Unable to download 10.6.3 Itunes to my Power Mac G5 (running on OSX 10.5.8)

I have an Iphone 4S which brought up a message to upgrade software to IOS 6.0. I did this (stupidly!) - now can't access my ITunes and, worse still, can't upgrade ITunes to required 10.6.3 to run my IOS6.0 upgraded Iphone 4S!!! I feel like bunging everything 'Apple' in the bin! In summary, can't upgrade to latest ITunes on my G5 (says I don't have required files!) and can't sync or even get recognised my beloved Iphone 4S in my current ITunes (version 10)
Help, anybody????
Marianne

You're welcome!
I'm not so hot on iOS version rollbacks. It might be worth checking in over at the iPhone communities about that? Here's a link to the community:

HT204266 unable to download any app or itunes content to ipad 2? HELP!!!

unable to download any app or itunes content to ipad 2? HELP!!!

I assume that this started after the update and you were able to download before. Start with some basic troubleshooting.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
Power cycle your router, unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to download again.

Hello there, TindyBobbin.
Just to make sure, here is a Knowledge Base article that reviews the process for downloading a digital copy:

I have a Nikon d610 and am using PS CS6. I am unable to download my raw files through Bridge on my mac. I have downloaded the most recent Camera Raw files - 8.7.1 - what should I do next.

I have a Nikon d610 and am using PS CS6. I am unable to download my raw files through Bridge on my mac. I have downloaded the most recent Camera Raw files - 8.7.1 - what should I do next.

The D610 needs ACR 8.3 so you are easily covered there. I am not entirely clear on the process you are using the bring the files onto your hard drive. The safest way is to simply bring all the NEF files into a folder on your hard drive, then find them with bridge and open from there.
If still stuck, open Photoshop, and go Help > About plugins > Camera RAW and check that 8.7 installed OK.

Unable to download new songs from iTunes

I have iTunes 7.6.2 and when I plug in my iPod I get 'syncing' then 'its ok to disconnect' message and I'm unable to download new songs I just bought. I tried this on 2 computers and the same results. One is running XP Pro SP1 and one is running Vista SP1 and the same issue with both pc's.
Any suggestions?

iOS 6 (which runs on the iPhone 5) requires iTunes 10.7, which requires OS X 10.6.8 or higher.
Upgrade OS X on your Mac.

TS1424 "Unable to Download Song" message in iTunes app on iPod Touch?

I did look to see if this question was posted anywhere else, but did not see it. So if it has already been answered, my apologies.
I am hooked up to the wireless, logged into iTunes, credit card good to go. Every time I go to download a song, it stops with "download error" and then another message pops up stating "Unable to Download song" and that it could not be downloaded at this time. I've tried downloading other songs and the same thing happens.

I've been getting this problem too, seems the album/song as noted is corrupted (I did stop it halfway into downloadign when I was in Spain and didn't have a ton of bandwidth). I just need to delete this error message.
As seen here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18244258#18244258
Swipe the failing song horizontally to get the red Delete option, then delete.
So easy once you know, no?
Once that failed "in progress" download was deleted, I asked iTunes to re-download it and it went through just fine.

Unable to download purchased movie in iTunes

I am unable to download a purchased movie from itunes. The download icon spins as if it were downloading but it is not. I am connected to the internet so this is not the problem. I have purchased other movies but on this one I am "stuck in spin".
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have the same problem with the '6 iTunes Downloads Available' but was never able to solve it witht the iTunes support, nor the Apple Store Genius bar. I went through 3 people with the iTunes Online support and in the end they couldn't figure out why my computers (macbook pro 1" and brand new mac mini) iTunes wouldn't download the available downloads. They are 6 ringtones that I purchased and downloaded successfully on an iphone 4. Then I took my iphone 4 into the Apple Store and they replaced it and I hadn't synced it to my computer so I lost them. Then I emailed support and they sent the 6 ringtones to my iTunes account and my computers, iphones and ipads couldn't download them. In the end they ended up crediting my account with 10 song credits that I could use because they couldn't solve the problem after 6 months. So now there they sit evertime I'm in iTunes '6 iTunes Downloads Available'. Sorry I don't have the answer I've tried everything on my own, even erasing my phones and computer then reinstalling everything.

Why am I now unable to download app updates via iTunes?

I am unable to update my apps in iTunes. When I log in and search for updates, the list of apps to update populates, but when I click to download the updates, I get the message regarding content for the 17+ crowd, and I acknowledge this, but the download(s) do not start. My software is up-to-date as of today, but this problem started just before I performed the latest updates. I can, however, update directly from my iPhone/iPad,iPod. What gives?

hi. i had the same problem. i have had to download updates apps one by one and in this way worked. i think it's an apple store problem.
i have another trouble, if i click on "purchased" a pop up windows come up asking me the password, i type the password and a new pop up windows come up again asking me the password again and so on. i can't see my purchased apps.
note: i'm sure i have typed the password right, it works for normal download of apps but it doesn't allow me to see purchased apps.

Unable to download or update to itunes 10.6 on windows 7 64bit

Hi, recently I restored my laptop to the original factory settings and tried to install itunes again. However, with the link given on the apple's website to download Itunes, I only managed to download the 9.2.1.5 version even though the website stated that it version 10.6. So I installed it unknowingly that it's the old version and now I can't connect my Ipod as it requires version of 10.5 or higher. I even tried updating from Itunes 9.2 itself (by going to help> check for updates) and it even prompt me that newer version of Itunes (10.6.3) is available. So I clicked "download Itunes" and it opens up Apple Software Update to check for updates. Weird thing is, when it checks for available updates, it prompts me that "Your software is up-to-date". How can I get the latest version of Itunes? Even when I go to http://www.apple.com/sg/itunes/ itself i keep downloading the old version which is 9.2. Help
P.s i'm running on OS 5.1.1 on my ipod touch hence it requires a new version of itunes. Right now I'm running on itunes 9.2

Even when I go to http://www.apple.com/sg/itunes/ itself i keep downloading the old version which is 9.2. Help
I haven't seen one of these reported for a while. (There was a little burst of them on XP systems a few months ago, where they would keep trying to download a 10.6.1.x instead of a 10.6.3.25.)
Although you're getting different symptoms than described in the user tip, a few of them responded to the treatments in the following user tip:
"There is a problem with this Windows Installer package ..." error messages when installing iTunes for Windows
(Not entirely sure why having an ASU problem would cause the wrong version of the installer file to appear when downloading an iTunesSetup.exe or iTunes64Setup.exe from the website ... although something exotic might be happening with the installer cache, which is part of the ASU machinery.)

Unable to download CD's to iTunes on Windows.

I can no longer download audio CD's to iTunes on Windows. I've followed instructions on iTunes help but still can't download.

Are you referring to downloading songs from the iTunes Store, Amazon, etc. or to importing from audio CDs? If the latter, how far do you get in the process - what happens, if anything, when you run iTunes and insert a disc into your PC's CD/DVD drive?

I want to put music on my iPhone 4, but am not able to because I can not download the version of iTunes required because my mac computer is too old.

Am just having troubles in adding music to my new phone in that when I connect it to my computer it says that the phone requires the new version of iTunes being 10.5, but when I go to download this for my mac computer it says that this version of iTunes requires a different mac, meaning that my computer is too old. So I am just wondering how I can get music onto my phone?!

You will have to upgrade your operating system version and possibly your whole computer. We cannot provide more information easily until we know more about your system.
Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..." Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).
Apple does tell you about required equipment for the iPhone -- in 8 point medium gray type on a light gray box. The Store associates kind of automatically assume everybody is running a new model computer and the one I met when we bought our iPhone had never seen a pre-2008 Mac and was somewhat puzzled why anybody would own such an antique.

I would like to download my iTunes library onto a mac mini running OS 10.4.11 (and iTunes version 9.0.2), or transfer it from my macbook air, running OS 10.7.5. Tried downloading direct from iTunes and file sharing, but neither is working.

Hello apple support community! I'm trying to download my music purchases from iTunes onto my old Mac Mini. It runs OS 10.4.11 and doesn't have the capacity to upgrade to a newer OS. When I ask iTunes to check for available downloads, it says there are none. I have tried updating the iTunes software (version 9.0.2) but it can't connect to the server, even though I am on a wireless network. I've tried using home sharing and file sharing with my macbook air, but neither are working. Grateful for any suggestions!! The only thing I really use this mini for is music, so really hoping to be able to get my music purchases on there. Thanks.

Thanks, Jim, for taking the time, but the reply is unfortunately vague in the exact area of my confusion! "you need to copy that file to your new computer..." Well, the Import/Export instructions make it seem as if the two computers should be able to communicate this file thru wifi, but that's the linkage I can't seem tocreate with Import/Export. Should I instead email a copy to myself (thats what applecare suggested)? Copy it to and from a thumb drive? But then place the file where? And the article was helpful, but should I be trying to move the Library file or the Library.xml file (as iTunes Help suggests)? Sorry to be so clueless about it...I suppose I buy Apple in the hopes of not having to think about this stuff, which approach seems not to be serving me well. Thanks again for your time!

Unable to download latest version of itunes

I'm unable to open my latest download because of two issues. First, I keep getting a pop-up saying something to the effect of Service on Apple Mobile Device Failedf to Start, and after repeated retrys I skipped it.
Evenually I was able to down load successfully, but then I get Failed to Start because MSVCR80.dll was not found.
Help.
I've reloaded Itunes 4 times, rebooted my computer each time, cleared all prior Itunes remnants each time off my computer.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Unable to download free apps in Itunes

I was unable to purchase paid apps and was getting the message that "your transaction was declined" and today I am even not being able to download free apps/games from the itunes store. Whenever I click a free app I am being taken to the billing info page and I get the same old message.
I was able to download free apps until today. Please help.

To purchase apps, even free apps you need a valid payment method. It appears that you do not have a valid payment method associated with your account. You need to add one.
