No genius in Itunes 11.1

What happened to this function? What a loss if Itunes eliminated it:(

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 to Disable Genius in iTunes (with iTunes Match ON)

So i just got iTunes Match, but noticed Genius turned itself back on (i've always had it disabled, it's so annoying). I also notice that now iTunes takes forever to load (i have a SSD, and it used to instantly pop up). If i delete the "iTunes Library Genius.itdb" file (which is over 50 megs large) iTunes pops right up instantly like it did before, but then as soon as it does it takes about 30 seconds or so to "gathering information about your iTunes library".
So how do i disable Genius like it used to be? I want to keep iTunes Match on, i just don't want Genius or any of it's useless mixes or playlists or sluggishly large crap files.
For reference, I'm running the latest version of iTunes (10.6.3.25)

Hi,
You need genius for iTunes match.

It started after I bought a new PC, everything worked fine at the old one.

Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

Can't use genius with iTunes Match?

I signed up for iTunes Match today and on my iPhone I can no longer find the option to make a genius playlist. The icon is no longer in the center of the song bar. Help please.

in the HELP menu in iTunes I found this, note the last sentence:
Play a Genius playlist or Genius Mix
iTunes can create playlists—called “Genius playlists”—from songs in your library that go great together.
In addition to creating playlists based on particular songs, iTunes can turn your library into a set of commercial-free radio stations playing your favorite music from your library. This is called a “Genius Mix.”
To create Genius playlists and Genius Mixes, iTunes uses anonymous information about your library and other iTunes libraries.
To create Genius playlists and use Genius Mixes, you must turn on Genius, be connected to the Internet, and have an Apple ID. Genius is a free service.
Note: If you subscribe to iTunes Match, Genius is turned off.

You setup your Apple ID here:
https://appleid.apple.com

While reviewing the Genius Recommendations, iTunes is not letting me listen to the sample song. I click on the play icon and nothing happens.

While reviewing the Genius recommendations, iTunes is not responding to my mouse click on the play icon to listen to a sample of the song.

From my knowledge the computer just Syncs to the phone not iCloud..
It can update & restore etc..
iCloud is just a back up service for the info on your phone..
Have you tried doing a Factory Settings via iTunes..Then a restore.

ITunes displays Genius "Accessing iTunes store..." message continuously

My iTunes (v 11.3.1 ) continuously displays the message "Genius, Accessing iTunes store..."
I'm able to access the iTunes store and complete purchase transactions so it's odd that the Genius function cannot reach the iTunes store.
Any ideas about what's causing this and how to fix it?

Hi there Steve in Seattle,
While you can still connect to the iTunes, you may want to run through the troubleshooting steps outlined in the article below.

Hello Zach,
I understand that you have been unable to authorize the purchases on
your iTunes account "[email protected]" due to three previous
account names not authorizing for you. I am sorry to hear about this
Zach. I can certainly appreciate how eager you must be to have this
resolved. My name is Liz, and I will be more than happy to help you
with this today!
If your computer is not currently authorized to play your previous
account name's purchases, when you double-click an item you
purchased before you renamed the account, the authorization dialog
may show the old account name. If this happens, you will need to
remove the old account name from the account name field, type the
new account name, and click Authorize. This authorizes your computer
to play the account's purchases.
If you are unsure about which account was used to purchase a
particular item, follow these steps:
1) Control-click (or right-click) the item in your iTunes Library.
2) Choose Get Info from the menu that appears.
3) Click the Summary tab. The account name will be listed on the
right.
If you need further assistance in locating the current account name,
please reply with the account name listed in your items' Summary
tab. In addition, please include the order number for those items if
possible.
You can locate order numbers by following these instructions on
reviewing your purchase history:

I sincerely hope that this helps. Please do not hesitate to let me
know if you have any further questions or concerns. I will be happy
to help. I appreciate your patience.

Is there an easy way to turn off Genius in itunes 10.6.1?

I have Genius playlists on my ipad2 that I do not want. I would like to get rid of all Genius suggestions and have viewed many suggestions; one being to go to the store tab and click turn off genius. This option is not available it only gives the option 'Update Genius'. I recently joined itunes Match and this seems to automatically think that you want to have Genius. Can someone help me in gettng rid of Genius. Thanks in advance.

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.

Are there any costs related to using Genius on itunes?

hey i was thinking of setting up genius and i wanted to make sure that there werent going to be any charges with it... so i was just wondering if there was?

I just now set it up myself to verify. Nowhere does it mention fees. Just click on the Genius menu in the left-hand window of iTunes to get started.

How do i enable genius in itunes 10
