Genius sidebar gone with update 10.0.1
Does anyone know how to enable the genius sidebar, as it has completely disappeared after the update and replaced by the Ping sidebar, which I don't find any use for?

How do we switch back ?
Just copy a version of iTunes 10.0 back into your application folder and drag it onto your Dock.
(Get the copy from a backup, make a copy of iTunes before updating, or download it directly from Apple:
Mac: http://appldnld.apple.com/iTunes10/061-9183.20100902.X2ndX/iTunes10.dmg
Windows: http://appldnld.apple.com/iTunes10/061-8246.20100901.Zxsew3/iTunesSetup.exe
Windows (64-bit): http://appldnld.apple.com/iTunes10/061-8245.20100901.Pr4rg/iTunes64Setup.exe

Where has the genius sidebar gone in itunes 11?????
apple removed the genius sidebar already in itunes 10. then after many complaints they brought it back. but with itunes 11 it's gone again!!!!! maybe i stop buying from itunes and switch to a more user friendly store... or just listen to music on the radio. hey, apple, you lose customers if you keep on removing good features!!!
Agree......and I spent 7 grand with you all last year...I read a little more. I'm sorry but I don't need help creating playlists. I like the system learning my habits and suggesting songs I migtht like. 90% of my music purchases stem from this functionalilty. Gone now.

Genius sidebar gone in favor of Ping sidebar
The Genius sidebar is gone in favor of the Ping sidebar (as of iTunes 10.0.1).
Unfortunate for me - I loved the Genius sidebar!
Apple, you created the Genius Sidebar. It was great. I discovered a lot of new music because of it - although often not buying directly from the sidebar, but later after some 'cross-clicking'.
So why throw away something good?
Also, I think it would be helpful to make Ping a little bit less intrusive - for all those old hogs like me who are not so much into online-socialising...Eliminating the Genius Sidebar is absolutely nonsensical from a business and customer relations perspective. Genius was becoming a viable option to Pandora and other music sites for identifying new music which was consistent with my musical tastes, and I was making an increasing number of my purchases directly through the sidebar. I will also be deleting the new version of iTunes and attempting to reinstall an earlier version with the Genius sidebar. Failing that, I will return to other sites to acquire new music. Way to go, Apple! You used to be known for your business savvy and customer focus. What happened?

Hello everyone. I'm using Itunes 10.7 (21) for a 64 bits, 13", early 2011 macbookpro. My operating system is Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8.2 (12C60))
I have this issue. The genius sidebar option on my itunes menu appears grayed out. I have genius activated and I can create playlists without any problem. I just would like the use the recommendations feature.
I've been reading many posts regarding this same issue and I've realized that most of them are quite old (2010 and earlier). It seems like nobody is having this problem in 2012!
If anybody has any ideas on why is this happening, I'd really appreciate the help. It's kind of frustrating.
Best regards
Troubled userhi,
I understand your frustration, but you need to know how Genius actually works. It compute playlists and references of all users to build suggestion for you. If the album you are refering is brand new, you will need to wait a little bit in order to allow the Genius database to have suggestions for you.
As for variaty on genius suggestion, I personnally could not complaint when I use it on popular artist. As for more specific ones, the suggestion are effectively narrower. As advertised, Genius database is however improving as more and more people is using it. -
Airplay Icon missing from iTunes 11.0.2.26 (PC) and Genius Sidebar
After upgrading to iTunes 11.0.2.26 my Airplay icon is missing. I've tried the simple fix that reportedly works where you switch to mini player, see the Airplay icon and then it stays when you switch to normal mode.
Firstly the icon does appear but it is grayed out and only pops up a volume control. It does not detect, display, or allow you to select output devices, Second, it is still missing from the normal size window.
This has been tried with and without restarting iTunes as well as reinstalling iTunes. I'd go for a downgrade but then it fails to work with the new iPads at all. I discovered that with my first iPad mini where it required an iTunes upgrade.
Genious Sidebar
I figured Id just downgrade to 10.6.3 to get the genius sidebar back afterwards. WRONG, it will not synch or do anything without the newer versions of the iTunes software. Genius sidebar was the best thing about the software and they kept taking it away, brought it back for a few versions, then took it away again. It was and remains my favorite way to shop for new music. The remaining so called genius functions are just plain lame.
Airplay Icon Missing from Itunes on PC
I can hit my Airplay devices such as Apple TV and Zeppelin Air with iPads, iPods, and iPhones. Just not from the PC Console where is previously enjoyed it the most. So I know the devices are fine. They are all on the same physical wired and wireless network. Even when I put the Zeppelin on the wired LAN there is no Airplay icon in iTunes on the PC.Hi. just want to tell you i had the same problem Ipad--->tv working ok iphone---->tv also working ok pc home sharing not working and airplay icon in itunes 11.0.2.26 is missing. iam running windows 7 64bit
NOW! i can tell you in my case it was nothing to do with your router or antyvirus ip connection.
my pc is auto updating every sunday and icon has disappeared on monday i realized this fact and i have started uninstalling windows updates one by one after each uninstall i have restarted PC each time always run itunes and check if airplay icon is back. AND THER SHE WAS fiew windows updates uninstalled and icon is back in itunes
Now i can not remember what Update it was KB28 ..... something i didnt wright it down at the time i hope this will help someone. -
Like many others, I find Ping in its present form of no value. Fortunately, I read about Apple dumping the Genius sidebar before I installed iTunes 10.0.1, so I'm still on 10.0, with my Genius sidebar intact. I have now just gone to my iTunes account and turned off Ping and was informed that my Ping account will be deleted within 7 days - good! If I have no Ping account, does anyone know if the Genius sidebar will still be available in iTunes 10.0.1? I'd like to install it because of its professed security fixes, but I shall refrain if the Ping sidebar is still there, even if I no longer use Ping.
Whatever about the relative merits of Ping and Genius, a much more significant criticism of 10.0.1 to my mind is that rather than address the many bugs/problems/interface atrocities which iTunes 10 foisted on us, all we got was a reinforcement of this Ping rubbish. Priorities are utterly skew-ways, whether at the highest level of Apple management or within the iTunes Team.

So why is that the Genius sidebar (song suggestion thingy) only works with like 1/10 of my songs? At first I was excited about it, but it only seems to be able to make suggestions if the song came out in last 6 months. Even really well-known older songs don't have any suggestions.
Genius sidebar isn't working for me at all. (It opens, but just shows the atomic symbol logo.) I've tried:
1. Only request suggestions for brand-new songs.
2. Update Genius
3. Turn off Genius; Quit iTunes; Reopen iTunes; Turn on Genius; Update Genius -
How to make a sidebar menu with subsection?
Hello
I've been trying to make a sidebar menu with subsections you can expand and collapse both in muse and edge animate but I just can't. I've search the net for tutorials for two weeks now, it's like such a menu just doesn't exist even tho I've seen them on several sites.
Thos is a picture of how I want it to look:
As a default, you can only see "home" and the two "subject". Then when you click on the first "subject", the two "tutorials" expand down, when you click on the individual "tutorials" the parts of that tutorial expands down. When you click on the buttons that expand subsection again, they collapse.
As I've said I've search for tutorials for weeks, the person I'm making the website with has also search without any luck at all. I've found a tutorial that lets me have 1 button with subsection expanding when mouse is over it, but nothing where there are buttons below the button you expand. I'm starting to thing it's just impossible, but I can't understand how it should be impossible. In case it actually is possible I need to re-thing the way I organise and navigate the entire site.
There is gonna be a whole lot of content on the site, we expect it to grow with up to 100 pages a month, therefor the navigation is obviously very important.
I really hope someone can help me! A link to a tutorial I haven't been able to find or a description on how to do it, thanks!Hi,
I am relatively new to Muse and hardly an expert, but I just did what you are describing. Go to the Widget Library, Compositions > Blank. In the Target, insert a Vertical Menu (also in the Widgets Library). In the Options menu, under Menu Type select All Pages. If that doesn't work the way you want it to, you might have to select the Manual menu option.
Here's a short tutorial on how to use the Compositions Widget:

You might also look at Panels > Accordion. You can insert your menu into the Accordion Target.
Hope this helps.

Where is the genius sidebar in Itunes 11?
Where is the genius sidebar in Itunes 11?
UPDATE:
I need to add somthing to keep some from getting confused:
1. Open the sidebar.
2. Click on "Music" at the top of the list.
3. Click on any Artist in your list
4. Click the Artists button in the top middle.
5. Click "In The Store" on the top right.
Now you get recommendations similar to this artist.
If you are in your music list click the little arrow and "show in itunes store" for recommendations -
Where has the Genius Button Gone in iTunes 11?
I have found out how to start a playlist from a specific song or album etc by right clicking but I want the single press button back, I love Genius I use this more than any other feature, if I hear a song I like I just hit genius easy, Pleas Please Please do not tell me it has been removed.
lol.
Ok man, Im not try'n to hate but whats the difference? Is the one extra click and half second really interfearing with the overall experience?
Besides, the new 'up next' set up is way more user freindly, easier to customize, and flows better than the old set up. With the old set up as soon as you clicked the genius button you got trapped under the genius sidebar heading, in order to adjust the playlist you had to switch back and forth between that and the library heading.
Furthermore, with the implementation of a third party app you could probably set up a custom 'hot key' or 'trigger' to activate the genius feature with a keystroke.
On the otherhand mind you, they found time to make space for the totally useless 'cloud' icon near the top left, so why not at least have the option for a genius button? Im more choked that you cant change the gridview background to 'dark' - or how about the fact that genius, albeit great, never gets better as far as track mixing. -
Is there anyway for me to use Genius sidebar without an account?
I am wondering if there is anyway I can use the Genius sidebar without an itunes store account? I ask this question because I currently live in Hong Kong and itunes store is not availible here.
If it is not possible to use Genius sidebar, is there anyway I can uninstall it from my computer without removing itunes itself?if you have EAS Exchange ActiveSync setup in your phone it automatically disable hotsync for contacts and calendar with palm desktop the only way for you to be able synchronize with palm desktop is to delete the exchange activesync email from your phone.
You may need to contact your IT if they can set up POP account for your email using the same email address.. -

Does anyone know how to get rid of the Ping Sidebar and get back the Genius sidebar in iTunes 10? I just upgraded I can't seem to get rid of the learn more about ping sidebar after recently upgrading.
CheersNo official word if this is the case or not. There was nothing in the release notes saying that the genius sidebar was discontinued.
I for one am really unhappy at this its removal without any consultation or word from apple. I really missed the functionality of the genius sidebar which has led me to buy countless tracks and albums from the store.
restored 10.0 from time machine backup and turned off automatic updates. Now happy am certainly not upgrading until apple can tell me how i can get the genius sidebar back. -
Genius not working with some songs
why does genius not work with some of my songs?
For songs which the genius can't come up with a play list it seems the artist is either too small, too new, or the metadata doesn't match. For example, I had "Cardigans - Love fool" selected and I noticed iTunes had it in my "Songs your missing". I changed it to "The Cardigans - Lovefool", and then selected "Update Genius". After this iTunes removed it from the "Songs your missing", and was able to create a playlist.
The problem is I don't know how many songs iTunes can't figure out. I wish I could create a smart playlist of all the songs which the genius couldn't figure out. The problem isn't so much that I can't get a playlist from a song I selected, but I know if the genius skips a song, then it won't include it with other recommendations. While the genius feature is great, I'd hate to find out in six months that it's been ignoring 75% of my library.
In order to get some of my indy music to play with the genius playlist, I create a smart playlist which includes a genius playlist, and then a list of artists which it can also choose from.
While it's great that the genius can figure out information from the cloud, it could spend more time looking at patterns within your own library. If I create a playlist of New Jersey rock bands, it should be able to figure out that my indy artists are related to the mainstream artists in the same playlist.
The good thing about the Genius is it understands that people listen to multiple genres. I like to listen to classical when I'm studying, and folk music when I'm surfing the web. Last.fm will create a recommended playlist of half classical and half folk. The genius doesn't look at your whole library and come up with something that tries to match all your tastes. As a result of it using genres to cluster music, it doesn't mix holiday music in with your playlists like other recommendation services do. -
Help! Lost Adobe Reader with update attempt!
We had Adobe Reader 8, and we have never had an issue updating to newer versions. When 9 came out our computer went to do the update (it's set to automatically detect updates and start them early in the morning if we don't start them manual by then) but when it was almost done it popped up saying we didn't have the ability to do the update...something along the lines of not being the administrator on the computer. The computer login we were using is the one we always use and is most definately the administrator of the computer.
I figured perhaps there was a glitch or something so I restarted the computer. Well now the old Adobe Reader is gone (the "update" erased the old version to be replaced by the new one) and when I go to restart the install it's telling me it's just a trial and that after 40 days I have pay for it.
I can't just reinstall the original reader because we had it already installed on the computer when we bought it.
Can anyone help?
Meanwhile, anyone here good with fixing MS Office 2003 issues? We can't get the WordArt to print out right. It prints the graphics, but they're just blocks of color or white lettering in blocks of color. And it doesn't matter what Office program it is we use. Regular graphics print out fine, it's just the Word Art.
Thanks in advance for any help!Sorry for omitting that information; yes, this is the installer without AIR and Acrobat.com - I recommend that you use this download (above) if you don't want the additional tools.
The full installer can be downloaded from http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.1/enu/AdbeRdr910_en_US_Std.exe (41MB).
