Itunes 10 and Tiger 10.4.11

I am extremely upset myself. I've waited for the new iPod touch for months and months, I saved up money to buy it, and now I can't buy it because my computer is "too old"? I used to love Apple, but this is such a letdown. All I wanted was to buy yet another product of theirs, not to become a forgotten customer. I hope they do release a Tiger itunes 10 version, how can they not care about all Tiger costumers they are losing?

Which computer do you have?

I'm running 10.4.11 on a mac mini with;
and?

Any reason why you have to go around trolling every post on the apple discussion boards acting like your Mr. Bigshot making smart remarks to many of the genuine questions or comments? Don't you have something better to do with your time like working or a family or just getting some fresh air outside? Or are you justing working on being imaginary "king" of the apple discussion boards by gaining post numbers? 90% of your posts to this Itunes 10/Tiger issue have no value and most of the responses are just trying to belittle many of these people that have questions or comments. If you don't like what we are having to say please move on. You sure have a long way to go if you think your going to top the TOP USERS anytime soon.

Okay. My question was to kid.ap (not you) because he wrote, "my computer is "too old".
A Mac mini is not too old to update to Leopard.

Im running Tiger on OS 10.4.11 MacBook Pro

It's not too old.
You can update to Leopard (10.5).

From what I gather here, if you are still on Tiger you cannot upgrade to Leopard, and you cannot run Snow Leopard on a non-intel computer. Someone gave me a new iPod and I can't use it with my laptop!

A dead end. Horrible corporate maneuvering.

This is incorrect.
You can run Leopard if you have a G4, 867MHZ or faster or Intel computer.

Can anyone help; I am in a nightmare situation. Was using itunes 9.1.2, attempted to upgrade iphone 3GS to 4.1, it froze, needed to restore. Wouldn't restore, error 21. One of suggested solutions is to reinstall itunes so (AHHHHHHHHH!!!!) I did a complete uninstall of itunes.

Now I can't access anything - 10 won't install, 9.1.2 refuses to install, codec overrun????, installed 9.1.1, it won't open as my itunes library was "created by a newer version".

Incidently I easily restored my phone on friend's PC using itunes 10 - but have lost all data and can't get to to until I can get a version of itunes.

Yeah I didn't save up to buy a whole new OS, just simply wanted to buy a new iPod Touch. And if I did, probably in a year or so, I'd run out of options again, when even Leopard becomes "too old" Sorry thanks for your help but I'm still unhappy about it. Especially knowing people with Windows have no problem with this, very unfaithful to your own customers.

Try iTunes 9.2.1.

Maybe that would work?

You can buy Snow Leopard for $29. That should install. Its cheaper than Leopard, and already you can't use some stuff with Leopard. There is nowhere in the EULA that says you can't use the single user disc (the $29 disc) to upgrade from Tiger.

But if it's a PPC Mac, It will not work with Snow Leopard.

I just purchased a new ipod nano... I can't put any music on it unless I have itunes 10.0... I can't get itunes 10.0 unless I upgrade my OS (I currently have Mac OS X 10.4.11)... I almost solely use my Mac for my ipod since I have to work on a Mac...

what a joke apple is...

I can't put any music on it unless I have iTunes 10.0.

Okay. That's what it states on the box.

I can't get itunes 10.0 unless I upgrade my OS

Oaky, so upgrade your OS.
