It seems that the iTunes package being distributed by Software Update may be missing a library.

Download iTunes from the Apple website instead and install that. It should fix your problem.

[EDIT] The missing library libgnsdk_musicid.1.8.2.dylib is not included in the latest iTunes package, but should already exist on your system in the directory /Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/MacOS.

Yeah, it seems like the installer was botched. I second your suggestion.

Edit: Apparently this is a known bug: http://www.appleinsider.com/articles...xing_them.html

I just downloaded the iTunes update at 9:00 am Boston time and it's working fine.

Just updated and iTunes now does not want to launch. Is the recommendation to install it from the apple site a solution?

[Skibsted]

Thanks for the replies.
I downloaded iTunes from the Apple website and it worked perfectly.

Thanks
