  • Cannot sync my ipad . . . keep getting message " requires version 10.6.3" or later . . . I've already downloaded 10.7 to my mac . . . won't recognize Ipad either . . . help

    Cannot sync my ipad . . . keep getting message " requires version 10.6.3" or later . . . I've already downloaded 10.7 to my mac . . . won't recognize Ipad either . . . help

    I'm having a similar problem. Perhaps more complex. I just downloaded the 10.6.3 and it didn't solve the problem for my iPhone 5.
    I have the new iPhone 5 and iTunes is asking for iTunes 7.0 in order to recognize the phone. I tried to download iTunes 7.0 but an error comes up stating that I need the 10.6.8. Well I tried to download the 10.6.8 and an error message came up saying that I need minimum of 10.6. So now I'm confused....
    These are the error messages in order.
    1. The iPhone “iPhone” cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes.
    2. This update requires Mac OS X version 10.6.8 or higher.
    3. This update requires Mac OS X version 10.6.
    Will I have to pay for the 10.6?
    Thanks so much in advance.

    It has been shown there are problems with the latest update of iTunes and Windows computers. What you need to do is remove and reinstall iTunes, and make sure that you follow the steps in this support document exactly. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923. If you do not follow them exactly, you will just compound your problems. Once you do this, you should have no trouble having the phone recognized in iTunes.

  • When trying to burn a playlist to a blank CD, iTunes 10.3.1 won't recognize the blank CD I've inserted (Verbatim CD-R). I've burned using these CDs before, this is a recent problem. Not the burner, as I can burn using Toast. iMac with Snow Leopard 10.6.8

    What kind of CD are you burning (Audio or MP3)?
    If you're burning an MP3 CD, the songs must already
    be in mp3 format.
    If not, iTunes will tell you that you have no songs
    in the playlist.

    I was making an audio cd. But I have since found out what the problem was. The files in my PLAYLIST I converted to aiff, since they were SDll files (I thought they were similar to AIFF, and they PLAY on Itunes...just won't burn.) When I selected the songs in the playlist and converted them...I thought all those files were converted, They were not. The converted files went into my LIBRARY, even tho I selected the ones in the playlist...and once I exchanged the SDll versions of the songs in my playlist. THEN they burned fine...but still...it's confusing..you say convert..it says it's been converted..and what they don't say is it's not been converted inside the playlist...where I had selected the songs...It just ADDED aiff versions..but only in the library...Anyway, that's what happened. But it's strange that it PLAYS SDll but won't burn them....and you'd think, logically..the ones you selected would change...but they don't. Playlists are mainly pointers to the actual files I guess...a sort of Alias..
    At least it works now. But it's sad that the latest itunes does more, but also does LESS...as I used to be able to burn SDll files. Now I'll have to convert all my files to AIFF, and mp3's as I assume my ipod video won't play anything but mp3's?

    My phone is doing the same thing. My computer acknowledges that I have connected my iPhone 4, however, iTunes will no longer connect or sync to my iPhone 4. I have uninstalled iTunes, Bonjour and all Apple products from my pc. I have re-installed them back on. I have reset my phone. I have emptied my temp folder. I have done everything. If my iPhone cannot update and sync with iTunes then I may as well get another phone from somewhere else. I am disappointed that I cannot resolve this issue.
    Rebeccaspe31, were you able to resolve your issue? If so how?

  • ITunes won't recognize iPad in Windows 7 64bit

    I am posting this in the hope it will help other people who have this problem. I spent 7 months trying to find out why iTunes wouldn't recognize my iPad. The only way it was recognized, is if I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it.Once I turned off my computer, the next day when I turned it back on, it wouldn't recognize the iPad.
    A month ago I bought a iPad 2, and I had 3 months of phone support. Nothing the technition suggested worked. We went through all the fixes that are documented in Apple's solution pages. He decided to send it up to the engineers. They asked for me to give them about 4MB of info from my computer from various hidden folders. The engineers told him they noticed I had 5 Malware programs and an antivirus program. Also that my chipset drivers were out of date or misconfigured.
    They told him to start by uninstalling each malware and antivirus, one by one, keeping iTunes open, but unpluggin the iPad before uninstalling, to see if it connected. I uninstalled the first one, which is called Super Malware, and it didn't work, then I uninstalled Avast (free, it requires a computer restart after uninstalling, so you have to open iTunes again), and I plugged in the iPad, and voila, it worked.
    All that time, Avast was keeping my iPad from being recognized in iTunes. A few Antivirus programs interfere with iOS devices. If you are having trouble, try uninstalling antivirus and malware programs, one by one, to see if they are the culprit. It is time consuming doing it one by one, but it's the only way to find the one that is causing the problems. We never got to the chipset problem, so I don't know if that would help anyone, and you should be careful when playing around with upgrading drivers for chipsets. If you do, make sure you know what you are doing.

    Thanks! I had the exact same problem. i'd reinstall iTunes and it would work for a sync or two, then nothing. Uninstalling Avast worked!

  • Itunes won't recognize ipad as a device

    iTunes recognises my ipod which is great, it shows under My Devices on the left of iTunes.  But when I plug in my iPad Mini I get an error message saying the device is unknown and to unplug it and plug it in again but that doesn't work.  It won't give any instructions as to how you get iTunes (on the PC) to recognise the iPad.

    Which version of Itunes do you have?

  • Itunes won't recognize ipad first generation

    Itunes is updated. Recognizes iPhone 5.
    My first gen iPad went on the blitz after the update and would kill off after five minutes, no matter if it was fully charged or not. I attempted the obvious restarts and resets. Reset back to factory settings via iTunes. After that it requests to be registered again, however it will not go through. Attempt to hook it to iTunes as suggested but it eventually says iTunes is "Unable to help" and isn't recognized. Attempted the home/off reboot, plug to computer/hold home key, but iTunes does not recognize iPad at all in this state.
    I've read that some suggest this is a software issue and that Apple suggests this is a hardware issue. What are my options at this stage? Can this be repaired at all?

  • New itunes (11.0.2) won't recognize my older ipod... help?

    I have an old ipod (I bought it 2007, 80G size, I think) and it has always worked just fine, so no need to invest in a new one. This week I accidentally updated my itunes software. I had always avoided updating it for fear it would make my old ipod obsolete. Now, the new itunes won't recognize my older ipod. It does show up in my finder as a disk drive, but it is not recognized in itunes. I am assuming it has something to do with the old not being compatible with the new, but I have no idea how to remedy the problem. Is there a way to dump the new itunes and reload an older version that is compatible with older ipods? I find this kind of planned obsolesence really frustrating. There was nothing wrong with my ipod device before I regrettably updated the itunes software on my laptop (MacBookPro OS10.6.8) Any tips on how to get the ipod working with the laptop without buying a new ipod would be greatly appreciated!

    well, I am surprised, but i follwed apple's ipod troubleshooting guide step by step and my problem was solved!
    Restarted ipod, restarted computer and voila!
    Phew.

  • Updated to newest iTunes version, now it won't recognize my iPhone.

    Hey everyone. Was just looking for some tips or added feedback for an issue I'm having.
    I went to do the iOS7 update for my iPhone 4. My iTunes told me that I had to have the "Newest Version of iTunes (11.1.whatever) to update to iOS 7, Do you want to Download now?"
    So i clicked "Download" and away we went. After it finished, I restarted my computer like I always do after I install to software. I have Windows 8 by the way. When I started up iTunes and plugged in my device, nothing happened. No button in the top right appeared. So I ran the iTunes diagnostic, and it said no device was found. It shows up in "My Computer" as Landon's iPhone 4. So I know it's connected. I found the troubleshooting page for this on Apple's website, and did EVERYTHING. Still won't recognize my phone.
    Has anyone else run into this problem? How was it resolved? Any tips or tricks would be helpful!! Thanks in advance!!
