All clear to install iTunes 10.1.1?

[eastercat]

I hadn't seen anything from the devteam or musclenerd that said it was okay to instal iTunes 10.1.1. Did I miss the announcement?
I ask because I'm jb on 4.1 and would like to keep my 1.59 bb.

Don't update your iTunes: http://www.appleinsider.com/article...e_causing_crashes_instead_of_fixing_them.html

Thanks for the warning. When I didn't see anything about issues on the front page of MR, I figured it was another standard itunes update.

That's only a problem when downloading through Software Update. Getting it from the iTunes site causes no issues.

Seconded on not updating. Installed 10.1.1 when it was released and my iTunes will open and then randomly crash when listening to music.

Now get to go through the PITA process of deleting all instances of iTunes and reinstalling.

I'm a mac user. I would've d/l itunes through software update, so the warning was especially relevant.

I'm not saying the warning isn't relevant. I'm just saying that you can get it through other official channels and have zero issues.

I'm a mac user as well. I just tend to avoid Software Update since I could download it from the apple site before SU was even done checking for updates. That thing needs a major overhaul.

Well, I still haven't heard if the devteam or musclenerd gave the all clear, so I'd still wait to update itunes anyway.
Since I don't feel like going to apple's site for updates, I personally find SU useful.

I've updated mine and it syncs fine with my jailbroken iPhone.

It's refreshing to see this question being posted and the OP not being out right harassed by some of the regulars here.

Thanks, mom.

EDIT: modmyi says it's OK to install for jailbroken devices.

With the confirmation from modmyi and ice-cube, I'll d/l from Apple's web site sometime this weekend.

Thanks for the help.
