MacRumors · Sep 27, 2006, 01:01 PM

Apple released the iTunes 7.0.1 update today through the Mac OS X Software Update. The new version is also available at Apple's site.

Quote:

With iTunes 7 and the new iTunes Store, preview and purchase high-quality hit movies plus new and classic games designed exclusively for the Fifth Generation iPod. Flip through your collection by album cover with Cover Flow, protect your iTunes library by backing up to CDs or DVDs, and much more.

iTunes 7.0.1 addresses stability and performance issues with Cover Flow, CD importing, iPod syncing, and more.

Some users have had problems with the 7.0 update. This update presumably addresses these issues.

And via Software Update.

dizastor · Sep 27, 2006, 01:03 PM

hooray for improved stability.

Eidorian · Sep 27, 2006, 01:04 PM

I'm going to check those performance issues. The only one I could complain of was Cover Flow hogging a lot of RAM.

Squonk · Sep 27, 2006, 01:08 PM

I feel a wave of software updates coming out of Cuppertino!

iTunes, OS X, the .mac email changes. More goodness!!!

spicyapple · Sep 27, 2006, 01:10 PM

That was rather quick, although I haven't had any issue with iTunes 7 on PPC Macs.

Squonk · Sep 27, 2006, 01:11 PM

I just did a "check for updates" on the PC version 7.0.0.70 and it responded with that I am up to date. Not that I really care about keeping my "at work" PC up to date, I store all my music at home on the PowerBook anyway...

telecomm · Sep 27, 2006, 01:13 PM

Why is it that iTunes 7 always messes up permissions? It seems like getting that right should be a simple fix.

BWhaler · Sep 27, 2006, 01:15 PM

Fast work by Apple.

I really like iTunes 7, save the scroll bar. Hopefully this nails down all of the quality issues.

mazola · Sep 27, 2006, 01:17 PM

Does this update fix that?

Eraserhead · Sep 27, 2006, 01:17 PM

7.0.1 isn't yet on software update but is on their site, downloading now.

b.k.jackson · Sep 27, 2006, 01:18 PM

The only bug that I noticed was that the "Cover Flow" on my Macbook would have degraded graphics in the scrollbar after using them - this fixed that right up.

oooh that was quick

Smooth with no restart required.

...a windoze app. They need to fix the butt-ugliness along with the functionality.

Can you elaborate? What is it "messing up?"

I'll have to wait until I go home today to see if it corrects my issues with memory usage, authorization/deauthorization of computers, and playback problems. I can only hope...

dhc · Sep 27, 2006, 01:25 PM

Hope this returns the option to leave my Shuffle in the source list after ejecting it.

mi5moav · Sep 27, 2006, 01:25 PM

It's the little things that matter most. A child's first cry, a red barn on a rolling green pasture, a babbling brook, the wind whistling over the rotting shingles of a maximum security prison, a bullet piercing the silent night, getting rid of that putrid green icon that has been sitting in my dock for over a year. Those are the things you remember. Just imagine when the ipod first came out if Apple used black earbuds instead of white?... It just wouldn't be the same and podcast probably wouldn't even be a word yet.

ghall · Sep 27, 2006, 01:27 PM

Yay! It's finally here. It seemed like an eternity for this thing to come out. When this update cae out I thought Christmas had come early. It's downloading right now.

Nope, just checked. I was hoping for this feature to reappear too.
