I can't wait to get home and try this as I have been plauged by the smart playlist sorting issue for WAY too long. I had submitted feedback to all of the apple links (iphone, ipod, itunes) along with everyone else.

Currently I am forced to toggle the "live update" option in order for my lists to order properly on the iphone. This completely defeated the point of smart playlists in the first place. Can anyone confirm fix?

Very happy to see these updates.

I hope this takes care of iPod playlists that I create within folders. For some reason the syncing would only allow the iPod to show the playlists, but not the folders I created in iTunes which help to organize them, as it used to.

After reading about Steve Jobs' alleged remarks calling Adobe "lazy" in regards to Flash for the iMac, I was beginning to wonder if Apple wasn't guilty of the same in regards to iTunes/iPod software. :)

So windows gets a 64bit version, but OSX remains 32bit???

Is there a reason for that??

Anyway downloading the update now.

I'll hold off until I hear reports about any impact on jailbroken devices or not.

Glad to see that password memorization issue is fixed. That's been really annoying.
