If I download a new version of itunes, I lose my music library?
If I download a new version of itunes, I lose my music library?
Debby,
I answered this question on your other post, but if you want the answer here, no you won't. You need to stay connected and all your songs will be there, unless something goes wrong, which is rare. If that were to happen, you can always get it back by signing into iTunes and then going to section purchased from the iTunes store and re - download everything.

There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package.
When you have uninstalled iTunes, did you only use Control Panel > programs and features, or did you follow the instructions here--> https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204275

WMA files disappeared after downloading the new version of ITunes
Although the titles are there, it does not play any music and inserts an exclamation of the song. All of these files to go?
Please read the instructions for the reconstitution of the library (I've linked to) once again. You should rename the folder Media Player , do not attempt to open the files in this folder.
Also, in WMP, please right click on a hit song and select the location of the file to open . A window of the Explorer must be open, with the corresponding music file selected. Does it work?
To play music files in Winamp, drag and drop from Windows Explorer in the Winamp playlist (and double-click the first point playlist), or right-click on a music file in Solution Explorer and select Open with - Winamp .

"IPad"iPad"are unusable because it requires a newer version of iTunes."
Hello Apple communities! I hope that someone has already solved this one. I just bought an iPad Pro, new AT & t Got it home and plugged into my machine Windows 8.1 and received this message: "iPad"iPad"are unusable because it requires a newer version of iTunes." I'm on the latest version of iTunes (64) that I can find,12.1.3.6. and iOS is 9.3.2. I've seen a few people complain about what happens on a MAC or Windows Vista, but I have not seen someone with Windows 8.1 complain. Any ideas?
I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and deleted the iPad, even though it was nine already. Don't know where to go from here.

I've updated iPhone 9.3.3 and iTunes for 12.4.3.1; both the latest versions
But iTunes does not recognize my iPhone, why?
Where you say that you need to download the latest version of iTunes? What is a ToolTip that appears in iTunes when you connect iPhone to your computer? Because if this is the case, iTunes detects your iPhone. So where is the problem? It won't let you not sync to iTunes? It won't let you save with iTunes?

The iTuneslibrary.itl file cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes
Hello
This error prevents the launch of iTunes. The library file has been modified to work with the new version of iTunes, so it is no longer compatible with the previous version. The good news, however, is that Apple save the iTunes library file in a subdirectory that allows you to revert to the previous version.
Method 1:
You can try the steps to recover a previous version of the iTunes Library.itl file.
a. open your folder My Documents\My Music\ (Itunes).
b. we backup the current version first. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library.itl.bak to something.
c. go to the My Documents\My Music\Previous of iTunes libraries folder.
d. you can see several files that start with the iTunes library and have a date included in the name. Copy the new file into the folder.
f. return to the my documents\Ma music and paste the file in the previous step. (The folder in step 1)
g. rename the new file copied to iTunes Library.itl.
Your library should now be restored to the previous version of iTunes, and the problem is solved,
Method 2:
If the problem persists then you can also uninstall and reinstall iTunes and check if it helps:
Remove and reinstall iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
