Here's a link to an explanation of how to get iTunes 10.7 working in Mavericks: You may be able to get iTunes 10.7 working in Yosemite, but possibly with a hiccup or two. I currently back up via Time Machine - presumably that's all I need rather than a clone backup? I still have my Snow Leopard install disks, and anyway I'll know soon enough whether I want to upgrade, from running Yosemite on the eHD. However I can always try out 10.7 in Yosemite, as you suggest. I've used iTunes going back to iTunes 2, and I'm not going to lose my projects or start finding them awkward to deal with, or lose the Doug scripts which I depend on.
I'm no fan of Album View, I don't know why Apple thinks everyone uses that or even wants it. I will not touch iTunes 11 or later with a bargepole, and it would stop me upgrading to Yosemite as I have several large projects on iTunes going back years, all of which require Cover Flow and List View and all sorts of other things no longer part of iTunes. I've never found an older version of iTunes (that is still available from Apple) that won't run on the latest OS. I would be VERY surprised if Yosemite can only run iTunes 12? iTunes is an Apple product that is supported all the way back to Tiger, maybe even further.
Of course you can play around and see if you can get iTunes 10.7 to run under your external drive installation of Yosemite, since a part of your purpose is to experiment with it.īe sure to partition your external hard drive before installing and make a clone backup of your internal drive so you have that to fall back on should anything go wrong with the internal installation when you get to that point. There is no longer a custom install as in the good old days.only install. iTunes 10.7 is not likely to run under Yosemite. I would have to go back and check, but I think iTunes 12 is what is the version Yosemite insists on to run. It should function from anywhere, in theory, but I just don't like challenging it to make a mistake 😉 It is best to use copy rather than move as the installer normally resides in the Applications folder when it is started, leaving it there, or copying it there later for another installation, is less likely to cause confusion for the installer. That is why it is smart to make a copy of the installer before initiating the install process. When the installer completes the install process, the final step is to erase itself.
