iTunes crashing opening prefs.
Hi Turly,

I am findin iTunes version 10.5 (141) 64 bit is crashing every time I try to open its prefs. I get a crash report that starts like this:-


Process: iTunes [1429]
Path: /Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/MacOS/iTunes
Identifier: com.apple.iTunes
Version: 10.5 (10.5)
Build Info: iTunes-10509941~1
Code Type: X86-64 (Native)
Parent Process: launchd [165]

PlugIn Path: /Library/PreferencePanes/FinderPop.prefPane/Contents/Resources/finderpop-daemon.app/Contents/Resources/fp-patch-mb-cocoa.bundle/Contents/MacOS/fp-patch-mb-cocoa
PlugIn Identifier: com.finderpop.fp-patch-mb-cocoa
PlugIn Version: 2.4.1 (2.4.1)


Any solution.

Hmm, iTunes prefs works for me on 10.6 and 10.7.

You can inhibit FinderPop from patching iTunes in FinderPop's Exclude tab - just drag the iTunes.app icon into the list. Or turn off FinderPop, start iTunes, and see if the problem persists.

Email me the Crash Report and I'll have a look (turly at finderpop dot com).
All Crash Reports now begin with the pathnames and versions of any loaded plugins - even if the crash was elsewhere.

Still crashes if Finderpop off or excluded, so obviously not to blame.

I didn't realise "all crash reports begin with pathnames and versions of any loaded plugins - even if the crash was elsewhere."

Sorry for blaming Finderpop!!!

I will try and email the crash report, but understand it's not your problem!
