New iTunes 9.0 Problems

[ori-STUDFARM]

iTunes 9.0 wouldn’t sync my podcasts playlist to my iPod classic. I searched online and found a solution.

It was set up to sync all podcasts to my ipod. Podcasts appeared, but not the playlists. I have had to set it up as sync selected podcasts only and then manually check every podcast I subscribe to. It now works, but I must remember to check any new podcasts I subscribe to!

Wish I hadn’t upgraded now……….

I’ve also heard people say that thier “most listened to” playlist has reset aswell, though mine is fine.

What a shower.

I keep being told how great Apple are and that I must get a Mac. I can’t afford a Mac and keep looking at how much PC you can buy for that sort of money.

Am I an idiot for thinking that Mac ain’t all that!? (BTW I know I’m an idiot, but at least let it be for something other than disliking Apple)

I haven’t updated, I never do when it’s a X.0 update and I would advise everyone else not to. God I’m so good it stings.

Oh, fucking hell, I’ve just installed this tonight because I’ve heard the smart playlists have been improved (I’d started using them more on my Classic, only to find that they DON’T ACTUALLY DO WHAT THEY SAY THEY DO, BECAUSE THEY DON’T UPDATE DYNAMICALLY ON THE DEVICE WITHOUT SYNCING). But fucking hell. Fucking Apple fucks.

Studfarm, you are not an idiot for thinking Macs aren’t all that, you are ENTIRELY CORRECT. Just don’t let John come anywhere near this thread.

Macs are better than PCs. If you’ve got a shit PC. If you’ve got anything remotely better than an absolute chuck that right in the fucking bin piece of plastic bollocks PC then, no, Macs are NOT better than PCs.

I can’t get over what a piece of shit the Windows version of iTunes is, but then I’ve heard it’s far better when running on a Mac. Which is shit, obviously, but Microsoft aren’t any better at porting, either.

I like PCs because they’re cheap by comparison and I know Windows like the back of my hand and my brain just cannot adapt to OSX, no matter how much I use it.

I know exactly what you mean, though I’ve not been on a Mac for a couple of years. After being so used to a PC it’s like reaching down and finding a fanny there. Very disconcerting.

Yeah, but you appear to have gotten used to it.

Im on a mac right now at a friends house, and it’s a piece of shit. Smelly shit*.

*note: it doesn’t smell really. But it is shit.
