This change was made when iTunes 9.0 was released. Store pages are delivered using standard HTML with a special header. At first I considered this limitation just another silly caprice on Apple’s part, then I remembered that it was a technical issue.

Also thanks to my Twitter contacts, I soon discovered that you can’t access the iTunes Store anymore if you don’t have at least iTunes 9.2.1 (in other words, unless you have a Mac with Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger and a G4 CPU).
Which means that I couldn’t access the iTunes Store. Back to iTunes, I was able to log into my account, only to be shown this page as the Store home page: Sorry, Apple, I can't upgrade to iTunes 10 on a PowerBook G3. Among my findings, the quick and dirty solution has been to launch Keychain Access, go to Keychain List and check the Global option for my account keychain and for the System keychain. I searched for a solution on the Web and turns out that Panther had a small bug of some sort affecting keychains and the possibility to access secure pages on Safari and iTunes (hence the strange error). So, within a few minutes I knew that the latest version of QuickTime supported by Mac OS X Panther is 7.5 and the latest version of iTunes is 7.7.1.Īfter installing both updates, I launched iTunes and tried to access the iTunes Store, but when I tried to sign in with my Apple ID, iTunes threw a strange error about not finding the keychain and suggested I ran Keychain First Aid from inside the Keychain Access application.
In both cases you’ll find an exhaustive table outlining each Mac OS system version with the correspondent latest version of the software, with direct links for downloading (or at least with updated links to Apple Support pages from where you can download the desired version). Now, I must admit that the Wikipedia was quite helpful in this regard, and my hunt ended way before I had expected. Strangely, these updates are not included when you run Software Update, and the versions of iTunes and QuickTime in my installation - 4.0.1 and 6.4 respectively - were obviously too outdated, albeit functional (I was able to listen to some Internet radio stations on iTunes).

After my DVD Player discoveries, my next step after applying the Mac OS X 10.3.9 Combo Update and installing all the aforementioned updates, has been to look for the latest versions of iTunes and QuickTime supported under Panther.
