My Macbook won't download newest version of itunes
My Macbook (purchased in 2008) won't download the newest version of itunes that my iphone 5 needs to sync with my computer. Help!
You need to upgrade to OS X 10.6 in order to install the newer version of iTunes.

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

Why won't the newest version of iTunes download on my PC?
I tried downloading the newest version of iTunes today and there were some issues so it suggested that I reinstall. I tried doing that, but now I am getting an error message that says "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privledges to start system services. I recently switched from and iPhone 4s to a Samsung Galaxy S4. Could this be the issue? What should I do to get past this
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.

Just got an iPad. I have a PowerPC G4 OS X 10.4.11 at home (Tiger). I tried to sync with my iTunes but it says I need iTunes 10.1 or later. I tried to download the newest version of iTunes and it says I need OS X 10.5 (Leopard) or later. How do I use my iPad without having to upgrade my home G4 to a Leopard?
If anyone can help me get around this, I really appreciate it!I am pretty sure that you can still but Leopard - maybe even search the online Apple Store.
If it were feasible and affordable, the ideal situation would be to upgrade your Mac - buy a new one with Snoe Leopard on it. That's easier said than done with you having just bought an iPad. But Leopard will be as high as you can go on the Power PC and soon Lion will be here.
I recently (3 months ago) upgraded my Leopard MacBook to Snow Leopard in anticipation of Lion. I love Macs and Apple products, but at some point, as with other tech devices, you have to upgrade to keep up with the technology.
Good luck! -
Unable to download newest version of ITunes and sync IPad
I have an old computer that we have used to sync our devices. After the IOS update I tried to sync my IPad2 to the computer however it wants me to update ITunes. This comuter has fallen into disrepair and will not allow me to download the newest version of ITunes. We are going to start using a new computer however there is data on the old computer that is not on the device and we need to sync it before disposing of this computer and moving our data to another computer.
Any ideas on what I can do?I am pretty sure that you can still but Leopard - maybe even search the online Apple Store.

Computer crash after downloading newest version of iTunes
I downloaded and installed the newest version of iTunes a couple of days ago and now the music is not showing up on my 30 gig ipod. I can tell the music is on there because the capacity on my ipod shows the same as before. Upon realizing this problem, I re-connected my ipod and re-started itunes. Itunes showed that my ipod was synking for a long time and It eventually locked up my computer. Now when I start it is is extremely slow (5 minutes to open up the control pannel)and basically locks up anytime I try to open a web page or uninstall itunes.
Can you help?Does anyone know of a support phone # I could call?

Cannot download newest version of iTunes, Updater has damaged iTunes install
I ran iTunes a few days ago and it told me there was a new version. So, I started to download it via the Apple updater software. Well, it failed. And failed. I then went to the iTuens website to just manually grab the installer. And it says it's trying, but I never get the notice that the file is downloading. And now, iTunes will not start. I think I have an old installer somewhere, but it will do this again the moment I start iTunes. Is this a know issue currently? Is there a fix for now, or do we just have to wait?
It is known here on the forums, but there is no official "fix". However there is an effective user tip by tt2 that will help you here: Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates

My Playlist only appear in the itunes when the ipod is connected , and I can not drag a song into a playlist, Also I repeatedly get a message to authorize the songs purchased in order to sync the ipod. I followed the instructions in the help menu on doing this but nothing seems to work, Help anybody ? Have installed the lastest version of itunes and I'm running windows XP. Thanks
Is it possible that you are not seeing the thirteenth song because you did not scroll all the way down within the playlist?
Hope this helps!

can anyone help with this issue
Even though you're using a later version of iTunes, I'd first try the following document:

Help!
I synced my iPhone 4, but it keeps getting the red exclamation points and an error message when I try to download the latest software. And, it won't let me restore the phone without the latest software. I'm stuck.
Then, this morning, the phone locked up completely. I got it to turn off finally, by holding down the power button and home button at the same time for more than 10 seconds. But still no luck with the software download.
It's Thanksgiving, and can't go to Apple.
My phone is my only telephone (no home phone), and I use it to keep track of two email addresses (personal and work). So I'm anxious to have it fully operational.
Suggestions? Thanks!!!one can't update itunes or safari seperate on the iphone those 2 are a part of the ios update
you need to update your computer and then update your phone
or if you have ios5 I guess you can update from settings -
I transfered my I tunes library to my new laptop using a thumb drive. I downloaded the newest version of Itunes to my new computer. My old ITUNES library of songs and books came across just fine. I can play them on the new laptop but they won't sync with my Ipod. The Itunes shows no devices when I hook it up to the laptop. Windows recognizes that the IPOD is hooked up. But no connection with ITUNES. Did I make a mistake in trying to sync my Itunes purchases to the new laptop before transfering the old library into the new ITUNES. If so how do I undo the problem. Please help. I use a PC with Windows XP.

Just downloaded the newest version of Itunes. Now my Iphone 4s won't sync with Calendar in XP Outlook. Has anyone else had this problem, and how did you fix it? I've already made sure the proper check boxes are on in Itunes and tried the reset sync history. Also re-downloaded Itunes again. Same problem.
Well, OSX 10.9.2 is free, which should solve the iTunes problem, but 10.9.2 isn't bug free, & you'll lose the ability to run any PPC Apps if that important, as well as needing to update many Apps & Printer Drivers.

My itunes store won't open. Any suggestions on how to get this to work? I've already downloaded the newest version of itunes. I'm also not sure what Mac operating system I have..
To find the version of Mac OS X on your computer, all you have to do is click the Apple logo and then About this Mac. For more info, take a look at this doc -> Finding your OS X version and build information
Do you see an error when you try to open the iTunes Store on your Mac?
This Apple doc is a good place to start -> iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
