I researched this on Apple support forums and others are having the same issue if you are using a Wacom tablet which I am. Is this something Apple has broken on purpose to make me buy their touch pad? If so, no dice because I need the Wacom stylus for lots of things requiring precise movements (it is the greatest for dragging) and will not trade that for anything. I have written a message to Wacom customer service asking if they plan a driver upgrade. For all I know, maybe the tablet would not work at all in Lion which I am so thankful I did not get. Still ok with Snow Leopard except, of course, for iTunes.

My non-Wacom tablet is working fine with iTunes 10.4 in OS X 10.6.8. I just dragged a local playlist onto my iPhone and it started syncing it immediately. Now I need to get it off of there..
iTunes auto-complete is still working here, too. It was annoying the heck out of me just last night while trying to type a new album name that has some capital letters, yet it insisted on completing it as a different album, wiping out what I had typed. I ended up typing it into the Comments box, then copy-pasting.
Before you get too deep in Apple conspiracy theories, try unplugging the Wacom and see if that fixes the auto-complete issue as well. If so, Wacom has an update to push.
--------------------------
Glenn, autocomplete does not work on my Macbook Pro either since the iTunes upgrade. Many people in the Apple support forum are having the same problem. The Wacom tablet works on the iMac with all my other programs except for the new version of iTunes. Yes, I have unplugged it and re-plugged it and that does not fix autocomplete. I know that your autocomplete is still working, even though you wish it would not. Wacom is aware of the issue and eventually something may get done there. In the meantime, I have ordered a trackball to plug into the iMac so can drag with that when it comes, or so I hope. Perhaps it will not like the trackball either.
