I guess I'm just really excited for the 7th when they announce the new hardware....
All these other updates haven't really been exciting me haha

iTunes Update = ipod update
Everyone chatting about the "Mac-related" townhall meeting next week and prognosticating there will be no i-pod update keep overlooking one key Jobs-esque phrase:
"Oh . . . . one more thing."
I wager the new i-pod comes out next week, touchscreen and all. If the i-tunes update and the rumors about another touchscreen apple device being developed in tandem with the i-phone doesn't spell out imminent "i-pod update", then I don't know what else does.
I feel like a drug addict with these software/hardware updates: come on Steve, give me one more fix. Ugh.

Actually if you use process explorer you will see that it is using far more ram than 55MB.
Seeing that all the MR guinea pigs already went, and there are no hitches to write home about, here goes
Haha, that old argument again. Whats to say there wont be a 7.3.10? Or even a 7.3.11? We never learn, do we?

Weird, glad somebody quoted you before your post got edited. I've never been attacked before like that, how quaint.
Now try opening coverflow, then scrolling from the 1st album to the last one, the take a look at how much RAM gets burnt. I can get mine up to over 1.5G.
Ah, beat me to it (by a long way too)
Almost forgot, thats standard with every update
ROFLMAO
By chance have you moved iTunes out of the main /Applications path into a sub-folder? If so, Apple Software Update will not find it. (I have the same problem myself.)
Also for those who may be interested, 7.3.2 does -not- fix the problem with Smart Playlists on the iPhone listing the wrong songs if you do a "recently added", "recently played", "most played" type of list.
Oh well...maybe in 7.3.3...
I've been kind of thinking this to myself recently. I couldn't really see Apple having an August event then another event in September or October. But one could make the point, "Why not have it in a larger venue than Town Hall?" Then again, the original iPod was debuted at Town Hall...
No matter what, the iMac, fate of the Mini, iPod and Nano MUST be bumped or revised before Christmas, so why not the 7th?
I'm going to be bold and say, August 7th: new iMac, revamped Mini (long live the mini!), iLife/iWork '08
"One more thing...": 6G touchscreen iPod, MAYBE new Nano?
Wow, this was quite off-topic from the iTunes update, but it just kind of came out...
My iTunes 7.3.1.3 says no update found
My iTunes 7.3.1.3 says no update found when I use the iTunes menu to have it go check for updates.
I downloaded the 7.3.2 from the link on the first page of this thread to Apple's website. I selected WinXP w/SP2
The installer says 7.3.2.6. Now installed, iTunes says 7.3.2.6 - unsure if the other CD Driver, CD Driver DLL or AppleMobileDevice versions changed.
I have WinXP, iPodVideo30, and iPhone 1.0.1 (1C25). And I installed iTunes in it's default folder.
Just putting the info out there for what it's worth.
PS: iTunes installer told me to shut down Outlook or bad things may happen, I did, as well as a C++ development package I was running, IE pointed to this thread, several file explorer windows, etc.
The update did take a (scary) long time as it removed files, shut down services, added files, moved files, restarted services, added more files, shut down services, removed some files, started services, registered services, unregistered services, etc, etc, etc Seemed like a very convoluted thing it was doing. By the way, included an update of QuickTime 7 as well. It suggested I reboot my PC at the end, which I did.
But it all worked in the end. iPhone is still syncing as "correctly" as it's always done. No changes I can see at all, either iPhone or iTunes that is.
However, just to mention, after I updated my iPhone to 1.0.1 it syncs everytime to iTunes, before iTunes was having issues seeing the iPhone every now and again.

Oddly enough, mine did that too, but then I ran Apple Software Update and that got it.
I double-checked and 7.3.2.6 is correct.
Perhaps this is to enhance the stability on the hardware to be introduced next Tuesday.... Like a new iPod perhaps? Or a rev'd Apple Hi-Fi? Yeah, I know, the announcement is Mac related...
That's what I was thinking, maybe Apple has released this because we are getting new iPods next tuesday.... or maybe the elusive G5 Powerbook
Good, because I thought I was crazy.
I think I saw something, but not sure how I created it.
Here's what I did...just in the last hour...
Updated iTunes via Apple Site to 7.3.2.6
Synced iPhone, completed successfully.
Then went into iTunes and "looked" through the iPhone settings on iTunes, but I didn't change anything. Did not see the "Apply" button.
Then I navigated away from iTune's iPhone settings by mouse clicking the Library->Music folder.
iTunes wanted me to apply changes to the iPhone.
As I said, I did not change any iPhone settings in iTunes.
Will try to recreate, if I do, then this is a new bug as it had not happend to me before.
Suggestion: run disk utility to repair permissions after updating iTunes.
A few permissions related to iTunes were repaired on my unit.

I've probably got it all wrong, but, new ipod with a camera??
Just realized this could all be referencing the iphone, just under the ipod name, mail on the ipod is a bit far fetched...

Maybe a bug?
OK, maybe I found one.
Description: After iTunes 7.3.2.6 install and sync to iPhone 1.0.1, when Outlook started after these events, some Outlook calendar events popped up from 184 days ago that were past due and previously dismissed, looked to be just my repeating events scheduled like "pay this credit card it's due today" which occurs every 15th of the month forever, "pay the HOA fee" which is set for every 6 months since it's bi-yearly, etc.
May be iPhone and/or iPod related, since I think my iPodVideo30 has a calendar too it may happen on iPods, I did not test my iPod since I don't have it handy?
Here's the scenario.
I have my iPhone here at work, iPod is at home or in my gym bag, so this delt with the iPhone, so not sure if iPod would have same issue.
Installed iTunes 7.3.2.6 - mine is the .6 version. Successful.
iTunes installer had me shut down PC.
Did that. PC rebooted.
Outlook did not come up, since I don't have it do that, so it remained unstarted.
iTunes sub-processes saw my iPhone was docked and connected.
iTunes started up.
iTunes successfully sync'd to iPhone.
iPhone works, iTunes works, all is happy.
Ran IE, checked macrumors and Outlook Express email (where I don't have calendar events).
Then started Outlook regular version to check my corporate email - 2003 SP 2 I think is the version number.
Outlook typically loads and then tells you about any overdue calendar events.
The overdue calendar events included about a dozen seemingly repeating events that I had dismissed long ago, things like repeating events scheduled like "pay this credit card it's due today" etc. These repeating events were scheduled up to about 184 days ago on my system. Since I had previously dismissed them, and even run Outlook earlier in the day before all this, there were no events that came up then, these only came up after iTunes sync'd my events to iPhone.
I dismissed all of them, all seems OK now, but weirdness.
Well, 40 comments and no listing of what this upgrade may have broken...
OK, maybe I found one.

EXACTLY, where's the REAL list of updates & bug fixes -- just like the iPhone update -- Apple is not exactly UP-FRONT, are they?!
iPod 6G
Who really knows what Apple means? We can all guess by until the 7th, by Apple is one of those mischievous companies who don't inform their customers of much until the release day, software updates, etc. When they say strictly Mac-related, isn't their always one of those famous saying by Steve, "By the way, one more thing..."
Last years update on the 6Gen iPod was a joke, admit it. More battery life, brighter display, thats what Apple wasted a YEAR on coming up with? They should invest more time and money into the iPod, without that little sucker, there would be no Apple Inc. The iPod saved the company, so why not help out the people who bought the product who saved your company by making a watered down iPhone as an iPod?

34MB of bug fixes? There's obviously something more in there.
With Apple's updates, they release the whole application again (I'm pretty sure). So It's not 34MB of bug fixes, but the whole application.
Somebody correct me if I am wrong here...
