Not a single update itunes has worked for me

I thought I knew a little about computers but now I just feel like an idiot. DLing the new itunes 7.3.2 has completely stumped me. I don't even know what version I had before I DL b/c it completely wiped it out of my system. 7.3.2 needs higher operating system so I've tried DLing 3 or 4 other versions of itunes and it's becoming ridiculous. I feel like all my music has just been completely taken away from me, not really I just can't listen to it. So I tried updating to OSX 4.10 and apparently "My volume does not meet the requirements for the update". Is this normal, I thought downloading was easy?!?!?!??!

Do NOT even think about downgrading to Panther 10.3.9, even though it is a very stable OS. Many Panther users that I know have always thought that Tiger (in all it's versions) was a work-in-progress leading to Leopard.
But in your case, you already have Tiger 10.4.(2/3)? installed; don't look for more trouble. At the very least upgrade Tiger to 10.4.7 by following the steps in my earlier post.
In addition, delete the following files PRIOR to Updating a COMBO version of Tiger from the website:
iTunes 7.4 application (located in /Applications)
com.apple.iTunes.plist (from ~/Library/Preferences)
iTunes.pkg (from /Library/Receipts)
iTunesX.pkg (from /Library/Receipts)
Delete third-party ShapeShifter, if installed.
Also make sure you have the latest version of QuickTime(7.2) installed BEFORE downloading iTunes.

    I suddenly cannot access my AOL E mail account via my iPhone. Has worked for ages. Now says username or passowrd is incorrect which it is not! Have reset the phone but still no joy. Any ideas........please! Martyn

    Is there any chance your AOL account has been hacked?  Check it to make sure your password is still what you think it is.
    Also make sure caps lock isn't on when typing your password.

    Did you fail to look at the requirements before purchasing?
    All sales are final.  You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception

  • Adobe update refuses to work for CS6 and Photoshop elements. App manager refuses to install.

    Adobe update refuses to work for CS6 and Photoshop elements. App manager refuses to install. Support Advisor is of no help.Anyone had the same problem? It has all worked perfectly for some years now, but refuses this week.Has Adobe changed something.Windows 7.

    What exactly means "refuses"?
    This is the message which comes up if I try to update (from the Help menu) or re-install my licenced copies of CS6 or Photoshop Elements 9.
    “We've encountered the following issues
    Installer failed to initialize.Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem”
    Get Adobe Support Advisor”
    OR
    on trying to open PhotoshopCS6 I get this message:-
    “Adobe Application Manager required to start your trial, is missing or damaged.
    Please download a new copy of Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/go/applicationmanager_uk”
    When I follow these instructions and try and start up/install or update Photoshop CS6 I get the same messages all over again. This has been going on since Tuesday afternoon and I am anxiuous to resolve the problem. For several years now all this has worked perfectly through your website and I cannot understand what has changed.  Once I cancel these messages the products themselves seem to function OK. When I attempt to use Adobe Update Manager I get the same messages as above. You will see that my products are properly licensed and up to date. Have you any solution?

  • Can't get itunes to work for windows xp 64 bit

    I can't get itunes to work for windows xp 64 bit. It won't even download.

    These are the Windows requirements according to the iTunes dpownload site http://www.apple.com/uk/itunes/download/http://:
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later; 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8
    64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
    xp 64 bit is not mentioned but it doesn't seem to be supported for the latest ITunes so it seems that you're out of luck.

    just dont understand why the new iTunes need a newer OS X
    Fair is not a valid point. No one ever said life was fair.
    The larger queustion is can it meet the specs for Snow Leoard.

    Mail suddenly marks as spam what is not and viceversa.
    It has worked perfectly until a few days ago. How can I restore the old junk "learnt" list, since it is marking as SPAM senders who have been my correspondants for years?? Where is the old junk pref file to be found?

    Why start a new and very similar thread to your other one which you have not responded to (have you read the replies?)
    I suggest that no response is made to this duplicate thread.

  • The itunes store works for everything except apps, how do I fix this??

    the itunes store works for books, music etc but NOT apps - how do I fix this?  I downloaded the latest version and that did not help.

    You have posted in the mac Apps Store forum, which is entirelt different than the itunes store adn teh apps store from within the itunes store.
    Are you looking for apps for your computer ( he Mac app store) or apps for your ipod/iphone/ipad ( itunes app store)?

  • ITUNES ONLY WORKS FOR 5 MINUTES AT A TIME

    iTunes stopped working about a month ago, but then I fixed it using the msconfig solution. It worked for a while now I have the same problem, i can fix it, but then iTunes only works for about five minutes before closing. This is the only way I can fix it; first, by re-installing iTunes, then, doing the msconfig solution and restarting the computer. Then after about 5 minutes it closes. To open it again I have to go through the whole proccess. I cannot figure out how to permanently fix it.

    Sounds like you have some malware that is interfering with iTunes.
    What do you have to turn off in msconfig to get iTunes working?
    It's pretty involved to remove it. If you have purchased security software like Norton or McAfee, I suggest contacting them for help.
    Otherwise try this

  • A barcode scanner that was connected directly to the Mac's USB port stopped working as the "USB had too much power drawn", even though it has worked for over a year in that port.  WHen we plugged it into the port on the keyboard, the device works. Why?

    A barcode scanner that was connected directly to the Mac's USB port stopped working as the "USB had too much power drawn", even though it has worked for over a year in that port.  When we plugged it into the port on the keyboard, the device works. Why?  Obviously the device is operational.  Could the USB port have burned out from having too much power drawn?  If so, is it reparable?

    It can't draw "too much" power, it can only draw as much as the USB port is able to provide and no more. IIRC, the keyboard port has a lower power output than the iMac's port.
    That being said, yea, it's possible that the port has failed and it can be replaced or if another port works you can use that one. Although if it is still under warranty or covered by Apple Care, then I would take it to an Apple Store or service provider to get the port repaired.

    So my computer is running on OSX but my question is if any of the viruses on my windows partition can still run and communicate information to their 'master' as there is still a supply of electricity? Sorry if its obvious.
    Here's a positive thing: Windows viruses can't run on OS X, but they can be transferred from OS X to other PCs (only if you have them on the OS X volume).

    You could get a virus from a different source that infected Steam and Chrome without any problem. Viruses normally try to infect as many files and programmes as possible.
