Seems to be okay for me. Purchased material and otherwise.

I'm still trying to figure out why iTunes won't allow TV Show/Movie tag editing...

Purchased material is no problem, it's the ones I encoded using Handbrake and Visualhub. All of a sudden, I'm getting this 'Video format is not recognized', even though I played these movies without any glitch on my AppleTV using iTunes 8.2.1.
 
Apparently not true. There is a 64 bit vers of iTunes for Windows according to many users on the Apple support pages, but not for MAC!?! WTF!?!? Not all windows vers are 64 bit. Also, if this is the reason, why then is there a 64 bit (for snow leopard) of every app built into the OS, Mail, Preview, iPhoto, etc etc etc and also a 32 bit vers for OS 10.5 and earlier?

because anyone who actually *needs* 64-bit computing today is not likely running iTunes... Can you explain why you feel 64-bit iTunes is so important?
The reason there is a Windows 64-bit version is because...drumrooolll please... Windows 64-bit can only run 64-bit code!!! Fortunately, (Snow)/Leopard has no restrictions and plebe consumers like us can just run our apps, 32 or 64-bit side by side without rebooting, worrying about drivers, legacy software etc etc etc.
64-bit iTunes would offer absolutely no improvement; or do you actually have 32 GB of RAM in this Mac on which you run iTunes?
 
Okay, where the **** is the arrow that appears next to the currently playing song in list view?? I have a huge list and it's this is just inconveinient to have to search for the currently playing track.

AND


I could have swore that the grid view used to be adjustable in size. Maybe i'm confused, but I could have sworn that I used to be able to make the albums in gride view bigger or smaller. Maybe i'm missing it....
 
Actually, I can drag them when they're in a listing order (like the Top Chart column on the Home page), but not within an album page (like on http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?i=318393999&id=318390146&s=143455)

Am I going crazy with this?

Ok, It seems that you can now "Add to (never heard of) Wish List" by clicking the triangle on the "Buy" button next to the song...
But that list is not on my computer and I just can't export it...

done

Thank you. I appreciate the response and time to do so.

However, what I am referring to had NO genre column.

I don't want to see genre- its not up to them to decide what a certain artist genre is- nor make me have to go through all of my 2751 albums and change what some 'genius' thinks a particular artist is. There was a time, in preferences, that you could select a "do not show genre" (or something like that) to remove the column. Didn't become something you had no choice to control until- shocker- the genius bar nonsense appeared.

Nothing but steps backwards (and more ways to access your personal library- even now creeping onto my iPhone apps?! C'mon Apple. Sorry- wrong thread lol)

Anyone have iTunes 7 out there?
 
Gah! Why did they use a different color scheme? The silver shade of gray curses with the standard GUI elements of OSX!

I've always hated applications that don't follow a standard look and feel that matches the operating system GUI. I thought Apple was striving for more uniformity, but it's going in the opposite direction! Even Windows is more consistent!

I had that message on numerous occasions with itunes 8. Try resetting and resyncing everything. That usually fixes it.
 
Two words to describe the new UI --> "Pale" and "Dirty".

It's pretty sad that not only does the OS seem to get a new interface (while still keeping elements of all the previous interfaces) with each release, but now each new friggin app update gets it's own unique interface.

For God sakes, come out with an OS that has a CONSISTENT interface!
 
So...after updating to iTunes 9.0, it won't sync about 10% of my AppleTV movies that were working perfectly under iTunes 8.2.

Thanks again, Apple for f.cking up my movie collection, just like you did with the AppleTV 2.3-update.

Lame-ass wankers.

Same! Has happened twice before to me. 80gb or more of various movies, TV shows, music- all gone - some remaining- on all 3 of my AppleTV's.
 
iTunes 9 has UK language localisation! "Movies" become "Films", "Fall" becomes "Autumn".

Wow, Apple do give a toss about us Limeys after all. Seeing as though they've been shafting us on pricing we've paid for it after all ;)
 
Anyone from the UK having the same issue as me? iTunes Store UK doesn't actually look like the images shown at the keynote and on the website.

The top bar of the iTunes store is there (home, music, videos etc) but the actual store interface is the same as before and doesn't have the new look.

And I see the effectively the iTunes 8 store

iTunes generally foreshadowed UI changes. I think this may be the new darker gray that will follow across the rest of the OS. I like it but the OS ,as a whole, has a UI that is fractured. Every app has it's own UI and seems to follow a different set of guidelines.
 
So is there a way to delete Genius Mixes you don't like?

For example, I do not want a Genius Mix of my classical music -- aack!
 
Is home sharing what I think it is??? I've been dying for this (I think).

With this, my wife and I can each use our own notebooks to buy songs but still be able to sync with the Mini... Right? I've been copying purchases manually for a while now...

If people didn't want to run the latest technologies, such as running a kernel in 64 bit, then we'd still be typing this message on a 486DX2, with 66 Mhz.

People who claim you don't need more than 32-bit, remind me of that guy that said "640K ought to be enough for anybody".
 
One annoyance

iTunes 9 is no big deal...soruced up shopping etc but for myself the main function of iTunes is not the store, it's playing music and keeping track.

One annoyance...you can no longer minimize iTunes into a small thing by clicking on the green button upper left...Apple should restore that function.
