Apple this week released the 10.1.1 update for iTunes which was designed to fix crashing issues, and in an ironic twist, some users report they’re unable to open iTunes after applying the update, Apple Insider reports.
Of course, some of you are thinking Apple just went and did you a favor by bricking iTunes, but for those who actually use the program, you may want to avoid the 10.1.1 patch until things get sorted out (in the meantime, check out our recently posted “15 Ways to Make iTunes Rock” article).
Alternately, Apple Insider says several users have been able to resolve the problem by downloading iTunes directly from Apple rather than using the built-in Software Update.
