The iPad may not be with us in the UK yet but iTunes 9.1, the iPad iTunes update, has arrived bringing with it a selection of new features focused on the iPad and a few other changes besides. Read on to find out what Jobs and co have tweaked in the iPad iTunes update…
The changes flagged up by Apple in the iTunes 9.1 update are the ability to sync music, TV shows and movies to an iPad, book organisation and synching between iBooks and your iTunes library and renaming, rearranging and deleting Genius Mixes.
If you were lucky enough to log an iPad pre-order through Bundlebox before it stopped taking orders, you should be able to test out the iPad iTunes features soon. For the rest of us, there’s just a few tweaks to peek at and the new Genius Mixes features to mess about with.
Genius Mixes in iTunes which give you a automatically generated selection of tunes can now be rearranged, removed or renamed. That’s handy if a Euro-pop Genius Mix has been embarrassing you.
Besides the Genius Mixes changes, iTunes 9.1 has replaced Audiobooks with a more generic Books category where your audiobooks, iBooks purchases and other ebooks will all be stored. You can drag ePub files directly in to iTunes 9.1 and they’ll end up in the Books section. Applications has also been renamed Apps.
You can download the iPad iTunes update, iTunes 9.1, now. Let us know if you’ve spotted any other new features or changes.
