How to downgrade iTunes 11 to previous version 10.7

Software update just installed the new iTunes 11, and it really blows. I want to downgrade back to version 10.7 (where the organization made a lot more sense). How do I downgrade, since all the links I've found for 10.7 take you to the iTunes 11 download page?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.4.8), 2 GHz Core Duo

I know this is sort of not related, but really worth mensioning, since I am starting to see a trend... Sorry in advance if you dont agree with me - this is just my opinion... so here we go :

Yes - iTunes 11 DOES "blow".. When you search for a song that you know you have, it doesnt show all of them. When you search for an artist, it doesnt show all the songs that you have,,, (I think it favors iTunes bought music) etc.. etc.. etc.. you are all right...

I hate to say it, becuase I love apple, but what the **** is an iPad Mini and why would I want one??? Get a real iPad... and I am VERY disapointed with the much anticipated iPhone 5!


AGAIN - Let me just say - I love apple. I own an iMac, MacBook Pro 17, MacBook, Apple TV, iPhone 5 and have owned the iPhone 4, iPhone 3 and the original iPhone.... So iPhone 5 got a wee bigger screen and the ability to do pano-camera. (incidently, you can do this with iPhone 4s if you upgrade your IOS).. you get the picture.... I really expected more from iPhone 5... I have to say, I dont like droid phones, but the galaxy has a serious screen! (but a crappy OS.) Give me a freaking sreen! Thats all I want.. All the other phones suck! They really do!


I Liked the idea of turning the iPod Nano into a watch.. So much you can do with that! wifi it to you iPhone's internet hot spt and you got a social medial device on the fly! or email of anything... Cant do that anymore, because they have replaced the nano with a bigger nano. (not quite a nano - they should call the shuffle a nano.. or get rid of the shuffle and reintroduce the last nano)..


I guess my frustration is the lack of "Thoughtless Use".. Its disappearing in place of making money...

That makes me sad... Dont become Microsoft.

I really need to downgrade because I use DJ software for a gig next weekend, and the stuff I just ripped to iTunes isn't showing up in the iTunes Library... And neither is it showing up in the DJ software. So I think I am screwed unless I downgrade.


Problem is I don't backup my System files to Time Machine, so I don't have access to those Framework files. Is there some other way I can get hold of them?


I'm a bit desperate here, so I'd be grateful for any help you can give. Thanks!

iTunes11 really blows.

Thanks Apple, this is i just one of many blows you made recently. Soon i will switch to another Operating system and computer. Super Controlled User Experience really blows.

Thanks, for the tip to downgrade, Apple really blows these days, each upgrade downgrades my workflow.
