Setting iTunes Restrictions for Mac OS X
On Mac OS X, you control access by using keys in a plist file. On Mac OS X the key
values shown above can be specified for each user by editing ~/Library/Preferences/
com.apple.iTunes.plist using Workgroup Manager, an administrative tool included with
Mac OS X Server.
For instructions, see the Apple Support article at http://docs.info.apple.com/
article.html?artnum=303099.
Setting iTunes Restrictions for Windows
On Windows, you control access by setting registry values inside one of the following
registry keys:
On Windows XP and 32-bit Windows Vista:
 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Apple Computer, Inc.\iTunes\[SID]\Parental
Controls\
 HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Apple Computer, Inc.\iTunes\Parental Controls
On 64-bit Windows Vista:
 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Apple Computer,
Inc.\iTunes\[SID]\Parental Controls\
 HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wow6432Node\Apple Computer,
Inc.\iTunes\Parental Controls
For information about the iTunes registry values, see the Apple Support article at

Support article at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/136393.
Updating iTunes and iPhone OS Manually
If you turn off automated and user-initiated software update checking in iTunes,
you’ll need to distribute software updates to users for manual installation.
To update iTunes, see the installation and deployment steps described earlier in this
document. It’s the same process you followed for distributing iTunes to your users.
