My iMac G4 was stored away many years ago, and is in nearly brand new condition, with a freshly restored system, and recently install OS X 10.4.
I am using an Airport Express as a bridge, connected to my G4 via an ethernet cable, for my internet connection.
My goal is to use this beautiful machine in my kitchen as an on-line cookbook and iTunes library, to play through these wonderful speakers. Now that I am on-line, my problem is how to update this G4 with a late enough version of iTunes, so that I may either transfer my current library over to the G4, or share my iTunes library which resides on my iMac 2015.
The iTunes version on the G4 is 6.0.4, while the version on my later iMac is 12.5.5. I have early iPods, which I can load portions of my library onto, but when I connect them to the G4, the music does not show up. If I connect a later model iPod, it gives me a disk error.
I grew up in a time when computers were at their infancy, and after all these years, I am still unsure of myself when tackling these types of issues. I would be so grateful if someone has a solution to this frustrating problem.
Sincerely Susan
