If you have received itunes recent update, 10.0.1 , you know about ping or have seen it. So you know what I am talking about. From the first day I disliked it. It was very intrusive and I did not have a use for it. I used other tools for sharing music that I like. Here is how to get rid of ping itunes.
- Click on ping on the left hand side
2. Go and click on your email in the upper right hand corner of itunes.
3. You should get a prompt to enter your password. Do that.
4. Go and click "Turn Off" it will disable most of the features of ping.
If you followed these steps correctly. Ping should not clutter your itunes and it will only visible on left hand side under "Store".
