I downloaded and installed 7.3, and when ever I click it on the dock, the little black bar appears for a second and then disappears. I have tried uninstalling and reinsatlling, but it didn't help. What can I do?

Have you tried the basics? Can you open it from another user account? Do you have any theme changers installed? How 'bout some iTunes plugins; any of 'em?

I do have a theme installed and a plugin. I can get rid of the theme but what do I do about the plugin?

Well what's the name of the theme and what's the name of the plugin? Hopefully you'll just have to download an updated version from their vendor(s), if they're the source of the problem. Try the new user account first though. 🙂

Thanks, removing the theme and downloading the updated plugin worked. 🙂

The Apple discussion forum users have noted that shapeshifter causes this activity. Add iTunes to your exclude list if you are using it.

I am having a very similar problem, but it stays open in my case. The triangle never goes away and it cannot be force quit. I have to kill the logindaemon to force a logout for it to quit.

Any ideas there? I know it's not the same thing, but I didn't want to start another "won't load" thread.
