ITunes :: Downgrade To 9.2.1 Using Time Machine?

Apr 25, 2012

how to downgrade from iTunes 10 to iTunes 9.2.1 using Time Machine. I've researched but I'm still unsure if I'm supposed to be retrieving and/or trashing files or not (I've never restored anything with Time Machine before). If I could do it without having to re-create the library and playlists; that's be great.

Info:
iMac 5,1 Intel Core 2 Duo, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

OS X :: ITunes 10 Deleted Library - Did Time Machine Backup Prior To ITunes 10?

Sep 7, 2010

I just updated my iTunes but it appears it deleted my library. This sucks because I have spent HOURS upon HOURS sorting it, renaming crooked song titles, finding covers and all that stuff. I used time machine to back up my computer like 5 days ago, but I can't figure out how to use it. I wish I could just select that given day (when I made my last backup) and make it turn everything back to what it was back then.How do I do this exactly? I don't care at all if I have to go back to the old iTunes (obviously they will fix this eventually!) - I just want it to look like it did a few days ago.

Applications :: Time Machine Transfer Of ITunes Error Between ITunes Versions?

Feb 21, 2009

I am a new mac user (total convert--am on my second iMac in a month and am about to buy a macbook), and am having trouble with my itunes service. My first 24" iMac developed a clicking HDD, so I was lucky enough to be able to bring it back to the shop for a replacement iMac. I made a time machine backup of the first Mac and copied directly to the second one (which was flawless....how come I haven't been using macs prior to now? I've lost dozens of backups on PC). The only issue I've had is with iTunes--I keep getting an error that the iTunes library is newer than the version of iTunes on the computer. Is there anyway to fix this without losing my entire library of songs? I did make up a physical copy of the iTunes folder on my first Mac, just in case, so I assume that I could delete iTunes and reinstall a fresh copy, update it, and then copy the iTunes folder over to the new version. But this is a Windows approach to the issue and there is probably a simpler way of fixing this. Alternately, I could do the same but sync my iPod and copy everything to my library that way.

ITunes :: Downgrade From It 10.6.3 To 10.6.1?

Jun 25, 2012

iTunes 10.6.3 is sandboxed and no longer communicates with calibre. One way round this would be to downgrade to 10.6.1 which does not have this limitation.

Being a not very smart guy, I updated to 10 and realized I dislike it.Is there a simple way for me to downgrade? I have a time machine backup, but I've done enough since then that I don't want to completely restore from a backup, if I can just the iTunes application.Can I reinstall the older version without removing my play counts/playlists/stuff like that?

ITunes :: My Time Machine Out Of Space

May 3, 2012

I back up to a time capsule. I got a message saying that the last backup failed due to lack of space. It used to auto-delete old backups to make space for new ones. I entered time machine preferences and didn't see an option for "delete old backups to make space for new". I'm running the latest version of Lion with the latest update for Time Capsule installed.

OS X :: Restoring Just ITunes Library From Time Machine

Feb 3, 2009

A day ago, for an unknown reason, hundreds of my songs in my iTunes library lost their link location. I painstakingly got about 10% through refinding the location to each song but I got to thinking. Is there a way through Time Machine to just restore my library the way it was 2 days ago? Are there specific files I can copy over?

OS X :: ITunes Deleted Music - Should Have Used Time Machine..

Feb 9, 2009

I added a few new albums to different artist folders, and instead of adding each folder to the library individually [using "Add to Library" from the File menu], I decided to take a shortcut and add my entire Music folder to the Library.

Now, a load of stuff is missing, and I have a massive collection, so I don't know exactly what's there and exactly what has gone. Searching using Finder confirms that the files are completely gone from my hard drive.

MacBook Pro :: ITunes + Time Machine Not Playing Well Together?

Sep 30, 2009

I've run into this issue before.When setting up a MBP after a fresh install of Leopard or Snow Leopard, I usually choose to transfer files and setting from Time Machine. But whenever I do this, iTunes suddenly can no longer "find" most of my songs, even though they are in the iTunes folder, and I have to spend days telling iTunes where to find each of the missing tracks.What could be causing this, and how do I fix it?

OS X :: Time Machine Not Integrated With ITunes IPhoto

Mar 27, 2010

When I have iTunes in focus and enter Time Machine, it opens a Finder window behind iTunes, brings it into focus, then goes into Time Machine for Finder. Same with iPhoto. The only thing that seems to work properly is Mail (I can have it in focus, enter Time Machine, and use the Mail interface to restore e-mail).

I've had my MacBook for 2 years now, and it still runs good. But I would like to do a clean install, but I don't want to loose my itunes library and iphoto library. Things like play counts and ratings and playlists etc. I've got everything backed up to my time machine but if I do a clean install can I just restore those two programs or is it all or nothing.

Time machine keeps copying the whole itunes library. Again, again, again. That used to be different, time machine used to just back up the changes.

So I erased the itunes library from time machine & restored 1 TB (!!!). I would like to have time machine back up the itunes library once, then just the changes. Is that possible?

Applications :: Time Machine Keeps Backing Up ITunes Library

Sep 19, 2010

I'm having a problem with time machine repeatedly backing up my /~/Music/iTunes directory. Everytime I plug in my drive, I get a 192Gb backup which will loop continuously. I've confirmed that it's this directory using BackupLoupe and have reset time machine, repaired the disk with no errors, completely reformatted my time machine disk, and continue to have these issues. Console shows no real issue, backupd process simply requests a 192Gb backup and proceeds with it. While I cannot be sure, this appears to have started sometime after the 10.6.4 update.

Hardware :: Time Machine And ITunes Library Backup

Jul 26, 2010

So I finally got a TB hard drive and am using Time Machine to backup my MacBook Pro which has about 4 GB of free space on it. Most of my hard drive is taken up with music files. I want to know how I can move my library to my external drive (maybe just doing time machine will do this?) but keep some file on my computer so I can play them without the external drive. What's the best route? I know that consolidating my library to another drive will do half of what I want, but what about keeping some songs on my computer- like 50 GB worth (but I will also want these songs on the external drive so that they are backed up!)

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Time Machine Deletes ITunes TV Shows

Feb 21, 2012

I've set up time machine on my new mac, it all seemed to be working well. I have a WD external hard drive 500GB (my estimated backup size is about 50GB). I have all my media on another WD hard drive, this is not in scope for back up. I run time machine and it all goes well. Just after a few weeks I noticed that some of my TV shows were missing from iTunes, when I actually check the files on the external hard drive they are missing, they are also not in the trash. I wasn't sure what was causing this but this happened a few times. Eventually I turned off time machine and now I don't have the issue anymore.

ITunes For Mac :: Incomplete Library After Migrating From Time Machine

Dec 5, 2014

I have a new iMac on which I used Migration Assistant to migrate all my data from the Time Machine backup of my old iMac. The Mac is running 10.10.1 and my old Mac is running Mavericks, fully updated.Everything went smoothly except for iTunes. Some of the Library did not appear in the new iTunes and of those that did, some of music is not available.

The error message appears.I tried finding the original Library on Time Machine, and copying it back to the new mac. I checked the Library on the old iMac where the backup came from and all works. Various methods suggested on the forums have resulted in most of the Library being listed, but with some random songs and albums still showing the above error message. I can still access my old Mac for the Library if needed. How to get complete Library into the new iTunes?

iMac (27-inch, Late 2013), OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

Applications :: ITunes Empty After Restoring From Time Machine Backup?

Sep 19, 2010

When I was setting up the MBP, I opted to restore from a Time Machine backup and expected everything to go off without a hitch.

When I opened iTunes though, everything was blank -- no songs or videos were listed at all. My playlists were still there though but also blank.

When I checked my Music folder in Finder, everything was still there so I tried manually adding one mp3 to see if it would show up on iTunes. iTunes just played the mp3 but it still wouldn't show up in the Music list.

OS X :: Time Machine Didn't Backup ITunes And IPhotos Libraries

Jan 18, 2010

First I was lucky that I didn't trust this "time machine", I could've just formatted the drive after I did the time machine back up and end up wiping my entire itunes library, Here is what happend, I only had two instances of time machine back up, both to the same external HD which has more than plenty of space. The first TM backup was immediately after a fresh install of snow leopard, online updates, and some important apps. iTunes and iPhotos library was empty at that moment. I thought I'd just restore this backup when I need a fresh install later. Then today I decided to wipe out everything on my MBP and have a fresh install, so I did the second TM backup in an expectation that it would back up everything new since the last backup, including my itunes and iphotos library. It turned out that TM (treacherously) didn't do that and tell me backup was done (AKA the infamous FALSE TRUE, the worst scenario of logics). When I checked the backup directory on the external HD, and the itunes directory reported a miserable size of 123kb, which was supposed to be around 20gb. same goes for the iPhotos library, there was no backup. Abandoning this fashion machine, I manually copied the libraries, taking some time but at least I know what I'm doing. Anyway, back to top, Is is a known issue or is TM designed in this way?
