ITunes 10 software update never appeared on my software updates list
I have two iMacs networked together, one 4 year old iMac running Tiger 10.5, and one 2009 iMac running SL 10.6.4. I downloaded iTunes 10 on the older machine several weeks ago after it appeared in the Software Update list. I have never seen the iTunes 10 software update appear on the software update list on my newer iMac which is running iTunes 9.2.1 (5) .
I have gone to iTunes and checked for Software update and it runs the scan for my software updates and the iTunes10 update is NOT there. When I google "iTunes10 Software Update", I get the Apple site with a download for iTunes 10, but no software update download.
What is going on... and is the iTunes 10 download the same as the software update ?
After reading all the complaints and problems here with v.10, I am inclined to forget the whole v.10 update and wait for the next one to see if some of these issues have been fixed. I could care less about Ping, and don't sync any iPods etc. with iTunes.
Thanks for any information, especially if someone can specify the difference between iTunes 10 download vs. iTunes 10 software update.

I still don't know why the update has not appeared on my list
i have seen reports of this here on the forums. i would consider it a minor flaw of the software update app.
i wouldn't worry too much about it. if you want iTunes 10, get the standalone installer via the link i provided above.
don't be discouraged by reports you see here - this forum is like a hospital. just because folks in a hospital are sick, it doesn't mean the whole world is ...

Changed music location - itunes won't update list?
I have all of my music on a new hard drive and pointed iTunes to that as my music location. I want it to go through and make sure all the music in there is in the iTunes playlist - can this be done?
edit: I guess I could clear my list and drag all the music over, but there's a lot and I hate that iTunes always attempts to do the gapless playback thing. (On a related note, why does Apple add a lot of features without a toggle option?)
Message was edited by: thebrzapointed iTunes to that as my music location
That simply tells iTunes where you want new music to go.
It is still looking for your music in the old location.
Quit iTunes.
Move the music back to where it was (Music\iTunes\iTunes music folder).
Restart iTunes.
All teh music should work.
Point iTunes prefs -> Advanced -> iTunes music folder location to where you want the music to be located.
Now go to iTunes menu File -> Library -> Consolidate.
This will copy everything in iTunes to the new location and use that for everything.
Then you can delete \Music\iTunes\iTunes music folder. -
Update notices never appear in iTunes/Mac for free-with-iPhone 5s apps: Numbers, Pages, or Keynote
When I bought my iPhone 5s, I was given the opportunity to get Numbers, Pages, and Keynote for free. Visiting the App Store on my phone, I downloaded each one of them.
I usually use iTunes for the Mac to manage my iPhone, so the apps were available for downloading within iTunes/Mac after I had downloaded them on my iPhone.
But unlike all of my other apps, I've never gotten a notice within iTunes/Mac that there is an updated version of these three apps. On my iPhone, they show up in the badge and within the app in the "Updates" list. But on iTunes for the Mac, I never see a notice within the Apps section (not even the "Updates" tab of that section, which only lists apps with available updates). All of my other apps that I've puchased or gotten for free appear in the "Updates" tab when a new version is available.
I prefer to do manual app updates on my phone, and I usually use iTunes on the Mac to download updates. But since I rarely look at the App Store app on my iPhone, and never see the update notices appear in iTunes for the Mac.
Please note that I have updated all of the things I mention above: OS X (latest version of Mavericks), iTunes (11.1.4), iOS (7.0.4), and the Numbers, Pages, and Keynote apps. The problem is that the updates for the three iOS apps never appear in iTunes for Mac, unless I navigate to the app page and manually download it.
I'm not sure how to communicate this bug to Apple, if it's something they need to fix; or how to resolve it myself, if it's something I have control over.
Does anyone have an idea?oh... then I understood wrong. thanks for the hint. Would be great, when apple would change that... cause Steve said, from now... the pc/mac is just another device in the cloud...
that would be believable... -
Problem with iTunes and/or updater software??
I just bought a brand new 30gig iPod video. I followed apple's "instructions" and installed iTunes and the iPod software off of the included cd. I then connected my iPod and it charged but itunes never recognized it. Windows can find it (it appears as an external disk drive in my computer and iPod in other places) but iTunes doesn't recognize it at all. I have tried resetting the iPod, uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes/ipod software using the install cd, i have tried downloading the latest software from apples website and installing it that way, I have tried everything but restoring the ipod because the updater software won't even work. every time I try to use it, it just says "Service Error". I really have no idea what to do. The iPod seems to work fine, it turns on, turns off, windows seems to recognize it, but iTunes won't recognize the iPod and the iPod updater software doesn't seem to work at all. The last thing I am going to try is wiping my computer harddrive (it needs it for other reasons, not just this iPod problem) and starting completely fresh with nothing or very little installed besides iTunes and the iPod software.
The article posted in the first response is a great place to start. If that doesn't work, try these out as well:

OS Updates Never Appear in Mac App Store
I'm running OS X v.10.8.2, and have noticed that OS updates have never appeared in the Mac App Store since installing Mountain Lion in the fall of 2012. No error messages have ever appeared. I'm sure that there have been security updates issued, as well as updates to iTunes and Safari since then. The store does notify me of updates to specific apps that I have downloaded from the store, such as Pages and Numbers. I've tried (1) clearing the Mac App Store cache, and (2) fixing my disc permissions. Neither of these has caused any OS updates to appear. The Settings pane for Software Update (System Preferences) reports that the last update request occured in October of 2012. Numerous requests have been attempted since then.
Any suggestions for fixing this?Just reporting back to say that installing 10.8.4 did not solve the problem. I've also tried bypassing my wireless LAN, a potential fix for this problem suggested by others. That didn't help either! Maybe I will simply make do with periodic manual updates.

Mac Book Software Update not working (Software Update does not have any new software for your computer at this time), my current MacBook version is 10.5.8.
As a result I can't update iTunes, version 10.5.2 (This software requiers Mac OS X version 10.6.8 or later)
Now when I connect my iPhone 4, version iOS 6 iTunes can't connect to iPhone (The iPhone "XXXXX's iPhone" cannot be used because it requiers iTunes version 10.6.3 or later.)
so in a nutshell can't use iphone 4, because iTune is not updated and will not update because Mac Book is not up to date and will not update either.
Please help.
Thank you

Just bought a new iphone 5, i have an old imac computer OSX 10.5.8 and itune version 10 (updated at great cost last year for iphone4) it dosen't let me restore data... any chance of update or do i have to thow away my computer (and never by Mac again?)
You an use your iPhone without connecting it to a computer.
But the product description for the iPhone clearly states that in order to sync with a Mac you must have OSX 10.6.8 or later. That version of the OSX is usually called Snow Leopard. There are two mo recent versions of OSX. OSX 10.7.x (Lion) and OSX 10.8.x (Mountain Lion).
If you can upgrade your computer to at least Snow Leopard I suggest you do so. -

After installing Reader 11.0.07 update on my iMac OS X, v.10.8.5, when I open an Adobe pdf file I see Chinese script next to the blue loading bar at the bottom of the screen. This never appeared before when downloading pdf files and I am worried that my computer is being hacked into or I acquired a virus. Is this normal or do I have to uninstall this update?

my itunes wont open it tells me that my itunes library was updated by a newer version on itunes but my software is uptodate any one else have this prob?
Look under your Start Menu for Apple Software Update, but before doing that, check the time and date on your computer that it's correct.
It's also saying the iTunes Library .XML file in your iTunes Folder file is new, for some reason, but your songs should be still in the iTunes Folder.
You can move the XML file out and restart iTunes and it shoudl creat another, you lose your playlists and have to import all your music again. -

ITunes and iPod updated software is impossible to download
I download stuff all the time, but I have not been able to download any recent itunes or ipod updated software since december 2005.
Of course, Apple provides no easy contact info just this useless message board.
There is nothing wrong with my cable modem. There is something wrong with the apple servers. overloaded or something.
Count me as fed up 2.

Hello - I used a Sony DVD to burn 350 songs from my iTunes library to share with a friend. When I put the DVD into my friend's computer to rip those 350 songs, the 'import songs' button never appeared in the lower right hand corner of iTunes. Anybody know what's preventing me from ripping what's on the DVD?
When I put the DVD into my friend's computer to rip those 350 songs, the 'import songs' button never appeared in the lower right hand corner of iTunes.
The import command only works with audio CDs. So if you burned the files in mp3 format, try instead using the "File > Add file to library" or "File > Add folder to library" commands. -
IPod Classic 120GB - iTunes Won't update my iPod software to version 2.1
I have a 120GB iPod classic with software version 2.0.1 bought in 2009.
I want to upgrade the software to version 2.1 so I can have the voice memo feature on my iPod.
I am running iTunes version 10.0.1
When I ask iTunes to check for a software update for my ipod it says, "This version of the iPod software (2.0.1) is the current version."
This is obviously not true.
I've tried to download the software update directly from apple.com ( http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120229 ) but it gives me a full download of iTunes 10.0.1 which I already have installed.
I don't understand why iTunes will not update my iPod's software. I don't understand why the iPod didn't come with the 2.1 version already installed. According to the download page, this version was released in 2003.
Can anyone please explain to me why or more importantly, HOW I can get the ipod software updated when iTunes fails to do it?
Thanks in advance!Hello BookofSplendors,
And welcome to Discussions!
Sorry, but that firmware update is for a different model iPod, which would explain why its release date was from 2003 and not something more recent. The firmware on your 120 GB iPod is actually the most up to date version already.
