How do I turn off this Genius thing? I have had the iPhone 3G for several months and no problems. No I select an artist and album. The first song plays, no problem. Then the next song is some other artist on another album. It appears to have generated a Genius play list and when I select the album it goes to the play list. Specifically I select a Neil Young album the next song is Springsteen. Looking at the list there is a list of 2 songs that includes Young, Springsteen, Crocker, and others. I appear not to have the problem when selecting other artists.
Now that you've posted the least helpful thing possible, can you answer the question? That PDF does not have any info about disabling genius, only how to use it.
After just looking at my iPod on the iPhone (3G), after I start a song in an album, I notice the Genius icon on the center of the screen. Check to see if that is highlighted. That may do it, I'm not sure, but I don't know a lot more about the Genius as I never use it either.
Based on the info provided with this link, there doesn't appear to be a way yo disable the Genius feature on the iPhone after it is enabled. Since this won't be enabled on the iPhone unless it is enabled with iTunes, you can try disabling Genius with iTunes followed by a sync.
