iTunes For Windows 002

Get iTunes for Windows 10

Knowing now what we need to install iTunes on our computer, let’s proceed to it.

The first place where we should happen to look is on the manufacturer’s website. Effectively Apple has on its website a link to the Microsoft page to obtain this application. We will only have to click on the “Get it from Microsoft” button to access.

Once inside the linked page, we click on “Get.” We will only have to click on it, and again we will be redirected to the Microsoft Store. It is possible that the browser asks us for authorization to be redirected, it is a trusted site so we will not have problems accepting it.

Once inside Microsoft Store, we choose the option to install so that Windows 10 automatically downloads and installs the application. Once finished we will have it available in our start menu so that we can start it.

We accept the license terms at the first start, and it will be ready to be used.

Things you should keep in mind

iTunes is a free download application for Windows 10. This means that you can listen to all the music you have downloaded on your computer in it without having an Apple account. In this sense, iTunes will behave like a normal and current player.

To buy music and play it online, we must have the corresponding payment account in Apple.

iTunes is an excellent way to have all our iOS devices synchronized and also our Windows 10 PC and be able to play all the music that we buy or that we simply have inside our music CDs or the equipment itself.

If you are a user of a device with iOS and you did not know that iTunes for Windows 10 existed, this article will have come to you from pearls. Leave us in the comments which player you use to listen to music or any doubt you have about any of them.
