iTunes Sync v1.4.0 Released

iTunes Sync

iTunes Sync 1.4.0 has been released and it’s jam packed full of changes. The biggest change in this new release is that iTunes Sync can now check for updates on program startup, if you so desire. The auto-update check is enabled by default but can be easily disabled using the system tray menu. The other big change is the re-design of the synchronize window (again). I have merged the “Select a Drive” window with the sync window, so that you can get your music sync’d easier, with less clicks.

Here is a complete rundown on the changes:

  • Automatic update checking at startup (defaults to enabled, but can be disabled if desired)
  • Double-click the system tray icon to open the synchronize window
  • Fixed the empty notification balloon for device insert/removal when the volume label is blank
  • Added 5 new folder structures:
    • \ Album \ Artist \ # - Song.mp3
    • \ Artist \ # - Song.mp3
    • \ Album \ # - Song.mp3
    • \ Genre \ Artist - # - Song.mp3
    • \ Genre \ Artist \ # - Song.mp3
  • Doesn’t allow duplicate MP3 player names anymore
  • Changed “unknown” filenames to be more descriptive (example: “unknown artist” or “unknown album”)
  • Got rid of the “Choose a Drive” window and moved it to a drop-down in the synchronize window for quicker drive selection
  • Saves the last used MP3 player name and selected it automatically when opening the synchronize window
  • Saves the volume name that was last used for each MP3 player and selects it automatically when selecting that MP3 player in the synchronize window
  • Added a “Language” option to the system tray menu in preparation for localization support (currently only has English as an option though)
  • Now detects and truncates long files (over 240 characters) to prevent errors when trying to copy the file the MP3 player

Download it and enjoy it’s delicious fat-free flavour today!
