New itunes wont work on my G5 and now i cant backup my devices

Ok, i litterally just found out a few min ago that i need the latest and gratest itunes to even sync my devices (iphone 4) how am i to sync my phone? I have apps on it which require physically connecting them to my computer. Any ideas out there? i can still sync my ipad but it has IOS 5.1.1. If i cant sync my phone im just going to have to go back to IOS 5.1.1.
Computer - G5 dual 2.5, OS 10.5.8
iPhone 4, 16gig, IOS 6.0

If you have an iPhone5 you have to use iTunes 10.7.  If you have anything else, especially older equipment even with iOS6, you can use iTunes 10.6.3 which will run on a G5.
iTunes 10.6.3.25 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1575
Remember with an older computer you will find more and more hardware and software will not work with it.  You should pay attention to system requirements before updating anything or buying new components.

  • The new itunes update will not install properly and now itunes wont work at all

    k, so I tried installing the new update for itunes and now it wont work at all. it says that the mobile device isnt installed. i have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes 4 times now.

    My issue is it wont even reinstall onto my computer
    Yes I'm aware of that. The procedures are also for trying in cases where iTunes can't be reinstalled due to a "Could not start Apple Mobile Device service" message.
    If you're getting a different error message relating to the Apple Mobile Device Service (or Apple Mobile Device Support) when you try to reinstall iTunes, post back to let us know what that error message says. (Precise text, please.)

  • New Itunes wont work!!! :-(

    I dont know whats going on, when i opened itunes it said that there was a new update and i was all like ya!!!....Not any more!!! When i was downloading the quick times part there was some errar and it said i could debug. so i did and everthing was fine. When i went to open up itunes it would not open at all. It would just show the bizzy icon and then nother. I removed both itunes and quick times and then trying to reinstall but still nothing. No errar this time but sill wont work. Need help plzzz.

    i'm getting the exact same thing on my computer and i don't like it, iTunes has only gotten more and more problems ever since v.4(the version i started with), it seems like they need to take MORE TIME on the updates before they put them out and instead of having us have to hunt for the fix to the problem we're having and fixing it ourselves they should make corrected updates. all i know is i'm growing more displeased with each update of iTunes. am i the only one that feels this way???

  • My new IPad 2 mini its dead. Cant be on. Its  working for two days and now I cant make it on. How and what I need to do?

    I got new I Pod 2. Two days was working perfect. At the one moment it was off. Now I cant make it on. Its dead. Can you help me?

    Make an appointment at your local apple store and have them look at it.
    Have you tried to charge it? Plugged into the wall with the supplied power brick. If the battery is dead it'll remain off until it gets enough power to turn on.
    So before you try the apple store you can try plugging it in, maybe over night, and see if that helps. If that doesn't, make the appointment and let the pros look at it.

  • TS3376 what is going on with the find my iphone app,i use IOS 6.1.1 and i have updated the find my iphone app and now i cant locate my device

    some help or some explanation would be nice because i rly need this app and now after the update im not able to locate my device

    Not sure if it would help or not, but if you haven't already done so, some things you could try are:
    Tap Sign Out on the top right of the app, then sign back in
    Force close the app by going to the home screen, double-tapping the home button, locating the app in the list at the bottom, tapping and holding the app until it wiggles, tapping to close it, then tapping the home button again.
    Go to Settings>iCloud on your phone, turn Find My iPhone off, the after a minute or so, turn it back on.

  • My iphone is frozen on the apple logo. I was downloading the new itunes but then the cable disconnected and now it has an apple logo and the download line. It's been like this for the whole day and none of the buttons work. Help?

    A bit of help please?

    Try a force restart by holding the power and home button down at the same time. One of two things will PROBABLY happen; 1) It will boot into iOS as normal. 2) You will get an iTunes logo with a USB cable at the bottom. If the second happens you will need to plug it into iTunes to do a restore. If neither of these happen, force restart again. Once the phone powers off, let go of both buttons and push and hold the home button and plug the phone into iTunes. This will force the phone into recovery mode. Proceed with a restore at that point.

  • I plugged my I phone in to my computer last night, it asked me if I wanted to download new itunes applications, there was an error and now my phone is locked with the itunes logo and the plug shown on the screen

    my phone is locked, I tried to hard boot, nothing is working. I have the i tunes logo on the screen with the plug showing, but I can not get away from the screen, what do I do?

    Same thing happened to me last week had to update than said some sort of error so it told me to restore I did that and it said restore couldnt be completed !! So I called my service provider and I had to press the circle button and the power button and hold for 15 seconds while still plugged in to the comp , than to try and restore and than update !! And it worked !! Hope that helps!!

  • I installed the new itunes 11.0.4 on windows and now some of my movies will not play

    Some of my movies will play in itunes, but some of them make it crash and I have played them previously in other versions of Itunes.  Is anyone else having the same trouble?  Also, it is putting some of my movies in the home video file and not the movie files.  Any suggestions on that?  thanks

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, does your device connect without that message now?

  • I stuffed around with itunes and now I cant see my device when I connect...Please help??

    Please help I am a total spaz with itunes! lol I can't see my device in itunes..

    Hello there chester,
    It sounds like your iPhone is no longer recognized in iTunes when you plug it in. I recommend the steps from the following article to help troubleshoot what you are seeing:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538
    This is an overview of the troubleshooting to be done:
    1. Update iTunes
    2. Check the USB cable
    3. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    4. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service
    5. Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed
    6. Check for third-party software conflicts
    If the issue persists, I would next try uninstalling iTunes and all its associated softwares with either of the following articles depending on your version of Windows. Note: this will not affect your iTunes Library.
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
    or
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

    If you followed these instructions and you were unable to enter recovery mode, I'm still leaning toward a hardware problem.  Also, since you have IOS-7, read this.  It might help.

    Haven't really used any of them including VLC - actually use netflix on the ipad more than anything. I was able to drop an mp4 into imovie on my ipad and see it there. This was something I had shot as avhcd and converted with turbo.264. Played fine. Probably not what you want for a movie player though.
    Well, turbo.264 is indeed very nice to have - even for converting full-sized movies. (Nevertheless, TechRadar's latest roundup (see http://www.techradar.com/news/software/applications/6-of-the-best-video-converte rs-for-mac-1074303 ; also linked from another roundup at http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/benchmark-excellent-multimedia-converter-handb rake-vs-commercial-apps ) has shown it's still worse than HandBrake in most respects.)
    All H.264 files (assuming they are H.264 level 4.1 or lower) are compatible with the built-in Videos app.

    Those of you who use other players, what do you reccomend? Just curious.
    It entirely depends on your needs. The top players (AVPlayerHD / ProPlayer, It's Playing, GoodPlayer) all have different strengths and weaknesses. I myself use It's Playing the most as I convert everything into MP4 and simply love the DSP's (brightness / volume / saturation boosting). (Its software decoders are definitely worse than those of AVPlayerHD / ProPlayer; however, MP4's are played back from hardware.)

  • Firefox is refusing to start. It says that my profile is missing, which it appears to be. Yet the way in which one goes about creating a new profile wont' work either. Anybody have a bloody clue what's going on and how to fix it?

    AIR give you classes to detect an on-line or off-line status, it's in 
    this way for the sake of flexibility for instance what happens if you 
    only what to sync  data only on Saturdays at 2 am? If it were done 
    automatically that'll be a problem. And it isn't so complicated.
    You can download the SalesBuilder from AIR examples at www.adobe.com/devnet/air
      it's an application that does everything you have in mind.
    I don't understand your question abou file types.
    An AIR app can communicate with almost every backend served tech 
    CF, .Net, PHP, RoR.
    Sincerely,
    Michael

    Sorry but I don't quiet understand. I thought AIR did the updating 
    automatically? I didn't realise the developer had to program the 
    logic of how the updates take place?  Is it a case in most AIR apps 
    that when online the app updates the server and once every intervel 
    (of however long) the local SQLite DB is synced to the more updated 
    server DB. Then when offline the developer has to sense that the app 
    is offline and store a log manually of the updates without any help 
    from AIR itself, and then update once it comes online again?
    >
    Can AIR link to anything more than a database on the server side 
    apart from webservices, for example .as files or any other file types?
    >
    What type of server is a Flex app stored on, is it a specific Adobe 
    server rather than a Java or .NET server?

    Thank you so much for your last comment!
