I appreciate the help. I guess it’s not a good idea to install Wine on Elementary OS with a Windows version of iTunes. It basically corrupted the whole computer and I ended up having to start from scratch. If the folks at Elementary say not to install something don’t! Commented Jan 31, 2022 at 4:53
