Taking 6 hours/can't download the free Itunes to my

Taking 6 hours/can't download the free Itunes to my desk top so that I can not proceed forward with downloading music etc.
I have a IPOD Nano 4GB
I am brand new to this...the problem seems to be when I click on the Itunes download it gives me 2 options
1. Run application
2. Save to desktop
Yet trying to save to desktop has taken me from 5:30 pm until now 11:30 am and still trying
It shows me a down load screen but instead of decreasing it increases and states it has 6 hours to go??????
I am using a Dell with Windows XP...HELP please.
I am tired and going on a long plane trip tomorrow evening and wanted to get this done.
Any advice at all?
Thank you!!!

PS: If and when I get this fixed how does the battery work if you are going on a long trip for example out of the country and have no access to a computer to re-charge via USB port?

What kind of connection do you have? Dial-up? DSL, Cable, FioS?
And have you checked your firewall settings to make sure they are not interfering?
You can buy a wall charger to charge it, Apple Store, RadioShack, etc.

    Call Apple and order a Snow Leopard DVD.  Once you have installed it, use the combo updater to update to 10.6.8 and then install iTunes 10.7

  • I have the Mac Os 10.4.11, and iTunes store will no longer come up on my screen to order tunes.  A download screen appears for the new iTunes. I can't download the new iTunes unless I get the new operating system for my mac.  Is there a way around this?

    I have an iMac with a 10.4.11 operating system.  When I click on iTunes Store, I no longer get the iTunes screen, instead, I get a new iTunes download screen.
    I can't download the new iTunes without upgrading my operating system.  Is there a way around this problem without buying the new operating system?
    I haven't been able to download songs for awhile now.

    which version of iTunes are you on ? if it's earlier than iTunes 9.2.1, get it here.

  • Error can t Download the Music iTunes Match

    Error can t Download the Music iTunes Match

    Is it giving you a specific error number? And what kind of network connection do you have?
    One thing you might try is a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset. Not sure it would help, but it will not hurt.

  • Can't download the latest iTunes. A window pops up... The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs. No iTunes now.

    Now, iTunes won't launch and can't be updated. Please help.
    If I have lost my music collection I will be switching platforms ASAP. It is insane that Apple has updates seemingly every day for their products.

    I was in your same situation with 14 downloads and 14 attempts. 
    You have to make sure that your Mac is booting into 64 bit mode.  You can make sure of this by going into System Preferences and scrolling down to 'Software' and making sure that you are booding with 64 bit Kexts. 
    If not, restart while holding the 6 and 4 keys down until you see the spinning gear wheel and try installng again. 
    BUT, what I also did was to go into Applications, click on the Lion installer, Get Info, and give yourself custom priviliges to Read And Write. 
    I did this simultaneously, and I don't know what function did it, but it worked for me, with no further downloads of the installer. 
    Good luck!

    Yes.
    From the box and the website:
    System requirements
    Mac computer with USB 2.0 port, Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later, and iTunes 10 or later4"

    You would need to update your Mac OS.

  • I can't download the latest itunes (I need to for my phone) because it says I need an updated OS version, but my computer says everything is up to date. Help?

    I can't download the latest itunes (I need to for my phone) because it says I need an updated OS version, but my computer says everything is up to date. Any help?

    First you need to install Mac OS 10.6. To do this you have to buy the OS disk. (This is a whole different OS, not an update of 10.5.) Order it here:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    You may be able to install an even newer OS, but you have to get 10.6 first.
    Please look at Apple Menu / About This Mac / More Info... and check under Hardware Overview for the Model Identifier of your Macbook. That will tell us whaat is the highest OS you can install.

  • I can't download the new itunes version 11.1

    Check out this forum thread. Long story short, if you're using Windows, you need to use the Safari browser to get the 11.1 version.

  • Can't download the new itunes needed for ios 7

    I can't download the new itunes needed for the ios 7 update all iget a the option to save a binary file (whatever that is) and when i click save it disappears. Arghhhhhh!!! Any help would be great.

    I think I'm having a very similar issue. My iTunes is stuck on a version 9 & won't allow me to upgrade it. My MacBook Pro won't read my iPhone through iTunes until a version 10 or newer is downloaded.
    I don't suppose you've found anyone who can help you yet?

  • Any ideas on why I can't download the latest itunes?

    I am trying to download the latest iTunes (10.2.1) to my PC, but I'm running into all sorts of trouble. OS is Windows 7. When I first tried downloading it, I got the following message:
    C:\Users\Jelli\Downloads\iTunes64Setup(1).exe.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read.
    Try again later, or contact the server administrator.
    I tried it a few times, and I was finally able to download the default version, which I am pretty sure is the 32-bit. When I go to install, I get this message:
    C:\Users\Jelli\Downloads\iTunes64setup.exe is not a validWin32 application.
    This iTunes installer is intended for 32-bit versions ofWindows. Please download and install the 64-bit iTunes installer instead.
    So, I went and downloaded the 64-bit version, and when I went to install, got this error:
    C:\Users\Jelli\Downloads\iTunes64setup.exe is not a validWin32 application.
    I can't understand what is going. I was able to download it onto my husband's computer a few days ago. I have never downloaded/installed iTunes on my computer before, nor have I had any problems downloading anything else.
    I am fairly amateur when it comes to computers, but most of the time I can figure things out, and I can follow steps just fine. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    If the OP has this much RAM in their iMac, certain this Mac can run Mountain Lion.
    The reason it might not be installing is that 15 GBs of RAM.
    Your iMac should have (4) equal sized, 4 GB sticks of RAM for a total of 16 GBs.l
    If your iMac is only reporting that there is only 15 GBs of RAM, you have a RAM stick that is either not seated in its slot properly or is defective/going bad.
    This maybe the reason that it won't download it.
    Also could be you are running out of free space on your HD.
    You need, at least 15-20 % or greater free space left on your HD.

  • Can't Download the Newest iTunes--Install Doesn't Complete

    If I use the download from the Apple webpage, the Windows Installer hardly ever loads the program. Very rarely it will, and I will get to the page where the program will be installed (the page that says "All Your Music. All in One Place."), the green status bar will be almost full, and then it will stop. If I use the Apple Software Update for iTunes+Quicktime, the green bar will get to about 55% full, above it it will say "Installing..." and then it will stop. I've tried both install methods several times and I have left them for about two hours with no progress. I use a Vista Basic but I have never had this problem before. How can I get it to actually install?

    I can't download iTunes either. I have Windows XP and when trying to download just iTunes 9.0.3 it will start to download and then get to 15.60 KB and stop. I tried downloading it thru iTunes using the Update iTunes option, tried downloading from I.E. 8 and Firefox/Mozillaa and no luck. I even found the option to download 8.0.2 and 8.1.7 off Apple's website and neither one of those will download, they all just stall after awhile. I have cleared my web cache for both IE and Firefox, removed the previous version of iTunes and all the apps associated with it. I had a saved copy of iTunes 8.0.2 and reinstalled it, but again with the older app, I still can't download the newest version of iTunes. This time it gives the option to install Bonjour, Safari and iTunes, it got thru Bonjour but froze on Safari and didn't get to iTunes. I have been fighting this since the day the newest iTunes came out.

  • Why I can not download the free games no more?

    I am trying to download the free education games to my daughter, but they never download and they stay on the screen with the waiting process. Could you please give me a solution for that?

    If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

    Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.
