Hi Ken

Have you tried repairing permissions. This is something that should always
be done after most updates.
To do this go to Applications/Utilities and open Disk Utility.
There under "First Aid" there will be a button for "Repair Permissions".
Run this and it will go through and "Scroll" some unix info if it finds
anything. Once finished, quit it and see if that works.

If not, then also try deleting the iTunes preferences.
This is located at 
HardDrive/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.apple.itunes.plist.

Drag that to the trash and then try to open iTunes again and see if that
helps.

If that doesn't work, then another thing to see if its a System wide error
or just related to your account is to create another user, log into it and
then see if iTunes has the same problem there as well.
If iTunes opens fine on the second account then you know it's related to
something to do with just your account. Whereas if it does the same thing
under the newly created account then you know it's a system wide error.
In that case iTunes may need re-installed.


Hope that info helps.

Enjoy!

Kind Regards
Daniel
