i installed ubuntu 13.04 on my laptop and then playonlinux.I want to install iTunes.But i dont find it in the search box of the playonlinux install menu.Can any of u guys pls help me.Thank you..cheers...:-)

Hi,
Check the "testing" filter checkbox, it's a beta script.
However, to avoid wasted efforts, why do you want to use iTunes for?

I was wondering the same thing. If you are trying to sync your iDevice to it, dont bother. iDevice sync does not work on Linux yet, unfortunately. At least not to my knowledge.

petch i dont get the window with testing as check box.i get a window where i ve to select something from a menu....can some one help me on that...thank you...:-)

I suspect that the problem is that the script doesn't download iTunes for you, so you must have downloaded it already, and it asks where the file is.
You haven't answered my question either.

ah you ve a good question...:-)
and why isn't itunes on linux..??

Because its an Apple product, and apple only wants you to use their stuff.

Again, even if you get itunes installed, you cant use it with your ipod or phone or iAnything, so what are you trying to do with itunes, because if its that, it wont work at all.

Was just curious to backup my iphone..no probs i ll use my desktop...:-)))
Is there any news for itunes on linux..may be in the future..?

I've been told that Amarok features syncing, but haven't tried personally.

I have tried. It does for older versions of the firmware, but if your iDevice has been updated in the last year, it will probably fail.

Amarok with the gtkpod package installed used to work. Its worth trying.

to the OP amarok synchs well with apple music devices

That all depends on iOS version on your device and device type. No problem trying it though. Just dont be surprised if it doenst work.

where can I download an installer for itunes compatible with the version on playonlinux?
