Wow, I updated iTunes on my laptop (Windows Vista) and now I get an error message saying “iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes”. Great. -_-

I got the same error as Josh, but with a Windows XP machine. However the update didn’t even require a restart in my Mac???

Download a full install version and try installing it over your itunes. I did that to fix my color icons issue.

@5: That’s not a bug, that’s intentional.
As for other comments, I never let iTunes update with its automated system anymore. Apple’s automatic updater, in my experience, screws something up at least 30% of the time. It always seems to work better to download the complete package and install with that.

I know the no color icons was intentional - I still consider it a bug. It adds nothing good, takes away something useful = bug.

@8: Remind me to not recommend you teach adjunct CS anywhere;)
Your definition of bug is beyond any comment I could make without getting in trouble, suffice it to say if you can consider the no color icons a bug, you can consider an elephant a plant.

@9: My “elephant” is a plant, a gigantic ficus in the dining room that my wife inherited from a deceased relative. I don’t dare ask to get rid of this monstrosity, hence the “elephant” in the room.

There is a new button on the music videos in my library called “My Computer”. Does anyone know what that is about?
