General Information: Missing apostrophe
Apple iTunes is primarily a program to play different types of media, but it is also required if you want to backup an IPod/IPad/IPhone or sync your emails, notes, bookmarks etc over USB with your PC. ITunes comes bundled with multiple sub programs that are all automatically installed when running the regular ITunes setup wizard. However depending on your use case you don't actually need all of them. Therefore this page is divided into two subparts: On the one hand a full blown ITunes installation (excluding Apple Software Update) when you actually want to use ITunes as an audio and video player, podcast streamer, etc and on the other hand a minimal ITunes installation if you only want to use it to sync/backup mobile devices.
ITunes is one of the programs that are more difficult to package, since Apple is using it as a vehicle to distribute their other software. To get rid of at least some of those "extra" programs additional configuration steps are necessary to perform. Please read the instructions carefully, because some things here dont don't work as you would assume. Don't blindly copy and paste the XML code.
