Ekona Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Nope, it's actually a much smoother and more crisp design. Like anything, it just takes getting used to. Having a separate page for whatever it is you're browsing is as it should be. I didn't like it at first as I wondered where the hell my device buttons had gone to, but 10 mins later and I was fine.

Ekona Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Eh? On the RHS of the main bar there's a button for devices, click that then click the device in question, and you get to the exact same page as in iTunes10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spursmaddave Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I love it, especially the way when you click on an album the information takes on the colours of the album artwork, very slick and polished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely you just click the Music tab and then scroll down to the track you're after? Or even easier, grab the iPad and swipe right, then enter the search term.

Ahh I see, sorry to hear that. Unfortunately with any new version you loose some underused 'features' I would imagine 99.9% of people have their devices sync'd so don't need to search individual devices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clown Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I like the new iTunes. I just don't like the way the edge of the album cover is faded into the coloured background. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
370Ad Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I hate it, really annoy me when trying to search for albums. The only decent track view is playlist! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clown Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 They're in artist order then you can sort by year or name of album. How is that annoying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldel Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 How do you make the album artwork on the main music screen smaller? There used to be a slider somewhere which could reduce the size of them down, can't find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
