iTunes 9.2.1

iTunes version 9.2.1 is available for download today. The latest version features various bug, stability, and performance fixes.

I have been having trouble dragging and dropping songs on my iPhone 3G. Out of 12 songs I tried to upload to my phone , only about 8 of the songs were on there. I tried numerous times to get the songs on my phone but no luck. Hopefully this update will fix that issue. I will keep you posted.


iTunes 9.2.1 provides a number of important bug fixes, including:

• Addresses minor issues with dragging and dropping items
• Addresses a performance issue when first syncing to some devices with iTunes 9.2
• Addresses an issue upgrading to iOS 4 on an iPhone or iPod touch with encrypted back-ups
• Addresses other issues that improve stability and performance


I received this in my email inbox today:

Beginning July 22, you will need to use Application Loader to submit your binary to iTunes Connect. Binary uploads will no longer be accepted through the iTunes Connect interface on that date.

Application Loader offers fast uploading, a more stable connection, and early validation warnings. You can now also submit binaries that contain In App Purchase using Application Loader. Make sure the status of your app in iTunes Connect is Waiting for Upload before you submit your binary through Application Loader.

If you have installed iPhone SDK 3.2 or later, you can access Application Loader from the Utilities folder (/Developer/Applications/Utilities/Application Loader.app). You can also download Application Loader from iTunes Connect.

If you have any questions regarding Application Loader, please review our Frequently Asked Questions

or utilize the Contact Us

system on iTunes Connect.

Best regards,

iTunes Connect Support
