iTunes 7.0.2 Released

[72930]

Ooh, thanks for that. Not sure when I'd use it, but good to know it's there just in case.

No problem, I can't imagine the amount of times that people on this forum have given me useful things like this.

No. The weird thing is, I was already signed in to the store, and went to purchase an album, and this came up. So I signed out, and whenever I go to sign in, it's the first thing that shows up - not even the actual login window. Very odd.

Trashing the prefs seems to have fixed it.

 

[reckless_0001]

Installed it, now it says 'updating iTunes library', never happened before, odd...do you think it could be a response to that 'fair game', which strips DRM?

Probably improving "stability and performance issues" in the playlist.

Despite what seemed like a lag or hiccup when installing it through Software Update, everything seems in order. The initial startup did do "something" to my library, but everything seems peachy keen.

Much Better

Album artwork and video artwork scrolls much better in new update, rather than before it took a little while for artwork to fill in on certain covers as well as videos. I have a library of about 1850 albums and it was frustrating as I scrolled. This is now fixed!

Oh thank goodness.
I hated the lag it took for the covers to "fill in." It almost made using the CoverFlow view pointless.

Hope they fixed this graphics problem: the text on the columns "track number, artist, album etc..." got all ugly when I resized the window sometimes and only quitting iTunes and opening it again fixed it. Hope that's better now, will check that when I get home to my beloved Macbook.

I hope they fix that problem with the songs distorting (unless I'm the only one who has this one). I would start a song it'd sound awful...the old itunes never did that.

Maybe the equalizer is on. It's a shame there's no button or shortcut anymore, but you can find it in the menu. The slider on the very left of the EQ ist the gain, you might want to turn this one down.

Looks like sticky trackpad isseus have been addressed

 

[nadesign]

I installed the update and let it "update" my library. I noticed when I sync-ed my library to take home that all of my audiobooks that I imported myself had been modified by the update... any ideas?

 

[mark151]

but a stupid bug still remains!when i pause a movie in full-screen mode that get out from the full screen mode!what to they need to fix this?

 

[speakerwizard]

Wow

WOW! cover flow works and i mean actually REALLY works!!!!

 

[Warbrain]

This wasn't in my software update when I ran it just a few seconds ago. Weird.

 

[mazola]

The icon is still blue

 

[Warbrain]

The icon isn't going to change for a while. Apparently you don't remember the days when the iTunes was blue before.

 

[nickgoldman]

they put back the feature so you can maximize itunes from the keyboard that was driving me mad command+option+1
in itunes 6 it used to just be command +1

How to do you get the covers? Any software available?

Thanks.

 

[iMikeT]

I hope Apple has fixed all the bugs that I still have not come across.

As long as your albums are legal, iTunes does it automagically for a lot (new feature in iT 7), and google is a great place to start for the rest.

You just need to create an account at the iTunes store. Then you'll get all the available artwork you need.

If the albums are legal or not makes no difference.

 

[powermac_daddy]

i don't know... all these updates/upgrades... 100MB here, 50MB there.... Why not just finish the program at one shot, test it, then release.

I'm not sure if i like the idea of 100MB here, and 50MB there every other week. I mean yes, I have a huge hard drive. I don't care about file sizes.... but what about those 100GB macbook or macbook pro or Mac mini users?

Whatever, just a thought. My thoughts won't change the world.

90% of you guys would disagree with me. but just kinda lame that i have to click and click. Update and update. Tired of it.

I haven't noticed any issue with p2p downloaded albums and getting album art.

They don't have to be legal , the tag info just has to match whatever sort of database or whatever that Apple has.

BTW I've found that iT7 finds more album art than what they they have in the music store. I thought it was limited to what they had, but it finds art for albums that they don't sell. Maybe I'm the only one who didn't realize this.
