itunes v12.0.1.26 No Sidebar

[Toolman]

What is Apple thinking, with this New itunes version 12.0.1.26!

They have finally gone & removed the Sidebar for good.
Think they must have put the team responsible for the woeful 'Podcasts' App in charge of itunes :-(

If anyone else is struggling with this, there is a thread here which explains how to cope with this problem.

I can't even find a support email address to complain to.
Think this is the final straw for me, though.

I would consider myself reasonably PC literate but itunes from the start has frustrated the beJesus out of me. I can't do simple things without looking for help from forums etc. I'd be over the moon if the bloody thing just disappeared to be replaced by decent software capable of interrogating IMO the worst operating system on a phone invented. I have to use an Iphone for work but I can't wait for the company to see the error of the ways and go Android. The sidebar was the only way I knew how to get round

You can make it look almost like it did if you select Music from the left, Playlists from the middle and songs from the right

I like the new look personally ... each to their own i guess

I stopped using Itunes years ago, that program is the devil.

Use media monkey. Its free and will manage media on any apple device for you.

Pay for it and it will automatically convert videos to the correct file formats to go onto your ipod, automatically update MP3 tags and all sorts of awesome jiggery pokery.

I have this latest version of iTunes, and the sidebar is all there, just as it's always been.
