So...
I'm playing the Magic World pack, and having a good time.
I wanted to add a mod into the back, but when I do so, things break and the game won't start. What could I be doing wrong?

Yep as NosePicker said we need logs. Please post them to pastebin and link them here. You might also want to include the name of which mod you are trying to install.

Hopefully it is a simple ID conflict. If you see in the error log a phrase similar to this: 'BlockID xxx occupied by' Read the below thread from posts 4 - 7 for info on how to change it.

My apologies.
Alright, so to be more specific, I add in the mod as the zip I downloaded it in. When I start up the game, everything seems to go fine, but right before the main screen, it says "Forge mod loader has found a problem with your minecraft installation. The mods and versions listed below could not be found.
iChunUtil : [1.0.0.)

Then it talks about a log, forgemodloader-client-0.log.
I have that, but after the .log there's a .lck. I've never seen .lck, no idea what to do with it.'
In any case, here's the console log.

Make sure you have the 1.4.7 version of Portal Gun. You should not be receiving that message unless you are using the 1.5.x version. Here is a link to the download page for Portal Gun. Be sure to get 1.4.7v5
http://ichun.us/mods/portalgun/download/

The forgemodloader-client-0.log is the log we could have used to help fix this. It is a simple text file and can be opened with notepad. From there copy/paste it into pastebin and linked here. If the above does not fix the issue please post a new console and new forgemodloader-client-0.log to pastebin and link.

Edit: You might also want to update your java version. version 7u10 is a little old, 7u21 is the latest.

I can't speak for anyone else here, but when I want to go custom, what I first do, is download the FTB pack that I want to use as a base.

Then I download a clean install of Minecraft, with the exception that I copy the file from http://assets.minecraft.net/1_4_7/minecraft.jar into the .minecraft/bin directory. After that, I download Forge 6.6.2.534 and copy the files from the zip into minecraft.jar. From there, it's as simple as copying the files from the FTB config folder into the new Minecraft directory, and also copying the mods I want from the FTB mods directory, into a mods directory of the new Minecraft install.

That could work or you could also use MultiMC if you do not already know about it.

Well, I couldn't find the .log, just the .log.lck.
Anyhow, Why was it 1.5.x didn't work? I would think the latest version is the one to use.

...Wait.
*goes to double check*
Oh. So the Magic World pack runs on 1.4.7, so any mod I add has to be that version too.
I see, I see. Well thank you very much for the help!

Exactly. Each update to minecraft means an update to the mods. There is an exception for 1.4.7 in that 1.4.6 mods will usually work with it as well if you cannot find 1.4.7 versions.

Blegh. Ran into another problem.
I tried to add this mod http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/753030-152-thebombzens-mods/#EnchantView and the game crashed on running it. I used the client mod for 1.4.6/7.

Here's the crash report.
