iTunes 6.0 Forum

Hi,
I managed to make iTunes 6.0.2 install on Wine 0.9.6. There really wasn't much to it, except that if one simply runs the combined Quicktime/iTunes installer, the installation of Quicktime fails (it gets int an infinite loop.) However, if Quicktime 7 standalone is installed first, then iTunes, iTunes doesn't try to install Quicktime, and the installation works. However, once it is installed it complains about needed a missing DLL - USERENV.DLL. If this is put into wine's windows/system directory from a real Windholes 2000 machine, then iTunes gives the following error ans exits. "Quicktime version 7.0d0 is installed, iTunes requires QuickTime version 7.0.3 or later. Please reinstall iTunes." I suspect that something is not returning the version of Quicktime correctly, both because of the scrambled version number in the error message and because Wine spits out "fixme:ver:RtlVerifyVersionInfo (0x4083ebfc,3,9): Not all cases correctly implemented yet" on the console when the error message pops up. However, the good news is that we ARE making progress!

That is tantalizingly close. I need itunes 6 because I use itunes in windows (gasp) sometimes and now it won't let me revert back to 4.9... ever. Keep up the good work.

Hi,
Tried it again with Wine 0.9.7, but there was no improvement. Waiting for wine 0.9.8 to try it again...

Thanks,
