FOR DOG’S SAKE DON’T DO IT!
I just got iTunes 9 & it ruins everything! There’s something majorly wrong with it. It deauthorizes your computer, makes you resync you iPod with ALL your music, & it will undo all the changes you make. That’s not even half of the problems it has, but I’m just telling you DON’T DOWNLOAD ITUNES 9 UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR ENTIRE IPOD TO BE SCREWED UP!!!!!

Hi,

Found the problem. Well not exactly, found a solution to go around the problem.
For some reason, the program msiexec.exe did not execute the msi.
So what I did now, going to the temp dir. where the setup extracted the msi files. There were like 8 different msi files.
I doubleclicked the iTunes.msi, because this was the start msi that the msiexec.exe should have executed.
The setup ran and installed the new iTunes 9.
Only thing was that after the installation, those temp. files (msi’s) were not deleted. I deleted the whole temp file by hand.
And problem solved.

Regards,

Ron

I downloaded the iTunesSetup.exe to install the iTunes 9. Just as suggested when opening iTunes.
Then I execute it… the Windows installer is showing for a short time and then disappears.
And nohting seems to happen.
If I look with the ProcessExplorer from SysInternals, I can see that iTunesSetup.exe calls the msiexec.exe but does not do anything.
If I look at the log file (iTunesSetupECC.log in the temp dir. of Local Settings), I can see the last command is: Executing: “C:\WINDOWS\system32\msiexec.exe” /i “C:\DOCUME~1\Rony\LOCALS~1\Temp\IXP247.TMP\iTunes.msi” and that’s it. I know it slows down my computer.
Does anyone have an idea what is wrong ?

I’m running a Windows XP, (build 2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.090804-1435: service pack 3).
My QuickTime player version: 7.55.90.70

Thanks in advance

Since iTunes 9 is playing well with jb iPhones my iPhone is acting sluggish so I want to restore can anyone confirm that if I restore my phone to 3.0.1 will it all go gravy with iTunes 9?

No way upgating to 3.1 yet… At least for us iphone users. Well iphone 3G users and 3Gs….

Perhaps we shall wait little bit more, at least my Iphone doesn’t have any relationship with AT & T Contract and Data plan, and neither Apple. So no insurance , I will not try to Jaibreak with an unoficial release of rsnw or qpwn… Still my Iphone 3g its on 3.0.1 JB and working as great as ever :) + GoPhone Card from AT&T , it cannot be any better :)

I shall download itunes 9 and update, but no 3.1 if no official JB comes yet!
Thanks for the awesome news :)

[...] released the iTunes 9 download along with the iPhone 3.1 update, but guess what? iTunes 9 blocks the Palm Pre from syncing. This [...]

I don’t use anything fancy, though. Beyond the basic tweaks, I don’t have the 5-icon springboard or the sort-icons-into-folders hack.
