How can I turn off genius in iTunes 10.5.3 (3)

How can I turn off Genius in iTunes 10.5.3 under Lion 10.7.3 (other than disconnecting from the internet). It is no longer an option in the Store menu and although I can hide that playlist on the left through parental controls, the atom symbol is still present in the lower right of the window available to generate a list from a selected song. Thank you.

I have the option to turn it off. What version of iTunes are you using? I have the latest iTunes. Have you tried signing out of the store?

How do I turn off genius in iTunes 10.6.1.7? There is no "Turn Off Genius" in the Store menu only "Update Genius"

I cannot get rid of Genius or Genius Mixes and I want it off of my iPad 2 as well. Thank you.

In reply to Peter2300's problem of not being able to delete Genius Playlists on the ipdad. I had this same problem on my ipad2 and my son's ipad mini. In both our cases we had a number of extra Genius Playlists and most of these had no songs in them. We couldn't delete them the normal way by just holding down on them until the little X appeared. We both solved it the same way. On my iPad when I "tap" on the Genius playlist I want to delete, it switches to the screen showing the individual songs in the Genius list (even if it's just a blank playlist), and there is a "save" button near the upper right of the screen. I pressed the Save button and then hit the button on the upper left to return to the list of Playlists. After doing this, the last Genius Playlist displayed could then be deleted the normal way by pressing on it and waiting for the X. I had to repeat this process for each extra Genius playlist I wanted to get rid of (which was all of them b/c on mine they were all blanks). I just repeated the process of viewing each playlist, saving it, going back to the list of Playlists and then deleting the one that appeared last on the screen. So far these Genious Playlists have not returned. Hope this helps.

HT1657 How can I turn off the scrolling movie ads in itunes store?

How can I turn off the scrolling movie ads across the top of the screen when I open the itunes store and am in the movies section?

Thanks varjak paw.
I was afraid this was the case. To the degree that Apple marches down this well-travelled road towards making money by trying to pound customers into submission with flashing ads, etc. that actually serve only to aggravate and drive away at least people like me (28 year user of macs) from both Apple and whatever is being advertised, and indeed get in the way of my being able to efficiently do what is my part of what I always thought was the core of the synergism between Apple and its customers -- them innovating to provide the best tools to help us to be creative and productive, then the company will find itself sharing that space with myriad other companies so bankrupt for ideas and innovation that they have no other possible strategy that to promote mindless consumerism. That does not seem a place of strength for Apple and a complete forfeiting of its unique position. Sad to watch.

How can I turn off my apple I'd on an iPad?

Sam's answer is correct, but WHY would you want to not be connected to the Store, or Facetime, or Messages, or anything which makes the iPad such a great device?

HT2978 how do you turn off genius for apps ios 6 pleasssss help my appstore keeps on crashing

how do you turn off genius for apps ios 6 pleasssss help my appstore keeps on crashing

What you are saying is true but it will not always work. The aap store is dead. Wen I go to the fret urged page I see a white screen. I should be able to scroll down to the bottom and select View Apple ID but can't. This is on my wife's iPad and she thought after she upgraded to iOS 6.0 when it prompted her to turn on Genius that's what caused the trouble and she wanted to turn off Genius. NO CAN DO in App Store.
To turn off Genius I had to go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID xxxxx then click view Apple ID then I can turn Genius off and on.
But the did not fix the problem with the App Store which is still dead.

How can you turn off the braille setting on an iPhone 4s, once on it won't let you slide the phone into use mode to change the settings or do anything?

An alternate method is Accessibility Settings when connected to iTunes. You should be able to turn it off there. I would also check out some of the answers listed to the right of this post and see if they can help.

I can't turn off Genius!

I just can't turn off Genius. I have signed out of the store, I do not use Match so it is not turned on. Turn Off Genius is grayed out.

If the phone does not show up in the device list in iTunes on your computer, you can't back it up anymore.
If your phone is set to back up to iCloud, at least your contact info and photos should have been backed up, if you selected those items to be included in the backup.
Did you try to connect in recovery mode?
iOS: Unable to update or restore

How can i turn off an auto renewing subscription to Netflix ?

How can i turn off an auto renewing subscription to Netflix ?

Interesting turn of phrase. Are you suggesting that Netflix has none standard terms and conditions that could activate penalties if the user casually unsubscribes.
I am not familiar with their terms - I've never had a subscription with Netflix. Personally, I will always check the terms of any business I do business with and know how to cancel before committing to a contract.
Edit: I just took the time to browse through their terms which appear rather straight up:
https://signup.netflix.com/TermsOfUse
From the OP's post, I also did not assume that their subscription was through an iTunes app as a direct subscription was/is available. I do not know if the terms might differ if going through iTunes (which would make sense if Netflix would be losing money by offering their service through iTunes?).

How do I turn off Genius permanently?

I'm using the latest iTunes and iOS 5x on my iPad2 and iPhone 4S. How do I turn off Genius permanently? I don't want Apple to bother combing through my library and making music recommendations. I don't really care what they think I might like to listen to and it's creepy to me to think they monitor my library in order to update Genius. I searched on this topic and two years ago the solution was to go to Store / Turn Off Genius but that is not an option in the latest version of iTunes. Please don't tell me to turn off the Genius sidebar, I already did that. Thanks.

This is the most correct answer, thanks. So I turned off iTunes Match and I got a dialog saying deleting Genius results or something like that. And I get the option to Turn On Genius which of course I don't do. But if I then turn iTunes Match back on, there is no option to turn Genius off. There are only options to Turn Off iTunes Match, Update iTunes Match, or Update Genius. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that if I now want to update iTunes match, today or in the future, Genius will update as well and I'll be right back where I started from. It seems as though using iTunes Match gives Apple license to deliver Genius results as well, without an opportunity to opt out.
This bugs me because even though I know by using iTunes Match Apple knows what's in my library (I bought the vast majority on iTunes anyway), Genius knows what I've been playing and perhaps how I've rated those songs as well. I just don't think that's any of Apples business unless I approve in order to get recommendations from Genius.
