Maybe whomever created that page meant "temporary work around." this is definitely better than nothing, but is definitely laughable at best if it's not followed up with a patch.
I got halfway through reading all the comments on this thread and forgot what the original story was about (hint: it's not about the proper use and history of the English language). Hopefully this comment will find its way to appear halfway down the comment thread (strategic up/downvoting please), so that it can perform its public service of reminding you, "You are currently reading the 'iTunes font removal solution' comment thread."
I'm not sure I understand how this could happen - it certainly can't be a bug since, I dunno, installing and running the software would show this behavior, and Apple must have some kind of rudimentary QA in place for one of their flagship products.<p>Maybe I'm not understanding Apple's attention to detail and design concept (as usual) in this case.

Well that is terrible, why would that be an official solution rather than reverting back to old font rendering system or removing a specific font that is causing issue.<p>This is like setting a banking website to use a non readable font using css and asking the user to remove that font or disable css to use online banking. (Though Itunes should be less important than banking it is the only example I could think of.. maybe email would be better).
