Help with iTunes
Thanks for everyone for the previous help with the computer, we fixed the CD-Rom Drive problem woohoo but I can't install iTunes now and I still have no sound.
I get this message when I "finish" installing iTunes.
InstallShield
1628: Failed to Complete Installation

9. It's in Disk Utility
Go to the Utilities folder in Applications and open Disk Utility. Click on the First Aid tab, select your hard drive, and click on Repair Permissions.
