iTunes 9 – Jailbreakers You are SAFE (Upgrade!!!)
As many of you know on September 9th, 2009 Apple has came out with a new version of iTunes (iTunes 9)… Well along with that Apple also came out with the 3.1 OS Update for the iPhone and a lot of us / you had questions whether the RedSn0w 0.8 would be able to Jailbreak and Unlock the 3.1… The answer was / is “NO”, Dev Team is working on the 3.1 support for Jailbreak and Unlock for the iPhones and iTouches.
Here was another question that came up, this one is more relevant to this post… “If I have a Jailbroken / Unlocked iPhone or iTouch, can I upgrade to iTunes 9?” It was confirmed that YES you can upgrade to iTunes 9 if you’re iPhone is already Jailbroken and Unlocked. I have multiple Jailbroken devices and all of them worked just fine with the new iTunes 9.
So Jailbreakers, go right ahead and upgrade your iTunes to the latest version and enjoy all the new features.
So what’s new in iTunes? Well here is a small list of new features;
iTunes LP
-The best thing to happen to fandom.
The visual experience of the record album returns with iTunes LP. Download select albums and experience a beautifully designed, interactive world right in your iTunes library on a Mac or PC — many are created by the artists. While you listen to your favorite songs, you can dive into animated lyrics and liner notes, watch performance videos, view artist and band photos, and enjoy other bonus materials. And become an even bigger fan.
Home Sharing
A better way to share.
iTunes makes it easier to share music, movies, TV shows, and more. With Home Sharing, you can browse the iTunes libraries of up to five authorized computers in your house, import what you like, and automatically add new purchases made on any of the computers to your own library.
The Redesigned iTunes Store
Check out the new venue.
The world’s #1 music store is even better. With a beautiful redesign and refined navigation, the new iTunes Store makes it easy to explore songs, movies, TV shows, and more.
iTunes Extras
Now featuring: Special features.
When you buy select movies from the iTunes Store, you won’t get just a movie. You’ll get iTunes Extras — a world of special features you can experience right in your iTunes library. Watch interviews and trailers, view photos, and more on your Mac or PC.
Genius Mixes
Perfect mixes come automatically.
Meet Genius Mixes. This new feature searches your iTunes library, finds songs that go great together, and creates multiple mixes you’ll love. All automatically. These mixes are like channels programmed entirely with your music. You may discover songs you never knew you had — and rediscover forgotten favorites.
Improved Syncing
A simpler way to sync.
iTunes brings new, more flexible ways to sync your media from your computer to your iPhone or iPod. And it’s easier to organize all the apps on your iPhone or iPod touch, because now you can do it right in iTunes, right from your computer. Shop the App Store on your computer, iPhone, or iPod touch. Then go to your iTunes library to arrange (and rearrange) your apps and add (or delete) Home screens. iTunes automatically syncs your new Home screens with your iPhone or iPod touch.
Many Other Improvements
Refinements that rock.
iTunes brings you even better ways to manage and share everything in your library. You can make your Smart Playlists even smarter. You can save iTunes Store items you want to purchase later in a new wish list. You can buy ringtones of your favorite songs directly from the iTunes Store on your iPhone and assign a specific song to a contact. And if you’re an avid social networker, it’s easy to tout your favorite music, movies, and TV shows on Facebook and Twitter right from the iTunes Store.
jailbreakers, I believe you are NOT safe downloading itunes 9. I updated itunes and discovere a new block the prevents syncing with your jail broken iPhone with an unauthorized sim card in the phone.
yes, itunes9 is NOT safe downloading if you have a jail broken phone or itouch. Syncing will not be successful at all! Either downgrade your iTunes if you have already installed iTunes9, or start learning your black-belt on Google search!
