iTunes 11 promises a simpler interface for interacting with your media library, but don’t forget that iTunes is also a central hub for working with your iOS devices. If you sync and configure an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iTunes (versus doing it all via iCloud), the new version may initially be confusing.
The Hidden Sidebar — In iTunes 10 and earlier, iOS devices show up in the sidebar at the left side of the screen. When you select a device, the main iTunes window reveals options for choosing which media to sync, which apps to include, and so on.
iTunes 11 doesn’t have a sidebar at least, it doesn’t appear so initially. If you prefer the old look, choose View > Show Sidebar (or press Command-Option-S) to reveal it.
Tasty Popovers — If you’d rather give the new guard a try (and you should), iTunes 11 handles iOS devices in a new Devices popover at the right edge of the toolbar. Clicking it reveals any connected devices along with how much storage is being used and current battery level.
