Use Safari to bookmark shared iTunes4 music
Authored by: bluehz on May 01, '03 11:34:57AM
Here's another interesting new URL:

Try Me!

It links directly to the Apple Music Store Search!

Format I
itms://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZSearch.woa/wa/advancedSearchResults?searchTermHere

Where search term can be any term below in any order:
songTerm - song title
artistTerm - artist name
albumTerm - album name
composerTerm - composer name

Example:
itms://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZSearch.woa/wa/advancedSearchResults?artistTerm=Bob Dylan&albumTerm=Blood On The Tracks

Format II
A generic search for all fields uses this form:
itms://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZSearch.woa/wa/search?term=Muddy Waters

Okay, this is interesting. I clicked on your "try this" link, which
(according to the text at the bottom of my Safari window) is a
search for Jimi Hendrix. iTunes came to the front, opened up a
browsing window, and took me directly to...Violent Femmes!

Did anyone else get Violent Femmes instead of Hendrix from
this link?

Nope, definitely pulled up a search on artist for Jimi.

i saw that one should insert a %20 where there are blanks in a query term

That odd - when I click on it - go right to page listing Hendrix
tunes. Yes - the %20 is a good idea, but from my experience
with Safari - you can just use standard "Jimi Hendrix" and it fills
in the entities (%20) for you. Sorry about that guys.

I was very frustrated when posting anyway - I spent over 45
mins trying to get that dang hint printed and no matter what I
do - Hints keeps hard wrapping my typing. I have no idea what
is causing it - but it wreaks havoc on entering code, I finally had
to resort to using Lynx in the terminal to get it entered properly.
You'll notice THIS post hard wrapped - extending just slightly
below the "i" in the main "MacOSXHints" graphic in the top left
corner of the page.

seekbus and feste - what browser are you using? I notice that
your posts are hard wrapped also.
