Re: iTunes and iPod 4 Touch registration
ipod(s) version 4 onwards require 10.5 , so there is no way round the registration, also the ipods software will not be up-to-date to use with 10.4 and cannot be updated manually. You will need 10.5 on the ac to complete n use or try in find a older ipod say on eBay to use it. There are specs in the literture for the ipod and it will day 10.5 or greater On Dec 26, 1:21 am, Jim McGee orb...@dslextreme.com wrote: Hi All - I recently turned over a Quicksilver867running10.4.11, all updates installed, to my step daughter She has purchased an iPod4Touch and is trying to get the registration completed.

Hi again folks- Well I didn't get a chance to try an update to the step daughter's iTunes. Instead, she came over with her iPod 4 and was able to get it registered via my MDD w/ Leopard. Sooo the problem is solved (?).

iTunes and iPod 4 Touch registration
Hi All - I recently turned over a Quicksilver 867 running 10.4.11, all updates installed, to my step daughter She has purchased an iPod 4 Touch and is trying to get the registration completed. While following registration instructions the system is telling her she needs iTunes 10.1 which I gather doesn't work in Tiger (She can't complete the registration). Is there a way around this ? I don't suppose she could install the latest iTunes version in 10.4.11 (I think we're talking v7.3) ?

Thanks, Jim McGee (aka: mudbro) While I haven't tried it on 10.4, the description on the iTunes page seems to indicate that 10.1.1 (the current version) does work with 10.4 or later on g4, g5 or intel Macs. However, they say it takes a 1 gig or faster processor...so the 867 may not work? If the website can tell its not a 1 gig machine maybe that's the problem? Can she use some other computer to do the registration? Or could you do the registration for her from your machine and just put in her address/email info in the form? -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: iTunes and iPod 4 Touch registration
You should be able to run iTunes v.9.2.1 in Tiger 10.4.11. I'm almost certain this will allow registration and sync with an iPod 4 Touch? If not, I'd bitch to Apple. You can install iTunes 10.1.1 on your G4, but it requires Leopard OS 10.5.8, which is supported for 867MHz G4 and greater. You can install iTunes 10.1.1 on 10.4.11 using Pacifist and it might work? I haven't seen that anyone has tried this yet, so you could be first if you're adventuresome? I'd try iTunes 9.2.1 first. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Thanks Kris, et al, for the quick response. I will go to her place and download the 9.2.1 and see if that gets her going and report back.. Great Info, guys !!! I am confused though, by thinking that all the software updates were done a week ago and yet the version shown for her iTunes reports 7.3. Any comments on this ?
