itunes 10.6.1.7 crashes downloading podcasts- win7 64bit
Curiously the podcasts will download one by one using manual update but if you referesh the list of podcasts it crashes. This seems like a simple programming error. Doesn't Apple test their software?
The crashes aren't really related to syncs - it is the downloading part that seems the villain.
I suspect it is a security "feature" that involves checking licenses. I've also tried all the routines of de-install, install, running as administrator, etc. Nothing works.
Since I have about 100 news podcasts, the prospects of having to update them all manually one-by-one every day really makes iTunes useless.
This is the 3rd version of itunes that is buggy. The old one used to generate a msvcr80.dll error. This bug doesn't even create an error number.
I refuse to pay for a support call because there is nothing wrong on the hardware side. (my ipod is old but crashes occur whether or not the ipod is connected to the pc.).
