Latest version of iTunes GUI and navigation is horrible

Are the great designers at Apple on recreational drugs these days?
Why the constant change to the navigation interface? Relearning how to use iTunes shouldn't be a second job without income three times a year. i don't have time to put up with this. Is there a way to restore previous interfaces?
This isn't me being stupid, but I have to rewrite macros that call iTunes (Interviews and recordings) from within other programs every time the iTunes development team decides to dumb-it-down for the hoi polloi.
Arrrgh.

  • I plugged my ipod nano 6th gen in to the latest version of itunes today and as soon as i plugged it it it turned on automatically as it should when i came back to it 5 mins later, picked it up and it felt warm and it wouldnt turn on. what should i do?

    I have the same problem and can't seem to figure out what the problem is. I rebuilt my iTunes library and still my 6G nano crahes whenever I load an AAC tune onto it.  MP3s and podcasts all work fine, it's just the AACs... 
    Just *loading* an AAC song will cause the Nano 6G to reboot as soon as it disconnects from Itunes. It will then reboot a few times and then go into recovery mode. :-(

  • Downloaded the latest version of iTunes&quicktime and can't connect iphone

    I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and Quicktime but now when I tried to connect my iPhone 3Gs it says I must uninstall iTunes and mobile device support and then reinstall them. When I try uninstalling mobile device support it says "Error while installing"
    How do I fix this?

    When I try uninstalling mobile device support it says "Error while installing"
    Let's try the following procedure first.
    Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from Microsoft:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any *Apple Mobile Device Support* entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly? If so, do you get recognition for the iPhone this time around?

    Hey there kmliby,
    It sounds like you are getting an error message when trying to open iTunes. Depending on the version of your Windows version, I recommend either of these 2 articles to help resolve launch issues.

    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Itunes, but it still gets hung up when trying to access the Itunes Store from the Itunes program.
    I've been unable to register the new Nano or sync it with my library.

    Many thanks.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

  • What is the latest version of itunes? and where do i find what version i have on my computer?

    I am trying to download my LP's to itunes using the ION Profile Pro. When I try to install the software it wants itunes to download to a 64 bit encryption. I have a 32 bit.  How do i tell itunes to download to 64?  I know i can do this by downloading itunes again, but it looks like i'll have to open another account.

  • I downloaded the latest version of Itunes and now half of my purchased songs lost there artwork and can't be transfered to any devices do to it saying the info cannot be found ! what do I do now ?

    i installed the latest version of Itunes yesterday and when I looked at my library most of my songs that i purchased lost there artwork and cannot be trnasfered to any device saying that the info cannot be located. what should i do ?

    Plug your iPod into your computer, it will begin to sync. Now check to see if the playlists have been added.
    If not, go to the songs tab under your iPod when it is connected to iTunes, Unless you have checked "Sync all songs (or something to those words)" you should have an option on what you can put on your iPod. Make sure to check the playlists that you want on your iPod.

  • My new 8th gen iPod nano is 'not recognized' by my computer. My computer runs on Windows 7, and I've installed and updated the latest versions of itunes etc, but still to no avail! I've tried different usb ports, troubleshooting...

    My computer runs on Windows 7, and I've installed and updated the latest versions of itunes etc, but still to no avail! I've tried different usb ports, troubleshooting, etc... But it still says "One of the USB decuces arrached to this omputer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it".
    The iPod is brand new, sent to me by Apple as part of the 1st gen replacement programme. I've been using the cable that came with the 1st gen iPod (I bought the first gen second hand) It always worked on my computer with the 1st gen iPod. So I was wondering, do you think I need to replace my cable in order for my PC to recognize my iPod or is it something else?
    Thanks

    Try a different cable. And are you connecting directly to your computer or through a USB hub?

  • I just downloaded latest version of Itunes and now my Ipod does not show up when I connect to Itunes, I just downloaded latest version of Itunes and now my Ipod does not show up when I connect to Itunes

    I recently downloaded the latest version of Itunes.  As soon as that was finalized, my Ipod stopped showing up on the screen when I was in Itunes and I can't sync new songs and audiobooks to it.  How do I get my Ipod to work again?  It charges up and plays just fine, it will not sync or update with Itunes.  There is nothing showing on Itunes that I can manually sync it, either.  That option can't be clicked on.  I have no other devices other than the Ipod that syncs with Itunes now, I used to have an Iphone, but I don't anymore

  • While importing and burning some CDs, my entire library has disappeared.  Also, there no longer is a "burn file to disc" command in the File menu.  I have downloaded the latest version of itunes which restored only tracks I bought from the iTunes store.

    Also, the "burn playlist to disc" command has disappeared from the File options.  I downloaded the latest version of iTunes but that only restored tracks I'd bought from the iTunes store.  I also tried setting up another logon.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be copied & renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to an earlier state. Look for a recent .tmp file that is similar in size to the .itl files in the Previous iTunes Libraries folder. If it has happened repeatedly you may want the earliest such file generated since the last iTunes upgrade.
    If applicable, see iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    I've noticed more of these missing library posts of late and a common factor to most since I started asking is AVG Anti-Virus. It seems in some cases it might be at least part of the reason why the library file disappears. Try excluding the iTunes folder from any AV scanning process.

  • On my mac iBook computer it will not let me update to the latest version of iTunes and I can no longer sync my phone, which is on ios7, what do I do?

    So I have a Mac iBook and it says I'm on the latest version of iTunes but when I plug in my iPhone it says that I need a newer version And I want to move music onto my phone, what do I do?

    If you have an iBook G4, (PPC) you can't do much.
    But if that is a MacBook (intel) you may be able to
    upgrade the OS X, if the hardware is up to it...
    Since there were about nine different build models
    of MacBook (not powerpc iBook) to identify what
    one you have would be the first step to knowing
    what OS X and RAM upgrades it could use.
    If the computer is not already at OS X 10.6.8,
    it can't go online to get or use OS X 10.7.5. So,
    when you more accurately describe the 'Book,
    detailed information is available.
    When you find the serial number, there is a web
    page that can be used to identify by serial no.
    http://www.powerbookmedic.com/identify-mac-serial.php
    That'd be a first step. Or even the Model number
    which should be visible on the outer case by hinge.
    Good luck & happy computing!
