The very program that warmed me up to the company told me that I cannot continue using the iTunes store unless I upgrade the iTunes program to a later version. Very well; one always wants the latest version. After downloading version 7.0.2 and beginning the installation, I am notified that I cannot install this version of iTunes on my current version of Mac OS X.
And I wonder why. It works on Windows, doesn't it? And XP is definitely older than OS X 10.2.8. After some investigation, I come to one conclusion:
It's going to cost me $129 to listen to the music I already paid for. iTunes will open and operate (I currently have the pre-installed version 4.9) but I can't authorize this computer so that I can play the music I purchased at the iTunes store (previously, with another computer.) So as I see it, the only solution is to upgrade to Mac OS X 10.4, which, as I said before, is $129.
On second look, it's $138.99. I don't have a DVD drive, so I'll have to get the CD-ROM version for an extra $9.99.
I really don't mean to put this thing down. Maybe I'll get past that part and see what every Mac user likes so much about it. My use is still very limited and I have been using Windows for 15 years. It all takes time.
