Need to update iTunes but cannot updat to OS X 10.5 from OS X 10.4.11. How do I do this?

Need. Help. How do I update to OS X 10.5

To upgrade to Leopard 10.5, you need to buy it. Call the Apple online store, in the US, at 800-MY-APPLE. As of a few weeks ago, they still had some 10.5 Leopard in stock. If they are out of stock, http://www.hardcoremac.com has new unopened Apple software, including Leopard.
If you have an Intel-based iMac, that meets the requirements below, you could probably go to 10.6 Snow Leopard, instead of Leopard. Snow Leopard requires:
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Snow Leopard can be ordered through the online Apple Store at, in the US: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA

I can't sort iTunes U lectures properly. I can sort them properly on my laptop in iTunes, but when I transfer them to my iPhone, they are all jumbled up. How can I fix this?

I'm using my iPhone for listenting to lectures on iTunes U. When I download lectures to my laptop, they are sometimes arranged non-sequentially. I can fix this by renaming the files (e.g., with numbers in the titles), and then sorting by title. However, when I transfer the audio lectures to my iPhone, they are all sorted by "release date" (and frequently the release date is the same for each lecture), and this screws up the ordering. This means that when I'm listening to the lectures, they are all out of order.
I can find no setting on the iPhone for changing the ordering of lectures in iTunes U, nor can I find a way of changing such things when the iPhone is plugged into my laptop. For example, when I connect the iPhone to the laptop, and open iTunes, I select the device (i.e., the iPhone), look at the lectures in iTunes U, and iTunes will not let me change the column that sorts the files.
Any suggestions about how to correct this problem?

You can sort your library by adding a Sorting info in the File Info. Select a file in iTunes U, press cmd + i, choose Sorting Tab. For example add a Sort Name. For each file you have to put a value into that field, I did it with 01, 02, 03 .. 12. I do not know if this works if you select multiple files, but I did not try.
The next time you sync your device, your files will be in order. It' ve tested it on an iPad2.
If you ask me, there must be a better solution for that problem as the files have a track number saved in the info as well, and it is quite annoying to add the sorting order manually.

HT4972 I've downloaded the iOS5 update to my computer/Itunes, but cannot find it on my computer to update my IPOD?

I've downloaded the iOS5 update to my computer/Itunes, but cannot find it on my computer to update my IPOD?

How did you download it? If by the iTunes update button, just connect the iPod to the computer and click on update.

After the latest update, all my apple products reverted to an old icloud account. As it no longer exists, I cannot get into it to delete it and add the correct id. How can I change this, especially on my Macbook pro?

After the latest update, all my apple products reverted to an old icloud account. As it no longer exists, I cannot get into it to delete it and add the correct id. How can I change this, especially on my Macbook pro? There is no p/w related to it and even though I tried to reset "password" it won't allow as the id does not exist, neither does the email associated with the old id. How do I switch it to a newer id?

It's all rather odd because the old account cannot 'no longer exist' - if you don't have the correct password you won't be able to get into it, but you can't actually delete an iCloud account from the server.
I'm afraid you will need the services of iCloud Support. If you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support and you may be asked to pay a fee.

I can import music to itunes but cannot sycn to ipod

I can import files to itunes, but cannot sync to my ipod classic?

glutius
My problem exactly, for over a year. I now have new songs on my updated iTunes but stilll have my old (but different) songs on my 2008 Classic iPod that I don't want to lose.
I just read that the latest iTunes update may have solved this problem. Is this true?!? I've been dealing with this problem for such a long time now, I'm afraid of even trying to re-sync without more information.
Does anyone have the latest info on this?
Glutius, I'd like to know if/how you solved this issue and I wonder if anyone has found Wondershare or Emicsoft to be helpful? Help

HT1711 Need to upgrade iTunes but laptop says it can't because iTunes was improperly installed. If I uninstall, will I loose everything?

I need to upgrade iTunes but my laptop say's it can't because iTunes was improperly installed to begin with. If I uninstall iTunes, will I loose all the work I've put into my downloads and my playlists?

No.
However, you do maintain complete and regular backups of your computer, correct?
For iTunes, the iTunes library is the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder.
