Hi Søren,
First of all, if the crashing started when you updated to iTunes 9.1
(the latest version), then this could be related to your navigation
settings under VoiceOver Utility (VO-F8) if you have mouse cursor
follows VoiceOver cursor checked. If you're experiencing crashing and
you were last set to the iTunes Store in your sources table, it could
be due to a connection problem with the iTunes Store being down.
Another way to check whether this is a local settings problem that
might be a problem with your account setup and preferences rather than
with the iTunes app is to start up iTunes in minimal form under a test
account. If it doesn't crash, then there's either a problem file in
your iTunes library or a problem preferences setting.
In any case, you don't have to worry about losing any of your
purchases. If worst came to worst, simply adding the contents of your
Music/iTunes/Mobile Applications folder to even a completely new
iTunes library with the Command-O "Add to Library" shortcut would
restore the applications. Your backups (with information about
favorites in apps, contacts, etc.) are stored in you account under:
Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
So it's certainly possible to recover everything. Incidentally, I
know that it is common under Windows to have to re-install
applications and iTunes, but I've never had to reinstall iTunes, and I
can count on the fingers of one hand the number of applications that
I've had to re-install on a Mac. In those two instances, it was
because the updated package installation changed to a completely
different format that I wasn't confident would simply "update".
Also, if you have Time Machine running, most of this will be backed up
already. Let us know if you need more help.
Best,
Esther

Subject: Itunes won't start
Hi.
Suddently my Itunes has started to crash each time I try to start the
application. When i try to open it, I got the user notification
window,
where I can choose to send a report to Apple, ignore or open the
application
again. How do I fix this issue? Can I remove the preferences without
deleting all the music and stuff I have in my Itunes?
I really hope someone can help because I have to sync my Iphone
with Itunes
to accept a new provider...
Best regards
Søren Jensen
