It looks like the intel Macs aren't having the troubles of not having iTunes boot after installation.

My only way of getting iTunes to run on my iMac G5 again after installing this one was to take the last version I had off of another partition on my computer and to physically replace the App and then it's reciepts from my Library. I also had to turn off the iTunes helper app from my login items to replace the App from one drive to another.

I highly suggest for all non intel users to backup thier copy of iTunes before installing this. I'm sure the next version will work better for us.

This is a first for this Apple Computer user of 15 years... everything has always worked well for me right out of the gate. I don't know what's up here...

OSX 10.4.10

It works fine on my iMac G5. I just used Software Update and launched iTunes afterwards and didn't experience any problems.

Same thing here, and I'm on an intel iMac.... so there's certainly another issue. Most likely a conflict with some piece of software, or plugin.

The last version had issues for me due to the use of the GUI changes installed in UNO, which were solved by it's removal.

No doubt, something else is broken within iTunes that is incompatible with whatever configuration we have, given the fact it works perfectly for some users. As with you, downgrading to 7.2 was my only option and it is working fine.

Never before have I had this with a piece of Apple software.

Thanks for the info... Yeah, if I had nothing but Apple apps it might work. I also had troubles with the Beta that was released a week ago... GUI troubles like you had. Funny.
