Hello llblake,
Fortunately, the process of installing or updating iTunes should not affect your library. The following articles can help with getting iTunes properly updated and stabilized.

HT201364 I tried to download OS X Mavericks v10.9.2 into my iMAC purchased on June 25, 2007 and upgraded to Snow Leopard OS X10.6.8 When I tried to download Mavericks OS X, the message came up that it cannot be installed in my computer. Why?

I tried to download OS X Mavericks v 10.9.2 into my iMAC purchased on June 25, 2007 and upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 When I tried to download OS X Mavericks v 10.9.2 into my iMAC, the message came up that it cannot be installed in my computer. Why?

Because there is a flaw in the App Store that gives you an alert you can never ever get rid of telling you to download Mavericks, even though when you click it then tells you your machine is too (I have to say 'darn' here because Apple automatically astersiks out the first word I used that also begins with d and is four letters) old. So you have to live with that little "1 update available" alert, though in reality, you cannot install it. You can imagine that either it is a sinister plot to wear away at you to buy some new hardware, even though yours is working just fine, or that it is a programming error Apple just doesn't care enough about to correct.

Hi, I just updated my mac from version10.6 to 10.9.3 os mavericks. i went to open iPhoto and it says "Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade." does this mean I have lost all photos i had in there?

It does not give me a choice, it just says quit or upgrade? p.s. i didn't realise ther was a way to back up my computer beforehand, which i am guessing this is time machine?

1. No, you haven't.
2. Back up the iPhoto library(this can be done through Time Machine or by dragging it to a drive, partition, or disk image formatted as Mac OS Extended) and then click Upgrade.
3. Aside from Time Machine and drag-copying items from your home folder, programs such as the Disk Utility, Carbon Copy Cloner, and SuperDuper can make backups.

I just received my IPad2 3G WiFi yesterday and I tried to email my daughter on it the new product. It recognized my router,but when I typed the quick note, a ,message came up that it was not able to send. So I have to buy a plan with Verizon (my carrier

I wanted to know if I want to email or receive my emails on my 3G Wifi I Pad, do I have to call Verizon and set up a plan to do so. I am new at this and I thought when you were able to pick up WiFi all you had to do is just use your gmail.com to retrieve and send. I guess I need someone to answer me if the I Pad is like my cell phone - where you pay for a data plan. As I said, I am so new at all of this technical "stuff". Please someone HELP ME!

You can send over WiFi, but it sounds as if you need to setup your Gmail account, or did you do this already?

Droid Razr M , after update to 4.4.2 my "Phone" widget on my homepage no longer works.. shows android and when I click on it says "app not installed"

hello all, I just got my phone on Monday, this morning I was prompted to update the software, when I did, my homepage "phone app" no longer works. It now shows the android robot above the word "phone" and when I click on it, it says "app isnt installed"

It needs to be updated or reinstalled, i would just go ahead and do a reset on the phone although probably should check your "playstore" first and at the top left there should be 3 horizontal lines click, then my apps, then anything that still says update go ahead and update. then turn phone off and on. doesn't work. can try holding a place on mainscreen where there is no icon and add widget should come up and see if there it is in there just looks different or something . if not factory reset

Where is the download for Acrobat X Pro?

I have bought the creative cloud 6 standart and i can not find a download for Acrobat X Pro.
I have downloaded the trial for Acrobrat XI Pro, but my Serial number doesnt work there.
What should i do?
Thanks, Kat

I am using the download Assistant. And no matter where i click, it only ever gets me to the download of the Acrobat XI Pro, but not the Acrobat X.
Even when you go to the product page of creative suit it tells you try or buy Acrobat X, but when you click try you get to Acrobat XI download.
This is really frustrating, as I purchased this product and am not able to use it. And no body seems to be able to tell me were i can find the right link to download it.
I have tried chatting to the online support team, but they dont deal with Acrobat problems (which took him half an hour to tell me).
I have never encountered a more complicated way of finding all the right downloads.
Is it not possible for you to email me a link to the right download?
Since it is not the newest version it simply isnt available in the download assistant. And i do not want to download the whole package as i already have all other programs i need.

I was trying to update my garageband app and once the app fully downloads it says that it could not install and to check my internet connection. I restarted my internet, turned it off and on, restarted my computer, deleted the app and downloaded it again and the same thing happened every time. What should I do?

Do you have any firewalls or antivirus software active (e.g. Little Snitch), that could prevent the installer from contacting the Apple Servers? If yes, turn them off. Also, disable the Energy saver, to prevent the Mac from falling asleep and causing time outs.
Sometimes it will help, to run the installer in Safe Mode, see: Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

First make sue you are installing the 64 bit version of iTunes.
Second make sure it is iTunes 10.7 or later.
I would download a fresh copy of the 64 bit version of iTunes 11. After installation reboot your computer.
Before connecting your phone reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

TS3212 it says that the download for the new itunes is not a valid Wn32 application. what do i do?

it says that the download for the new itunes is not a valid Wn32 application. what do i do?

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I just got the Itunes update. So frustrating. I will be trying methods on this forum to save my library and re-install the older version of ITunes. What was Apple thinking when they developed and released this mess?

Apple is more likely to see your comments if you send feedback via:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
=Downgrading from iTunes 11 to iTunes 10.7=
You may be able to go back with Time Machine but this may involve restoring other items too (https://discussions.apple.com/message/20441404). Alternatively:
Back up your computer first, in case the unexpected happens.
Quit iTunes.
Get iTunes 10.7 from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1576 or the direct download link at: http://appldnld.apple.com/iTunes10/041-7195.20120912.d3uzQ/iTunes10.7.dmg
Do a few preparatory steps by making sure all iTunes components are not running and cleaning old files.   See https://discussions.apple.com/message/20475394. Do steps 3 and 4. Steps 6-8 may be also useful but I don't know if they are essential. Some of the other steps are not necessary, duplicate steps listed later in my post or are perhaps even unhelpful in the process.
Replace the iTunes 11 application with iTunes 10.7. Simply dragging the application to the trash may not work. Lion (OSX 10.7) and newer systems have iTunes integrated into the operating system and deleting is a bit more involved. Two ways to do this are:
1. Use the shareware Pacifist utility (http://www.charlessoft.com/) to install iTunes 10.7 including all associated system files. Details at http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=16400819&postcount=6
2. Check this reference on how to delete the iTunes application itself:
    Delete iTunes in Mac OS X 10.7 Lion - http://osxdaily.com/2011/09/13/delete-itunes-in-mac-os-x-10-7-lion/
    After deleting the application there may be other files that need downgrading too. See the note about error -42408 at the end of this post. You may want to tuck these away somewhere safe until you have completed the installation of iTunes 10.7. I have not tested this but ideally if newer versions are not found then the installer will put in the old versions. This may include these files in /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/ which apparently get updated by iTunes 11:
AirTrafficHost.framework
CoreFP.framework
DeviceLink.framework
iTunesAccess.framework
MobileDevice.framework
After doing one of the two procedures above you will have to rescue the most recent old iTunes library from your iTunes > Previous Libraries folder. Rename it "iTunes Library.itl" and replace the existing one in the iTunes folder. A newer version of iTunes irreversibly updates your library file so you have to replace it with the old one or you will get an error message. Note, this will revert your library to the version at the time of the upgrade and you will have to update any changes made since. See:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20401436 - turingtest2 11/2012 post on rebuilding empty/corrupt library from previous iTunes library file after upgrade/crash.

Other issues:

- If you encounter error -42408:

Alternatively, check https://discussions.apple.com/message/20441424 which requires you have a Time Machine backup (though possibly if you remove the newer version of these files old ones may be installed with the iTunes 10.7 installer - untested). A variant of this is at: https://discussions.apple.com/message/20448184
