AppleSyncNotifier: The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library QLite3.dll.

I just downloaded and installed the latest iTunes and Safari update. It required a reboot, and after the PC restarted I was greeted with this error message:


AppleSyncNotifier: The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library QLite3.dll.


First time to ever see this one. I can only presume that it is a bug. But any help to correct the problem will be greatly appreciated.


TIA

iOS 4.3.3

Code3 in LA replaced all the Apple software. I'm wondering whether to do this, because as well as getting the SQlite3.dll error, my computer makes a gong-like sound on booting up, which it only makes when there's a problem in booting. My iPhone is connected to computer by USB cable, but it does not show in My Computer as an external drive (or anything else), anymore so I cannot get my pictures directly from it. Nor can I get them from iTunes.


I don't know if the problem is the SQlite3 file or if it is something else. Did you or anyone else have this problem?


thanks, Teresa

No one seems to have noticed my post a page back.


This is because an sqlite3.dll has been placed in the system32 or syswow64 folders.


You need to update your batch script to remove it from the system32 folder (it doesn't need to be there). If someone DOES want it there, they should get the latest sqlite3.dll from http://www.sqlite.org/download.html


I'm not sure where the sqlite3.dll originally came from. There is a small possibility that it was an older version of iTunes that did this, but I think it is more likely that another program that many people here have insalled put the sqlite3.dll in the system32 folder.
