Want to go back to iTunes 5

I too am pretty miffed at the spyware tactics Apple is using in version 6 with Mini music store. I certainly don't trust just hiding it. Don't they realise we are all swamped by ads, spam and pushy commercialism? A nice idea would be to disable and trash it all together as an option.
I would therefore like to go back to version 5 but cannot find any link to the download package. All there is , is one for 4.7.1
can anyone help?
I don't relish having to do a full system reinstall.
Thanks

Sean,
"A nice idea would be to disable and trash it all together as an option."
You can disable the Music Store by going to iTunes>Preferences>Parental and check Disable Music Store. This will remove the Store from you Source list and also remove the little MiniStore button.
While I understand your anger over the original implementation of the Mini Store and I think your proposed solution may be an over reaction.

  • My Ipod will not transfer all of its songs to purchased Itunes song transfer.  My last pv crashed, I dont have access to it any more.  I want my library back on Itunes.  ANy help?

    My Ipod will not transfer songs.  my old PC crashed and could not recover anything from it.  When I purchased my new Dell, when I loaded Itunes back on to it my content library will only transfer over purchased Itune songs.  I have tons of songs I downloaded from the old "CD" onto my new Itunes account from my Ipod.  Any help?

    so then technically I can't transfer the songs off my ipod to my itunes library?  since it is one 1 transfer from pc to ipod...correct?  So when I synch my ipod the warning screen comes up and says "there are content not in the library, erase and synch library to Itunes, only purchased songs can transfer."   Can I leave the songs on my ipod and when I purchase new songs to itunes I can still transfer those correct?  while having the others on there that wont transfer?

  • We want Cover Flow back in iTunes

    After updating my iTunes I saw the new interface and I thought, ok, a new way to use iTunes. Some nice features, in the GUI. But than I got a shock:
    No coverflow anymore??
    No option to enable coverflow??
    I don't have so much albums in my library, the most of them a "single" songs. So one Album contains one song. For me the album view is not so important as the song and playlist view.
    And here its not possible anymore to go through the library like on a jukebox? Once Cover Flow was that "killer feature" of iTunes. And now its gone?
    Grabbing in a list like in the older days? That's a step backward!
    Apple, please bring back coverflow to iTunes in the next update!

    Coverflow - the most overrated feature that only looks good in demos. Least functional and most resource intensive way of browsing your library.
    I thought it was overrated too — until I downloaded iTunes 11. Now I sorely miss it when looking at playlists. Having that visual reference at the top of the screen was extremely helpful, and the new Artist List doesn't cut it because that view doesn't preserve the ORDER of your playlist.
    I never used Cover Flow to NAVIGATE, but it absolutely ***** not having it as a visual reference for otherwise plain-text lists.
    But don't worry — Apple will never bring it back. Everyone in this thread, don't worry your little heads. Apple knows best what you need, whether you agree or not. Don't question Apple. Only praise allowed.

  • Reinstalled my PC, I want media files back on itunes from my devices

    Hey guys,

I have downloaded itunes already so I would like to put my media files from my ipad and iphone to the itunes library. I tried to sync it back but it would delete the current files on my devices since there is nothing in my itunes library.
    Help..

  • Want my money back from iTunes

    Credit card fraud from iTunes 60 rupee deducted twice for opening iTunes's setting and before also I was charged 70 wat the **** are they fooling ,without purchasing any thing paying money for wat ??

    When you add or change credit card details (and/or your address) on your account then you will likely receive a small temporary holding charge (as a lot of retailers do) to check that the card details are valid and that the card is active (it should disappear within a few days) : store holding charge
    For the the 70, you've checked the purchase history on your account (Store > View My Account, Store > View My Apple ID on iTunes 11, menu option on your computer's iTunes), and have you made any in-app purchases or have any auto-renewing subscriptions ?
    If you don't recognise the charge then you can contact iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • I deleted all my playlists provided. However, they are still on my Ipod Touch. Now, when I sync my Ipod with Itunes then the lists are copied back into Itunes?

    A playlist takes up almost no room. A few kB at most.
    It is simply a list of songs in the library
    Do you want the playlists or not?

  • Hey, so I logged onto my computer after a mandatory restart and my music and playlists were deleted from itunes, but I still have all of the music files that go into itunes if I open them individually. Any way I can get them back into itunes altogether??

    really just want my songs back in itunes, trying to find a way to do it all at once instead of clicking on individual song files since i have so many.

    copy them and then paste them into music/itunes/itunes media/music/ automatically add to itunes. that should automatically add them back in.

  • Can't sync podcast back to itunes

    i have a podcast downloaded on my iphone that i want to sync back to itunes. in the past when i sync the phone with my mac the podcast has just appeared in itunes, but not any more.
    i have tried right clicking on the phone in Devices (in the sidebar), and then choosing Transfer Purchases, but it hasn't worked.
    anyone got any ideas as to how i can get the file into itunes?
    TIA

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Which Apple TV do you have.
    If it's the Apple TV 2 then you can't sync anything to it, it wont show up under iTunes devices and the library will disappear from the Apple TV when you close iTunes or shut down your computer.

  • My girlfriend gave me a $25 iTunes gift card for Christmas, so I switched to the Canada store and spend most of it with .02¢ remaining. *Now I want to switch back to my original store, but I can't.

    My friend gave me a $25 iTunes gift card for Christmas, so I switched to the US store and spend most of it with 11¢ remaining. *Now I want to switch back to my original store, but I can't. iTunes keeps saying "You have a store credit balance; you must spend your balance before you can change stores.*

    You might just have to contact Apple and ask them to remove it (losing it). Usually people clear a balance by buying one song and having the exact remainder charged  to their credit card, but if you don't have a US credit card you cannot do that.

On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.

    Sorry, downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple, thus there is no official way to do so. Your phone was re-locked to the carrier it was originally locked to because you hacked it to unlock it. Apple's servers detected such & re-locked your phone. You need to contact the carrier your phone is locked to if you want to get it officially unlocked.

    1) I have multiple accounts at the iTunes store and none are now associated with my purchases...I think because passwords have been associated with various id’s and I can’t log in and access those purchases.  I want to get back to being able to use one id and password and be able to access those purchases.
    2) When I upgraded my iPhone 3gs, to the latest version 5.0.1 (9A405), is when I noticed that i couldn’t update my applications.  There are two names/accounts on the phone and prior to the update there was just the one.  I have tried entering every conceivable password that I have ever used and get the incorrect password error every time. The apps on the iPhone are apparently associated with several/different accounts.  I just want to get everything back to the way it was.  One id and one password with purchases associated with just one account that can be updated on my computer as well as my iPhone.

    Hey floridiansue,
    Do you have an installed email program such as Microsoft Outlook?  If your email is through an online login, such as Gmail, etc, then one will have to create an email association with a program such as Microsoft Outlook on the PC for this Scan to Email system to function.
