Tutorial 4 - Upgrading Broken iTunes
Problem: iTunes breaks when upgrading or installing due to a previous version not uninstalling correctly.
Solution: Download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility located at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301.
You'll have to install the tool and remove the old iTunes AND Quicktime installs with the tool, THEN install the latest iTunes.
Not everyone may believe or even accept this radical idea, but iTunes on the PC is very buggy and a really clumsy app, something totally unacceptable for a video/photo/audio program.
Anyway, I've resisted upgrading iTunes for fear I will be forced to use iTunes for virtually every listening or viewing task AND
Ironically, it's Microsoft who provides the tool to make an iTunes upgrade possible.
Stupid Apple
