Field Note #1 @zephyroth 2008-01-15

You should put the log here. It's better to see what is the cause of this crash.

Field Note #2 @timdsmith72 2008-01-15

on irc go to server:
irc.osx86.hu
then join channel #leoamd
There is an iTunes fix in the topic. Works great. I had them put it there. It also fixes iPhoto crash when importing photos and syncing music to your iPhone.
EDIT: Oh...put that file in /System/Library/QuickTime/

Field Note #3 @Puttabong 2008-01-15

Hit: Install Colloquy to get used to IRC. It's very lovely. Perfect IRC Client.

coll oquy.info/

Field Note #4 @Puttabong 2008-01-15

Hehe...
By clicking the Link in the Topic Info, which is located next to iTunes/Ilife fix

Field Note #5 @zephyroth 2008-01-15

hmmm ... I will add this fix in Rev.2 even if iTunes don't crash for me!

Field Note #6 @Puttabong 2008-01-15

iTunes doesn't crash for me either, I use 7.5. I used Marvins AMD Utility once though, when I set up the system.

Field Note #7 @Epke 2008-01-15

Hit,

I just copied the .component to the quicktime folder he asked me to replace it I clicked yes and now everything works perfect!

Field Note #8 @timdsmith72 2008-01-16

That's strange because Album art started working fine also for me after replacing that file.

Field Note #9 @Puttabong 2008-01-17

Hit: do you have QE/CI enabled? otherwise you won't be able to enjoy cover flow!

Field Note #10 @tobi 2008-02-14

tobi

Field Note #11 @timdsmith72 2008-02-15

Well...I did, but the link got removed. Guess that's not allowed. Sorry.
