninstall it and go back to an older version that would have screen recording? If so, how? Step by step needed. Thank you for your time.
Did you remove Quicktime X?
On a normal install Quicktime 7 is installed in the Utilities folder and Quicktime Pro in the main Applications folder.
You will need to reinstall OS X to get Quicktime X back if you have deleted it.
I notice yor profile says 10.5.8. Quicktime X is only available on 10.6 and above. -

When trying to download latest version of iTunes, it failed to down load and I got an error message which read
Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exc
R6034
An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the applications support team for more information.
iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 1114)
Tried reinstall, repair as have done this before this did not work, so I uninstalled iTunes then downloaded latest version only to have this not work either.
I had my ipod attached at the time as I was charging it anf now find I can't turn it off?
What is going on with this.Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Is there any way to undo iCloud and go back to mobile me?
iCloud has totally messed up all my contact info. Every time I try to enter new contact info iCloud hiccups and fails to save it. I can only intermittently log in because it's always encountering errors when connecting to the server. Basically, iCloud blows. Is there any way to go back?
It sounds a bit like some kind of widespread prejudice…
No, that's a bit of a naive statement, imo. I've just had a conversation about this on another forum.
I'm with the OP - I wish the take folder thing could be optionally turned off so we could revert to the old pre-8 behaviour.
I had developed a very fast and efficient workflow over years - for example, while a vocalist was recording takes in cycle mode, I would be splitting, colouring, muting, naming, selecting and rejecting phrases as we went.
This is much faster than doing a bunch of takes, and then comping them afterwards.
Unfortunately, this is now no longer possible in LP8, as you cannot do a "create and mute tracks in cycle record" as you could do before (this option still exists in LP8 for MIDI, but not for audio). At least it was, I haven't looked at it again for a while, but I seem to remember it was the case.
Also, quick swipe comping will not let you nudge segments in time, so you have to do your comping, then move the comp to a flattened file, then split and retime when you need to do this. And you certainly cannot comp or organise your takes while recording.
While there are some nice things about quick swipe comping, it's not a fully developed solution, and at least for me and some others, the newer workflow is *far less efficient* than how we used to do it.
Good reasons for being able to optionally turn take folder management off.
In fact, when people would ask for this take folder method pre-8, I was against the feature. I find having multiple "hidden" tracks on one "real" track (like how some other DAWs did it) a much inferior solution than Logic, which could have multiple tracks all on the same audio object - so everything was visible and directly editable - none of this "choose which take to play" stuff. This was (and still is) a great feature of Logic. -
Can I get rid of my iTunes and go back to an older version?
I have had too many problems with my newer versions of iTunes. I just want to go back to an older version where I didn't have any problems. I want to go back about 2-3 versions. My dad has it on his because he never updated it and he has no problems at all.
Right now I have version 7.1.1.5
Thanks.I had the exact problem. It would get to about 80% "updating library" then get stuck there. I went through all the "advised solutions" and then after days of looking I found the older version.. here you go: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/itunes605forwindows.html
Let me know if it works for you!

As a former programmer, I am dismayed that such a poor version would be released! It reminds me of dealing with Windows 98!
I don't understand WHY they would pull support for the older version v3.6.16 when it is obvious that so many people want to go back to that version. The new version is TERRIBLE!! I am having problems with it and reading thru these posts so are a lot of people.
I urge you NOT to pull support until you come up with a better version than this one. I plan to go back to the older version and if you pull support I will go back to internet explorer before I go to this new version of firefox. I have used firefox for years and recommended it to a lot of people but I am very disappointed in this version.
