Apple released iTunes 7.7.1, no major change to it but a small update to fix the media playback purchase and iPhone sync tool. But as I did it it caused troubles, itunes could not locate music files. And after many trials, I was able to add files but while I tried to play some music, iTunes could not find a specified file and it just froze. Soon I realized that this is a typical side effect of this update, for many who upgraded to it.
I found a fix to stop the Freeze when connecting an iPod/iPhone If this problem manifests, try deleting the following files from ~~/Library/Preferences/ (your user library preferences folder):
- com.apple.iTunes.eq.plist
- com.apple.iTunesHelper.plist
- com.apple.iTunes.plist
