Turning on my computer I get an error message saying that the procedure entry point xmlTextReaderName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxml2.dll

This totally worked for me! Thank you thank you THANK YOU! Like the original post had written, I also ignored this warning for a long time. I didn't realize it until now that THIS was connected to my problem with iTunes in which every time I would search for something in the iTunes store, a window would pop up stating, "iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Close program." After closing the program, iTunes would of course shut down. Resolving the issue which I shared with the original poster, also resolved my issue with iTunes. I had no idea the two were related. Even the guy at the Genius Bar at Apple couldn't figure it out. Thank you!!!!

Your very welcome Drummer Girl, it's great to feel your appreciation so warmly. 🙂
