ITUNES 11!!
Has anyone upgraded this?
I have eventually found how to put back the sidebar which Apple seems to think is irrelevant (all DJ software use this), but am struggling to make even one playlist as its all coming up with artist/song etc. Its very confusing and I can seem to find the songs I want. i can but its taking ages as its coming up with all the other irrelevant stuff.
I have a gig tonight, Sunday and of course Monday so need it. Is there anyone who knows how to reinstall the old search mechanism that just puts all relevant criteria in the music bit.
I will reinstall 10 tomorrow if not!! The last one worked fine without all this new crap they have added.
Any help appreciated. I can't see me getting used to this as it has been designed for home users and to make more purchases, but interacting more.
Big thumbs down Apple.

found 11 very strange at first but starting to get used to it now.
making playlist is quite easy once you get used to the playlist window on the right.

Here are some other problems - lots of unhappy people
i am sure lots of it is just a matter of getting used to it, but not being able to actively search and drag and drop like I used to is a big problem.

Luckily Serato still reads it as it used to. I would be on my iPad otherwise.
How do you add things to existing playlists? like the old way of whittling it all down in to a nice list and drag and dropping?

totally ar*e about
I agree, and traktor isn't even recognising the itunes library so can't put things into traktor as I used to!
Its a bit of a faff compared to the way I used to drag and drop. A playlist of 30 could be formulated in a minute (assuming you have the tracks) but now the search function is subdividing genre, artist etc. it was much easier when it scanned for all of these and put them in a nice concise list to drag and drop as you please.
I have opened djay and found the tracks that way and dragged sand dropped into iTunes almost replicating the old system.
I am still down grading if thats possible, before they mess up the serato playlist functions too.

I'm annoyed with the create new window disappearing - so hard to compare a CD track listing with what you already have on iTunes

It tunes out you have to press return to see the original search result bit which suits me.
It did however carry on playing a track last night after I unticked it, which was a bit annoying as it did not suit the function.
I can live with that though. The search thing was the biggest problem.

Jem - Thanks but how does that differ from selecting 'Music' at the very top of the Library? Seems the same from my point of view.
