Oooh:

the new folder structure comes with this other new folder, Automatically Add to iTunes. It’s a folder with a pre-configured folder action, such that any media file you drop in there will be instantly added to iTunes

Actually using this feature would entail quite a radical change to the way I manage music in my house. But maybe itunes 9 and its sharing features justify this change..

Fail.

created 22 July 2008 in notes tagged iphone and itunes.

Suddenly, the iTunes Application store is awash with updates for all my apps. The App Store application on the phone is also reporting updates. For different apps. The App Store application on the phone shows me release notes. The iTunes version doesn’t seem to have any way of seeing release notes. The iTunes version keeps complaining that I’ve bought this app already when downloading updates. And the interface keeps displaying messages about ‘purchasing..’ which makes me worry that I’m spending money. And the screen shot above isn’t exactly reassuring.

And now I’ve downloaded all these ‘updates’, I still have the same version numbers of everything on the phone. All the app bundles are the same size. I’ve downloaded the exact same apps again, except that now iTunes isn’t prompting me to download updates any more.

Using the iPhone-based app store actually updates the app. Except that far fewer apps are listed in the iPhone app store than are listed in iTunes.

So, yes. Feels slightly rushed, this.

yay, blech documented his remove iTunes playlist work. Interesting that the ID property is now a string - implies that there’s active development in apple on interfaces that that use this property..

Useful applescript to copy cover art from the iTunes DB into the ID3 tag. Also links to GST, delicioused previously.

Interestingmostly because it’ll auto-fetch cover art and add it to the id3 tag. Nifty.

serve an itunes music database as an RSS feed. The PSP is a scary example of ‘give an inch, they’ll abuse it to stream music to their stereos wirelessly’ - even the incredibly limited open capabilities Sony have given the device are used for clever stuff.
