Update iTunes: How to get an update

When iTunes starts, your computer usually automatically checks for updates. You can also update iTunes manually. You can read how this works in the following practical tip.

How to update your iTunes version

1. Open iTunes and go to the menu bar. If this is not shown to you, you can also call up the menu by pressing the [Alt] key.
2. The last menu item after "Control" and "Store" is a question mark. The update option is also hidden here.
3. Click "Check for updates" to install the latest iTunes version, if available.

The instructions are based on iTunes 11.0.4.4 under Windows 7. For Mac OS you will find the updates in the menu item "Help".
