    It say how to use a iTunes version 10.6.3 with OSX 10.5.8 and sync with iOS 5.
    OSX 10.6.8 is a paid upgrade for $29 but requires an Intel Mac. That last OSX for a Power PC G4 or G5 is 10.5.8.

  • Why won't my apps open after I updated them ?

    A few days ago I updated all my apps that needed updates (about 14). However , 2 of those apps didn't update right away (Flixster and TheScore sports) and an error message was displayed which I stupidly did not read and just pressed ok. After I pressed Ok the 2 apps were updated, however there was a problem , they would not open. If I click on the icon literally nothing happens , it turns a shade darker for a few seconds and then goes back to how it was. No screen or anything opens up when I try to open both Flixster and TheScore. At first I thought it was the app so I tried to download the same app on my friends phone but it worked perfectly fine. I also tried to delete the app and re-download it again , but it still won't open. Does anyone have an idea how to fix this ??

    Nevermind , I tried a soft reset and everything was fixed

  • Why won't itunes open after being downloaded?

    Please help I am about to cry with frustration! I have tried for a week to install itunes on my laptop for my new nano. The download seems to work but when I click on the icon itunes does not open. Quicktime works. I have tried uninstalling fully and then re-installing after re-starting but had no joy.
    Can anyone help ?
    Thank you

    No error message at all. Hourglass appears for a few seconds and then nothing.
    I don't have Norton and have tried disabling my virus software and then running it but still nothing.
    Ahhh, thank you kindly. that's already ruled out a couple of possible culprits.
    One last preliminary question aimed at diagnosing the issue prior to trying a treatment.
    reboot the PC. bring up your Task Manager, and click on the "Processes" tab. now try to launch itunes again.
    does an "itunes.exe" process appear in the Processes tab? if so, does it persist in there or does it disappear after a few seconds?

  • Why does the EEvents message come up every time the computer is opened after being shut off?

    Why does the EEvents message come up every time the computer is opened after being shut off?

    You need to check the software you run.
    Some officially supported and sold Mac versions of software use Wine for porting in some fashion or another.  If some program you are running is spawning these Wine processes, its probably buggy and not shutting down correctly.
    How to figure out which are Wine and which are not...?
    Well if its a Cider ported game, you just see if there is a Cider logo on the game.
    If its Wineskin ported, theres no super easy way to tell, depending on how much its been modified, but you can look inside the app (right click and "Show Package Contents") and go to Contents/MacOS and see if Wineskin executable is in there.  Unless its a very old version of Wineskin it shouldn't be able to hang like that without major issues int he Windows software running in it, and I don't know any any company would release it if it was that buggy.
    If its WineBottler Ported, you'll notice quickly because it launches X11 and runs the windows under X11... of course not all X11 apps are Wine, but if you have a program that launches and runs in X11.app then you can look inside it at Contents/MacOS to see if its Wine related.
    It could also be Crossover, or a Crossover port of software... you'd have to dig around inside of its app too to see if it looked like one of those.

    Make sure that you are signed into the correct ID in Setting>iTunes and App Stores>Apple ID. If you use iTunes Match, you have to disable it on the iPad before you can sync your music.

  • Why wont the edit icon open so i can edit photos?

    Why wont the edit icon open so i can edit photos?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what happens when you click on the Edit button at the bottom of the iPhoto window?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    A universal fix for some issues is the following:
    1 - reboot.
    2 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    3 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    4 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

  • Why wont songs purchased from itunes transfer to my media files on pc?

    why wont songs purchased on itunes transfer to music library on pc?

    I'm a bit confused by your question.
    You say you have synced with your iMac, and that you have match turned on. If match is turned on you can't sync music any more.
    Are the purchases new, or old ones?
    Can you confirm that match is turned on on both the iMac and the iPhone.
