Need older version of itunes

I lost my Itunes when I installed a new Hard drive and my macbook is too old to install the OS, so the new Itunes 10 will not install. I am having a hard time finding a link to an older version of itunes... How can I find this?

You need iTunes 9.2.1 if you're using 10.4.11 and iTunes 10.6.3 if you're using 10.5.8.

Have an older 17 MacBook Pro, running OS 10.5.8. Software update says everyting is current. Just bought new iPhone 5S. Mac won't recognize phone, says I need newer version of iTunes. Have no problem with computer recognizing old phone or iPad.

Have an older 17 MacBook Pro, running OS 10.5.8. Software update says everyting is current. Mac doesn't have iCloud, preferences still shows MobileMe. Just bought new iPhone 5S. Mac won't recognize phone, says I need newer version of iTunes. Have no problem with computer recognizing old phone 3 or 1-1/2 year old iPad. I suspect I need to update OS, but as software update isn't telling me to do so, can I? What version would I need to go to?

Your MacBook Pro can be updated to run Mac OS X "Snow Leopard". Buy it. That will enable you to run the latest iTunes version.

I want to sync my Pre with my Mac.... does anyone have access to an older version of itunes? probably need version prior to 8.0... at least

I called Apple to complain... fat lot of good that did, but it made me feel better I guess.
It occurs to me that what I really need is an older version of itunes... does anyone know what would be the best one to sync with Pre?
Judging from version tracker on cnet, I'm guessing that I need Version 8.0 but I don't know for sure...
Does anyone have a clue where I can get that? If so, please contact me personally because I know there are Apple trolls on here.
thanks
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

thank you for the help HB, I probably should have specified that I am on a Mac and do not have Windows OS. I think the link is for Windows, Vista, etc.
I found the link, and downloaded, but received this message:
The document "The document "iTunesSetup.exe" could not be opened. Airport Admin Utility cannot open files in the "Airport Admin Utility document" format."
I'm afraid I can't find anything online to help my understanding with this... I don't think it'll work for me anyway.
Does anyone know when Palm is going to do something to allow sync with itunes again?

Since the iTunes update to 10.6 everytime I open iTunes there is an error message that says that iTunes has encountered an error and needs to shut down. Is there a way to fix this or go back to an older version of iTunes?

Ever since the update, when I load iTunes it encounters an error and force closes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything Apple twice and that hasn't fixed the issue. Is there a way to go back to an older version of iTunes?

Need older version of 64bit itunes

Does anyone know where I can get an older version of 64bit Itunes? I'm looking for maybe v8.0.11 or something. The latest version, 8.0.2 prevents all my purchased music as well as the itunes store previews to not play at all!! I'm hoping an older version may do the trick.

yes, I found this site that has all older versions of itunes downloads.

The older version of itunes cannot be removed. contact your technical support group.

need help with itunes 12.1
my itunes was working just fine on my windows 7 pro PC.
Update 12.1 popped up and I clicked download and install and now all of my itunes is gone.
I uninstalled all Apple software packages, and also pain stakingly went thru my registry line by line and deleted all references to itunes, apple, quicktime, etc., then downloaded fresh downloads of the installer and each time I get just about to the end of the installer and a window pops up and says
"the older version of itunes cannot be removed. contact your technical support.
So, I tried downloading the previous version 11.4 and 10.7 64bit installers and then the system won't even get started doing an install when the system responds...
"a newer version of itunes is already installed", and the installer quits.
I have cleaned my registry now about 5 times, I ran all of the apps to clean my PC of all of the apple and itune files. I am an administrator on my PC. I also went as far as creating a second administrator and switching under that account and still get the same responses.
I have removed any attached external drives and tried the installer.
I have tried to install itunes under a different folder location instead of the default C:\Program Files directory.
I have tried to install via the Apple Software Upgrade utility as well as direct downloads of the installers.
All of my music is gone.
When I run the installer now, all of the other apple software files install ok, with the exception of itunes. It gets nearly complete when the "older version" error comes up then I notice it backs off the installation and no files or directories are created.
There is nothing in the Control Panel 'Add/Remove Programs' as far as iTunes, their are no directories or files, yet it still sees a old version of itunes referenced in some file on the pc.
I ran a couple of utilities such as CCleaner, Everything, Revo Uninstaller and Registry Reviver, as well as going thru regedit line by line for hours to remove references to apple and itunes - all still with the same results.
Either I get a 'the older version cannot be removed' or 'a newer version of itunes is already installed'
very frustrated.
anyone have a installer that will complete ignoring any errors?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If you are running 64-bit Windows and the above steps haven't helped try installing the version of iTunes that can be downloaded from this support document. iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
If you still have no luck try reinstalling iTunes 12.0, links in the user tip.

Playlists from an older version of iTunes not working in iTunes 9

Im trying to transfer my itunes music from my external hard drive onto my new computer. My previous computer was running an older version of itunes, and when i try to transfer the music over from that hard drive (i simply move the whole itunes folder onto the new computer), the playlists dont make it, but the music does. How do I get the playlists from an older version of itunes into itunes 9?

Go to iTunes>File>Devices>Transfer iTunes purchases

For non-Tunes purchases you need a third-party program. The following list some of those

I have an older version of itunes on a separate drive. Everytime that there has been an update to itunes it will not let me update. Now I purchased an iphone and I hooked the phone up to the computer and it tells me I need to install the latest version of itunes. I downloaded to try it, but I keep getting an error message that says itunes.Resources is not a valid short file name. What can I do from here?

That is a new one on me.

You shouldn't need to. Just update the iTunes application or download the newest version from here.

What version of iTunes is on the computer? You need at least 11.4.

Where can I download older versions of itunes?

Having recently update itunes for my Mac Mini to 8.0.2 it will not open, so I cannot play my music. I would like to reinstall an older version of iTunes does anyone know where I can download one?

HI Hello,
Reinstalling an older version of iTunes on our Mac is not a good idea. Perhaps some easy maintenance suggestions will help.
Try running Disk Utility and Repairing Disk Permissions first. Launch Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities). Select MacintoshHD 10.x.x in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab, then click: Repair Disk Permissions. Quit DU when it's finished and reboot. Try to launch iTunes... if it still won't open..
/Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag this file from the Preferences folder: com.apple.itunes.plist to your Desktop. Try to launch iTunes. If iTunes launches successfully, then that .plist file is corrupted. Drag it to the Trash, empty the Trash and reboot. You will have to reset your iTunes preferences but if deleting this file fixes the problem, then it's worth effort.
If you still have problems with iTunes, then perhaps an Archive and Install is in order. Back up all your important data/images/video/documents. When you are finished with the installation, at some point you will be prompted for an iTunes update. If you had good luck with 8.0.1, just don't go any farther with the updates for now.
If you need help with an Archive and Install, please post back.

HT1947 Can I go back to an older version of iTunes that'll support both my iPhone 4S w/iOS6 and my MacBook running Leapord 10.5.8?

Can I go back to an older version of iTunes that'll support both my iPhone 4S w/iOS6 and my 2009 MacBook running Leapord 10.5.8? I simply want everything to work the way it had been forever until recently. However, I can't imagine Apple would intentionally make their own products obsolete by rendering them useless through a software "upgrade." My MacBook is only 3 yrs old so I feel like I am simply missing 1 piece to this puzzle in order for things to start working again. I have my MacBook, iPod and iPhone 4S all set up to install updates automatically so if I need to uninstall certain updates and revert back to ones that work will that even be an option? Thanks

The only version of iTunes which will support both is version 10.6.3.

Please help I need this ..

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Akeenleyside,
Are you removing your Apple software in an attempt to update to iTunes 10.5? I ask this because I am getting the same message when trying to install iTunes 10.5.
