    Exclamation Cydia Crashing - Guidance Needed!

    Hi All!
    I know you'll probably get many of these 'noob questions' so I'll appologise now if this has been answered before!
    Anyway, I'm new to jailbreaking - only managed to do it yesterday night - and today, after installing a few themes and cydgets, I have found that Cydia will no longer open and closes no sooner than I touch it. Now, being new to the whole process, I have not downloaded any of the 'SSH' programs required to gain access to the system files, more particularly:
    /private/var/lib/apt/lists

    I have, however, attempted to use the 'clearcydialistcache' method which was unsuccessful. It brings up the following error message:
    Couldn’t initiate process: {0} unable to load DLL ‘iTunesMobileDevice.dll’: The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)

    I'd like to regain usage of Cydia without having to go through the recover-resync-rejailbreak method, so any pointers would be useful. If any further information is required to help situate my problem and find a fix, just ask and I'll happily provide what you need.

    Thanks in advance,
    -Joe

    Personally I would just go with a restore, and rejailbreak from a clean slate.

    While you can try using https://sites.google.com/a/iphone-de...edirects=0&d=1 and redsn0w to install that custom bundle to get SSH access, Cydia issues are often very hard to resolve and will most likely require a restore if the following shell commands (as root):

    apt-get remove -f cydia
    apt-get install -f cydia
    reboot

    isn't getting Cydia fixed.
