ITunes 10.7 will not update/install on computer

Went to update my iTunes on my computer to 10.7 in advance of downloading the iOs6 update for my iPhone 4s today. iTunes will not complete the install, and doesn't tell me what the errors are why it cannot complete the installation. (Running Vista). iTunes was still working at this point. I then went to uninstall iTunes and re-install it, and now cannot install or open at all. Any suggestions?

many thanks, that's perfect.

Hi enp518,

I add songs to itunes, but ipod will not update!

I imported songs onto my itunes library. But when I plug it in the usb to update, it will automatically disconnect after 5 minutes, and the ipod will not update. I've tried adding all music, and just checked songs; both do not not work.
I have version 7.0.0.7
I have about 50% of room left on my ipod.
Any suggestions??

Hello Rex225
The best way to resolve the issue is to remove the music from the iPhone and then download the purchase again using the steps in the following article.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

ITunes on Windows will not update any iOS-device

I have three iOS-devices. An iPod Touch 3rd gen (ver 3.1.3), and iPhone 3GS (4.2.1) and iPad. It's been a really long time that I remember that iTunes offered to update any of them. iTunes itself has been regularly updating and is now 10.5.1.42. The PC is Windows 7 Home Premium.
So, no updates being offered when I sync the devices, it will always check and say it will check again in a few weeks. I agreed to borrow my iPad to a friend, wiped it, and the moment he hooked it up to his Mac-iTunes, it suggested iOS5. I then decided I need to get to the bottom of this update issue of my own iTunes. I started by downloading the relevant ipsw-files for my phone and Touch and trying a direct shift-restore update. The result is the message: The iPhone ... could not be updated because the firmware file is not compatible. Same message for the Touch.
I tried installing iTunes on another computer at home, same message if I check for an update. Same error message if I try using a local file. Tried putting the Touch in DFU-mode, in that case iTunes goes through a lengthy update process, but the result is the same 3.1.3 iOS.
Nothing in the hosts-file about Apple. The Touch and the iPhone have never had any beta-releases or jailbreak code. The only thing I can think of is that I have two iTunes-accounts. My regular European one, and one to the US store. However, the second iTunes I installed is empty of any purchases and only has been signed on with my European account.
Any ideas? Have not tried Apple Support yet...if I can even get it for this old devices...

Apps in iTunes on Macbook will not update

The Apps in my iTunes on my Macbook do not update anymore. I also have an iMac with iTunes logged in as same account and those apps update like normal. I have not been able to fix it.
Also, notmally when you view App Thumbnails in iTunes, if you klik on an icon then it expands to show information, latest version, etc....Mine does not do that anymore.

I have a 3rd Generation Ipod touch and it is updated to the 5.0.0 OS. However I just got another 3rd generation 32gb IPod Touch--it is exactly the same, but it will not update on any computer I have authorized. I have tried restoring it HELP!!

The Icloud on the newer i pod will not activate and itunes will not let me download my icloud songs on itunes that i bought on my other ipod how do I update the new ipod and add icloud so i can put my music on it???

What happens when you try to update/restore Erro message?
Is is a 2G iPod? They look the same.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

I burned a DVD of a movie I bought in iTunes but it will not play on another computer

I burned a few DVDs of some movies I purchased on iTunes....they play fine on my imac with iTunes, Quicktime or any other player but will not play at all on my friend's various PCs. Help? What did I do wrong. The friend said their computer asked for my "address"? They were reluctant to do that...What did I do wrong?...or are movies bought on iTunes copy protected??

Thanks for getting back. I have the movies downloaded to my computer. I went to 'Get Info' and now I do see that they are Copy Protected. I was able to copy them to a DVD as I said. And to make sure I wasn't watching the original when I put the DVDs back in my computer for testing, I closed iTunes and used Qucktime to view them...and it worked. When I was burning them I got no warning that they were copy protected and went through the near hour it took to copy each one and it said I would be able to play it on 'any Apple or Windows computer..but not on a DVD player' and that was why I lent them to a friend to watch. But I guess if they are copy protected that was surely in vain. I wish I had gotten prompts telling me that, instead of wasting 5 DVDs and several hours..not to mention getting them to my friend and getting her all excited to see the films. Oh well...she will have to come over here to watch them. Thanks.

ITunes music library will not update on iPod after syncing

I did a computer swipe a number of months ago and was only just recently able to recover my iTunes account. So fortunately I have all my music still (well most of it. Some of my file locations are missing but that is user error).
Now, yesterday I synced my iPod for the first time since the clean sweep. I was annoyed that the process completely cleaned out my iPod (of course it was not backed up because I had no way of syncing it to my account) so I lost everything except the music.
Here's the problem: while I can play iTunes on my laptop, none of the songs are being properly downloaded onto the iPod. All the titles and information show up like they should, but they are greyed out so you cannot select them.
I've tried re-syncing several times and even rebooted my laptop and re-syncing to no avail.
My iPod is literally empty like when I first got it brand new but I can't play my music.
Any ideas? I'm at my last straw.

Is the iPod signed in the iTunes account? (Settings>Store)
Next I would try restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and then sync.
