You can't expect the OS manufacture to change their OS to accommodate a single application - would Apple do that with iOS? No way! No other software has these types of issues! Apple needs to patch this crappy iTunes software to fix whatever changed in the OS update.
I'm simply stunned at what a horrible piece of software iTunes is! I love the iPhone and iPad, but iTunes is the WORST!! At this point I'm becoming convinced that Apple is doing this on purpose to get people to buy Mac's because users get frustrated and blame Microsoft. I've been in IT for many years and have dealt with every type of software imaginable. I have never seen such a horrible piece of software in my life! I don't care if Microsoft updates the operating system, Apple needs to have a far better development process that doesn't have these types of issues and essentially bricks my iDevices because everything is so dependent on this crappy application!
I have done every possible (and documented) attempt to fix this issue, and nothing works!!
