[rpenguin12345]

what song is this called?

[ashrafsobli]

thanks for the vid ! it helps a lot ... by the way, what's the name of background music u use ?

[carlmilton1981]

why the pissing hell did you put this aweful track over the top, I'm leaving now you utter tosser

[balabalance97]

i have mint 9 will this still work?

[victorfalini]

@balabalance97 i don't know, i'm almost sure it will though :D so try it out and let me know man

[afplyr05]

Ok, did not see how you were actually able to start installing the itunes. I saw you downloaded it, then opened and change a setting in wine to Xp, but how did you actually get it to start installing?

[gfcjunior83]

Que porra!



[trevorbright101]

this video was helpful i just wish he would have put the "THIS ONLY WORKS WITH ITUNES 9.0.2" first because 10.2 was realy pissing me off

[sulhaq]

Psssh. I redact my comment. It's pretty damn clear that even when you try to help your fellow man, all the internet has to offer is dumbassery.

[technologyvictim]

i tried to download the latest version of itunes but doesnt work with wine

i tested it on ubuntu 11.04, banshee is not sync song with my iphone so the only solution is virtualbox but i hate using virtual box for everything why not install windows only on my pc at first time ?

[poggyproductions]

Didn't work /: I did everything and it just simply gave me an Error: 7 oh well

[sulhaq]

This video might possibly indict you for illegally downloading COD5. Might wanna censor that and re-upload.

[victorfalini]

@sulhaq it's cod 5 for fucking nintendo ds

i wanted to see if my nds emulator worked

who cares

[thesmartdjmarsh]

@sulhaq Yeah WTF are you gunna do about it, huh?

[DocUnsane]

you got paid to put this song on huh?

[Lbckf]

will this work with itunes 10.1.1? Also nice dock btw.

[supermaques]

ha nice background, i really dig jamie.

[1234567pippi]

does it work with 9.0.3 update for itunes??? please help......soooo frustrated

[Dynose]

can i sync my iphone? pllease help...

[SuperFULLPC]

This not function to restore iphone

[TheDestroyerx1]

FOR YOU LINUX UBUNTU PEOPLE GO ON THE UBUNTU SOFTWARE STORE AND DOWNLOAD GTKPOD OR THIS OTHER IPOD MANGER THEY WORK AND THEIR FREE SO F*CK ITUNES FOR NOW(BUT BE SURE TO USE A CONDOM)

[TheS2HD]

ermm how do i get the WINE software ? :D

[1234567pippi]

@TheS2HD

you can just go to google.com and then type in wine and something like winehq will pop up and click it. click the tab wine and click install, there are directions. once installed you will need to scroll down and update it it 1.3, and then thats all, it should be under applications on your desktop

[exra82]

@TheS2HD search wine under software center

[xxdieleaxx]

well i have suse but when i (after wine configuration etc.) wanna install that thing i always get the message: The installation of QuickTime did not complete successfully. iTunes requires QuickTime.

Aaah? what should i do? :(

[tricec]

Wow, never seen a video with this song before.....

[victorfalini]

@tricec ahahahahha i love irony

[abdi7451]

@victorfalini lol i think you mean sarcasism

[germantown555]

@victorfalini sarcasm

[kaye123ism]

como instalaste safari en ubuntu?

[michaelteter]

What a waste of 7 minutes. Could you spend any more time wiggling your windows around? I didn't get enough of it in the first minute...

Your whole video could be condensed to three lines of text.

1. Set Wine to pretend to be XP

2. Download and install iTunes 9.0.2

3. Run it, watch it puke; kill it; rerun it

[Promistol]

thubmbs down just for the song

[slicrick19]

hey bro i got ubuntu 10.04 can i use the same method as u show here??

[victorfalini]

@slicrick19 yea!!

[thisuserhas]

hey mate,

Cheers for the vid - what screen capture software are you using?

[victorfalini]

@thisuserhas recordmydesktop

[rifall]

Hey, I uninstalled Wine because it was causing problems, and I still see a Wine Folder with subfolders containing apps in my Applications drop menu. How do I get rid of this?

[victorfalini]

@rifall right click on the menu and select edit menus, then on the left side select wine and delete it

hope it helps ;)

[rifall]

@victorfalini does it also get rid of the files from my computer?

[MrAb5623]

thanks it worked but i have a question where did you get the apple theme?

[victorfalini]

@MrAb5623 i have a video uploaded for that

check it out ;)

[AllYouLikeIsHere]

if i install this on windows xp..i can uninstall this and still use xp?

[rifall]

@AllYouLikeIsHere There is a way to install it like that. Just check the Ubuntu web site.

[sixthshot]

unless you're a mute, a little explanation could go a long way.

[victorfalini]

@sixthshot the video was made before i got my mic working :P

[Perihelion99]

I tried installing itunes on lucidlynx the whole thing started having spasms. basically i am looking for ipod support on ubuntu tried gtkpod(Cannot play songs weird interface), yamipod (cannot get it 2 open), rhythmbox, exaile, banshee u name it. NONE of these were able to support ipod playlists. Support for ipod is horrible on ubuntu. looked on forums there is some help with caveats like ur system maynot do what i show here. linux has got 2 streamline somewhere.

[rifall]

@Perihelion99 we should all complain to Apple to code iTunes for Linux.

[Tuleele]

@Perihelion99 I use rythmbox and have had no problems thus far playing anything off of or even uploading onto my iphone

[Trilinguist]

dude this music is so overused urg.

[goguda55]

Can I ask what version of wine you were using when you made this video?

[TheYigit27]

Ok , but someone else could help me ?!

[TheYigit27]

I bought yesterday an Ipod Tocuh 8GB.

It says to me download itunes 8,2+.

So I download 9.Once and over and again.

When it was installed it said ERROR to me.

It still doesn't work.

Then i tried Itunes 8,2.

That didn't work to.

Could someone help me PLEASE?

[victorfalini]

@TheYigit27 sorry i can´t help you, i´m on vacation

[IVgrandtheftauto]

@TheYigit27 what generation is it?

[TheYigit27]

@IVgrandtheftauto My generation is 3.1.3

[IVgrandtheftauto]

@TheYigit27 you mean firmware?

[Ubumaniaes]

it's better to install itunes on playonlinux

[victorfalini]

@Ubumaniaes older version , this video is about itunes 9 , read the title please =)

[Ubumaniaes]

@victorfalini

i just realized that the itunes avaliable on payonlinux was the itunes 7 haha

but i dont really see tha difference

[dylancoimbra]

What's the name of the first music ?? please!

[Mattsana]

How did you get your system to look so close to Mac? Using Mac4Lin or something else?

[victorfalini]

@Mattsana mac4lin + cairo dock

[ZavCoyote]

@victorfalini I used to a have a LOT of tweaks on my PC when I ran Linux. On a side-to-side comparison, there was no way to know what was the Mac and what was the Linux.

And if I get iTunes to work... Heck, I might reinstall!

[guroto00]

i dont like it

[MrCristuto]

you cant sinc ipod on linux with the itunes

[1919k]

Unless you specifically need Itunes you're best just using rhythmbox which is just as good imo. 

[djkoziiqn]

Great Video :D, I wish you would have pluged in a ipod to see if it really worked :/



[victorfalini]

@djkoziiqn my ipod was broken at the time of the making of the video, had to sent it for repairs

[truesivad]

there's a couple of linux talk shows on itunes when i searched for linux books for free lol but still no download for itunes for linux

[TheFordraptor16]

i cant get it to work for ubuntu linux 9.10 and itunes 9.1.1 and i just cant seem to get it to work and every time it askes me to uninstall it and then reinstall the program.

[oscarfish48]

what screen recorder are you using?

[kiwiryannz]

how did u get that dock?

[kiwiryannz]

what dock is that?

how did you get it for ubuntu?

[drahos2]

so i did what you said to do and im stuck with the iTunes.lnk and the iTunes app and when i start up iTunes it says that some files are missing and i downloaded it like 2 times. What do i do and can someone help me.

[Explosivecartuner88]

Wine sucks..

[noveron714]

will this work with itunes 9.1

[princedamian12]

wow your pro :]

[cietod88]

5* dude but Mac theme for Linux sucks :) ubuntu looks best out of the box IMO.

[tsm124]

docky i sway better then all the dock programs

[linuxguy2009]

I would guess your around 12 right?

[victorfalini]

@linuxguy2009 no i am 15, why?

[nixsic]

after mine installs there is no iTunes.lnk or iTunes.desktop what's the problem?

[tareksobhs]

@supermut32z LOL!! I kinda agree, but I don't have the money to get a mac... They're too expensive... Maybe in the future I will, but most probably that I'll still install Linux Ubuntu on it side by side with OS X... Believe me Ubuntu is really that good and it's for free!

[sohama18]

thank 4 this

[man1234567893232]

Nice mac theme and "swirvy" window movements or whatever u wanna call it ahah. and good video thanks

[EnduroMo]

What application are you using for the Mac'esque hotbar on the bottom of the screen. That is very cool.

[victorfalini]

@EnduroMo it is called cairo dock (available on the software center) with a Mac OS X theme

[EnduroMo]

Cool. Thanks victorfalini. Installed it in lieu of Docky. Found docky to be a little flaky.

[rossmage]

how come apple hasnt released a linux version of itunes?

[victorfalini]

because linux is only 1% of desktops

[LinuxShogoki]

@victorfalini one percent for desktops sold and such, but there is no TRUE way to really measure the amount of people that use linux desktops, except have evry linux-user announce it one day ;)

[iPCAdministrator]

mine keeps saying: error

Any help please?

[mrlopes1234]

@

murderslastcrow

True but i've been using Ubuntu for a few years now. Don't get me wrong, it's good, there are some really nice features but you do get what you pay for. ( Ubuntu's free...lol )

You have to know a lot about computers to be able to get it all working properly. I know quite a bit but I still find some bugs.

[mrlopes1234]

This does not work!!!!!!

I'm having the same problem as in the video response.

Ubuntu is good but you have to do too much work to get things how you want them and in the end they never work 100% :(

[victorfalini]

@mrlopes1234

you need to download itunes 9.0.2

[Raja221]

BLAME APPLE for not releasing a linux version of itunes. dont balme UBUNTU... if you want to use ubuntu USE alternatives like songbirn and banshee and others AMAROK is good too. DOnt blame unbuntu for gaming or applications made by 3rd party companies. it is them not making a linux app is teh problem. not WINE. WE need to demand linux applications from them. BECAUSE alot of us USE linux

[BradleyKust]

@Raja221

damn right

[tareksobhs]

People at Apple are real assholes! They're trying to manipulate us into "getting a mac" by not supporting the Apple devices on Linux! We must have the complete freedom of choosing whatever OS we want to use, and if we bought iPods, Apple should support us and at least provide an iTunes version for Ubunut!! Those bastards at Apple won't even let Songbird to support iPods!! That's it!! I'm throwing my iPod out of the window!! SCREW YOU APPLE!!!

[gaskete]

i got an error when installing itunes.. watch the video responses..

[tokijitza]

when i click on Itunes.exe it says that an error occurred while loading the archive. WHY????

[shinto29]

@tokijitza you need Wine search it up

[deekismusic]

I followed your steps but at the end it says installer encountered errors. I'm using the newest version 9.0.3

[leopardgeckochet]

what does WINE do???

[shinto29]

@leopardgeckochet it allows you to run windows programs.

[deekismusic]

hehe, i got iTunes downloading at 2 megabytes a second.

[primo6711]

also whats the song

[imapcstephen]

the song is called breath machine...im not sure who its by though

[primo6711]

can you sync you itouch with this?

[mikeb929man1]

How do you get the mac dock?

[spectrospirit]

Its cairo dock, wich really add some flavour to a boring ubuntu...

[primo6711]

@spectrospirit cairo dock is failing to install for me ubuntu 9.10

[LOLgerasim]

i did everything like in this video but itunes won't start i have it on desktop but it won't start it says itunes error 7 and i downloaded the itunes 9.03 version not itunes 9.02 cuz i cant find the older version :(

[jayrellz]

This is an O.M.G moment.

[pos6666666]

This worked perfect for me.Thanks for the video.

[tukacsincsillla]

@pos6666666 Do u have graphical bugs too?

[fireseagle101]

senti ma cosa hai usato per fare il video e per mettere l'audio su linux ? :|

comunque ottimo video :-)

[Ecrews06]

oh and how did you get the mac like setup?!

[pos6666666]

In epidermis there is a theme and then you can download the mac add on for fire fox and your all set.

[123cbskater]

i did everything but when i went into applications / wine/programs and nothing came up except notes what should i do

[kingmedabe]

I have Wine 1.1.36. I did everything you did, except that the itunes ink file does not appear on my desktop. Suggestions?

[victorfalini]

if the installation terminated correctly you should find itunes in Applications>wine>Programs>itu­nes

[Ecrews06]

Anyone doing this make sure you have WIne version1.1.32. or it won't work.

Vic

I did this and i open itunes but it runs EXTREMELY slow and i cant seem to do anything about it.. it freezes up on me. any suggestions?!

[ThatAsianNinja]

when i try to open the itunes installer it says the windows installer service could not be accesed. this can occur if you are running windows in safe mode or windows installer is not installed right.

what should i do? im not running in safe mode

[victorfalini]

@ThatAsianNinja try it whith wine 1.1.32

[crashovverride]

ciao! volevo chiederti: usi abbastanza itunes qui su linux?? mi interessa sapere se và bene o se bisogna aspettare che lo sistemino meglio con wine (tralasciando il bug grafico). Avendo l'iphone puoi immaginare il xkè della mia domanda.

poi già che c'ero ti chiedevo altre 2 cose: 1) il nome del tema delle finestre che usi =P 2) ho visto che hai messo su anche WLM.. anche lui come si comporta, usandolo, spesso???

[victorfalini]

wlm è da 1 mese che non funziona piu perche microsoft ti costringe ad aggiornare alla ultima versione di wlm che non sono riuscito a far funzionare pero senno funzionava molto bene (vedi il mio video di wlm)

itunes non lo ho usato per altro che ascoltare musica e quindi non sono sicuro che funzioni con l'iphone . il tema che uso si chiama mac4lin (cercatelo è anche facilissimo da installare, magari ci faccio anche un video oggi)

e la dock si chiama cairo dock con un tema mac installato

[crashovverride]

eh immaginavo per WLM. Quei bastardi hanno aggiornato anche i protocolli...ergo con programmi come Amsn non si riesce piu' a salvare il nickname che si usa e quelli degli altri. Ad ogni riavvio compaiono le email :S fin che un utente non viene online.

per itunes allora, caso mai, farò dei test...

La dock lo sapevo che era cairo! =P mi interessavano le finestre con i pulsanti colorati come il mac: giallo,verde,rosso..

grazie infinite per la risposta!! gentilissimo! =]

[jaxjagsman]
