Update to iTunes installation in Win9X/ME

M

MEB

Angel, I am truly sorry, I must to apologize to you. I completely missed
the link to the iTunes 7.3.2 version that was suggested to you, on the Apple
site.

I just happened to need to go back for the new version for a VISTA box I am
working on [itself a wasted effort as the new iTunes would not download to
this 9X box] and noticed the Windows 2000 link at the bottom of the download
windows. {okay, don't hit me}

About iTunes 7.3.2 for Windows 2000
iTunes is the best way to enjoy your digital music and video with your PC,
iPod and Apple TV. iTunes 7.3.2 for Windows 2000 is designed to work with
Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 or later.
iTunes 7.3.2 for Windows 2000 - 37.98 megs

http://wsidecar.apple.com/cgi-bin/n...9&platform=osx&method=sa/iTunesSetupWin2K.exe

Which redirected/resolved to this:
http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.../061-3611.20070802.0o6t4/iTunesSetupWin2K.exe

Again, I apologize for my previous error. I'm not sure which link will work
for you. Having stated that, now comes the "well that was a waste of hours
of download time [modem]" it won't work, and why Apple may not have created
a player for iPod/iTunes for 9X/ME:

Having expanded [administrative install] the itunes.msi:

The Apple software appears to be using third party created files/drivers.

Moreover, the application requires at least QuickTime 7.1.6.200 [included
in the master file] be installed.

It might be interesting to see if perhaps there were GEAR drivers created
for 9X/ME which would allow its usage, though they would likely need
modified to work within Apple's software.

Hi MEB,
Na, I won't hit you. Apologize accepted. I do not think I can use it
with the windows '98. Those are only download sites. I stopped when it
wanted to download it . I did not want to take the chance of it messing up
my computer. I had just got done with fixing it. I had to get rid of the
SpyBot and ZA. I discovered that the SpyBot updates had messes it up. Then I
reinstalled the SpyBot and right now it is working GREAT! (Knock on
wood!!!).

One of the ladies in one of my classes, downloaded the Podcasts from
the professor at the library, for her own use because she could not get on
the web with her computer. She burned some copies for me. To me, she is a
real angel!

Thanks MEB for the links. I will keep them in case that the person that
promised me the computer With ME will come through with it. He still does
not have all of his stuff off it. It has been +or-6 months now!

Okay, but I think I threw you off track, the application will NOT
apparently work with 9X or ME.
If you look below, you'll find that it calls aspects/files/functions which
are not available in either OS, just the NT based systems, and 2000
specifically [XP and VISTA got new a application].

So really, even though we couldn't find the file the first go-round, it
wouldn't have done you any good,, unless you have W2K.

Hi MEB,

Someone who knows computers said that *it may* work with ME. I
guess the key word would be *MAY*. He did not tell me how hard it would be
to do it or how good it would work. He builds them himself for his own use.
He works in Graphics. I think I will stick to trying to do it at the
University Computer Lab. I have been waiting for a LONG time to get that old
computer of his. Promised some + or -6 months. I am glad I have not been
holding my breath. Thanks for the heads up.

That is encouraging, but I would want to see how he gets it to work, and
how well it does... Please keep me informed, if there is some way to easily
port the application, I am definately interested [and I'm sure millions of
others may be as well].
If he is unwilling to post publicly, send him to my site and have him send
me the mods via email [the address is encrypted but is automatically
decrypted in mail progs when the link is pressed] or at least the notes on
how and I WILL test them, keeping him anonymous if desired, or he can do so
via something like MSFN.

In fact, I keep waiting for someone to pop into one of these discussions
with a real program to access iTunes, be it a port or otherwise. Though DRM,
Apple's licensings, and other aspects likely come into play ....
