One application to purchase and sync things and one application to playback media files. Now that would be sweet.

iOS syncing should just be baked into OS X. Maybe a syncing Menu Extras icon in the Menu Bar and an app or pref pane to manage what you want to sync. I totally agree with people here it makes little sense you have to sync your phone or tablet through a media player.

Why is it when you download and them delete the app on your iPhone, it re-appears on you r PC when you sync the phone?

Probably because you have Automatic Downloads enabled for Apps on your iPhone/iTunes.

I read some pretty good advice online: If you are Jailbreaking your iOS device it may be a good idea to wait and see what the JB community thinks about iTunes 11 before upgrading. It wouldn't be out-of-the-ordinary for Apple to lock down this new version of iTunes to make things harder on Jailbreakers.

* The only untethered JB available is for 5.1.1. If you upgrade your device to iOS 6, you will need to use the SHSH stitch method on the 5.1.1 firmware file for your hardware in order to have iTunes restore your device to 5.1.1. It is possible that iTunes 11 will make that more difficult if not impossible.

* If you are holding out for an iOS 6 untethered JB and/or an A5/iPhone 5 untethered JB then there is a possibility that having iTunes 11 will make that more difficult if not impossible.

Anyway, best to keep v10 installed if you are into Jailbreaking until we hear from Dev Team or the right folks on Twitter (not the wrong folks who consistently spam bogus links).

If you risk it there is a possibility that you will be able to downgrade iTunes if need be.

I think most people know. They just said end of November, and the days are running out quick!

My post was basically a reply to the person who posted before me on the 22nd of November about how he though it would be out before the end of the week, I was simply reminding him that that 23rd-26th was a four day Holiday Weekend. In fact some people like Schools and the U.S. Congress had the full week off last week! Don't know if this Applied to Apple or NOT as I am NOT an Apple Employee. Just FYI.

Did you suggest me I should have paid $899 from apple.ca instead of $279 with Fido and still be stuck with a 60$/month fee for all my cellphone services ?

The reason why I had to pay $649.99 for a 16 GB White/Silver IPhone 5 was due to the fact that I was NOT yet Eligable for a New Contract with Verizon Wireless, and still won't be Eligable until 05/19/2013 (assuming the World does NOT end on 12/21/2012). The actual price for an IPhone 5 with a New 2 Year Contract stats at $199 for 16 GB IPhone 5 and goes up $100 for each Larger Size.

Seeing as the guy who was in charge of Apple Maps just got fired this week perhaps the person directly in charge of iTunes 11 is trying to make sure every little bug is ironed out before release to make sure that doesn't happen to them as well

Apple isn't exactly on top of their game lately. I'm becoming increasingly more annoyed by the fact iLife and iWork haven't seen any significant updates either.

I sometimes feel like that, but then i think.. i'm sulking for something i really don't need, i'm perfectly happy with iWork and iLife and iWork in particular surpasses anything Microsoft can offer on OSX.

We all love updates but sometimes i think we get hung up on it for no reason, but of course everyones needs are different, maybe you are crying out for features the software packages do not have?

Didn't both receive "Retina" updates? I know iLife has received small incremental updates. Idk... the next BIG upgrade Apple will probably want me to pay for the software again.

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary in AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update but that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.

      ALL versions or ALL SUPPORTED versions? Neowin does it again.

    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.

      Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
