Correct. When you purchase devices, they would have stated the OS they needed to work, on the box. This can be overlooked, but it is very important to check when purchasing.
You current OS, is so old, that they technology build into the new devices, is not something your OS understands. It didn't exist when your OS was created, and therefore you need to upgrade the OS to work with the newer technology of these devices.
10.6 software is not downloadable. You must purchase a DVD disc. You can order it from the on-line apple store

I assume the podcasts you have are the mp3 or other audio files rather than a podcast feed in iTues or another rss reader? You can simply drag the audio files into iTunes, though they will appear in the 'Music' list since iTunes has know way of knowing that they come from a podcast.
You can change the 'Media Kind' in the get Info pane (menu File>Get Info>Options pane) to 'Podcast' but each file will appear as a podcast with no title, containing the single episode.

After installing iTunes, Flash no longer exports .MOV format...

Hi -
I have been using Flash 8 to do animated titling for my podcasts.
But after installing iTunes 7, Flash 8 will no longer export .MOV format. It tells me a Quicktime compenent cannot be found.
Also, QuickTime Pro will not actually play Flash .SWF files. Not sure if this worked before, I never tried it. But it seems to be a QuickTime feature that doesn't work on my machine.
Flash 8
iTunes 7.0.0.70
QuickTime Pro 7.1.3
Any suggestiones or explanations?
I really need to export my Flash animations to .MOV format. It's part of my work scheme. Workarounds cause loss of quality.
Thanks,
Dave Ferreira
([email protected])

Recent security issues has had QuickTime 7.1.3 Player set Flash (inside .mov files) to "disabled".
Any user can re-enable Flash inside .mov files by checking a box in the QuickTime Control Panel (PC) or System Preferences (Mac).
QuickTime Player uses a much older version of Flash and only allows those "published" as version 5, or lower, be used.
The security issues are real. The solution for those of us that use Flash (.swf) inside our QuickTime content is more complex.
If a solution isn't reached between Apple and Adobe about a more modern use of Flash inside QuickTime files I plan on adding a text description (on my Web pages) for the steps to re-enable Flash functionality in my QuickTime files that use Flash.

Can I install itunes without formatting ipod?

Alo.
Ok...
so my job keeps me on the road constantly, ie: not at the 'home' computer, where I first added some songs to my 60g ipod.
What my question is, is there any way that I can put the CD in, instal itunes, and continue past the step telling me to format without actually formatting.
I've been looking for an answer for about 2 hours now, and can't see any way to do this, short of going to the home computer, and changing the settings to 'manual' instead of 'automatic'.
I would really like to put more songs onto my ipod, but don't want to lose what I have on there, and don't want to travel far to the 'home' computer in order to change the settings.
Is there a solution? Pleeeaase help me!

Hi Noel-
Although I may not understand exactly what you want to do, it sounds like you want to use your iPod on both computers without losing the music already on your iPod. You need to set the iPod to manual updating, but you can do this on any computer that has iTunes installed.
First, you can download iTunes by itself from this link and install it.
Then, to keep your iPod from automatically syncing with iTunes when you connect it to your computer, hold down the CTRL-SHIFT keys until iTunes fully launches. You'll then be able to go into iPod Options and change the syncing to manual.

Installing Itunes from CD, Ipod has been formatting for 36 hours?

Recieved Ipod as gift pre loaded, am installing Itunes from CD recieved in box. Was asked to format ipod, clicked format button, message appears 'waiting for ipod' progress bar is active and hard drive light is flashing. Have now been waiting 36 hours. Is this normal? The ipod says do not disconnect, I am anxious not to lose my pre loaded music.

Im not sure how you get an iPod pre loaded with music, unless the person who gave to to you has a gift preloaded it, but when you formatted/restored the iPod that wiped the iPOd clean. its not normal to be waiting that long. more on restoring can be found here http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
It depends on what type of iPod this is but if its a current one like a nano or 5G (Video) iPOd, it will have to be connected to your PC using a USB 2,0 port or a "High Speed" usb port (USB 2.0 has afew different names may be slightly different name in the UK compared to here in the US where I am).
You will have to manually eject the iPod using the "Safly remove" feature in windows with iTunes closed if its open. this shows up as a lil icon with a green arrow in the bottom right corner of windows.
After that you will disable any antivirus programs that may be interfering with the iPod and iTunes during its first setup on your PC. Download the latest iPod updater here install it and then run it with the iPod connected to restore the iPod and update the software on it http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/

I want re-format my PC, how do I back up my itunes before I format. The same PC is also used to back-up my iPhone4

Hi all,
Hope you can help.
I have a desktop PC which I want to reformat and reinstall Windows XP because I think I have a virus on it, I have also had the PC for 5 years and never done this opperation but I feel I should now.
I have also backed up my iPhone4 on the same PC (the one Itunes library its backed up on)
1. How do I back up my itunes onto an externall hard drive
2. How do I make sure that my iPhone will re-sync with Itunes once I reinstall Itunes on the PC after the format (ie I dont want to see that message that iPhone can only sync with one iTunes library)
3. Before I format the PC do I have to de-authorise my PC?
4. Once I reinstall windows XP and iTunes how do I make sure the my iPhone will recognise the itunes library so everything will sync again (ie. music, all, movies purchased items etc
5. Basically I want to reformat my PC and when I reconnect my iPhon/e it will be the same as before.
6. Are there certain files within the iTune folder that I need to vack-up
Hope somebody can help, as im a novice with Itunes and Apple based softwear.
Thank you in advance
Bhav P

Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer as you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new/rebuilt computer using the same tool used to back it up, ideally before installing iTunes.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.

Ipod not recognized after installing itunes 7.3

I've upgraded to itunes 7.3 on my Windows Vista desktop and now none of my IPODs are recognized and I'm getting the following message:
"your IPOD needs to be reformatted for use with Windows"
I've double checked and my IPOD shows that it is formatted for windows. And, when I go to try to restore my IPOD, I get an error message saying that it cannot be restored.
I do NOT have this problem on my Windows laptop - everything works fine with iTunes 7.3 on my laptop.
Is this a problem with Windows Vista and iTunes 7.3??
Does anyone have any ideas?

macfixit.com has instructions on how to go to oldapps.com and revert to iTunes 7.2 :
iTunes 7.3 (#3): Downgrading to iTunes 7.2; Deleting and restoring the library for -50 errors; more
Downgrading to iTunes 7.2 For many serious issues with iTunes 7.3, the only viable fix is reversion to iTunes 7.2. Unfortunately, Apple does not maintain old versions of iTunes. As such, if you did not keep a copy of the iTunes 7.2 installer (as described here), your options are limited. Fortunately, OldApps has a mirrored copy of iTunes 7.2 available for download.
In order to downgrade to iTunes 7.2, follow these steps:
1. Delete the following files:
The iTunes 7.3 application (located in /Applications)
com.apple.iTunes.plist (from ~/Library/Preferences)
iTunes.pkg (from /Library/Receipts)
iTunesX.pkg (from /Library/Receipts)
2. Download and install iTunes 7.2

I've been trying to install itunes on windows 7 but apple mobile device will not install

I've finally managed to narrow the problem down to the following file:
C:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Local\Temp\Rar$DIa0.119\AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi: The archive is corrupt
this is the file delivered with itunes and it's definitely causing the problem because when I try to install one I downloaded from
http://www.javakrypt.com/itunes/
it installed ok, however when I try to run itunes the amd driver is installed the ipod connects but itunes has a version issue with the AMD driver and asks for a reinstallation of itunes.
My question to apple is where can I download an incorrupted AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi file for the latest release of itunes, and can you pleas everify that the version you are deploying with the current version is not corrupted.(The first file I see when I extract the MSI file has a random character file name with no modified date and a size of 16640. WInrar refuses to extract any files from the msi file.
I believe many people are having this problem and if they can get this file it may their problem as well.

OK I've fixed the problem and my thanks go to redmars.com.au (link below plus copy of solution)
http://www.redmars.com.au/blog/itsupport/327
To summarise what I did I
0. the pnputil -e uninstallation didn't work for me so
1. modified the permissions on the C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\netaapl64.inf_amd64_neutral_hexidecidforyourcomputer folder so that I could access it
2. I deleted the files in this folder
3. Retried the install from command line with log file enabled but it still rolled back, but in the log file I noted it wasn't finding the netaapI64 files and when I checked the above folder these files were missing.
4. I tried copying the files from the msi file using winrar but this failed passing a file corrupted error message and files copied had a zero byte size (i.e. empty)
5. I copied the files from a friends folder who didn't have this problem files are (netaapI64.cat, netaapI64.inf, netaapI64.PNF, netaapI64.sys and wdfcoinstaller01009.dll)
6. retried the install from the command line and it worked. Started itunes connected itouch, it installed the drivers and the itouch appeared in itunes.
I can now access my ipod from itunes.
The only problem now you face now is how to get the uncorrupted files detailed above. Does anyone have a solution to this? Winrar states files are corrupted. but they obviously aren't otherwis ethe installation wouldn't work.
text for solution here follows :
I recently came across a problem on a Windows 7 64bit laptop where Apple's iTunes was failing to recognise a connected iPhone. It was giving a error that the wrong version of iTunes was installed and I should install the 64bit version of iTunes. As I had no idea how what had been performed up until this point I performed a full uninstall of iTunes. I then downloaded the latest version of iTunes 10.5.1 and ran through the installer. At one point during the install I noticed the install gave the message 'Rolling back action' and thought to myself this cannot be good.
At the end iTunes indicated it had a problem installing and I should try again. The weird thing is if you didn't pay attention to the message you could quite easily click on ok and iTunes will work except it'll fail to recognise any iPod, iPhone or iPad device. To help identify what actually failed to install I checked the windows services management console and found the Apple Mobile Device Service was missing. This makes sense because it's that service which communicates with the iPhone. The question is why was the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) failing to install?
To find out I needed to capture a log file of the install process. A bit of research helped me identify that the iTunes64Setup.exe contained 5 separate windows installer files:
AppleApplicationSupport.msi
AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi
AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi
Bonjour64.msi
iTunes64.msi
I needed to extract AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi from iTunes64Setup.exe so I could generate a install log. The solution is to install WinRAR which you can download here http://rarlab.com/download.htm. After extracting AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi to c:\temp (you can use any folder you like here) I opened a command prompt and issued these commands:
cd c:\temp
msiexec -i AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi -log AMDS.log
This will attempt to install the AMDS and generate an installation log c:\temp\AMDS.log. Looking through the log I found the install failed because the format of C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\netaapl64.inf_amd64_neutral_dc2c bd989eec1514\netaapl64.inf was invalid. I opened the file in question and found it to be completely blank. I coulnd't just delete the files in question because they are protected by the Windows operating system, and anyway the correct method to remove a driver package from the driver store is to use the pnputil.exe tool. However if the driver package didn't complete installation in the first place then it may not work, but it was always worth a try.
To use pnputil I needed to run a command prompt as an administrator. I Clicked Start, All Programs, and Accessories, then right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as Administrator. From the command prompt type I typed in pnputil.exe -e. This produced a list of installed driver packages. Looking through the list I was looking for something like this:
Published name : oem30.inf Driver package provider : Apple Class : Network adapters Driver date and version : 07/12/2011 1.8.4.2 Signer name : Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatibility Publisher
This is the Apple network adapter driver. The important information here is the Published name oem30.inf. To uninstall the driver use the command pnputil -d oem30.inf (replace oem30.inf with the correct published name for your PC). After this try and the install again: msiexec -i AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi -log AMDS.log. If this fails or as in my case the driver package doesn't show in the list of installed drivers you'll need to take more drastic (and potentially dangerous to your PC's health!) measures.
By default the files in the driver repository are read only and can only be modified by the Windows Operating System, and this is for a good reason. I needed to change the permissions on the driver package so I could delete the corrupt files. Caution proceed at your own risk, make a mistake here and your computer may stop working and a system restore or rebuild may be required.
The first thing I needed to do was to take ownership of the folder so I could change the permissions. From windows explorer I clicked on Folder and search options under the organize button. Next I clicked the view tab and clicked on Show hidden files, folders, and drives. By unticking hide extensions for known file types and unticking Hide protected operating system files I was able to view the files I needed to remove. From the windows explorer window I browsed to browse to C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\, which was now visible and right clicked the netaapl64.inf_amd64_neutral_dc2cbd989eec1514 folder and selected properties. I clicked the security tab and then the Advanced button. Under Advanced I clicked the Owner tab and then clicked the Edit button. From the change owner to: box I selected my username, and then ticked Replace owner on subcontainers and objects and clicked OK to set the changes.
Next I gave myself Full Control to the folder and files. Back on the Security tab I clicked the Edit button, and with Everyone highlighted in the Groups or user names I ticked full control in the Allow column. I clicked OK and accepted the warning message Windows presents about security and access problems. At this point I could delete the contents of the netaapl64.inf_amd64_neutral_dc2cbd989eec1514 folder.
I tried re-installing the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) using msiexec -i AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi -log AMDS.log command and I no longer got the Rolling back action error. All that I had left to do now was install iTunes again and the iPhone was now recognized when I connected it to the PC.

TS3212 Unable to instal Itunes in Windows 7 for want of a DLL file / installer error

Can anyone help me in installing the latest itunes. I have downloaded the setup file. When I try to instal, installation fails forwant of a DLL file / error in installer package. What should I do to successfully instal.
I have been using Itunes for so many years. But recently I formatted my laptop and installed the new OS, Windows 7. Previously I was using Windows XP, I did not have problem.
Is there any solution by enabling or disabling any of the service features under administrative tools in the control panel ?

Although you're getting a different error message, try the procedure from the following user tip with that one:
"The administrator has set policies to prevent this installation" error messages when installing iTunes for Windows on Windows Vista and Windows 7 systems

When I installed iTunes 11 on a windows 8 system I get the music, but the screen dosn't have te library on the left. The left side of iTunes is the name. I got the songs by using a external hard drive. What have I done wrong?

When I installed iTunes 11 on a Windows 8 system the installation did not seem to work correctly. There is no sidebar and no ribbon w/ File, Edit, etc. I tried to use an external hard drive to move from an older computer using XP to the new one w/ Wdw 8. I thought if I deleted iTunes from the Wdw 8, I could reload it. Apparently I did not delete the music files because they appeared in the format I complained about, no side bar or ribbon. Can anyone walk me through the process of deleting everything and reinstalling? I am not very computer savy so a step by step would really be appreciated.
Thank you,
