And me.

So, guys, are we to assume that Fluke no longer works with iTunes?

Is anyone working on it?

I see there have been no updates to Fluke since September 2009.

I noticed there have been alternatives such as Twisted.

Strike that.

This worked a teat for me:

1. I downloaded the 0.2.5 update again.
2. I ran the Uninstall Fluke.tool that came with the download (don't know if 
this step is necessary).
3. I ran the install pkg again.

Hey presto! It now works with iTunes.

Will hang onto the package now.  I have a sneaky feeling this might become 
necessary every time iTunes updates itself.

same thing happened over here!!!! Close Itunes before the initial install then 
it'll work fine.

No joy for me on 10.7.1 (Lion) and 10.4.1 iTunes. I had iTunes closed and 
restarted the machine after the uninstall :(

I also thought to reinstall Fluke. I made sure itunes was closed and restarted 
my computer between each step in the process, to no avail.
Now, not only can I not add .flacs to itunes, but those which used to be part 
of my itunes library are not playable, nor do they appear in my library even 
though the files still live in my media/music folder.
Any ideas anyone?

Hi again!
--fixed--
As I was checking my version of itunes for my previous post, I noticed it was 
running in 64 bit mode.
Changing it to run in 32 bit mode (right click on application, get info, check 
32-bit mode box) fixed the problem.
I then noticed this was the fix worked with most people on issue 45 in this 
forum.
NOTE: for some reason, this fix didn't work the first time I ran itunes in 
32-bit mode. But did subsequently.
Hope that helps.

It worked for me too (after second attempt - just restarted iTunes and it 
worked).

Running itunes in 32 bit and not 64 bit fixed this issue for me.

I have this problem with iTunes 10.6.1 that worked fine previously in OS X Lion 
10.7.4 with the exact same tracks that now do not work in OS X 10.6.8.

I see this in the console:

OK, this issue disappeared with a reinstallation. Now I have another error to 
look into. It may be unrelated to this particular error though.
