I'm on 10.6.1 and iTunes 9.
ITunes worked well for awhile, then I switched to auto-organization (I don't know if that had something to do with it or if it was just a coincidence, but the problems started after I upgraded to iTunes Media Organization)
When I try to launch iTunes, each time it now says "Checking iTunes Library". This takes an inordinately long time, and afterwards, after the pop-up disappears, the main iTunes window never comes up. Then I have to force quit iTunes, because the process is still running, just "Not Responding".
I have tried restarting, repairing permissions, re-installing iTunes (only running the installer again, over the existing installation), and disabling my other applications that interact with iTunes (Coversutra and Awaken).
On the 25-30 times that I have tried relaunching iTunes, it has actually launched about 3 times (main window coming up, songs able to be played, etc.). Even on the rare time it has been successful, it still begins with a very long "Checking iTunes Library" process first.
Even if that check is successful and I think the problem is behind me, a subsequent try to launch the app STILL has the "Checking..." pop-up and needs to be force quit.
The only other time I can remember seeing "Checking iTunes Library" is when upgrading versions, so I'm not sure what else I can try to try and fix the problem. Any suggestions?
