Can I turn off the Autofill?
Can I turn it off somehow or do I have to install the prior version of iTunes, which I still have on my MacBook.
Thanks.

Darn - that's what I want to do. Ok, thanks guess I'll revert to the prior version.

Malware? Via the iTunes Store? Never heard of that one. There's not been a reported case afaik.
I don't want to have to create no modified smart playlists. *sigh*
I also came here with the intension of finding a way to turn the **** bar off, now at least I'm sure it's impossible. Thanks
This is just the sort of thing I have been dreading. I bought the new IPhone the other day and the phone itself is fantastic. I have however by mistake clicked autofill in itunes and am now watching in utter despair as all my manually and neatly organized tunes are ruined with all the other stuff I don't want to listen to.
Apple, this is SO stupid! Why cant I disable it for goodness sake!? Do Apple really think there are more people out there who would rather use this stupid autofill feature than people who want to choose what they listen to? Someone out there please help me!
Hi to all of you on this topic!
I just changed my phone to an iPhone recently and today, yes like many of you, I hit autofill by mistake! I was not happy when I noticed iTunes was actually filling up my phone with music automatically. After reading this forum I was even more disapointed about not being able to remove the music downloaded to my iPhone.
But I did find the solutions!!! When you device actually shows up in your iTunes, you will notice the "Music" icon just below your phone Devices icon! Click on it and on the right you will notice the whole list of music downloaded to your phone!!!
Simply click in that window and do the "Command + A" to select all and then delete them all. Then either synching happens automatically or you have to do it, either way, resync and all the music will be removed from you phone!
Their you go, and don't ever hit "Autofill" unless you mean to, but now you have a way to remove all the music on your iPHone.
Take care,

Create a new empty playlist. Call it something like "No Autofill" Then on the left of that autofill bar that you and I so despise, select the empty playlist that you just created. From now on, If you inadvertantly click on the autofill button, you will get a pop up that says: "iTunes cannot add any songs to the iPhone “Castor” because the playlist “No Autofill” does not contain any songs."

I suspect the original poster is no longer interested.
