that's not the case !
1) update your Tiger to 10.4.11, using the combo updater from here http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx10411comboupdat eppc.html (repair permissions before and after installation)
2) run software update from the  menu and install all updates being offered. you need especially Safari 4.x !
3) install iTunes 9.x
4) enjoy

Installed new version of iTunes, now it won't work

Ok so I think I am fairly competent at using a computer, and I just installed the new version of iTunes last night and when I went to open it up I got the following message:
"QuickTime version 7.0d0 is installed, iTunes requires QuicTime version 7.1.3 or later, please reinstall iTunes"
So i have uninstalled, restarted computer, and then reinstalled iTunes 3 times now and keep getting the same message. I've also tried to install the latest version of QuickTime by itself to see if that helps and it didn't.
Any suggestions???? Thanks in advance for your help.

"QuickTime version 7.0d0 is installed, iTunes requires QuicTime version 7.1.3 or later, please reinstall iTunes"
try reinstalling 7.0.2.16. if you still get the same message, we'll try swapping out your existing QuickTime for a fresh one.
head into your Add/Remove programs. uninstall QuickTime.
Next, we’ll manually remove leftover program files and folders.
1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
3. Open Program Files.
4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
7. Restart your computer.
next, we'll get a fresh copy of QuickTime into your PC by doing a repair install of itunes.
switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the repair install.
go into Add/Remove and select itunes. click "Change" and then click "Repair".
if the repair install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching itunes again. does it launch properly now?

i didnt get any pop up telling me to do something or anything like that... it just did nothing.
Okay, if it's failing to uninstall without giving you an error message, let's try the following procedure.
Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. then use it to clear any existing QuickTime installation configuration information from your PC:

I aam thinking of changing from a PC to a Mac. Will I need to buy a new Apple compatible version of Lightroom, do I have to pay to upgrade or can I get the new version free?

I am thinking of changing from a PC to a Mac. Will I need to buy a new, Apple compatible, version of Lightroom, or can I upgrade to it, or can I get it free as I've paid for the PC version?

Your licence is not platform specific, so Lightroom can be used on any two machines (Mac and/or WIndows), with one actually being used at any given time.
So no, you're money's safe!

I need to connect my Imac 27'' (newest version) up to 3/4 monitors (all 40'' LCD tv's with VGA and HDMI connections) with extended display to all external screens, not duplicate images. Is this possible?

i need to connect my Imac 27'' (newest version) up to 3/4 monitors (all 40'' LCD tv's with VGA and HDMI connections) with extended display to all external screens, not duplicate images. Is this possible?

I would suggest you visit an Apple dealer, preferably an Apple Store if there's one in your city, and ask for assistance in determining what you need. The questions and issues you bring up are rather complex to address in a technical support forum and would be better addressed in person where you and the salesperson can ask questions back and forth to arrive at the optimal setup.

I am getting a message that my iphoto library cannot be opened because I mades changes to my photos in a newer version of iphoto and I need to quit and use the newest version of iPhoto. but i cannot update it and or access my photos. Help. thanks.

I am getting a message that my iphoto library cannot be opened because I mades changes to my photos in a newer version of iphoto and I need to quit and use the newest version of iPhoto. but in update, it says i have no updates. i dont even remember making changes in iphoto.Help. thanks.

What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

HT1550 i have the newest version of itunes and none of that works!!! i dont know where the advanced menu is and i dont think you can select a song anymore

I have the newest version of iTunes and none of that works!!! I don't know where the Advanced Menu is. And I don't think you can select a song anymore. I need to make WAV Files to put them on Windows Media Player so i can download music on my Samsung Intensity 2.

Try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
If iTunes still does not see the iPod try:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

HT1420 I want to transfer music off an old iPod but it says it comes from an older version of itunes Store and won't let me transfer to the new store.

I want to tranfer music off my old iPod but it says I can't because the music is linked to a different version of iTunes store. What do I need to do?

Found a resolution. Got a FREE introductory offer from the net and used it to download my music to my computer and then could drag over to iTunes.

Download older version o itunes now it won't open, how do i fix this? i just uninstall the newer version

i download a ring tone maker, but am tying toadd it to my phone in itunes an it doesnt work, i read that i can unnistall the newe version of itunes an install the older version, i did that but when i try to open i tunes it gives me this messgage "the file itunes library cannot be read because it was created by a newe version of itunes" how do i fix this to use the older version of itunes the 10 something is worthless.

Try following steps and test one at a time:
1. Restart computer, right mouse click iTunes icon and select "Run As Administrator"
2. If that does not work, check to see if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
3. If that fails or you don't see ApsDaemon.exe in the Processes, refer to following article to remove SC files:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
4. If that fails, repair or reinstall your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR.

I updated to latest version of iTunes and it isn't working. What do I do?

I downloaded iTunes update 12.0.1 to my Windows 8 computer, and it did not open when I finished. It gave an error message that it cannot find iTunes. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes 2 or 3 times. I'm afraid I lost all my music. It still opens with the same error message. How do I get iTunes back?

Actually, Chris, I found that page yesterday on my own doing a search, before I wrote my post. After your instructions didn't work, I found that page and tried deleting the iAdcore.dll and that did not work. When I tried to open it said it didn't have the iAdcore and could not be opened. There was no QTMovieWin there to delete. I again uninstalled everything in the order listed on this new page, because there were 7 things to uninstall (not 5 as your last page suggested). I found that I had iCloud so that was deleted in the proper order. Did not have MobileMe on the computer. Also deleted Apple Application support, which wasn't on your list either. I restarted the computer. I looked for any files on drive C program files as indicated, and did not find any of those files. I went to the iTunes page and downloaded the latest version yet again (maybe the 5th time?). And I got the same notice:
"The iTunes Library.itl cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the iTunes folder in the music folder."
I went to that iTunes folder in the music folder there are a number of iTunes library folders and none of the open except one. The ones that don't open give me the same dialogue box as above. The last folder opens to a page of codes, I guess that's what it is. Gobbeldy gook to me. But that folder is listed at the top in the URL as itTunes Library.xml. I don't see any .itl. Is that the folder I need? And how do I get that??
I don't know if that last paragraph is significant, but I thought I'd include just in case it is.
BTW, can I just download an older version of iTunes? And how can I find it? I still have the old version on my old computer which is at home. Not sure how to get it from that to this one.
Thanks for hanging in there with me. Perhaps there is someone else who could help if you can't figure it out.

Updated version of Adobe Flash Player won't work...??

I am trying to upload the newest version of Adobe Flash Player. Though, after about 5 attempts of installing, uninstalling and reinstalling again, I still can't watch videos on youtube, hulu and other related sites. I also tried right-clicking the "Install Adobe Flash Player" icon and selected "Show package Contents" and went into "Contents/Resources" to select the package...but the package wasn't even listed! I am running out of ideas here...any suggestions??

Oh okay. I'm not up on all the computer lingo.

Ever since I downloaded the new version of iTunes, my iPhone won't sync with the computer. It doesn't even show up.

I downloaded the updated version of iTunes. Ever since then, my iphone won't even come up as a device. Everytime I plug it in, something comes up asking me do I want to trust this computer on my phone.. I've been using this computer for my iphone downloads and stuff for about 6 months now. I was wondering if this has happened to anybody else since the update and is there any solutions?

So, in iTunes, when you look at the shuffle's content (in the sidebar) and click on the playlist under the shuffle, over to the right, the songs are in your desired order, correct? Where do you look, or what do you do, that indicates the playlists are in alphabetical order? Are you saying that when you play the songs while using the shuffle, they play in alphabetical order?
If so, when you listen to the songs on the shuffle, are you using the playlist, or are you using the All Songs list? If you are in the default All Songs list, with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order (the middle position), the songs play alphabetically, I believe.
The 3rd gen shuffle uses VoiceOver. If you are in the All Songs list, you need to use VoiceOver to switch to the playlist (see manual linked below for details). When you are in the playlist (with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order), then the songs should play in playlist order.
There are more details in the manual for the 3rd gen shuffle, which is online here
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_3rdGen_UG.pdf
See page 22 for the section about setting up and using VoiceOver. The part about switching playlists starts on page 23 (Using the Playlist Menu).

What exactly does this have to do with iTunes for Windows, the forum to which you've posted?

Can I revert back to old version of itunes from version 12

I use itunes version 12 and have a nano 7th generation. I recently upgraded my itunes to version 12 and have to say I don't like it. Can I revert back to earlier version and how do I know what version I used previously?
The main reason I would like to revert back is that I have encountered a problem that I never had previously with itunes. Upon purchasing a song, when I try to copy it to my ipod I am getting the following error message :
"(song name) wasn't copied to ipod because it is only available in icloud". Since when did I do that?
When I attempt to download from icloud I get the following error message "There was a problem downloading. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation".
What can I do now ?? Can I revert back and will this sort the problem?
Many thanks

The skin may never be made compatible.
To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
