Song jumping shortcuts in the iTunes info window
Authored by: osxpounder on Mar 10, '05 03:02:59PM

I'm so glad you mentioned the CMD-1 thru CMD-4 shortcuts again; I didn't know about them til now and I do a lot of Get Info editing on my home music library since getting my Griffin radioSHARK [which does a fair job, now that they've updated their software to permit "Weekly" scheduled recordings]. I hate reaching for the mouse when I'm doing typing-intensive work such as editing the fields in the Get Info area of iTunes. Thanks!

Another possibly useful tip:

When I delete a song from iTunes, I often want to answer "Yes", that I DO want to send it to the Trash. I tried the tab key first, but it doesn't move focus to the Yes button. I tried CTRL plus various F keys [like CTRL-F7], but that didn't work.

Merely typing the "y" key worked, though.

I thought you would've enabled tabbing through Full Keyboard Access, but it seems not. Another little UI-glitch Apple should fix..

It's probably possible to change the default - by editing the relevant NIB file - there is a hint on here that should give you the idea on how to do it - it's just finding the correct NIB to edit.

Okay, this won't work, as iTunes doesn't use a NIB file for storing this...:-(
