iTunes 11 won't open on 10.6.8

Post by wonder »

I'm in a bind.

I attempt to open iTunes on my spare computer and it will bounce for half a second then crash. It never opens.

I have tried
• deleting preferences
• deleting iTunes Library
• repairing permissions
• deleting SyncServices folder(s)
• unplugging internet/wifi

Here is my crash report where it tell me thread 0 has crashed.
If anyone can help it'd be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried launching with the opt key held and selecting a valid library?

There are a number of solutions here including downloading the stand alone installer and checking for obsolete 3rd party plugins.
