Apple Updates iTunes to Version 11.0.1 to Fix iTunes Match, AirPlay Bugs, Speed Up Searching

[coolspot18]

iTunes/iPhoto/etc should all have NAS support. I really want to store my library on a remote drive instead of on my computer.

do not care about iTunes ... very frustrating.

Why are you in here then?, this was fixed Monday with a firmware update. http://www.macrumors.com/2012/12/10/...rnal-displays/

Nothing is stopping you from putting your iTunes library on a NAS; just copy the library over there and select it by holding down option when you start iTunes and navigating to the library.

The only caveat is that only one machine can use the library at a time, and that it's not cross-platform (you can't create a library on Windows, then open it up on a Mac)

Technically it's not supported... and I really don't want to corrupt my iTunes library

Either press Enter after starting your search or turn off Search Entire Library.

This works fine. I had my library on a NAS for years with nary a hiccup - in fact it was quite a bit faster than the USB drive that it now lives on.

To switch the attribute, I had to switch the itunes view to list to see the movie in iTunes. Once I saw the movie I opened its properties found the tab with "Home Video" in a drop down menu.

Ah, interesting. I believe I experienced this and will have to check it. Oddly, I believe they still listed fine on the AppleTV. Thanks for the heads up!

EDIT: Yep, appears I need to fix all my movies

Agree with you, I hope they bring this back. And when you click on the different seasons it shows the correct cover art

We miss the 'progress bar' in the mini player; wish they would put that back!

Love the new iTunes but please bring back the iTunes DJ

Boo!

check under home movies tab.

Who really cares if someone likes it or not?

If you like it, groovy. if not? far out. I think the real issue is elitism, on the part of users saying "why would you miss it, it sucks" or "I love it, Apple needs to put it back" and of course for apple not giving users a choice.... again.

I would use Android if it didn't feel like something that someone made in their backyard.

Not shocked but it's good they fixed any problems quickly, now I wonder which version of iTunes is coming on the new iMac's shipping now?

This is pretty much my main beef with it11.

I would also like to be able to add songs with the tried and true drag and drop method. it11 doesn't seem to allow that. Maybe it's slower but it still does?

The key things I'd like to see return to 11:

1. song info/progress bar in the mini player.

2. use of same button to max/min the window/player

3. drag and drop to add songs

4. return radio to the sidebar (not sure why it's on top now?)

5. return default search function which provides song/track info, instead of cover art and a list of songs.

The changes in 11 seem counter-intuitive and are quite perplexing.

it is not; it fixed only the flickering issue. there is a major issue with color.

see the macrumors forum under mac mini and apple discussions forum.

Yeah I really wish there was a solution to this as many people would love to have all their music and such in one location for the whole family to access.

Yes I know you can share your library but that relies on you computer being on all the time.

Good to see, we're not the only ones who miss some features from 10.7, especially ##s 1, 2 and 4 on your list.

Welcome back artwork on my iPhone, my life is now complete.

[chasemac]

I miss the volume slider in mini player big time. Miss time transport too. Hey, I even miss the graphic EQ display option in mini player. Wish Apple would add these back.

[joshsand66]

Unfortunately does not fix the problem with new movies added.
They do not show up in UNWATCHED tab at all. End up in HOME MOVIES tab, Previous ver used to show them in UNWATCHED, where they should be.

[Ichabod.]

Great, It looks like they fixed the auto-complete kotoeri bug in iTunes. (kana input specifically)

(Whenever typing an artist/album/genre/etc. itunes would autocomplete the name based on the first letter typed, and wouldn't wait for you to finish the character/etc.)

Maybe it doesn't get noticed enough for them to mention it in the notes, but it's nice to see they fixed it so quickly.

Apple should implement also the RESUME playback. Just listen a long playlist. Quit iTunes or reboot the Mac. Open iTunes again and it resumes playback from the last played song.

This was the single-most annoying issue I had with the v11 upgrade. I have a lot of music on my 32GB 4S and bringing back the ability to search the device has made me *almost* like v11 now

[luigi408]

What about Home Sharing issues? I cannot connect to Home Sharing since iTunes 11 at all. Many people already reported that on the Apple Boards.

Good update
