I'm... stressed.

Went to the Apple.com site, because I wanted to see about the Nano, since [livejournal.com profile] triskymccloy was going to get one. Couldn't view the video, because I needed to upgrade QuickTime.

But I was afraid it would mess up iTunes, because I had to DL them both. So I went to iTunes, and updated through there.

I had to close iTunes for it to update. So I did.

Then I restarted my computer.

Went back to the Apple site - still sound only, no video.

Went to open iTunes - which now won't open, because it says it needs QuickTime 7.0, but only has 6.5 installed.

*headdesk* *headdesk*

Trying the "Repair iTunes" option now.

*headdesk*

*whimper*

Anyone know the difference between iTunes 4 & iTunes 5? Because I managed to get it to repair itself, but it say's it's "updating my music library" - which worries me.

Should it?

*chews nails*

Is there a difference? I updated my iTunes with the new update but nothing seems to have changed with it on my computer.

I think it was because somehow it tried to update with 2 windows each time. The first time, I exited out of the second window (after hitting retry twice). The second time, I hit retry until it went.

And now it works.

I haven't updated my iPod for the past two updates. The last one I did do, royally fucked up my iTunes AND iPod for months. So I am scared of the updates!

It's okay. It's probably just making sure it has all your sound files!

I don't know how I mange to luck out but I have *crosses fingers* so far never had a problem with my 3gne iPod and never *crosses fingers again* never had a problem with iTune updates. IMO the difference is that iTunes 5 seems to load faster & I think additional support has been built in because they are going to start selling videos soon. They have been offering them as bonus tracks but now they'll be regular downloads.
