iTunes 8.0.1 Update

Friday, October 3rd, 2008

The iTunes 8.0.1 Update is now available which is a 59MB download. The update features:

  • Seamlessly plays the current song when creating a new Genius playlist.
  • Improves syncing spoken menus to iPod nano.
  • Addresses an issue of deleting HD TV episodes when downloading.
  • Improves checking for updates from the App Store
  • Improves accessibility with VoiceOver.
  • Addresses problems syncing Genius results to iPod.

It also creates this error message on my iPhone when syncing: “The phone iFinger’s iPhone cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (13014)”

Apparently, if I reboot my Mac and possibly iPhone it will fix things.
