Anyone else want the sidebar back?

The iTunes program used to have a sidebar that made navigation pretty easy for me.  I dislike this move toward a full screen window of icons.  I've known they didn't like the sidebar for some time as they kept hiding it the option to show it, and now they've removed it forever.  I know, I'm whining because I don't want to learn a new way to do things.  I just liked the fact that I got all the information I needed, number of apps to update which phone was plugged in, or even a show that I had yet to watch, all in one place.  The new way just seems cumbersome.  I'll learn it, as I don't have much choice, but I'd rather it have stayed an option.

Go through each of the sources Music, Movies etc. and select Playlists. Use the ellipsis ... to enable sources.  Apps, Tones, and Internet Radio don't have a Playlists button, the others do and remember your selection. Not exactly the same as the old sidebar, but not too different.
If you want to revert to 11.4 for now here are links and roll back instructions.

Uninstall all iTunes/Apple components, restore the pre-upgrade version of your library as described in Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash, then install. If you have trouble uninstalling or reinstalling see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.

  • HT1222 I just wish we had a "backwards" half circle to hit when we need to go back one page.  Does anyone else feel the same way?  How did I find this page anyway?

  • Since updating my Mac to 10.8.4 any external hard disk doesn't show on Finder sidebar (but shows on desktop). Anyone else have the same problem?

    Since updating my Mac to 10.8.4 any external hard disk doesn't show on Finder sidebar (but shows on desktop). Anyone else have the same problem?
    It's annoying because now I can't use Finder sidebar for drag and drop to thumb drive etc.
    Thanks for your thoughts and help!

    Hi Barney-15E,
    Thanks for your reply and suggestions!
    It is set to show on the sidebar in Finder prefs and I tried toggling the setting multiple times but it didn't fix anything.
    I went into Preferences (I'm Administrator) but the strange thing is I don't see com.apple.sidebarlists.plist anywhere in the folder. Not sure what that means..

  • I want the old download display back! Library font is too small, do NOT want the sidebar!

    Just upgraded to 20.0 on XP SP3 - not interested in 'library' display; font is too small to read, do not need/want the sidebar, and need/want the % complete to show as it did in the old download display.
    Also, how do I turn off the distracting and stupid fade-in/fade-out large green arrow on download completion - again not something I'm interested or have any use for.

    I haven't tried it myself, but check out the solution in this thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/955204 Got new version, want to go back to previous download box, the new one has no history and doesn't show speed of download, how do I go back?]
    The green arrow, like other toolbar controls, can be hidden by using the Customize feature. Kick that off by doing either of these:
    * right-click a blank area of the Tab bar > Customize
    * View menu > Toolbars > Customize
    Drag the unwanted arrow into the dialog with the other unused buttons, the click Done.
    Does that fix it?

  • I used th Mountain Lion up to date program to redeem my code yesterday (25th July) but I still haven't got any email or anything. Is anyone else having the same problem?

    Same here...plopped down >$2700 USD on a new Retina MBP a few weeks ago with the promise of a free upgrade to ML when it was released.  Now, I have no doubts that I'll get the upgrade but I'm not crazy about having to wait behind scads of others who are shelling out a mere $20 bucks.
    I was given the same 72 hour speech by Apple Customer Support.  With my Up-To-Date claim reference number in hand, it seems like they would/could provide an instant turn-around to those of us who are excited/eager enough to call in.
    Apple does a lot of things right but people...especially the clientele that gravitate toward Apple products...expect excellence across the board.  It's like a "nearly" perfect date....beautiful night...best table in the restaurant...delicious dinner with a fabulous bottle of wine...your date is smokin' hot in a little black dress.  On the way back to her place, she unbuckles her seatbelt and leans across with a hand towards your leg and then lets a gigantic, tear-demanding **** that makes you want to gag.  The next day somebody asks, "How was your date?"

  • Anyone else watch the press conference and see where apple is coming from?

    I have done my share of complaining, but after watching the press conference I have to say that I am drinking the kool-aid and back on Team-Apple. No other company would have done half of what apple did today....they did their homework and presented a very strong case.
    Anyone else want to drink the kool-aid with me?!

    I have never stopped drinking it. I followed the Macworld Blog on the conference as it was happening and watched it as soon as I got home. I could tell that Steve was a little bothered by the media storm. It was really nice to have the hard data presented. Research before reaction is the best approach and he let the news media have it. Only 22 days, what other company responds that fast!
    Seems like there would have been more media reporters there considering how they have all had something negative to say. But they don't want the facts they just want to use Apple to up their ratings and get more readers and stir it up
    Now to see what minute detail that would shed a bad light on Apple will be presented the next few days. Like the iP4 drops more calls than the 3gs, even though it is less than 1% more.
    Consumer Reports gives the iP4 the highest smartphone rating, then gives the negative antenna review, then says the Bumper solves the issue and then says that they still can't recommend it. CR must now go back and say they can't recommend any smartphone as they all have this antenna issue. Bet they will not do that.
    This phone rocks! It is sleek and fast. It is an amazing piece of hardware. I have not dropped a call yet and the uploads are blazing fast.
    The pictures of the Apple test labs we wonderful. Seemed to really show how much research is done. The CR labs were a joke compared to Apples.
    So, just don't put your hand/finger over the X or get a case and you have the best smartphone known to man.

  • I have been using Firefox for many years now and really like it, now the version 4 is extremely slow, anyone else having the same issue?

    I upgraded to version 4 last week and find it extremely slow compared to the previous version - like so slow that some pages do not even load. I have downloaded and gone back to version 3.6.17 and everything is back to the normal I have known for years with Firefox and it is really fast again...so now I know that there is nothing wrong with my computer and that the supposedly very very fast version 4 is much much slower than the previous version 3.6...so what gives? I'm not keen on going back to the new improved version 4, though I know it will not be supported soon...anyone else having the same issue?

    Having the exact same problem here.
    -Mac OSX
    -3.6 worked great
    -I tried the 4 beta, got rid of it because it was so slow
    -When it upgraded to 4 is VERY slow and freezes often
    -Appears especially slow on sites with flash (ie http://www.bbc.co.uk/news)

  • After the newest update, i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?

    after the newest update ( iso 7) , i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?

    I downloaded and tried EasyFind. It works but it took 30+ seconds to complete finding 3 files that are on One of my Five 25+ Gb partitions of my 130 Gb Seagate Cuda(Really 160 Gb, but my Sawtooth will only recognize 130) I figured that if I ever got a better box, I could reformat it to see the whole 160 Gb. So, as far as I can see, Spotlight's indexing scheme which finds the files instantly is probably preferable. Spot light allows you to rename your files from within it's app window. I've always thought that was pretty powerful. Could my doing so be causing me any issues? As i said it is the inability to Type in the Finder that seemed to be caused from changing file Extentions that were mis-written. Maybe it was a delayed reaction to my renaming files in the Spotlight app? I've done both on occasion.
    As for these .DS_Store files. Apparently you can NOT stop them from being written to any folder that you touch/open/view during a days session. But, as a function of the OS, are the essential to have in their respective folders Forever? I've looked at the .DS_Store terminator app briefly and assume that getting rid of these files won't hurt the regular operation of my OS. They will just be re-written if I ever have to go back to any particular folder again. But, apparently, some have said that if the plan on burning a CD or DVD of their data, they delete the .DS_Store files first and then do the burn.
    I'm thinking from your having suggested this tremination app that you suspect that my having all of these ,DS_Store files could be a situation where any of them could have become corrupted and terminating them regularly should be part of my regular maintenance.
    Does that sound like I'm understanding what I can do?
    TIA

    Since updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1 I'm having compatibility issues with my speakers / docking station and my iTunes wifi sync isn't working. Anyone else having the same problems? Both worked fine until the update...

    Okay. I got it working again by setting it up as a new phone instead of just syncing. Then I backed up. All is good today.

    Ever have a emergency call dropped?

    At places where I live where something like this might be need all they offer is 3G 20 GB plan. Kind of useless. I can get the 4G 20 GB plan at my address, but not the unlimited plan. Doesn't matter since I can get 30 Mbps from Charter with a 250 GB cap for $50 a month anyway. Speaking of  their "unlimited" plan. I love how "unlimited" is actually 50 GB. Talk about false advertising.
    My account is unlimited so why is there an issue if I go over 50GB?
    Per the Millenicom Terms of Service you agreed to upon sign-up, the unlimited service is for personal and family use and is not to be used for commercial purposes or as a public WiFi or broadcast to multi-dwelling units or any other extraordinary circumstance. Usage over 50 gigabytes in one month is not considered personal and family use and will alert our investigative team.
    Really? 50 GB is just 20 minutes of Netflix a day. I can't even remember the last time we used under 50 GB a month. Just 19 days into the month and we are at 67 GB and that's a low month for us.

  • Anyone else have the wifi on their 4S just stop working?

    Anyone else have the wifi on their 4S just stop working?

    Thanks, yes, I have a problem. My Wifi shut down. Phone wont let me turn it back on, even thought I never executed a manuel effort to turn it off. Here's a screen shot. Notice no other text under the toggle advising me to about being near a network? It's like the phone recognizes the "antenna" has stopped working. I did perform a reset and several power off-on's. Can't get it to work. Thanks for feedback!
