Google search from within iTunes
This has nothing to do with iTunes. There is a service built into OS X entitled "Search with Google" which works with any selected text. It also by default has the shortcut of Command-Shift-L assigned to it. You can do this with any highlighted text in any app.

Pitiful. Is someone supposed to check hints before they are published?

Yeah, me too. "What happened" is that the site was purchased by the IDG Consumer & SMB group, so it's now about making gobs of money as opposed to providing a serious service.

Even better, this has nothing to do with GoOgle. The system service uses whatever search engine you have defined as your preferred search engine in Safari. Mine says Search With Bing.

This isn't new. Also, it works across the OS with only a few exceptions which don't follow Apple's programming guides.

For someone who can't make it here too often or might be newer than some of you I don't see a problem with this tip being posted. I can understand those who have followed this daily being upset about this though. Perhaps the site would serve it's viewers best to have an area where only new tips are posted for folks like you who aren't happy and have the main area where not only new tips are posted but re-circulate old tips for those people I mentioned earlier in this post. Of course the items re-circulated would need to be reviewed as to whether they still apply. No one wants to see an OSX 10.4 tip that no longer applies.

If you go to System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts tab then Services in the left hand pane, you'll see this option. It's part of the OS, which you should explore more thoroughly, especially System Preferences. |
