Genius Playlists
So I just tried to activate/enable Genius playlists on iTunes (I had created a new library to just test out how Genius reacts to re-enabling it), and iTunes 9.0.1 still doesn't like having to send music data on 240GB of music
eek, so it can create Genius playlists later. It hangs for quite a bit (as if the application is "Not Responding"), but if you just leave it be for a while, it will pop out of this unresponsive state, and finally work.

If I'm in the house, I have itunes playing constantly and it is almost always in mini player. Fixing the green button was a hugely welcome thing.
You were the only one. The rest of us are mighty happy it's back to working the way we know and love.
I'm with you on this one!
MiniPlayer should have it's own button.
I don't like how the zoom button works differently in every app.
Can somebody please enlighten me, why Software update weighs around 89.8mb and Apple's Website shows 82.95mb for the update?
I'm Running 10.5.8 on a 2.16ghz Core Duo PBook. w/ 2 Gig Ram. I have a small music library (8 gigs and around 1800 songs). This is my work / design computer so i have the Microsoft Office Suite, Entourage, Illustrator, Photoshop, Aperture, etc etc.
Initially it started up, then began to hang when it started the gapless playback work. After a reboot I turned that off,then it hung on setting up the genius feature. After a reboot I turned that off. Then it hung when communicating to the store. I gave up on 9.0. Today I installed 9.0.1 now it simply hangs before it lets me get to trying any feature at all. Force quit won''t work and it takes the whole system down.
A lot of the music I have however was burned from disc a long while back, I'm wondering if it is hanging while trying to access titles it can't find in the iTunes store database..?
I'll let it churn overnight and see what happens.
what about the white?
and the size slider?
gotta fix the app organization... almost as ridiculous as on the iPhone

Ask and you shall receive!
I must have sent 5 feedback forms bitching about the plus button. I love that actually listen and implement feedback. This is my second victory, my first was getting iTunes to not expand every time you docked your iPhone.
Not configurable? How do you select what folder to 'watch' then?
You can create an alias of the watch folder and then put that where ever you want. I don't think you can assign a random folder to be the watch folder.
Just downloaded 9.01 and installed it. iTunes seems to be supercharged compared to 9.0, and much more usable.
What's the problem again?
The problem is with people who have tiny bandwidth limits. However, this is actually a problem with really bad ISPs rather than Apple, so if it helps to increase pressure on said ISPs to drag them kicking and screaming into the 21st century instead of pretending that it's still the '80s, maybe it's a good thing.
Anyway, this update fixed the problems I was having with browsing the app store, so that's sorted then.

It checks twice because sometimes there are other software updates that are only available once earlier ones have been installed.
For instance going from 10.5 to 10.5.8 would show a mass of updates on the first pass, once these were installed another set of updates would appear that can ONLY be installed once 10.5.8 is running. That is why you get two checks. And it has to do it because every machine has a different software collection on it, which Apple need to check to ensure you have all the correct versions.
I still can't download that video, it starts the download for about 10 seconds then stops.
Problem with Home Sharing over Wifi?
Ever since I upgraded to iTunes 9.0.0 and enabled Home Sharing on 2 computers (iMac and Windows notebook), my wifi connection on both computers drops out shortly after iTunes is started and the Home Sharing synching starts.
I have not encountered a problem with my wifi network before and the problem with the dropped wifi connections stops on each computer after I quit iTunes on that computer. I've reset the router a couple of times as well, but the problem persists.
Has anyone else encountered this problem and/or does anyone know whether v9.0.1 fixes this?
Thanks.
