I would keep the new account as you never know when you're going to need it. As for what happened, I have no idea. I did the iTunes update myself, as probably did a million other users, with no harm. I'm really at a loss to explain what could have happened. This kind of update usually doesn't need to change anything in the system, just the iTunes application itself, so I can't see anything that could have screwed up your account so badly. -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] finger-pointing syndrome n.: All-too-frequent result of bugs, esp. in new or experimental configurations.
