"Impossible to open Itunes with this version of Mac OS X"
ok... I got the weirdest thing happening: I have no idea what I have done with my powerbook, but I haven't been able to launch Itunes lately... I get the "impossible to open Itunes with this version of MAC OS X" message when I try.

What is that supposed to mean? It worked perfectly until today, I haven't uploaded a new version of Itunes, or any updates for OS X. I tried of course to get rid of itunes, and dowload it again, but it doesn't seem to do any good... Any ideas on what might be happening, or how to solve the problem?

Well, for starters, what version of OS X are you using?

Apple Icon -> About This Mac just says "OS X" and there's the serial number

And I think I have the latest version of Itunes...

Maybe I have a hint on what happened: I dowloaded a homemade mp3 from a frend's server, and when the dowload ends, a "droplet" window opens... I think it's the last thing I did before itunes started malfunctionning. Now I don't know what is Droplet for, or what I did exactly, but maybe it has something to do with the problem...

the serial number, does it resemble something like 10.4.7, or 10.3.5, or 10.0.1?

nope, it's a regular serial, with letters and numbers... I know I have one of the latest version of OS X, but can't remember which one...

There is *no* serial number associated with Mac OS X. Here's an attachment of what About This Mac shows on my machine.

If you click on that Serial number line, the line will change to Version, Build, then Serial number again. The line changes each time you click on it.

If, OTOH, the line does not change (the default should be Version), then click on More Info... - Then when the System Profiler opens, click on Software, and you will see your OS X version there...
And latest version should be 10.4.8 - and iTunes 7.0.1 would be current version for that.

But - what's a droplet doing in an MP3 file?
