Itunes 10.4.1 and osx 10.4.11 compatibility

I am currently running itunes 9.2.1 on OSX 10.4.11. All has been fine until I attempted to hook up Apple TV so I can listen to my itunes on my stereo/tv in another room. In order to use that function of Apple TV, you have to have itunes version 10.4.1. So, I went to itunes, downloaded the version, placed it on my mac, and then tried to open the compressed file to install it. It gave me the message that it won't "install itunes.pkg" because it requires mac OSX 10.5. Therefore, I'm now at my technical capability threshold and need some help.
Any suggestions on what I should do? Any help would be so greatly appreciated!

If you Increased your RAM to the Maximum your Mac will take and you Upgraded to Snow Leopard OS 10 6
You would then be able to run iTunes 10

I have iTunes (11.1.4) and OSX (10.9.1). itunes becomes unresponsive immediately upon booting up with the pinwheel. If I open the app in safe mode it appears to be working normally for about 60 secs. and then the pinwheel shows up again.

I have restart all devices.

Hey Von2,
Thanks for the question, and great troubleshooting so far. Usually with issues like this, I would recommend starting iTunes in Safe mode - but you have already done that! Great job.
The next step is to isolate the issue further by using another user account:

Possible consolidation incompatability between Vista and OSX ?

I want to use the same library with my iTunes sessions in Vista and OSX.
The library is located on an external HD.
iTunes is configured on both platforms to keep music organized. I used the consolidate feature to initially move the music from the OSX partition to the external HD. No problem there.
But then when I pointed my Vista session of iTunes to the new library, it wanted to organize the music again. Assuming it would not do much since I had just consolidated from the OSX side, I allowed it to proceed. Now most of the music on the OSX session has exclamation points, indicating that the music had been moved and the pointers are lost.
Is there an incompatibility between consolidation methodologies between OSX and Vista versions of iTunes? Is it not possible for me to have iTunes from differences operating systems manage the same library?
I appreciate any help with this...

So if I turn off "keep organized", how do I in fact keep things organized as I rip CD's from both platforms?
When you rip a CD, iTunes will put the tracks in proper "organized" (Artist/Album) location. However, the second iTunes will not know it is there. You can either (a) add the new files manually to the second iTunes, via File > Add Folder to Library, or (b) run a 3rd party folder-watching program such as iTunes Folder Watch that will add them automatically as they appear. Disclaimer: I have not personally used that program, so read up and make sure you are happy with it.

ITunes 7.5 and OSX 10.4.11 - CANNOT CONNECT TO iTUNES STORE

After a recent upgrade to iTunes 7.5 and OSX 10.4.11, I can no longer connect to the iTunes store. I have tried reinstalling iTunes 7.5 (and Quicktime - just in case!). I have also tried Keychain First Aid. Still it is broken. Please help me with this problem if you know of a fix.

i can't connect to the itunes store on 2 out of 3 macs in the house!!! this occurred in the last 48 hrs or so... although i downloaded a movie this week which took ages vs the normal time.
all connected through the same airport & have same settings & all other internet stuff fine.
i don't have any snitch.
i checked versions of software for os x and itunes on each machine:
(cannot connect) powerbook g4 runs 10.4.11 and itunes 7.5
(cannot connect) macbook 2.2 ghz runs 10.5.1 and itunes 7.5
(connects to store) macbook 2 ghz runs 10.4.10 and itunes 7.4.2
would indicate something wrong with itunes 7.5 but can't be sure...
Help pls...

My friend dislikes the updated itunes 11.0.1 and wants the previous version put back in. On a Macbook 2,1 with OSX 10. 6.8 how can this be done?

You need a Time Machine backup to restore an old version. If you don't have one, you'll lose your library because it can only be used with iTunes 11

I have just upgraded to the latest version of OSX as invited by Apple. Since then iTunes will not play and my volume controls have stopped working - in Preferences the sound controller is not able to find any input or output devices. What is going on?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
There will be no audio output in safe mode. The question to be answered by the test is whether any devices are listed in the Sound preference pane. After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

ITunes 11.1.3 under OSX 10.8.x and the INFO button?

Can anyone, who has tested iTunes 11.1.3 under OSX 10.8.x, confirm that the INFO button while syncing locally over USB is still there and working correctly?

Answering my own question … got the confirmation in another discussion:

You can download it (it's just a file) but you won't be able to install/run it with 10.5.8.

HT203163 I received an iPad Air for Christmas and tried to sync this device with iTunes on my MacBook Pro (OSX system 10.6.8). A message popped up that I needed to download the latest version on iTunes in order to be able to sync the two devices.

I downloaded the latest version of iTunes on my MacBook Pro and now when I open iTunes I can not access the iTunes store; however, I can access the Apps store. I have tried reinstalling iTunes. I have tried changing the pop up/cookie settings in Firefox and Safari. I have logged out and also shut down my MacBook. I have tried changing the Firewall settings on my MacBook. I have googled possible ways to get the iTunes store to work and nothing has helped so far. Please help.

It will never automatically update. You always will ahev to tell it to update. it will never update unless you tell it to.
The pics and music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases. The ipod is not a backup device.
Cop everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

I can no longer drop my podcasts into my classic ipod. This after it wiped out all of my ipod podcasts. Can I uninstall itunes 10.5.1 and get the get the version just prior to it? OSX

Well, Genius I'm not. Guess I'll just not use any ipod downloads until they fix this mess. Thanks for your help. Also, just to double check: All of this started when I syncd my calender and contacts and I do I have sync ipod unchecked.

Moving iTunes from PC to Mac OSX possible?

Hi,
My friend has bought a new Mac with OSX 10.5 and wants me to move his iTunes from his PC to Mac, now I can get all the music copied over as I have set the network up and can browse to both computers. iTunes is installed on the Mac but empty, what is the next step? On the PC I usually just hold down the shift key and load it and tell iTunes where my music is.

These pages may be of some help:

Don't forget by the way if your friend has purchased any tracks from the iTunes Music Store to deauthorise his old PC if he's disposing of it so it doesn't use up one of his 5 allowances: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation

I updated iTunes to 10.5 and now in my Netgear Stora iTunes server is not working anymore

I updated iTunes to 10.5 and now in my Netgear Stora iTunes server is not working anymore.
Configuration: OSX Lion with Server, iTunes 10.5, latest firmware for the Stora.
Can this be confirmed to be a bug introduced with 10.5 ?
I also saw some people mentioning the same problem on Synology NAS.
Seems like the 10.5 uodate broke something.

Definitely seems to be a cross-platform bug in iTunes 10.5 concerning all NAS disks. Shared libraries on network drives worked fine under 10.4.1, but now there is just an endless loading cycle with no error message or time-out. There is a bit more about it in this thread.

How can I get iCloud to sync between iOS 6.1.3, OSX 10.6.8 and OSX 10.8.3?

I am running both OSX 10.6.8 and OSX 10.8.3 on my iMac with iOS 6.1.3 on my iPod Touch.
Everything is checked ON in the iCloud settings where those are available, in iOS, OSX 10.8 and in iCloud.com on my OSX 10.6.8 system.
I either get no synchronisation, or a duplication of events. Apple Store Events which need to be clumsily downloaded from the website, double clicked on and hopefully added to Calendar, only randomly appear and rarely get announced. I can't see a pattern to anything.
It currently won't sync between iCloud.com and Address Book, Calendar etc on the Mac let alone with iDevices (my wife has an iPad as well), despite partially syncing previously.
It is erratic, obscure and totally unreliable as well as being a huge waste of my time.
If I follow the iTunes instructions as well as the iCloud.com instructions generally nothing happens.
In the Advanced pane of iCloud.com settings, I have selected the “In-app notifications” checkbox, and Saved. Doesn't work. Then I unselected and saved and closed iCloud.com. Then checked it all over again, still doesn't work.
According to the settings it says it is sharing with the iPod Touch, but nothing happens.
Previously a few events appeared belatedly at some later time, often after the event they were supposed to announce. Currently nothing is syncing.
Most frustratingly I can't sync my Address Book/Contacts so have to manually include all the contact info in all my individual devices and systems.
Has anybody got a surefire method of making the sync happen?

That's correct but your 10.6.8 machine has no way to put it there unless you manually enter it on the website.
That to sync data from iCal and Address Book in Snow Leopard to the iCloud server you must manually register and connect to the iCloud.com website which I have done.
You can't sync from Address Book or iCal in Snow Leopard.

The syncing to the same data in Mountain Lion is done via the System Preferences > iCloud, which I have done.
Supposedly that means the data on the iCloud server is then shared between the iPod Touch, SL and ML, but it is not.
Because data entered on the SL machine never makes it from iCal or AB to iCloud or from iCloud to AB or iCal, the link breaks there.. You can use a 3rd party app (Soho) and use it instead of AB and iCal.
But the problem exists on ML as well.
I get only some Contacts and iCal events transferring.
What you are seeing is probably from SL account which I use 95% of the time. Particularly my Address Book entries. I hardly entered any of those in ML, they virtually all come from SL and seem to have transferred previously. Possibly before the latest iOS updates, but I can't swear to that as I didn't check before/after.
The vast majority of my Address Book entries appear in both iCloud.com and my iPod Touch, but not my latest changes.
This is far from the "It just happens!" promised by Apple.
