com.apple.dock.extra keeps crashing

I can't work because the crash notification keeps coming up. I just updated itunes i don't know if that is related to this popping up every other minute.

It's a bug in the iTunesDockTile.docktileplugin from a recent update of iTunes.


I disabled the plugin and the crashes stopped.


In terminal:


sudo cp -rp "/Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/PlugIns" "/Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/PlugIns.bak"

sudo rm -rf "/Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/PlugIns/iTunesDockTile.docktileplugin"


Hope this helps.
