ARRRRRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!111!!!!

*tears out her hair*

You know, there are time when I hate technology. This is one of those times.

I was trying to update my iTunes to a newer version. It downloaded fine. It installed fine. But I got hung up when it tried to install Quicktime (which is apparently something you need for iTunes to work). So I told it to stop. Bad idea. Now, even though it says iTunes has been installed, I can't open it since Quicktime never fully installed. So I figure, "Fine. I'll just uninstall iTunes so I can reinstall everything." Wrong. I can't even uninstall it to try to reinstall it. I tried just installing Quicktime. No go. Apparently, my "InstallShield Wizard" has decided to crap out on me.

Now, before you Windows haters start pointing fingers, it's always worked fine for me before. It's probably due to something I've done. Now, I have no idea how to fix it and no one I can call. I only hope I haven't screwed the pooch, so to speak.

What started all of this, you may ask? A meme. Yes, you read that right. A music meme. I did it once before when I had fewer songs and I could physically count to the requested number. Now, I have more songs and I really don't want to hand count 100-odd songs. So I thought if I downloaded the newest version of iTunes, I could put numbers beside the songs so I know which one's which. I didn't know how to do that in the other version (or even if it would let me). Now, I have no music at all. *rawr*

So I am not a happy camper. I've potentially screwed myself out of my music and who knows what else. So Snap is not a happy camper at this moment.

Watch it be something so mind numbingly simple that I simply overlooked. Good job, Snap. Good job.

technology sucks
