Era solo un mio sospetto

This was on my desktop, not my laptop.

The BBC said I had to install Real Player to hear Listen Again.  I did, at immense length.

Then I could no longer get up itunes, even when I plugged my ipod into the computer.  Furthermore, when I put on headphones, my computer was continuously playing all the tracks in my music library, and I could not get them to stop in Real Player.

I uninstalled Real Player, and clicked on the itunes icon.  I plugged in the ipod.  I right clicked on a track in the  music library and said "Open as itunes."  Still no good.

How can I get itunes to come up again?

Any ideas?

Possibly try reinstalling it? (can be downloaded from the apple website)

Thanks, inky.  I turned on today, opened itunes and it asked me if I wanted it as a default audio.  I said Yes and we're OK.

Case closed.

As my junior school teacher might have said:

Would you jump off a cliff just because the BBC told you to do it?
