Where can I find Visualizer files on my Mac?

I downloaded a few visualizers and one of them (Fountain Music) shows this error message:

"Fountain Music"could not load in 64-bit mode.

Try selecting Open in 32-bit mode" in the Finder's info window for iTunes".

However, if I try to switch iTunes to load on 32-bit mode, I get a msg which says that iTunes can only run on 64-bit mode.

I guess I should delete Fountain Music rathen than messing around iTunes itself. I just don't know where the file is located now.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

I found reference to that fountain visualizer in a topic dating from around iTunes 8 so it's not surprising something broke it in the meantime. See the installing visualizers post by JimA at the bottom of:

Yeah, I've seen that ... I also followed a link from that page to the developer's website:

However, I can't find uninstalling instructions.

I also went to Library /iTunes/Plugins folder but it doesn't show anything related to it

Try running the installer again. I use a 12 year old computer and have no desire to install the visualizer, but I did use a hex viewer to check the source code and see a line about "Once iTunes is restarted, it will be fully removed.Fountain Music has been uninstalled." Sometimes uninstallers are part of installer apps.
