iTunes 7 causing headaches for some users
Almost immediately after Apple released iTunes 7 last week, bug reports started surfacing from users on both Mac OS X and Windows. Apple’s discussion boards and iLounge’s forums are both currently host to a number of complaints about the issues—which range from application crashes to audio problems—and the company recently began posting support documents to address some of the bugs. In a related issue, iTunes 7 users are also experiencing problems with getting purchased music working on the iTunes-ready Motorola ROKR and SLVR phones. According to numerous accounts, songs purchased from the iTunes Store will not play on the devices, even though CD-ripped tracks will. Meanwhile, AppleInsider claims that Apple is “well aware of the matter and that it’s toiling feverishly to rectify the issues.” The website claims that Apple hopes to release an update, presumably iTunes 7.0.1, as soon as possible.

I haven’t even been able to open my itunes application on my desk top. So I have no access to my music. All I get is the hourglass, then nothing. I uninstalled twice and downloaded the new itunes (as I was told to do by 3 apple tech people) but nothing. What a waste of money and time. I spent 6 hours yesterday trying to get back my library.

i also have 2 pcs, one at work, and one at home, i also set up itunes on both, but i find that when i buy an app on one of the pcs, it automatically erases the apps bought on the other pc, instead of syncing them all, i find this terribly frustrating, does anyone know how to overcome this???? thankyou all
