Is it me? Or couldn't the "More Like This" links be improved?

I already sent feedback to Apple on this.
But I have noticed that links in the "More Like This" section isn't that useful as they are not completely and always related to the subject at hand. Don't you think it can be indexed a little better?
I know it might be pointless even writing this, but I was wondering if it was just me or if anyone else has been running into this problem.

I was responding to this from the  OP
"SIM=Failure/Invalid SIM" huh? That's what shows up. Messed up programming.
and explaining why that was in the more like this box.  Not all searches in any database turn up what we would like but it is a It is a valid hit for his question.
As I wrote I was not defending the search here in fact one of my first posts way back when was asking about the lack of decent search. What  I was told then and what I tell posters now is to use Google and restrict the search to ASC. You'll get much better results.

  • Why doesn't the "more like this" section offer suggestions anymore in the netflix app?

    In the netflix app there is an area labeled "More like this" and it usually show suggestions of other movies.  After the last ATV update, it just shows "More like this..." but it doesn't show any movie suggestions.  When I spoke with netflix, they said the problem was with Apple since they design the netflix app.

    I would also like to know why the suggestions are missing.  It seems to work when you select movies outside netflix.

  • More Like This no more?

    For a while now, the "More Like This" section doesn't seem to be very helpul. Many posts (most for new questions) don't have any suggestions at all. This is especially strange as when you input the question in the search field, plenty of related discussions are found.
    For the minority that has suggestions listed, they don't seem to be very appropriate. Almost as if just a single word was picked from the question and that's what the suggestions were based on.
    The More Like This list used to be very useful in referring people to the right area and oft-discussed topics. What happened? Did Apple change the search logarithm that doesn't work, or are they in the process of transitioning to something better ,and this is just a temporary condition?

    I answered a post a few minutes ago illustrating exactly why 'more like this' will be a facility we shall miss.   And on another section I noticed a 'more like this' that was totally out of sync with the subject matter.
    There's no rhyme or reason to it and hopefully someone higher up will take notice.  
    One other benefit is that he who posts a question will then be presented with many pertinent and alternate viewpoints that can resolve the problem even when his original post has not been responded to.

  • More like this?  Bwhahaha.

    The "More Like This" on the right side need to be fine-tuned to only give useful posts. At the very least, posts that are recent and have solved answers should start the list.
    I keep seeing this post
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/8334632#8334632
    which is from 2008, is unsolved, and has no replies. It really shouldn't be at the top of the "More Like This" list for questions regarding moving itunes libraries.

    Notice that 3 out of the 5 items in the More Like This widget lead to topics in the Lounge which are not viewable by the vast majority of members.
    And, I see the same 5 links whether I'm logged in or not (which, I'm pretty sure, means that everyone sees them).
    When I am not logged in and click on those Lounge-bound links, I hit two login pages and one redirect loop error page. Who knows what logged in L1-5 members see when they try those links? Three redirect loop error pages? They certainly never get to see the Lounge topics....
    Beyond this, I've actually been surprised at how relevant most of the items in the More Like This widget have been.

  • Why would it state under the "more about this mac" that i already have10.8.3 and then in the app store say i need to "resume" do you know what i mean? is it possible i already did download mountain lion entirely once? I am confused and don't want it twice

    why would it state under the "more about this mac" that i already have10.8.3 and then in the app store say i need to "resume" do you know what i mean? is it possible i already did download mountain lion entirely once? I am confused and don't want it twice

    This is cause by the way the App Store checks to see if an application is installed on your system.
    Basically when an app is installed it is in the Applications folder and this is where the MAS looks for them. So it looks at your purchase history for the apps you bought and looks in the Applications folder to see if they are installed. If an app is in your purchase history but not in the Applications folder the MAS says you need to install it.
    For normal apps this works fine but the OS doesn;t install into the Applications folder. So the MAS sees you have Mountain Lion in your purchase history but it's not in the Applications folder and so it says you need to download it.
    Hopefully one of these days Apple wil fix this.

  • Where can I find all the songs under Play More Like This?

    I accidentally made another station that I already had, I was listening and found a song that I liked. I listed it under Play More Like This, after I noticed I had recreated the same station I deleted the newer station. As I looked for the song this morning, I could not find it under my play history and of course I could not view the Play More Like This on iTunes from computer under the station it was played hence it was deleted. If there is any help for this, it would be greatly appreciated.

  • Why doesn't my iTunes Radio give me the option to customize stations using "play more like this" and "never play this" in the star menu?

    Why doesn't my iTunes Radio give me the option to customize stations using "play more like this" and "never play this" in the star menu?

    You can only "play more like this" on your custom stations. The pre-programmed ones cannot be altered, at least to my understanding

  • HT5848 Cannot tap "play more like this" or "never play this again"!

    On my iPhone 5 in the iTunes Radio page when I tap on the star I cannot tap the options to "play more like this" or to "never play this again". Is anyone else having this problem/can someone help me out? Thanks!!

    I have this same problem; however, I've always ONLY been able to "play more like this" on the PRESET stations; otherwise, how could you have any 'new music' to select that you may want to hear more songs like the one you just heard and 'play more like this."  If you could only choose your OWN music to "play more like this," it doesn't make sense why you would choose your own music? 
    So, I've been able to choose  "play more like this," ONLY on the preset stations, but sometimes they are grayed out and I cannot select that option.

  • ITunes Radio-Play more like this

    IS it possible to select 'play more like this' or 'never play again' with the volume controller, without asking Siri?

    I know this isn't right but you can ask her to do that if you want to.

  • HT5848 Max more like this on iTunes Radio?

    Is there a max number of "play more like this" options you can add? I have about 50 and now the station won't play.

    Same problem, although my list wasn't even 50 long.  Like about 30, and the station stopped playing.  I could back some out, but I don't even know how many is necessary.  And just deleting and retrying is 1) tedious, and 2) not guaranteed to work.  iTunes was all messed up and wouldn't play ANY station properly when it first happened.
    Not even restarting iTunes helped.  I had to REBOOT, for cryin' out loud!  But that still only permitted my other stations to work.
    Removing one artist at a time might also require restarting iTunes, or even rebooting, just to test the limit.
    Not cool, Apple.  I'm not wasting my time doing that.
    If there is a limit, the "+" button should grey out or even disappear when you get to the limit...

    You are exporting field v_fname, not importing it.  The field v_fname isn't for the file name anyway; field p_fname is for the file name. You also need to pass your file name to the function module GUI_DOWNLOAD for it to work.
