Where can I download iTunes 10.1 so I can sync my old iPod touch with my G4 running 10.5.8

Where can I download iTunes 10.1 so I can sync my old iPod touch (4.2.1) with my G4 running 10.5.8 ?


I have not found a link on the Apple support site. although there do seem to be links to download many older versions of iTunes.

Any help would be appreciated.

iOS 4.2

Hi varjack,

Thank you for your suggestion. For a number of reasons I choose not to upgrade to iTunes 6.3. As this G4 is running slow (it's over eleven years old) I have made a decision to avoid any software upgrades on my 'legacy' applications.Not only will any new software strain the resources of the G4, but I do not think it a good idea to put a lot of features into my machine that it is not capable of utilizing. The iPod touch (I have been prompted by iTunes) will communicate with my G4 if I have iTunes 10.1. That is the solution I continue to seek.

As far as the iTunes Store goes, I do not use it. One reason is that my iPod touch cannot run many of the new Apps (I'm also unable to find legacy Apps, though I haven't tried lately) and I'm not going to run out and buy a new device from Apple so I can. I just don't care enough.


Thanks

Sorry, but I don't understand your comment. iTunes 10.6.3 will not consume any more resources than will iTunes 10.1, and again iTunes 10.6.3 will run on your G4 without any additional upgrades to the system. So I'm not sure why you resist installing 10.6.3.


But it's up to you. Apple no longer provides a download for iTunes 10.1, so you'll have to see if any of the links lllaass provided still offer it and take the risk that any such download is not adulterated and contains no malware.


Regards.
