Itunes is running in 64-bit mode and will not let me switch to 32- bit mode

I guess 64-bit mode requires MAC OS X 10.7 and I only have 10.6.8 so somehow i need to switch back to 32-bit mode and the instructions it gives me to do so don't make any sense. help!

At Mike Johnson12's suggestion I posted my problem separately at https://discussions.apple.com/message/15801854#15801854 .  The only response I have received there so far is from another person who has experienced the same problem you & I have.  That makes at least 3 of us. Please feel free to hijack my post there if you think it might help!

    Hi @imobl,
    You sound like an Apple support guy who hasn't been able to answer my questions.
    To respond to some of the points you made,
    - I did not ignore Ocean20's suggestion. If you has read my post, you would have known that I took my phone to the apple service centre where they tried this restore on THEIR machines. I am assuming that Apple guys know how not to block iTunes. So I actually do not understand your point about me trying the hosts file changes on my machine. Do you not believe that apple tested this issue with the correct settings?
    - you also give a flawed logic of why the issue is a hardware issue. You mentioned that If I thought that the issue was with the software, i should try a restore and getting it to work. The problem is that my error (23), and many others comes up when the restore fails. And you would be astonished to know that not all errors are hardware errors. Sometimes even software errors prevent restores. Funnily enough Apple itself mention that 'in rare cases, error 23 could be hardware related'.
    - all Apple has done so far is replicate the issue. I don not know how anyone can conclude that the issue is a hardware issue.
    And by the way, I am not certain that this is a software bug. Again if you read my Posts, you will notice I only want a confirmation,/proof that the issue is hardware related as they mention..
    Please refrain do. Responding if there is nothing to add.

    Just what happens when you connect it to your computer and restore via iTunes?
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

        Tracii6,
    VoiceOver is a great feature on the iPhones. I am sorry you are not able to turn it on. You have come to the right place. When you go into VoiceOver and you hit OK. Then double tap where it says on. This will turn this feature on. If you are wanting to remove the feature you would do the same thing but double tap on the OFF.

  • After attempting to update to ios 7, my iphone is stuck in recovery mode and will not connect to the itunes software server.

    After attempting to update to ios 7, my iphone is stuck in recovery mode and will not connect to the itunes software server.  I have already tried the resetting with power swich and home button and plugging into computer but it says the "iPhone software update server cannot be contacted."  I am locked out of my phone.  Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this issue and get the phone working again.  I will add that I am now trying to restore it on a different computer with a lower version of itunes, but the computer that it initially happened on had the updated itunes and gave me the same result ... nothing.  Thanks for your help in advance.

    Try going to recovery mode as described here.  You may have to try this more than once to succeed.
    Use the original iTunes that the iPhone synced with.

    I have read your post on how your monitor goes into sleep mode and will not wake up, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
    To rule out any sleep mode issues with the monitor, I am providing you with some steps you can try below:
    Step 1. Unplug the power cord from the back of the monitor and the wall
    Step 2. Hold the power button down for at least one minute
    Step 3. Plug the power cord back into the monitor and then into the wall outlet (not a power bar or surge protector)
    Step 4. Press the Menu button on the monitor
    Step 5. Navigate to the Factory Reset option and select it
    Step 6. Try a different cable connecting your monitor to your computer
    If the above steps did not resolve your issue you can try the monitor on a computer or other device to see if the issue persists. Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

  • Iphoto is stuck in IMPORT mode and will not QUIT!

    iphoto is stuck in IMPORT mode and will not QUIT!
    please let me know what to do
    the iphoto version is 5.0.1

    Hi ambrosia,
    i am afraid that if you force quit right now you will run into problems opening your library when you next try.
    If it is at all possible (an I don't even know if this will work while iPhoto is running) open a finder window and navigate to the iPhoto Library folder.
    Highlight the folder and hit Command D to duplicate the folder. I am hoping you can do this before any changes are made to the data files that might corrupt them when you force quit iPhoto.
    Once you have the duplicate library, then you can see if you can Force quit iPhoto. You can do this if you see the "force quit" option when you click and hold on the iPhoto icon in the dock. You can also launch Activity Monitor and find iPhoto in the window and choose to force quit it from there.
    What kind of camera do you have and how many images and or video clips are you trying to download. Sometimes iPhoto gets stuck on very large video clips and eventually they will download.

  • MacBook Pro has a grey screen with circle and slash and will not start up or start into safe mode.

    MacBook Pro has started to get a grey screen with circle and slash and will not start up or start into safe mode.  This happened once previously, however, it allowed a safe mode reboot and then worked for a week or so.  While utilzing the machine, it started with the spinning beach ball for about 5 minutes, went into a shut down mode and then rebooted and came back up with the grey screen with a circle and slash after a few minutes.  For the past three days it has been stuck and will not allow it to boot into safe mode.  Any idea or suggestions?

    Try starting the MBP with the OPTION key down.  If you see two HDD icons, select the recovery Icon.  From the 4 option menu, select Disk Utility.  Select Disk Utility>First Aid and run Verify and Repair. 
    If you cannot get into the recovery partition, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar.
    Ciao.
