Xcode 4.1 GM Not Installing (must quit iTunes) on Lion?

I am trying to install Xcode 4.1 GM on my Lion mac but it's not working. When it is almost finished, I get the popup to quit iTunes even though it is already quit. So the only option I have is to quit iTunes helper or alert in activity monitor, then it finishes the install. However then Xcode crashes on launch. Any ideas?

You can go into Activity Monitor and Quit the iTunes helper. That will also get Xcode to finish.

Looks like you've solved the install problem. It's not a solution per se, but setting Xcode to run in 32-bit mode fixed the crashing problem for me.

It's too early to say what the trade-off is (if any), but whatever it is, it's bound to be better than not being able to use it at all.

On a side note: please accept Phil's answer since he gave the correct solution to your original problem. C:
