I. Preface

After the upgrade to 10.5, the following errors are always prompted when you open iTunes:

If mobiledevicehelper encounters a problem, disable it. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Another desktop is installed with the Windows XP system, but the new version of iTunes 10.5 is installed. Therefore, it is suspected that the uninstallation is not clean.

2. Fully uninstall iTunes

1. in "Control Panel"-> "add or delete programs", uninstall iTunes and related components: (it is best to follow the order below, if the order of uninstallation is different, or only uninstall some components, you may see various warning information. Restart your computer after uninstalling it)

1. iTunes
2. Quicktime (version 10.5 does not have an independent QuickTime)
3. Apple Software Update
4. Apple mobile device support
5. Bonjour
6. Apple Application support (iTunes 9 or later)

2. Clear user data information (including local media library and other information)

In the "My Documents"-> "My music" directory, delete the "ITunes" directory.

If you want to retain user data and only want to delete related configurations, try to delete only the iTunes library. ITL file under the "ITunes" directory. If the problem cannot be solved, we recommend that you delete the entire directory.
