Where to get a version of 7.0 Itunes, I am getting very frustrated with 7.1

Hey, I found an old version of Itunes (7.0) at this web site but I am having a hard time installing it. The installs buttons are all grayed out.
http://www.oldapps.com/
Any idea how to get by this. I am really missing my Itunes library. Do I have uninstall the 7.1 version first? How do I do that without losing my Itunes library?
I have a recent backup of only my purchases. I guess I could restore if I have to. I hope it is a good backup. Any idea how to check a backup to see if it is good?
thanks for your help. There is some great stuff on these forums.

Hi-
To reinstall when the option to install is grayed out, you will want to trash the iTunes.pkg and iTunesX.pkg files (as explained in the following link):
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301356
Your iTunes "Library", that is, the mpeg-4, mpg3, etc. files, are not affected by the reinstall.
NOTE:As with ALL valuable data, though, you should have backup files on external media or devices.
Your songs themselves will not be affected by the reinstall, but your library information such as playlists, playcounts, and ratings will be. There is a way to save those settings, but since you are downgrading, I am not sure the following will work. It does work, though for reinstalling the same version.
Go to User/Music/iTunes/ and copy the two iTunes Library files to another location or back them up onto a disk or hard drive. Then, when you reinstall iTunes, replace them where you found them. This should restore your original settings.
1-iTunes Folder: make a new folder:(folder name)
2-Move:
iTunes 3 Music Library
iTunes Music Library.xml
iTunes Music Library (2)
...to the new (folder name) folder
3-Reinstall iTunes
4- File > Import...Import: (folder name)/iTunes Music Library.xml
If you have a lot of music, it will take some time, but you will get your playlists backplaylists back.

  • Getting very frustrated with my Gnex...

    Ok so I am running out of ideas to make this phone work for me... Currently on my 3rd gnex since i first bought it in May 2012 and this on is by far the worse. Just a quick run down of my first two 1.) worked great absolutely enjoyed all the features as it was my first 4g phone got impatient waiting for 1st jelly bean update and bricked it while trying to root rookie mistake lol... 2.) was just as happy with it as the first. Everything working great till about a month ago when the mic started to act up and no one could hear me unless i was using a headset or blue tooth. Got the update for 4.2.2 the day I was taking it to best buy geek squad to send out and that even seemed to be working great loved the camera features and was even starting to like the lock screen widgets. Had no problems with the battery drain and even seemed to be running better than ever. But since my wife was the most frustrated with not being able to hear me when we'd talk on the phone i sent it out for a replacement (happy wife = happy life). Which now brings me to today not even 24 hours after picking up my replacement gnex i am starting to regret my decision to ever buy one in the first place. This one came with 4.2.2 ready to go on it and seemed to get off to a good start with it until i tried to open the internet, Google would start to load then poof back to home screen, open internet back up load some more then kicked out (wifi or 4g/3g mind you). then it was like it was taunting me saying "oh good patients you got me to load google dare you to search.... HAHAHAHAHA nice try" poof home screen. Ok. Well internet a bust lets try the google search bar.... Oh wow i like the new features here let's try a search.... well back to hompage i go.... At this point I'm ready to give up and try later so I press the lock button and screen goes black then flashes at me for about 3mins... When I go to the main menu it is black as if i have no apps at all till i swipe and then everything appears.  Oh and it is beginning to get real hot like I've seen posted here a couple of times and now I have started missing the htc thunberbolt loaner phone that best buy gave me for the 3 days with out my nexus...
    Things I have tried:
    -Factory reset (3 times)
    -Taking Battery out and letting it sit for awhile (up to 15mins)
    -Avoiding the urge to just throw it against the wall (hardest one of all)
    Things I'd like to avoid in finding a solution:
    -Rooting ( tried and failed at that already in the past)
    -Waiting for ANOTHER replacement phone
    -Throwing it against the wall (still seems like that would make me the happiest right now)
    So all in all i just needed to vent a bit and am now curios as to what options I do have now. I didn't go with the verizon insurance on the phone because i went through Best Buy when i bought it originally and pay 9.99 a month for their Geek Squad protection plan but i don't want to have to send it back out since i just got it back today. Can I take it in to a verizon store and replace it right away? If so how much should that cost (in AZ)? Has anyone else been down this road with their gnex as well and have any info to share?

    Is the replacement phone working flawlessly so far as of this posting cowboyjake? I couldn't help it to laugh at your posting things you have tried. I know how you feel the upgrade it messed up my phone it reboots during a phone call, screen goes blank and have to uninstall / reinstall the battery to get the phone to boot up and work. Price goes up Quality and Service goes down is the motto of all businesses now days.

  • I'm starting to get very frustrated with the lack of help on this issue!!!

    Ok, someone please help!
    I have tagged several songs off the radio from my IPod and am trying to purchase them. I have been able to purchase songs on a previous version of ITunes, but not now after upgrading to the latest version.  I have tried the following,
    Purchasing several songs I tagged at different times and no luck.
    I went into the ITunes store and purchased one of my tagged songs from there and it added it to the playlist as a purchased song.
    Then I deleted an earlier song and retagged it. It appeared and I immediately tried to purchase it, but no luck! All it does is hang there (I've left it hanging for about 10 minutes) and it won't purchase! I've posted this question like 5 times, could someone respond?

    Hi,
    It sounds like you've accidentally used an undocumented shortcut that changes the flow setting.  (The flow setting is used to create a build up effect. This is a Photoshop feature that although Elements does not show it in the options bar can be called up using the shortcut.)
    With the brush tool selected, press Shift + 0 (Shift + zero key) to set the flow back to 100%.
    There's a video about this on YouTube:

  • Why doesn't my IPad purchases no longer transfer to my IPhone 4S.  I am really getting very annoyed with Apple and their products.

    I have never had issues with purchases made on my IPad or IPhone transferring to the other device.  Today, I purchased a song from ITunes on my IPad and it didn't transfer/sync to my IPhone 4S.  I tried syncing my phone on for the song on my MacBook Pro, and I got this crazy (and annoying) message stating I can't transfer the song for NINETY DAYS!  What did Apple do to ITunes and why?  I am getting so frustrated with Apple that if this continues, I will never again purchase another Apple product.

    There should be no reason you can't sync your itunes library to your iphone...
    Plug your phone into itunes... click on the iphone that is in the corner.. .it usually says your name... such as Lisa's iphone or whatever... then you will see some tabs such as... summary, music, videos, photos... on each one of those you need to check what you want to sync to your iphone. Once you check those boxes then click apply then scroll down and sync... do that one each section -photos, music etc...
    Apple doesn't want you to buy things over... that's why when you buy something trough itunes you can download it as many times as you want for life!

  • My Thinkpad edge e330 gets very hot with xubuntu 12.10

    Hi,
    I own a Thinkpad edge e330. IT is perfect for my use. And I love it alot. but it has some problem. it gets very hot with xubuntu 12.10.
    the temperatur goes up to 70 after using it in 30 min. even when it is not hot in the room. I think it is very strange and 70 is very high for a Intel computer.
    Can anybody here tell me how to make the temperatur come down? thanks!

    For sure that isn't normal temperature. I have E330, i3-3110M, Ubuntu 12.10/13.04: temps stay around 40-45 celcius in idle/low load.
    - what about the temperatures on Windows? If they're high too, I'd really suggest some vent dusting too...
    - what BIOS settings do you mean?
    Check that the CPU frequency scaling is working (wouldn't expect the problem to be about this though, but you never know...):
    cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -i "cpu mhz"
    TLP power management might also fix this issue, but regardless of the issue I recommend to install it (easy to install via PPA): http://www.webupd8.org/2013/04/improve-power-usage-battery-life-in.html
    I'd also try updating to Xubuntu 13.04... there is always something new and this could be a bug.

  • IPad gets very slow with large apps installed ?

    Hi,
    I have a 64GB iPad 3 and I noticed it gets very slow when I install large apps. Apps larger than 1 GB.
    I have bought a number of excellent reference apps, but can not keep them on my iPad together.
    I have to delete one before I can install the next or else my iPad runs into trouble.
    I can have about 5 large apps installed and no more.
    It takes forever to boot, restarts, has delays when typing and crashes all the time with my large apps installed.
    Is this a limitation of iOS 6, or is it because I have dropped below 10 GB of my 64GB storage.
    Does my iPad use the storage for memory?
    I bought a 64GB so that I could use my large apps.
    Sean

    10GB of free space should be adequate. Have you done a Reset?
    How much space is your Other using? You may be able to reduce.
    How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
    http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • Where to get Project dlls with version v16?

    Guys, I am trying to solve one of my problems, and it comes out that Project dlls have to be the same version as SharePoint dlls. 
    I have downloaded project SDK 2013, but I am not able to find dlls with version 16.
    Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Library
    Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Events.Receivers
    Microsoft.ProjectServer.Client
    Thanks
    Nick

    Hi nicksav,
    The Project Server dll's for Project Server 2013 do not have version 16 but 15.
    You can find the DLL's on your Project Server 2013 machine:
    Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Library
    --> [Windows Folder]\Microsoft.NET\Assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Library
    Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Events.Receivers
    --> [Windows Folder]\Microsoft.NET\Assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Events.Receivers

  • Version 5.0 will not unload itself from memory when I close it. This results in not being able to open FF later unless I manually go and close the application in Windows task manager. Any ideas as this is getting very frustrating.

    I have this issue on 3 computers that were just updated with FF 5.0. When I close FF, the application "Firefox.exe *32" remains in memory. Trying to open FF again later greets me with the error that FF can't open because another instance of FF is already running. Previous versions did unload completely and never caused this issue..

    I found the culprit. Norton Internet Security added an add-on to FF called Symantic IPS 2.0 which is causing FF 5 not to close properly. I have no idea what it is for but FF works properly again with it disabled.
    For reference, that add-on worked fine with FF 3.x as well as FF 4.x. It just doesn't seem to like FF 5.0.

  • HELP!!!! I've tried to purchase and download a new app only to keep getting the message "can't connect to iTunes store.  It's getting very frustrating!  My Internet is working and I've downloaded apps prior to this one - what is goin on with machine!?!?!

    I keep getting an error message "can not connect to the iTunes stores" - what gives.

    Microsoft does not currently have a Mac App Store version of Microsoft Office. So any apps that you find in the Mac App Store that sound like those programs are probably helper programs by third-party developers. The only way to get Office for Mac is directly from Microsoft on their website.

  • Why are the tabs not saved when I restart Firefox? Very frustrating with the new version.

    I pin a tab - or many tabs. Close Firefox, then open it the tabs are never saved. This was never the issue with the older versions of Firefox - been using it for years. I bought a new computer, loaded Firefox (19.0) and now I cannot "save" the tabs.

    You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
    Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • Getting real frustrated with itunes

    Ok i have two questions for everyone:
    1. How can I transfer all of my music files from Windows Media Player to itunes? I have gone to the add folder/files to itunes, but only 306 of the 500 something songs I have can be transfered that way. Is there another way?
    2. I have my own computer that i use first and mostly. For this somputer I only have dial-up internet. My grandparents have fast internet. So I would download songs from there as much as I could. The question is how can i put the songs I dowload from my grandparent's house on my itunes at my house?
    Presario 6000   Windows XP  

    Thats the puzzling thing...there is no error message. QuickTime player seems to work fine, however
    Many thanks. Checking on a common possibility nowadays with an error-message-free iTunes launch failure where the QuickTime Player is launching fine.
    Try (by way of experiment) disabling the BonJour Service.
    In your Start Menu, right-click Computer and select "Manage".
    Expand "Services & Applications".
    Open "Services". (Maximise the window to better see what's going on.)
    Right-click the BonJour Service and select "Properties". In the "General" tab, set Start-up type to "Disabled".
    Restart the PC, and try launching iTunes again. Does it launch this time?
    If iTunes launches with the BonJour Service disabled, by any chance do you have a recent version of IOBit's Advanced SystemCare utility currently installed on the PC? If so, try uninstalling and reinstalling Advanced SystemCare. Can you launch iTunes without having to disable the BonJour Service now?
