   iTunes 11.0.1

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   With the release of iTunes 11.0.1, Apple rectifies one of the glaring
   omissions of its initial release ' displaying duplicates (just one of
   the excised features noted in '[1]iTunes 11: The Features Apple
   Removed, and Alternatives,' 4 December 2012). Previously found in the
   File menu, the new Show Duplicate Items command has now been shifted to
   the View menu. Another complaint of iTunes 11, especially for those
   with large music libraries, was its frustratingly slow search. (In our
   library of over 41,000 songs, just typing the first character of a
   query in the search field would bring up Mac OS X's spinning beach ball
   for 5 to 6 seconds.) Apple promises that iTunes 11.0.1 will be more
   responsive when searching through larger libraries, and this does seem
   to be the case in our initial tests. The update also fixes a couple of
   bugs: one where new purchases in iCloud wouldn't show up in libraries
   with iTunes Match turned on and another where the AirPlay button didn't
   appear as expected. You can download the new release via Software
   Update. (Free, 198 MB)
