how about some 64-bit cocoa goodness. That way you can run tasks in the background instead of bringing up a progress bar when I'm importing files preventing me from playing my music or doing anything else until this is done. Geez.

That's not a 32bit vs 64bit problem.
 
Taking 10 seconds to make smart play list to difficult for some people? ;)

It's kind of like the iPhone 4 bumpers. It solves the problem, but you shouldn't have to do it.

Further I don't want to use a playlist as my main music library, I want to use "music" for that.

Sounds like you need to update your computer specs or get a new machine.
 
Mac version is fine. However on my Windows machine it will not let me update apps. Clicking on the Check for Updates in the Apps results in nothing happening. Any one else experience this?

Scratch that, the Mac version does that too. Clicking on Check for Updates results in nothing.

MacBook Pro Late 2008 2.53 GHz 4 GB of RAM, Snow Leopard, does it sound like it shouldn't run iTunes with absolutely no lag? It runs Photoshop just fine, I'm pretty sure iTunes should have no trouble then... Or maybe clicking on buttons that display playlists requires more CPU power than working with a file that has 20 layers in PS...?

Edit: Installed the update and guess what: iTunes is now super fast! See, they listened to me! Apple read my post and did it!

Just installed the iTunes update and the first time I synched my iPhone music, books & video on it got wiped. Minor irritation as I can restore but wondering if anyone else had this glitch?

I didn't have that glitch, but after the update I decided to restart my machine and my date and time was reset back in time to 7 am year 2000.

iTunes is really fast on my machine too!!
 
Of course, the have ONCE AGAIN not fixed an extremely significant bug that is almost 2 years old now. If you use the 128 kbps on-the-fly conversion option, iTunes incorrectly computes how much space that yor music takes up on the device and will NOT let you load any more music, videos or apps. That usually takes away slightly more than one GB on the device and thus makes that last GB useless. This affects the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch (not the Classic).

Ridiculous that this STILL is not FIXED!!! :(

I can't keep up with all these pesky updates.

How come, in nearly three years, I've not once had to take my Range Rover to the dealer to have something updated, but all my Apple stuff needs updating every few weeks? How come they can't get it right the first time?

If it keeps you from filling up your iPhone till the last bit than it's not a bug, it's a feature
 
absolutely.....and

Uh, what? Steve Jobs is Apple. It wouldn't be the company it is today without him.

either one sick xxxk or a very weird response, surprised i'm taking time to respond but it's so freekin' sad this kind of crap shows up on a usually tech relevant site. if jobs doesn't fit this guy's ideals for a ceo, speaks volumes about his level of knowledge about what contribution really means.
 
They say this with every update, yet somehow iTunes' performance has gotten steadily worse over the course of the past three or four major revisions...

I am really amazed how fast it is now, It starts up with two hops in the dock now...
Before it took at least 7-8 sec. I have a lot of stuff in my library so maybe they fixed something there...
 
I would like to see the iTunes icon changed back - I can't tell you how many times I've clicked on the Safari icon instead of iTunes. Anyone else agree?
