My computer wont let me download the new itunes

I have clicked on "check for updates" in itunes and it tells me there is a new itunes to download, so when i click on down load it goes to my system softwear updates which after a very long time "checking" comes back and tells me there is nothing to update. But i know there is. I have sucsessfully downlaoded the new itunes on my iphone and ipad but just wont do it on my macbook. Any ideas why?

Go to Apple's main iTunes page (see tabs at the top of your broser) and download it from there.
Back up your computer before installing any new software.  If the update does something you don't like this is the only way to revert.
Verify your hard drive with Disk Utility's First Aid.  If it reports problems then that has to be dealt with before you do anything else.
Use Disk Utility to repair permissions.
Download the update from Apple.  Some of us don't use Software Update to actually update, just so we know the installer file is safe and sound on our computers for use.
Install the update.
Repair permissions again.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • My ipod wont let me download the new ios 5 software

    My ipod is the third generation, which is compatible. But everytime i check for software update it says it is up to date.

    Please check the model number on the back. If it is A1288, it is really a 2nd generation and can not be upgraded beyond 4.2.1

  • Frustrated beyond belief.   Trying to download the new Itunes 11 version so I can sync my phone.   It goes thru the whole process, says I was successful and then I get a message - "Apple Mobile Device Failed to start----retry, and retry, same message.

    On my desk computer, I tried to download the new Itunes 11 version.   I had Itunes 10.  It goes thru the whole process and then says "Apple Mobilve Devide failed to start, Verify you have sufficient privileges to start service.   I hit retry and then I get  Installation successful followed by error 126.   I can not enter Itunes at all now.   If I click on the former icon it says  MSVCR80.dll for error.   I can't even figure out how to ask for support on this website.   I have several devices linked to Itunes and need to sync.

    Solving the iTunes Installation Problems in Windows
    1. Apple has posted their solution here: iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows- Unable to install or open - MSVCR80 issue.
    2. If the Apple article does not fully resolve the problem for you, then try Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates - MSVCR80.

  • Wont let me install the new version says i havent restarted the computer which i have about 4 times..

    Deleted the old version through the control panel.....and went to reinstall the new version and it keeps telling me to restart computer..
    I have done this about 4 times but it still wont let me install the new vversion of firefox

    This can occur if Firefox can not find the profile folder or the profile folder is locked. Try the options on this page - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_in_use
    Start with the sections on "Remove the profile lock file" and "Check the profile folder name and location"
    If you are trying for a completely clean installation with no bookmarks or passwords, you can completely remove the profile folder as shown in the "Removing user profile data" section of this page - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox

    Hi woodspirit-
    There are many places that offer Firefox for download, but not all of them are trustworthy. I would recommend getting the latest version here:

    Hopefully that will help.

  • My computer wont let me download MP3 rocket because it says its in DOS mode.  Im 14 so if someone could help me turn it off step by step thank you.

    My computer wont let me download MP3 rocket because it says its in DOS mode.  Im 14 so if someone could help me turn it off step by step thank you.

    From what I know, MP3 Rocket is a program that will only work on a Windows computer. They don't make a version that will work on a Mac.
    If you need to convert Youtube files to MP3, then you may want to try Smart Converter. It is available in the App Store for free. Just launch App Store, then look in the Top Charts section, under FREE, select "see all", and look for the the download shown below.
